When was the last time you made a game?
- Im working on one now!
- 1 to 3 weeks ago
- over 2 months
- at least 6 months
- the Dinos played my game
- Never
another question
How often do you make topics for the same game?
- Just 1 (as the founding fathers intended)
- 2 one for betas and one for release
- 3 or more depending on the importance
- I’m going to make like 50 topics one for each sneak peek and update (shameful)
If you use more than one why? please comment with your reasoning
If its because you want to have it show in the new tab to get more people to see it?
Really? if you want your game to show first then just add more content and have it show-up first
and if its still not getting recognized then it might not need to be seen at the moment there are a
bunch of absolutely amazing games that I’m willing to bet you don’t know and its fine if they are
obscure games can benefit if out of the spotlight.
Now onto the other part of this topic
here are some GameJamish ideas and not often seen ideas to start a new project if you want to
The platformer section (way too many platformers on makecode in my opinion)
Moving 2 Characters at the same time
Both don’t need to have the same gravity and jump height
one could move on the walls and the other could jump around
they could also be unable to move past each other
Jump on a timer
instead of controlling your jumps you will jump no matter what at a set time even in the air
have pickups that change the timer (faster or slower/a set amount)
still have A do something let it be slowing your fall or slamming down
Messing with time
have it so you can stop, slow or reverse time
have some things be affected the opposite way (something only moving when time is stopped)
Have enemies that try to affect you and reverse your movement
Other game ideas
Group shooters
other then Zombies of god i feel like there is still a lot of untapped potential
multiplayer
Survive as long as you can and scavenge for food
PvP
stuff like that I’m only scratching the surface of ideas here there is a lot you could do with this
Fighters
like street fighter
i haven’t seen a single one on the forum and someone should really do it
RPGs
now you may be wondering RPGs? you cant do that on makecode you cant save your progress!
well, what about a rouge-like?
Don’t save your progress but keep the info you gain.
Well thats all the ideas I have at the moment I really wish that this forum was more creators than what i thought it was and prasied in my previous topic Makecode arcade without the arcade now its just
Hey guys i made a new topic for 1 update or Hey who wants to collab but then do nothing to work on a game
Ps: also try limiting color pallet it can add a lot of character to a game if your not good at art like me
