Can you make a game? are you good at it?

Right, each week I will set you a small chalenge, all goodmini games will be wrapped up, and spat back out into one massive game! Like it?

Yes?

Chalenge 1: Make a mini game about food. (eg. Throw the custard pies into a massive mouth!)

Thanks,
GOOD LUCK!

Game Admin!

nop, how about you make the mini games and then compile them into one massive game, just to show you can do it..... may 14th 2006 joining date, proove yourself or you'll just get ripped on for posting silly ideas, this happens all the time with new members joining our beloved forum. you cant just waltz in here and expect to be taken seriously when you have nothing of your own to show off, impress us and we might take you seriously.

this is the natural way of things around here, You'll get help if you need it, but don't try to wrap up other peoples code into a big game just yet, you ain't been here long enough. and nobody knows who you ere. technically you will be seen as a n00b for posting things like this, not a newbie, a n00b.

normally you'd get roasted for this kind of post, with a bit of luck you'll get away with a mild scorching. proove yourself first, thats the key then you'll do well here.

incidently, the forumers including myself can become a pack of wolves in no time if outlandish claims or suggestions for 'team games and collaberations are incited by those we dont know and who have nothing to bring to the party, your code will speak louder than words here.

I'm not being nasty here, just telling you how it is, you'll need a thick skin m8.

cheers, Grant.

btw game admin, the asnwer to your moronic riddle is 2nd. It's really not hard.

I wonder why your other account got banned

Quote: "Oh... Belive it or not... Im only 10 Years old... AND have my game in a shop! Ha!"

Well share a few screenshots with the community.

And i hope you realise that starting a new account after your previous one ot barred could perhaps be taken as a form of fraud.

Lol, I find it amusing how you refer the DarkBasic as a gaming 'system'. In a sense, it could be considered that, but really, it just sounds.. stupid.

I've always thought of it more as a programming laguage, but maybe that's where im going wrong. Funny how after 2 years of college i stil havent sold a game and he managed it in elementary.

I think we should sticky this thread like hanging a dead carcas from ropes as a warning to rebellious prioners.

whats the name of your game, so i can pop along to game or HMV or whatever and buy a copy, i'd be interested to see what a 10 year old has made, if its of commercial quality. what was it written with?? if it was a TGC product, why don't you have a demo of it on the forum for us to look at, come to think of it, a published games writer is bound to have a website of sorts, what's the URL?

In fact just give me the name and i'll google it, if it's for sale, chances are someone has reviewed it and i'll find it with google no problem

what i am saying here is, just show us something to proove what you claim. all to often kids make up some amazing stories in here about claims to fame and publishing deals.


PS. DONT SHOUT AT ME AGAIN!!!! (using caps is shouting and frowned upon.)

Dropping a CD with your Hello World program on it on the floor of EB or whatever gaming store does not constitute having your game in a shop. Unless of course youtr selling it as a coaster

You don't 'sponsor' Google? Do you have the slightest idea what you're talking about? Besides, if you really had a game, you'd want it everywhere - It'd be on Google.

Also, you're saying it's not on the shelves now?

Believe us, we dont doubt that at all.

Now then, ofcourse you could be telling the truth about your game nobody's heard of being sold in a store nobodys heard of, in a place nobody here can see, however, without any screen shots, demos, information, or even a damn picture of the game on the shelf in the store, your word on these forums is worth jack, which is then multiplied even more by the stupidity of you're 10 posts in a row within the timespan of 5 minutes.

So, to sum up;

1. Stop acting like a moron, if you want to brag about an imaginary game, show some proof (impossible, aint it? )

2. Learn to use the damn edit button, or leave the forums.

3. Dont try to use other people's ideas to up your already horrible reputation on these forums.

4. And finally, dont assume we give a poop about your age, you'll find a tonne of the programmers on here started before 10. Really, we dont care.

You may very well be 10 years old, and this could be your first time using a forum, but thats no excuse to act like a jackass.

Right, rant done.

So first you have it in a shop and now it's out tommorow? Yeah right

By the way, you do realize that there's an edit button... Right? And did you also realize that you're not allowed to post your age if you are a minor? Whatever... Your age has been quoted anough times anyway.
