Well… guess what guys. I'm making a game =O I haven't made a decent game in awhile, so i'm gonna make one and see how far it goes. This game is the sequal to my game Close Call. Check it out if you wanna know what CC2:OS is gonna be like.

Anyways, what does CC2:OS stand for? Close Call 2: On Steroids. Now, to tell you the truth, CC1 was a piece of (look away kiddies) poopy. The graphics were thrown together in a couple seconds, the AI was a too unhuman like, and there wasn't really much for gameplay cuz everybody died in a couple seconds. It basically wasn't as professional as i could make it.

So, i set out to revamp the whole thing. Now, why is it on steroids? Take a look for yourself:

The first one is just a regular game, the second is a game in debug mode.

Basically, im gonna try to make this as graphically spectactular as a non-professional pixelist can make it. Right now, the graphics are kinda boring. I'm gonna make all the scenaric objects (walls, factories, etc) as detailed as possible, and as much of them as possible. =)

Oh yeah, there's gonna be more than one stadium for you to play on. I'm also gonna make the gui look better and add more explosion effects.

Also, the AI has taken a large jumping scale. For the most part, i'm using the Ai3 ai example with a little bit of tweaks made just for this game. An example of this is when 2 or more homing rockets attack them, the ai will spin in a circle forcing the homing rockets to collide into one another destroying them. It also features my own pathfinding. Mark Overmars' was fine, except it didn't really rely on speed to move, making it very jerky. Also, no more "snap around turning." They turn at the same speed you do. Basically, this AI is much more humanlike.

Also, the game isn't a one hit kill like the last one. Both enemy and user gets 100 hit points. When you call an AI, you get a full tank of hitpoints. But, like the last one, two more enemies spawn to attack you.

I also want to make it so that it's not just the user versus a hundred opponents, but a huge ass free for all… that would be quite interesting =). Shouldn't be too hard, i've already programmed the AI allowing that to happen so, we'll see. And, with the help of Kaz, i might get this to be multiplayer over the internet =D.

Anyways, what i need are:

1) Some ideas for scenary/stadium themes

2) AI ideas

3) Game play ideas

4) Beta Testers

5) Comments of encouragement =)

As for demos, we'll see as i get along with the project.
