**When was the last time you made a game?**

_Poll ([view on site](https://forum.makecode.com/t/game-ideas-when-was-the-last-time-you-made-a-game/25219/1))_

another question  
How often do you make topics for the same game?

_Poll ([view on site](https://forum.makecode.com/t/game-ideas-when-was-the-last-time-you-made-a-game/25219/1))_

**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](https://forum.makecode.com/t/makecode-arcade-without-the-arcade/24087/16) 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

For me I kinda ended up posting stuff about my card game on a help topic so I plan to make a new one when the beta releases.

Hey, awesome post! Nice and long. I can’t beleive i’m the only person who does just 1 post. Thankfully most just do 2- I’d say 2 is the perfect amount, so you can boost the finished game! 3 is the absolute MAXIMUM, anything more and it’s irresponsible.

Working on one right now, to be exactly “the best fighter” (from here: [An error on my code](https://forum.makecode.com/t/an-error-on-my-code/22454)), i know i said it was gonna be yomi hustle like but, yomi hustle its REALLY hard, so i restarted from the copy @PixelDoodle sent me in the topic (thx for solving the error)…

btw i deleted original (reason for why i took the copy of pixel doodle) just because i didn’t know how to do the air attacks.  
I wasn’t too intelligent.

I like to use one topic the build up the hype. The second topic is for the full release of the game.

Well, there’s actually an [extension](https://forum.makecode.com/t/settings-extension/1594) that allows you to save variables and such…

So regular RPGs are technically possible!
