Sure. could you make a map engine. Just make a game where you cant leave the screen, but if you click a button, a map appears and when you places, you go there. (Sorry for being vauge, but thats the best way i can describe what im thinking of.)

Ok, but how do you mean:

???

I think he means that you just can touch the sides.

So the first parts a 2D platformer, and then you click a button and it goes onto a map, right?

no idea, im not part of this, i only hang around here because i have no life.

Yeah, but it can be a eight way movement game too, the type of game doesnt really matter, just that you can change where you are using a map.

could we just focus on the topic? i hate it when others just insert some unrelated topic.

You dont get 8 way movement, you get 4 scrolling, which involves diagonal movement.

Im not talking about scrolling.

Right... ok... you're gonna need some pretty specialized sprites if your going to be dealing with 8 direction movement.

Im not talking about anything special, just something where you cant go off the screen. 4 way would be fine.

Go ask on Lord Sprites websites then.

Mortal Engines... its sounds like a company developing Engines for games, doesn't it? Maybe Imortal Engines would sound better?

Well, its based on the book seiries, so i think it should have the same title.

Um... Am I still in?

@Fishmonk - I might be a while with the map thing you told me to do because I'm busy. Sorry

Probably, we were talking about you over at my companys thread.

What were you saying about me?

Fishy (Fishmonk) said you'd made a Command and Conqure type game.

Eh... I kinda gave up on it. I might start it up again. It was a space-based RPG.

I'm also working on a Civilization (Sid Meier's) type game.
