Game idea

[NiN^_^NiN]

I've got this idea to make a 2d version of house of the dead

If you remember the gameplay the monsters come stright on so what could be done is we use say birdshot engine. We have sprites zooming in (Getting bigger walking towards u) and you must shoot them. We use static backgrounds.

It seems simple i mean the engine is basiclly done and we just need the graphics.

What do you guys think?

Also the name could be house of the living dead or Nightmare on 32 GP street

If you hooked up a microphone, you could do that thing like on dc, only with voices. Instead of typing of the dead it would be speaking of the dead lol :lol: . But house of the dead is a good game, would be fun to play on gp.

I think it would be a great game. Hope you decide to make it.

Well im gonna contact fagemul the author of bird shot and see if he would like to.

I'm gonna have to do graphics and all which is gonna be hard as i havent found any sprites available so i might have to:

A.) Make all new 3D models then make sprites out of them
B.) Grab monsters from snes games etc
C.) Sulk in the corner

I just emailed fagemul so we will see what happens if any1 knows of any sprites of monsters that are face on please post.

Well i got the house of the dead game and have started ripping graphics

Tell me what you think about this zombie sprite its the best i could do as the game is 3d and has no sprites

I might be able to make the animation more fluid.

But would you guys like the game if the animation was like that?

No way to make it really 3D but if it has static 3D background and the monsters comming at you do you think it be ok?

I think the zombie looks great. I've been playing a lot of snes on my GP32 so i don't mind if it all runs more fluid, I'd play it.

Cool well i'm gonna try to get the intro and atleast a zombie with better animation working for a quick 1 level demo for this

I haven't heard anything from fagemul tho so i have 1 more person who has the shooting code already to try to do this. (the other shooter in the 15 day comp)

must say that it's a good idea and that your intro and zombie look gr8.

but I'm afraid the game will be a bit slow .... I'd rather see many very small zombies than a few big bastards like that :lol:

btw, are you going to make it lvl based or just one lvl where more & more zombies show up?

good luck, need anything = just ask :lol:

 

[NiN^_^NiN]

Nah the zobies will resize on the screen as they come forward.

The game will be losely based on the levels in hotd

Basiclly i will pick about 3 sceans from the start of the game

First scean is where zombie attacks the doctor

next 1 is infront of the house

last 1 is down the stairs in that sewer bit.

then inside the house will be level 2.

The graphics wont be slow cause i'm not using a 3d engine thank god and the LCD buffer should provide help for the work.

Hopefully this game will be good but i'm worried that sega might get pissed and start sending emails to the gp32 websites :unsure:

Still we will see how it goes

I made a mockup of what the game will look like its here

http://us.f1.yahoofs.com/users/5c36aaa0/bc...ctUwM_AE6tZ97.j

Please not that there is no code written for this and that the image above is not really running in geepee32 (look at the bottom left it says stopped) its just to give you guys an idea. thats all

Also its about 700kbs so just wait for the gif to load u wont be dissapointed

You should do a typing of the dead only using the quad 9 tree

 

[NiN^_^NiN]

What do you mean typing of the dead? i know what the quad 9 tree is but i dont get what u r saying about "typing of the dead"

So sorry Rigor

Here is a quick page i did (very quick) to show u what i was thinking.

The site seams to be a bit wierd and the images may not fully load just refresh

I have all the images needed just have to make the sprites

I dont know about making the game like that dont think you could type the words fast enough with quad 9 tree might tho i'll have to think about it.

[Meonlyeviler]

After awhile, you can type pretty fast on quad 9 tree, I use age 2k too much

Well you forget i can't program and i want it to be as easy for the programmer.

NiN^_^NiN, if you want I can do some GFX for your project. I'll mock something up over the weekend and post it here, if your interested I'll do the lot Zombies that is).

 

[NiN^_^NiN]

Well i am the gfx person lol i can't program but id like to see your monsters.

The best way would be to get some1 with poser and then i could give them monster 3d files etc then they can have them walk but i dont have poser no more
