Would you please shut up. If you know how to read, check out the first line in my paragraph. "It was my life long dream to make a game." I've planned this out for 3-4 months and I know what I'm going to do. So 2 options, STFU or GTFO.
Slapshot, I'm totally gonna jailbreak and pirate this game. Haha just kidding but you need to think about pirates. If I were you I'd contact Eurocenter (makers of DinoSmash and Bomber Online) because apparently their pirated apps are unplayable. Definitely ask them how to do that. Oh and ignore all these nay sayers and debbie downers.
Lol sorry to be a Debbie downer and all but.... I just don't believe it. This guy doesn't even sound like a dev, Im not sure now, but I feel that with no actual gameplan and him just barely starting to create concept art (not sure how good of an artist he is, but I'd he's shooting for a tbs then he's gonna need to come up with portraits for the units) that I just can't believe that a game like this can bem created so easily. I'm sorry but with your ambition and naivity I think Youre going to lead everyone on to a game that was never even started. Sounds, art, code, and story are some of the major things and in your post you showed us none of those, heck not even a logo.
There you go Slapshot, instead of showing us a proof of concept or even an art you choose vulgarity. Surely in those 3-4 months of planing you already came up with something. BTW I doubled check your post # just checking if its by chance post # 2000 and you are planing another stunt like this one http://forums.toucharcade.com/showthread.php?t=20669&page=8
Seriously, Slappy, try to be a bit more elegant and diplomatic. You honestly sound like a prick the way you're responding. The entire world of business is built upon unconditional respect. How would Toyota and Nissan look of the companies' presidents were constantly arguing (a breakdance competition being the only exception)? And I'm not taking sides here, but without any previous projects or proof of talent and ability, you sound like you're biting off way more than you can chew. There's only one way to proof otherwise, and you're doing the exact opposite.
Exactly, seriously how old are you slapshot? If you plan on being a dev there are a lot of things you should learn. You cannot be a doctor without having a medical degree, so in turn let me ask you if you have any background in programing? Look, i know you have none and i'm not saying its bad to dream but its just fine to keep it to yourself until you already have the tools to work on your dream. You see you are leading some people on, some people actually believes you that you are going to release this game by December and you know as well as i do that you will bring them down coz there is just no way you can fulfill even half of the list you came up with and that is being kind coz part of me believes you cant even fulfill any of those coz programming is a tricky thing ask JD ( Quantum Colapse). Funny is JD also encountered some critics after he release his game and never did he respond the way you do...and he have a finished game, all you have is a list, a dream and an attitude. http://forums.toucharcade.com/showthread.php?t=20669&page=8
ok slapshot i have to admit, you gotta change your communication strategy. otherwise you won't attract consumers. try using less vulgarity and providing them with a BIT of helpful info.
Sorry. Ok guys, I listened loud and clear. I promise to stop posting things like that and change my attitude to a happy and upbeat dev. I feel really bad that I didn't control my anger and am dearly sorry. Things are in my hands now and I'm responsible for my actions and things I do. The project starts tomorrow right after I get out of school. Very excited. So guys again, I just want to say I'm sorry. Now it's time for me to work hard.
We'll thank you, now I can talk to you without fear that the reply I'll have has an f word on it lol! I'm interested in your minigame, will it run on the same engine with your main game? I'm assuming since you will be playing the creep that it is realtime, am I right? Your main game is TBS right?
Slappy I seemed to notice that so far you have not respond to any programming related queries I have asked you nor you volunteered any info yourself, may I ask why? Thanks !
I honestly have also been wondering the same thing. If it took four months to think that, without some basic art, I don't know what to say =P
Yes, you're right. But the minigame is probably gonna be Accelorometer controlled. I was gonna make it where it would be a turn based thing, like if you move your Creep to close to a tower it would shoot it and kill it. But I like Accelorometer better.
Oh, and by the way. I think I'm gonna take out P2P. I don't think anybody uses that. So if anybody does just say so. Thanks.
You mean like pacman? What is the gameplay mechanic? Do you play as a single creep or a swarm? Btw where did you learn to program?
