Interesting and unique game ideas are hard to come by.
Most of the time they are something familiar with a twist.Some of the funnest games are not like this.I played thisgame just now. Since bbcode isn't working right now, here is the link: http://www.addictinggames.com/tmc.htmlIt's fun. Not much to do, but it's fun, simple, and unique. It's a quick game to beat, but it's one you would play through because it's new and interesting. Looking for inspiration from other games with new ideas is a good thing. I'm making a clone of an old school game right now and I'm also making a point and click game. Both of these are heavily covered game genres. Too heavily covered. I'm going to take a break from game making when I finish these to find something that hasn't been done before. These are the kinds of games I like most. Especially if they are polished and neat.On a side note, I noticed lot's of people talking about ClassixArcade, a new member. I'll admit he gets on my nerves sometimes too, but I think he's just adjusting. It's hard to fit into with one of the best game maker communities :DBut seriously. a word of advice Classix, don't make like 15 posts in one blog. If I'm correct, you got your post count up to 100 in about 2 days. Come on! Who does that?It's become tradition for me (and most of 64d) to post some questions at the end of a blog. Also, about my banner…It's temporary. And it's probably annoying, I know. I hope it melts your eyeballs. I can shoot acid out of my eyes.1. How many languages do you speak?2. Are you learning one?3. What was the biggest number of games you worked on at one time.Yeah, not many questions. Good morning/afternoon/evening/night to you all.
1. I speak English and I know some French,
2, No. I was last year and I was one mark off an A in my GCSE exam in French. =[3. One.1) One language, English.
2) Nope3) >100, although many i havn't opened for months/years.1)English, some french
2)Yes, french, but only until I reach the end of my GSCE course.3)'worked on'? What is this 'work'? (Also, 3, I'd say)1) Dutch, Php, Html, Css, Javascript, C++, VB, PureBasic, GML…
2) Perl.3) One at a time.^Roy
Haha, beat me yo it. I can't believe no one wrote the programming languages they knew. Anyway…1.English, GML, HTML, CSS.2.Javascript, C++, C#, (and possibly PHP).3.Hmm, I normally have 2 games that i actually "work" on at one time.~TDOT>"How many languages do you speak?"
So… you can SPEAK html? And c++?I didn't say know, I said speak :DAnyway, thanks for your responses. What a talented lot, you guys know loads of programming languages. I only know basic html :D1. English & Afrikaans.
2. Yes, Afrikaans.
3. Hmm… probably about 4.
Even though Classix can be a pain, he seems like an okay person, and I guess he's just trying to contribute.
F1ak3r: Afrikaans is a great language. If I'm correct, it borrows a lot from dutch, which is also a language I always wanted to learn. I stayed with a south african family once, and it was really cool to hear them speak it.
"I guess he's just trying to contribute."Precisely! That's what I'm trying to say. It took me a while to get used to 64d too. And I'm still getting used to it.1.4
2.03.21. Finnish, English, Japanese and one phrase of German! Yay!
2. Nope.3. I'm always working on lot of projects. But actively, maybe two or three.
