Anything Else - I already have potions, a dojo, a shop with weapons and armor, and regeneration.

Ideas on a new game

I would really like to make a sort of strategy/defence game, but i'm having trouble thinking of good themes. Whenever I start on something, i just get another idea and work on that instead. I really need a good theme and story.

Also, not futuristic, and not like modern combat. maybe medieval or magic...

I'm about to go to a movie with, and I'm going straight to bed after that, so I'll fill your orders out tomorrow. I hope that this isn't too big of a wait.

No, that's fine!  I don't have Scratch on the computer I'm using now, so I won't even have a chance to implement the ideas until today.  Thanks for helping!

Okay, here are some ideas:

1). Quests. You could add these in as special side assignments that get you nice treets if done.

2). Maybe, instead of just having monsters to attack you, you could add in the occasional trap and poison to make things more interesting.

3). There could be this special weapon that, before you can use it, you need to collect 5 pieces of it. And the same could go with a special piece of armor.

4). Enchantments. These could raise the strength of a piece of armor, or make a sword sharper.

5). You could add in the ability to costumize your character and your house a bit. It doesn't have to be a lot, though this would be nice.

6). Keys & doors. Keys can be bought through the shop or through battling monsters, and they can then be used to open doors that lead to hidden rooms or brand-new areas.

I hope that you liked my ideas!

Can you give me a challenge to do for my Take The Challenge series? I'll give you credit! Thanks!

Wow, it might of taken me weeks to think of all of that, thank you very much, if you want credit please reply - I will not mind at all. Better yet, I could name the clothes-shop-keeper after you. Who is helping you with this, because that is a great imagination you have there? Oh, and uhm, sorry for torturing you with this extended post.

Sorry if it's too much...

No, this isn't too much. So, to make sure, are you looking for ideas on a game?

Here is some more "torture" for you.

Oh no, this isn't torture, this is nice feedback, so if it was "torture", I'd like more of it. And to your question, no one is or has helped me with this shop. I just happen to know a few tricks that really speed up the idea process quite a bit, and I have some time to just sit and think. That or this is just a specialty of mine.

Also, naming the Clothes Shop Keeper after me is fine. :)

And, once you do finish this, could you give a link? I'm interested in seeing what this'll be like.

Now, one last thing; good luck on your project, and Merry Christmas! (Or kuwanzaa, hanukkah, ect...)

When I publish the game, all the people I am giving credit to will be notified directly after it is successfully been checked by myself for glitches and things of that nature, also those tricks you have are very effective, you should consider giving classes. Merry Christmas. Continue to be a great scratcher and remain as friendly and as modest as you are so from my side here is a gift, a super HOMER SIMPSON SMILEY~(8^(|)-+.

That really warms my heart. :')

And now, I give you a present as well:

(I just realised this looks a bit mutilated on my computer, so if your wondering, these were flowers.)

So Merry Christmas! And when it comes, Happy New Years! I wish you lots of joy and happiness this season, and lots of warmth in your home and heart. :)

The Idea Shop is now closed for Christmas. It'll reopen tomorrow, though orders are still accepted during this time.

Anyway, to every scratcher out there, Merry Christmas! Happy Kuwanzaa! Happy Hanukkah! I hope that you'll all have a great day!

Thank you! And happy holidays at you too! I wish you a great rest of the day as well as lots of happiness to come!

Finally, I can get cracking on your order! So here are some ideas:

1). A project that detects how many times you've clicked the red circle and the green flag. Or, you could make a project that tells you if you clicked the green flag, the red circle, or neither last.

2). A simple calculator, except you're not allowed to use custom variables or lists.

3). A drawing program kind of like GloPaint v1.0, though pen blocks are not allowed.

I hope that you like my ideas! Also, welcome to the scratch forums!
