Resident Fascist Posted January 12, 2012 Author Report Share Posted January 12, 2012 I'm going to post the entire system mechanics later. Though, it'd be pretty confusing if you don't have knowledge of fighters. they'll be in this post. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kizzi Posted January 12, 2012 Report Share Posted January 12, 2012 [quote name='burnpsy' timestamp='1326330655' post='5760345'] Something I should note, Cursed, is that what the big companies do is irrelevant unless you're an indie title that makes it big like Portal, Minecraft, or Cave Story. The price range is normally too different to overlap ($1-10 VS $40-60) [/quote] I'm just going to point out that I wouldn't really consider Portal to be in the same group as Minecraft/CS (no pun intended) as Valve were pretty well established before that. But anyway, @op you really have two choices: create a fairly mainstream game and hope you can get enough publicity, or do something more interesting and try to switch the genre up a bit. If you do the latter and it ends up being fun, you may (or may not, starting off as an indie dev probably isn't easy) get a fair amount of recognition, as a lot of successful indie games nowadays do. I don't really play loads of fighting games so I couldn't tell you exactly how to go about doing that, and besides it's really up to you anyway.

Kirun Wolf Posted January 13, 2012 Report Share Posted January 13, 2012 One of the problems with "ideas" is that anyone can come up with them. "Ideas" get you nowhere. If you are serious about your idea becoming a game you need to write out the ENTIRE plot. You need to have pictures of ALL the characters. You need to have bios, descriptions, outlines. Then after all that, you have to have an entire design document outlining every aspect of the game and the player's experience of the game. Once you have done all that, plus developed a working demo of your game in whatever format you want to release it in, you might get someone to pick up on it. They won't buy it from you, but they'll sure as heck "help" you by taking all your hard work and making money off it. You might get your name in the credits too! The point here is, unless you make the game yourself, you are never going to have your idea turn into a reality. I'd write a book before I tried to get a game made.

burnpsy Posted January 14, 2012 Report Share Posted January 14, 2012 Theoretically, you'd assign names [i]after[/i] making the songs. I always give them names after at least writing lyrics... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
