I got this great Idea. A war game. There will be Footmen, Gunmen, and Machinegunmen. Footmen ------ Deadly to gunmen at close range. Weak agianst gunmen at long range Gunmen ------- See footmen Machinegunmen Very strong if protected. Never leave alone on battle feild. This will be massive multiplayer. To win, one team must either destroy the enemy base, or kill all the oponents. (yes I know, violence to humans. But what do you expect? Its a war.) I would like to do this with a free program like Game Maker so I can have the ease of 2-D and the Gameplay of 36 directions (using top veiw). I looked at BYOND, it would have been perfect, but I think you can only do 4 directions. Please inform me if I am wrong, because I particularly like the looks of BYOND. Any others will work too though. ------------------ I took the road less traveled and now WHERE THE HELL AM I????? |

There will be a little more to it right? Also, why have gunmen if they are the same as footmen? Ah well, good luck. Max ------------------ |

he's just saying that the gunmen are defined in the section which defines the footmen. hmmm.. I have BYOND and was looking into using it, but I really don't know much about it now. sry. ------------------ |

The footmen are just the oposite of gunmen. actualy they are a little more than oposite. gunmen kill with 3 shots, footmen with 1. and yes there will be more. You will be able to set sandbags, but it takes time, and people can shoot at you, or footmen can attack you. Machinegunmen will walk slower cause they gotta carry that hulk around with them. You will be able to throw grenades... Its gonna be a team game too, cause you have to protect each other. Was there something else you were thinking of Max? ------------------ I took the road less traveled and now WHERE THE HELL AM I????? |
