    I would like to see a 2D super smash brothers type game where you could go online an battle your friends. It could even have characters from apps like rolando, etc. Of course there might be legal issues with using other peoples characters.

    UPDATE: Maybe when SDK 3.0 comes out you can add in app purchase for new levels and characters!

    Haha everytime I mention RSVP I get no love. I don't think anyone here has ever played it. Maybe I'll just make an RSVP-esque game and enjoy it myself. :D

    yeah that wouldn't really work with app characters but a 2d fighter like smash bros would be epic. Actually just thought of great control scheme for a street fighter type game. Instead of just opting for virtual control you could try something unique. U would need a virtual d pad or analog stick for movement like left and right, up is jump, down is crouch, tap direction away from facing when attack is coming for block. Then for attacking you could have swipes control different things. short swipe in direction facing is punch, long swipe is strong punch. same for in direction opposite but that would be kicking. swipe down could control super attacks and swipe up could be ultra like in street fighter.

    I am going to give caster a run here and see what was done with it. I noticed the app reviews in the average category. One issue that comes up with 3d titles is there is a trade off, terrain an assets have to be kept very bare on the phone to keep the performance up. To make things worse few people understand the technical limitations and the developer gets beat up about low quality graphics.

    Another vote for a RPG similar to Pokemon / Dragon Quest Monsters.

    Hi. I'm the artist Codepunk is talking about. I did the models for Cruise Strike and Teeter Blox. I am very interested in your guy's input on what types of games you would like to see us make. Its a real thrill making a video game and seeing someone you don't know play and enjoy it.

    Okay how about something that is more native to the iTouch? 2d games and 3d games are great and all, but people are still gg to compare it to console quality games.

    There was already an idea mentioned in this thread about gestures to perform attacks. Anything else? There is this game on the psp where rhythm tapping instruct a tribe to either attack or defend, etc. How about do the same but with gestures as well as rhythm?

    ok it might be copying the game idea, but my point is, some game more native to the iTouch?

    I am sick of the grey games where you restore the world with colors (se de blob and rolando.)! So can the theme be the opposite. The world is full of color and cute curvey cartoony stylized animations, and you make the world sketchy, dark, jagged, and dark? would this work for an FPS? Escape the land of color and shoot down as many happy bouncy bunnies as possible on the way out? Maybe this would work for a platform game too?

    I suggest something like a Online Version of iDracula or MiniGORE, something along those lines. You can customize your character and there would be modes where you find people online to fight one on one, two on two, and so on... there would be team deathmatches, capture the flag... and of course if a game like this is made there should be a quest mode, or monster horde mode where you team up with other people online like in rooms to take down monsters and a boss etc.. and compete online for the fastest times :)

    thanks for reading!

    I agree. Develop something 'native to the iTouch/iPhone'... i.e really use its functionality n all. Cant think of any specific idea but.. i can give examples:

    Zen Bound - by far the BEST app, which was really MADE fr a platform like that of iPhone/iTouch

    Adventure Games like Myst and 1112 - the way they utilized the touch controls

    a Strategy game! a top-down 2D rpg like diablo!

    Usually, apps are more into platformers n fps, which can only be played easily with a virtual d-pad or some similar implementation. There are GREAT titles which utilize this technique, but still... they aren't apps native to the iPhone real functionality.

    I hope everyone understands what im trying to say here? :)

    side scroller with pixel graphics and possible with weapons.

    Also online multiplayer deathmatch. Use Gang Garrison 2 for a reference.

    My first choice would be a Final Fantasy type rpg.
    Second choice would be for an rpg similar to Pokemon / Dragon Quest.

    Maybe a combination of the 2?

    Third, a Diablo type top down rpg.
