Title: I need ideas for enemies.
Post by: Kilroy on April 12, 2008, 06:53:00 PM
One of my friends is making a game (I've already played it, no it's not a flash game :P) and I'm making most of the ideas, and he's doing the programming part.

One of the little things I came up with are "Doodles" (seeing as the game is called Doodleman). The Doodles will randomly appear from the side or top of the screen, and each one will do its own thing. I have 3 or 4, but he's looking forward to a total of 15 or so. That isn't much of a problem, but this part is.

He's hoping to get it on the XBox Live Marketplace (Which would be awesome :P) and according to the rules that Microsoft gave the Marketplace game creators, anything in the game must be completely original, no spin-offs or things copied from another game are allowed.

So that's where I run into a wall. A large brick wall that Bill Gates made himself. I can't think of anything totally original that can be easily hand-drawn by a seven-year-old.

So I need halp. Give me ideas.

About the WiiWare thing, do you have any info on what language Nintendo uses? XD

"Believe it or not, I thought about that today. But then I asked myself... why? I don't even know how to make a game for WiiWare."

I'm just saying, Nintendo doesn't regulate WiiWare games at all.

Your friend would get all the money, and it would be much easier to get on WiiWare.

It doesn't matter what programming language you use. As long as it doesn't have any major bugs, it can be on WiiWare.

That's epic.

But what if we put it on both systems? :O

And also, he's against the idea of the Wii remote Sideways, even though it would make more sense than a 360 controller, seeing as you're using all the buttons :/

And Zovistograt, you're a genius.

If we think of them, then they wouldn't be your original ideas, now would they?
