Since I'm finished with my V4D game, I don't know what I should do next.
Surprisingly, I don't want to work on TWE again. At least for a while.(That shitty TDS that I've been making for the past 2178435694 years)I've been thinking about creating an entirely new game, or continue working on Fighter Valentine and making it work with Alert Games' AGMAPI.I was planning on doing something similiar to Dark Souls, where players could join your world and either try to help you, or try to kill you. I already have some decent ideas on how that would work, I think it'd be pretty cool, but I don't know if anyone would even play it.Is there any type of game that you would like to see made? I'm up for suggestions.I just want to work on something as fun to make as Fighter Valentine again. It was the first time I've ever made a game that didn't take itself seriously whatsoever, and I'm proud of the results, though I think I could've done better on some parts.Also, here's some concept art that I started when the V4D comp first begun, but I never finished:
Originally, the kittens in the game were going to be neutral, until you attacked them. Then they would transform into gigantic cat heads and their eyes would shoot laser beams at you.True story. lulsThe guy on the right was originally supposed to be the villian of the game, but he eventually turned out to become Dr. Obesity.EDIT: Oh yeah, and I had originally planned for the player to be able to buy sword in the game, each with their own damage. But due to time constrictions, I had replaced that with explosive cupcakes.
Just spend some time on their until it triggers inspiration.
TWE multiplayer alpha testing?
But of course :DI like the multiplayer co-op idea..So long as it's not just generic zombie-killing that is. :pCool, I'll go dig up the file right now, and give you a link.
But…zombie killing is all the rage!
Seriously though if there's going to be multiplayer co-op I think a campaign or special mission type mode would be good.wow, what a coincidence. Turns out, my latest attempt at online multiplayer was actually supposed to be, in fact a generic zombie game. I feel like a terrible person now.
Also, I had to rename it, because the previous title was just stupid.I dunno if this'll work, but here you go:ClickTell me when you get online.So you want to do something, easy, fun, with room for flexibility and creativity?
I'm going to suggest what I always do for people stuck on ideas. Make a platform exploration game or MetroidVania. These kinds of games can be super easy to make; the core gameplay is simple platforming + item augmentation/upgrades if that's where you're headed, and you get to focus mainly on the fun stuff like level design, enemy design, backgrounds, etc.If you're not sure what I'm talking about, play the following games…For a platform exploration game:-Sieklus-Knytt and Knytt Stories-Ico or Shadow of The Colossus-An Untitled Story-Anyone Else's World.For a MetroidVania:-Metroid or Castlevania games :P-Cave Story-The Power-Hero: Core.I'm actually thinking about doing a spiritual successor to "Super Fight!" which is an old game that I made back when I was 11 or 12.
But, instead, it'll play similiar to The Cleaner.It'll most likely be an open world/exploration game this time. It'll contain destructable environments(probably), some RPG elements where you can upgrade/unlock new skills and whatever else I can think of.It'll probably be somewhat difficult, but nowhere near as frustrating as my V4D entry, because it'll be much more forgiving.
