• Make a logo

Re: Super Awesome Tower Defence Collab

Also, can you please check if my projects on 2.0 are "advanced"? I would like to be a programmer.

Re: Super Awesome Tower Defence Collab

This sounds really cool, can I join as an advertiser or advertising manager?

Re: Super Awesome Tower Defence Collab

Sure. At the moment, you can advertize for the collab and later, after we have characters and such for the game, you can advertize for the game.

Okay, I hope this collab goes far

PS. Am I a advertiser or the advertising manager?

Re: Super Awesome Tower Defence Collab

Are my projects good enough to be considered "advanced"? If so, I would be an "advanced programmer" instead. Also, is there a rank system for the collab?

Since you're the only advertiser, you can be the manager.

You're projects are way beyond what I can do! You can be advanced! I may consider making a ranking system if this collab gets more members so make sure to ask your friends! Also, could you show me a link to a collab with a ranking system so I can get ideas?

Re: Super Awesome Tower Defence Collab

A Scratch Tower Defence? Count me in! (if you'll let me...  wink )
I'm pretty confident I'll be able to help out with anything from game mechanics to art and sound design. I've only uploaded two projects so far, but feel free to check them out to get an impression of my work.

Since I'm starting out, I'd really appreciate if you'd comment too!

Either way, I'm really excited to join you guys with this idea!

Re: Super Awesome Tower Defence Collab

There aren't many collabs with ranks, but Style Xi 3, another group I am part of, has one that is not being used as much due to lack of members.  sad

Re: Super Awesome Tower Defence Collab

Last night I came up with a possible theme for the game: INFECTION.
How about making the walkers viruses and bacteria, and the towers types of human immune cells?
The game would be set in the human body, with the path being a blood vessel.

The nice aspect of viruses and bacteria is that you'll need relatively few sprites to animate them. Also, depending on how much research you do, the game could be very educational - with towers such as Macrophages, Inflammatory Cells, Killer T Cells, etc.

How about it?

I don't know much about the human body so this may not happen. I'll think about it! Keep coming up with great ideas!

It's a great idea it's just that I don't know much when it come to the human body. I'll think about it.

Re: Super Awesome Tower Defence Collab

Haha, since my major is biochemistry, naturally the first thing I thought about was cells and viruses.
But of course it works best if the theme is something everyone can work with.  wink

Re: Super Awesome Tower Defence Collab

IDEAS:


• Infection

How about making the walkers viruses and bacteria, and the towers types of human immune cells?
The game would be set in the human body, with the path being a blood vessel.

The nice aspect of viruses and bacteria is that you'll need relatively few sprites to animate them. Also, depending on how much research you do, the game could be very educational - with towers such as Macrophages, Inflammatory Cells, Killer T Cells, etc.
(IDEA BY PAULRHJT)

EXTRA REQUIREMENTS:
   - Research


• BLIP!

Blip would be a game which takes place in a computer Anti-Virus Software. The walkers are viruses and the towers are... well, computer looking towers.

• Pizza Madness

This is a little bit diffrent. There is a pizza at the end of the path and toppings are the walkers, but you don't want the gross stuff to get in the pizza at the end, you want good stuff like bacon and cheddar cheese. So bacicly, you want the good stuffto get in and the gross stuff to be blasted.  When you lose all your lifes or quit, a critic will try the pizza and give you a rating, and this will add to your score.

If you have any more ideas, let us know. WE NEED AN IDEA BY MONDAY APRIL 22!
