I just started working on a game the other day, because I haven't made one in a while. Since I started working on it in my dorm room, away from all my other scripts, I was forced into making everything from scratch which a lot better than using legacy code.

It's an old-school RPG game, simple layout, but I wanted it to be done WELL, because I'm probably going to give it away just like every other script I've written. :/

Sounds great, good luck!

Haha there's a screenshot there, but my host is down. It should be back up soon.

Zeggy · « **Reply #3 on:** March 29, 2007, 06:37:20 AM »

It's looking good

Any chance of a live preview?

beam · « **Reply #4 on:** March 29, 2007, 04:17:30 PM »

Yeah definitely. Once I make it playable I'm going to put it up, and then I'll gradually add stuff from there.

looks like a good start B)

How would you describe the "target-game" you're making?

beam · « **Reply #6 on:** March 29, 2007, 04:26:57 PM »

It's an old-school RPG, just the standard battle, level up, make money, form a guild. Same old thing. That type of game is my favorite though, I miss the old-school RPG's

Sinzygy · « **Reply #7 on:** March 29, 2007, 05:10:29 PM »

i guess every php-game developer creates at least one of those old-school rpgs

I myself started out with these kind of games, but have now moved on to other genres.

beam · « **Reply #8 on:** March 29, 2007, 07:43:31 PM »

Haha one? That's all I've ever created, because it's my favorite genre. I always thought strategy games were boring, and referral games like Outwar and Kings of Chaos were always pretty annoying. I know there are still other genres, but I just make games that I would like to play myself. Of course, I do try to put a new spin on things once in a while.

Looks good beam.

I've started my vampire rpg game but I havent had much time to work on it this week as I'm in Los Angeles on a business trip (and my glasses broke the first day I was here...)

beam · « **Reply #10 on:** March 29, 2007, 11:59:50 PM »

I broke mine a little while ago, I just got new ones earlier today. Also thanks man, I'm working on the actual engine before I really flesh out the layout, I was just getting a general idea of the color scheme. Seeing a preview of your game would be pretty nice

Broda · « **Reply #11 on:** April 01, 2007, 10:10:42 PM »

Yeah, when I get a little further along I will definitely post links/pics and get critiques

beam · « **Reply #12 on:** June 22, 2007, 09:40:43 PM »

I finally got a host and domain, and my game should be up at www.rbrw.net in less than 24 hours. The game is by no means complete, but it will be playable.

Sinzygy · « **Reply #13 on:** June 23, 2007, 08:28:46 AM »

Looking forward to check it out!

Btw: what does the domain-name stand for?

dvd871 · « **Reply #14 on:** June 23, 2007, 11:34:37 AM »

Looks like the domain name is active. Time to put some content up there.

Lately, I've been working on a game framework. Everything is customizable from the types of money to names of the common buildings (bank, hospital, arena, gym, etc).

To demonstrate it, I made a version of it to look like my old favorite game, Robowars. It's not complete by any means, but check it out:

I'll also be putting up a lot of old unreleased games (as well as some sources) that you guys might find interesting.

Sinzygy · « **Reply #16 on:** June 24, 2007, 04:07:58 AM »

Looks good (allthough I already lost twice to you -_-)

Hopefully you'll finish it someday

sokii · « **Reply #17 on:** June 28, 2007, 06:59:03 AM »

nice game...needs a way to regen HP and Stamina way faster

beam · « **Reply #18 on:** June 28, 2007, 12:52:22 PM »

Haha yeah, I still haven't even set up the cron scripts yet. I totally forgot about that, I'll get right on it.

Sinzygy · « **Reply #19 on:** June 28, 2007, 12:54:49 PM »

Do this!

I will take revenge for my poor, crushed robot!

beam · « **Reply #22 on:** June 30, 2007, 09:51:00 AM »

Yeah, sorry about that. I should really add that to the Account page... if I ever get back to working on that game.

Lately my time's been going into Robot Fight.

Sinzygy · « **Reply #23 on:** June 30, 2007, 10:37:28 AM »

Don't really see much difference in the two games, but as I understood it, the other one was "just" a clone of a former game, right?

Well, I registered anyways just to look at it

But why such small text?

beam · « **Reply #24 on:** June 30, 2007, 11:44:07 AM »

Yeah, the first one was a clone, I really only put it up just to have it.

This one uses a lot from the first one, but with small yet important changes.

As far as the font size goes... I dunno. I think it looks good like that. I think the problem is that the entire layout is kind of cramped, I'll have to sort that out.
