Our new Indie Games subforum is now open for business in G&T. Go and check it out, you might land a code for a free game. If you're developing an indie game and want to post about it, follow these directions. If you don't, he'll break your legs! Hahaha! Seriously though.
Our rules have been updated and given their own forum. Go and look at them! They are nice, and there may be new ones that you didn't know about! Hooray for rules! Hooray for The System! Hooray for Conforming!

why ain't you shut up about your awful game idea and make it

here's the deal

lets have a contest

lets talk about how the contest should go

lets talk about who's gonna enter


it ain't take a large amount of time to make a simple game or a single level of a larger game, and that's all we need

what do you say

    $50 to the person who makes a good mod for Oblivion set to Zelda.

    Edit - yay I can see shoe's posts without having to click text for it. :D

    A game where the only enemy is yourself and nothing is as it seems.

    That's true but on the other hand nobody is ever going to make a decent looking Zelda mod (like even just armor).

    no wait I don't want to do that because it's boring, whoops

    nothing wrong with programming, I benefit from it a lot!

    I can, but not at the moment. We're working on First Playable which is due Friday.

    and its C++, not C+.

    It depends on what kind of game.
    Do I have the time to whip up a shitty, shitty, shitty 2D engine?
    Yeah.

    But not much more than that.
    Do you actually know C++ too Knob?

    nevillexmassig1.png
  • KnobKnob TURN THE BEAT BACK InternetSuper Moderator, Moderator mod
    i have a pretty rudimentary knowledge of c++ and a bookshelf of reference

    shit takes me longer than it should, but i get by

  • TechnicalityTechnicality Registered User regular

    Wake me up if something actually happens.

    Whoops, didn't see you'd made a thread for this already so I posted in the Aughts thread:

    I would totally enter this! My art sucks though.

    Actually, what would be cool since we have so many awesome artists here would be to do something like TIGSource's Assemblee: a bunch of artists make some assets and then a bunch of programmers/designers make a game out of them

  • LockoutLockout Registered User
    well I fiddled around in Hammer a couple years ago. nothing good, just the beginner tutorials and whatnot

    never had any incentive to buckle down and do anything with it really. I could learn, I guess? going to have a good bit of free time coming up

    so maybe?

  • TenTen Registered User regular
    I can do programming and design, for 2D stuff I'm most comfortable with flash, for 3D stuff I'd probably take a look at Unity, I'm not a low level coder so I like to make use of libraries and shit that do all the hard work for me.

    does it have to be a videogame?

    I could invent a new version of extreme frisbee where you throw sawblades instead?

  • YaYaYaYa ... ...wanna fight?Registered User regular
    but Knooobbbb the designer stuff is the only thing I know how to doooo!

    I made a web series! watch it here: http://bloodsuckingbooks.com
