|
|
I'm back.
Anyway, since my first game really REALLY sucked; I am going to try to make a game thats truly....unique. So, I was wondering has there been any OHR war games made? Because I was thinking of doing a war game. Or if there has ever been any mafia games made? I thought some of you members that have been here awhile might know. _________________ The Following Statement is True.

The only mafia thing I can think of is the Doughnut mafia in the Bob the Hamster series... It might turn out nice if you make the situations interesting and full of twists. _________________ Planning Project Blood Summons, an MMORPG which will incinerate all of the others with it's sheer brilliance...

Currently working on a war game right now. You might want to make a few better games before trying to script a custom engine. _________________ im realy ded

Even if you know what you're doing, the end result can still be terrible. There's more to games than knowing what you're doing. And what do you want help with anyway? For someone to help with graphics or plotscripts or what? There are people with special talents y'know. If you want a story I could write you one that's very good. If you want graphics or plotscripting, then I'd suggest someone else since I'm still experimenting with those... _________________ A man once said to the Universe "Sir! I exist!"

Sorry, man. I'm booked and have bitten off more than I can chew (very fast) already. Best of luck finding someone who is able to help you. Otherwise the only thing you can do is try it for yourself. It takes time, but it is the only way to get better so you won't need too much (if any) help.
There is a nice phrase I heard once that sort of relates to this: "If you give a man a fish, you can feed him for a day. If you teach a man to fish, you can feed him for life". And the best way to learn is to just hang around, observe others and apply what you observed to your work. _________________ Planning Project Blood Summons, an MMORPG which will incinerate all of the others with it's sheer brilliance...
