@BLPs darn oh well but i starting to think i come up with way to many idea's to fast lol especially when it takes me longer
to type them then come up with them.

Don't worry. For those who are older and remember the PSone days, you might know what I'll do with a game spent looking at the behind of a character

Nah. It's a reference to it being my first game (Unless I shelve it and say it sucks like everything else I do) and it references the particular inspiration it has, back when that series was in it's Prime.

Now I know as far as everyone is concerned I am just some kid making a promise but...my late grandfather did say to me at Xmas that I should do what I want to in life, and this is the one idea I have just not been able to put to bed in my usual manner of self-loathing. After playing over these 3 games again (Not so much the original!) and looking at the gameplay...I miss that experience, and while I and many others can always go back and play those games again, what incentive do the young'uns of today have? And the sad part is I know they wont care either. Too busy with their CoDs and Battlefields and the such.

In fairness that's what most games coming out for ps4 and xbone mainly are: shooters, disappointment, dlc filled, and even cinematic movie games but then again there is an old saying that works: give what your people want and you shall control their minds, or something like that.
well BLPs that is how trolls were created.

You know you guys can just use my name right? (Sean)

As for giving people what they want...yeah. I'm not the only who misses this kind of game, and to be frank, I distinctly remember it being one of the first things I played. After Sonic 2 and Spyro the Dragon of course. It's quite a personal hole in my life tbh.

@sean well i hope this works and is mainly a test lol but I might as well say this lol, I hope you do become a certified game designer so I can use my game idea's somewhere lol. Also have you notice that there are less and less practical or witty trolls nowadays?

You'll still have to tag me using BLPs but if it is just in general chitchat and you need to refer to me by name, use Sean, it just sounds better XD

I'm already on my way you know. I'm in my first year of a 3 year course for BSc Honours Computer Games Design Degree.

And trolls were witty at one point? I must be getting old.

Yes Sean they used to be witty well not all of they but add in tons of call of duty to the point they get stale and more and more trying to be trolls just made some good trolls sick and some trolls retired and some quit trolling unless it to troll bad troll's but idk when good trolls stopped mainly but i guess the good trolls just got tired of the same kinds of games after all good trolls usually do play games ovber many systems if i recall.

Right. That made me feel old. Like...really old.

Which reminds me, the franchise I'm getting inspiration from is the same age as me (19), so that narrows it down a fair bit.

I don't know what it will be released on. Most likely for free via dumping it on the web, or Steam. All depends if I wish to suffer through Kickstarter.

Kickstarter isn't that bad well i guess that's cause I have never done it but meh, also if you would like to see some great inspiration for games watch Steven universe and especially pay attention how gems fuse and there are different episodes for it and different combinations across levels watchcartoononline ik has every episode currently made, so happy only 2 episodes till season 1 is finished and season 2 can begin.

Hehe...gems.

Anyway, I'm sure I will work something out. The game isn't going to be terribly big anyway.

I think games need to be constrained to maintain focus. So many times have big games lost focus just to pad out a large world or something. -.-

I think that it's more of the fact of how they make it for example dark cloud 2 a marvelous big game that kept focus and was still be but big can vary more on how much content is in it rather then just size for example god of war 3 takes up 35gb and when u keep into account that it's just a large mountain it doesn't really have much content when they recycle all the enemy's except bosses but when you keep into account of super mario 3d world it doesn't to much more then 1gb and yet is filled with hundreds of levels, several worlds, up to 5 players on at the same time, minigames, bonus worlds, and even a stamp system and book with access to its own forums. which in terms is massive amount of content. Of course mario levels do recycle many enemy's as well like goomba's and koopa's but not every enemy.

I might download Unity and have a little play with a very empty level for my game, before I get the course build out.

@BLPs: First of all, great response. I don't entirely agree on the "make what you want versus what the consumer wants topic", but when you're only focused on one aspect of developement, I'm sure it's best not to get tangled in the rest of it. I look forward to seeing your pre-alpha work (I have an odd love for rough game design) and will try to give any relevant feedback. Good luck, Sean.
