But other than lacking some graphics and maybe bugs, it's a finished game. It doesn't need much else adding to it.
So it's time to start something new, but I can't decide what. And I have limited it to 3 things.
1. Remake War of Heroes again.
Pros:
It's probably the quickest and easiest of the 3 ideas I have to make and finish.
The old version got like a million players even though it was a horrible game.
I've actually started it but opted to put more effort into Manacept. I even have a demo here http://files.byondhome.com/TheMagicMan/WoH%203.zip (it's incredibly rough however, WASD to move, 12345 to use abilities, left click to attack, right click to use the selected ability)
Cons:
Man I hate working on these kind of games.
Graphics are an issue. I have no patience for them and I opted to make this game look decent so every single thing has like 900 frames and drawing is such a pain.
2. An unnamed survival game.
Idea is simple. You get stuck in a world, you survive in it. Think Minecraft with less lego, and more surviving.
Pros:
I've always wanted to make something like this so my motivation to finish would be high.
It'd be ace if I finished it.
Cons:
From a technical stand point, it'd be the hardest of the 3 to make. By far, to the point BYOND may not be suitable to make it.
This is the least finished of all 3 ideas and would take the longest time to finish.
It's almost certainly going to need a very good (and costly) server to keep it running if it's ever finished.
3. A roguelike.
The idea was simple, it's a roguelike. The dungeon has 7 floors, each floor has a random crystal on it. Each crystal is a colour of the rainbow. While that crystal is on that floor, everything on that floor is that colour of the rainbow. If you take the crystal the floor becomes grey. The colour the floor is represents how things act on it (if a floor has dragons on if, and you put an orange crystal on the floor, they are fire dragons, a blue dragon makes them ice dragons and so on) Your objective is to get all 7 crystals, and arrange them in the proper colour of the rainbow.
Pros:
Easy to make and I've started on it.
I've always wanted to make a roguelike and am likely to finish it.
I'll have to do graphics myself, but they can look ugly because it's a roguelike.
Cons:
Designing it to be fun and challenging without being cheap will be a difficult task.
No one plays roguelikes anymore.
So, which one should I do?
