SwedenLynxer Posted April 12, 2003 Share Posted April 12, 2003 Have any serious developer contacted you yet? If not, maybe you can let the rest of the forum know about your great idea? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cousin Vinnie Posted April 12, 2003 Author Share Posted April 12, 2003 Yes, I am currently in speaks with the guy programming "Break", but he seems real busy right now. I hope we can continue. Cousin Vinnie Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

+Sauron Posted April 13, 2003 Share Posted April 13, 2003 How about you learn how to program the Lynx so you can create it yourself? Most programmers would prefer creating their own game ideas instead of having to rely on someone else's. Also, that way you could make certain that the game fits your vision instead of someone else's. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cryptik76 Posted April 13, 2003 Share Posted April 13, 2003 Ideas are a dime a dozen. It's like going up to Stephen King and saying, "Hey, I got a great idea for a horror novel! I'll give you the idea, and you can write a 600-page novel based on it!" Just learn to program it yourself, or let everyone in on it.

TheBizDude Posted April 13, 2003 Share Posted April 13, 2003 Your idea's so good that you've decided it should live on a defunct platform? Hey, how do you keep an idiot in suspense? . . . . . . . I'll tell you tomorrow. Clue? - Oh, you thought they said shoe and replied, "No thanks, I'm not going anywhere" Just goofin on ya - so save your flame! PS - the DJ cat avatar rips!

shep Posted April 13, 2003 Share Posted April 13, 2003 I think saying I have a game idea is kinda pointless when you yourself cannot act on it, especially on a defunct console...who would "steal" it, and why would it matter, especially when your giving it to someone anyways..

TheBizDude Posted April 13, 2003 Share Posted April 13, 2003 I have a nice avatar of a spinning skull, but this thing is real picky! 150x150 pixels and 15K max! Maybe joeybastard could work some majic for me.

TheBizDude Posted April 13, 2003 Share Posted April 13, 2003 I figured it out! If you can get these other 2 to work - that'd be cool, though! No way to delete a post, huh? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cousin Vinnie Posted April 14, 2003 Author Share Posted April 14, 2003 I'd love to program it, I just don't have the time or the knowledge or the time to acquire the knowledge.

Yeah, my work schedule hasn't gotten any better, but I'm hoping I see the light at the end of the tunnel, in the form of a budget to hire another programmer in 8-12 weeks. Then hopefully I can take a nice little break, get some stuff done around the house and make some serious progress on my otherwise stalled Lynx project.

Cousin Vinnie Posted April 15, 2003 Author Share Posted April 15, 2003 I'm training to be a Pro Wrestler. I went to school for awhile, and got hurt when I had to Moonsault onto no one. That sucks booty. I would never do a moonault to begin with, so I was mad at the instructor. My real endevor is my band the Big Fish Funk Revival. After reading about "Break" I'm actually excited about the title. I just wonder, how does the joypad feel controling the paddle? It seems like it might struggle like Ponx did. Just curious on how you are gonna approach it. CV Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Inky Posted April 15, 2003 Share Posted April 15, 2003 You could learn gamemaker and do a mockup of it. Pretty easy to learn and a great intro to programming. Then you could have something to present. www.gamemaker.nl Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cousin Vinnie Posted April 15, 2003 Author Share Posted April 15, 2003 OK Inky, I'll give it a darn shot. CV Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cousin Vinnie Posted April 16, 2003 Author Share Posted April 16, 2003 Well Inky, 24 hours later, I have this to say... I have a pretty decent game in development! I think in a month or so, I will have something worth play-testing. That Game Maker is a great program, even though alot of it still makes me drool in confusion. I got some ideas from some guys in the forums that will hopefully help me do some of the hardest programming. Through a few friends, I've got the graphics I want for the first level down...but I have no idea how to port it over to an Atari system. That'll come later....I guess.

bloodreptile Posted April 19, 2003 Share Posted April 19, 2003 I have this fantastic idea for an lynx game it involves this high speed boat which has to shoot various nasties while picking up goodies. I would have to have extremely bad graphics and be playable for about 1 minute..... So what should I name my game ? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

+Sauron Posted April 30, 2003 Share Posted April 30, 2003 I didn't think Hydra was all that bad. I managed to play it long enough to beat it, and see the "surprise" ending. Definitely not worth another play-through, though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted May 4, 2003 Share Posted May 4, 2003 what have you done! you have used probaly the most crapiest programes ever1 what the f*ck! you should use gamedev. opensource, free and uhmm...open source http://gamedev.sf.net unlimited numbers of objects, can 1 million of tiles in 1 second. support for vbscript if you learn this there is an very big chance you can convert it to an atari console. because it is open source >_< greetz, Vyeyendra ramnares dragonforce Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
