Dude, maple shall be played. I’ve been craving it, and a skate.

If you want a game about contracting HIV I’m free friday. Mauled by penguins, saturday.

Also, I’m just saying look to games where it has been done well for inspiration – don’t copy it blatantly, and don’t let those games be ALL you look to! Come up with your own ideas, and then use the ideas in other games to supplement them.

For example, I was playing Super Fucking Amazing Meat Boy the other day, and noticed this wicked fog effect. I then took that idea, put it in Mr Runner 2 and made the fog speed up when you’re running fast, to create the illusion of speed. You dig?

um @yunablablabla my lvl 123 shadower is not my avatar… my avatar is my 20 year old Caucasian male (Sydney).

Hey Sash i was looking for advice. what if i want to create a game about contracting HIV or being mauled by a penguin, what game would you suggest playing to gain an understanding of the experience?

on a more serious note… if all experiences are taken from other ideas how will any unique gaming experiences be discovered, rather than just old games with unique variations? please enlighten me oh wise actionscript sensei.

so to create a game about a viral outbreak whilst in space i should play dead space so then when i go to design my game i design dead space?

james …. my 300+ hours on my final fantasy x save is much more impressive then your lvl 123 maple avatar. -_-
