Hello, I haven't been with the community long but the appeal to this game is caught up with the lag and lack luster controls. I have intentions of not only re-applying this game with new controls, items, modes and a lag free network system, but to also re-render the game in 3d. For this project I have decided to use Game maker 8 with extensive Dll add on's to bypass the interpreted functions. I was wondering if this sounds like a good idea or if it something to be desired. I'm mostly learning about all the ins and out's of this game so I may adopt them into my project. I only have screen shots for now but in the future would need testers to make sure the functionality is up to par.

I love SS13, and if you were to come close to the game's
features, and make it 3D, I'd suggest you'd go to http://www.kickstarter.com/ for financial support, and give yourself the title Chief McAwesome. If you want to make the game really good, with a lot of features, I'd also suggest checking out Unity. It's an awesome 3D game development tool, which, with the free version, you could make a lot with it, aswell. If you do make the game, then I'd suggest to make it 3rd person, seeing as how you can make multiple floors in 3D, and build awesome roofs. You should probobally also get a bigger team than just you. Hell, a small team made Minecraft, and a group of friends developed Slender: The Eight Pages. |

The way you did this looks similar to how they did it in Pokemon 3D.. Cool.
I hope this will turn out to be the free 2Dish version of Centration |
Haha, that looks like SS13 as a DOOM wad.
I'd be interested to see how far you get with this. |

Not to say that it isn't possible, of course. You might have a look at Centration, which is an ongoing 3D project that is heavily inspired by Space Station 13. They've made some good progress and might be looking for help.
