Well, another semester has come and gone, and with it the hectic ebb and flow of college life. In its wake I found myself once again devoid of purpose within the realm of technology, and to find that purpose my thoughts once again returned to the Community Game.
School is, perhaps, one of the most distracting things imaginable, as I'm sure some of you are able to relate to. Now, however, I had oodles of time and nothing to put it in to so I'm going to start reworking the community game. Thing is though I'd like to open the floor for new suggestions as well as re-workings of the old design, just to see what everyone comes up with and whether there is anything more feasible or interesting than the old design.
The sidescrolling shooter bit, as before, is pretty much a cruise control deal, but I would like to make everything more modular. For instance, creating enemies whose sprites can be customized and behavior can be edited in a script file. I was even thinking of trying to make the game in flash, though I've never done a flash game before. The results could be catastrophic. Still though I was thinking it might be worth a try. Thoughts?
