should I make this game?

I'm thinking...
Anyone want me to make a 3D dog fighting game? ... in space? Trust me its probably possible... though its gonna be really hard
=]
comments?
Ideas?
And maybe if that's too hard I'll just make something 3D  big_smile

Oh.. and it probably wont be as much as an entertainment thing as it is something to prove that this stuff is actually possible on scratch

Re: should I make this game?

This sounds interesting. I want you to make it. Though I don't think this thread belongs in Show and Tell...  hmm


Hai.

You can't post in Announcements. Or FAQs, but I think you should make it.

Re: should I make this game?

I don't think u should make it. It might be cool to look at, but fighting is something I don't think should be on Scratch.

Fighting is a skeptical topic on scratch. It could be used in something non-offensive like Space Invader's or something like that. It should not be used if it is bloody and or gory. It really depends on the case.

I'm sorry if I've offended you tiger. But it will be like dawnlight said. Sort of like space invaders. And also, this is not really something to play, but more of a concept game - a 3D engine that others can build off of.
Trust me, gore and excessive violence is something I have not put into my projects for a very long time. And lately, If my project contains any degree of violence, I will put a warning in the front.
I appreciate your concern. ( I was intending to have this against aliens)
After all, Scratch is a website for young, aspiring programmers. Violence has no place in scratch

I would like to see this game, but just make sure you follow what Dawnlight and others said, because blood and gore has no place on Scratch.

Re: should I make this game?

thanks... Cause i'm terrible at graphics  smile

I looked at your projects. They're really good. Considering the fact that 3D is nearly impossible with scratch.
However, your projects are different from what I am thinking... Ever played Microsoft/goodle flight simulator?
I'm trying for that, but there wont be any terrain [1. because its in space and 2. I simply can't do that with scratch]
And also, I won't use changing sizes and multiple costumes for all the itsy little angles. Instead, it the rendering engine will all be based of a XYZ coordinate system with trigonometric calculations. The ships wont really look like ships. They will be grid meshes.

ok know what i m working on the fifth version on ROIT the engine used in them the game is underdevelpment by me and deltalord the game is going to be Called DOGFIGHTS so far it renders clouds and can be used to rotate in 3d I mean its more like NFS kinda graphics adding the terrain right now but just one problem if it becomes dead like space shoom became I would be mad

btw u wanna make it meshes make it there is one benifit of using em u could add more jets etc btw are u making it a Space Racing Game the concept is untouched and will surely be Awesome btw2 if u need any kinda graphics just ask me

Re: should I make this game?

I'm thinking this would be a lot easier in BYOB, (probably a lot less lag)... but that would restrict how many people could play it... what do you think?

ACTUALLY byob WILL INCREASE THE PEOPLE THAT CAN PLAY
use something called 4shared with BYOB then u can spread the game all over the net

It's called Mesh. It's experimental. It's slow. Stop spamming, kyleman565.

Re: should I make this game?

Stuck on rotation algorithm... If you have a circle with center (0,0), and you have a point x_1 and y_1 on the circle, and you know the angle that goes from the [radius that goes to x_1 and y_1 from 0,0] and the angle that goes from (0,0) to a second point on the circle at x_2 and y_2, how do you find the position of x_2 and y_2

AI's that read in XYZ , and direction values, and then tries to get its self facing you (so it can shoot at you)
