Hey y'all, it's me. Well, there are 3 things you need to be aware of.

#1- I'm closing in on my 3 year BYONDiversary.
#2- I been playing Ninja Gaiden for the Xbox lately.
#3- I checked out my old HRH clan website and the clan sounded kinda... "ninja-ey".


So I decided...why not come back to coding on BYOND? I was thinking of basically making a game where you are a ninja in "Ninja World". You can hone your skills as you wish, own your own clan house with your crazy ninja friends, furnish your houses, build your own houses, make your own clothes, make your own food, etc. Kind of a "let everything run itself"(Economy wise)like in HRH. But not entirely. I'm not trying to do anything special here just trying to get back into coding. What do y'all think?

Like I said in Chatters, I think it's a pretty good idea, but then again, I've been relatively game-less for quite some time now. It seems like it could get repetitive, unless you had a lot of skills and interactivity between players. I'd suggest looking up some stuff on REAL ninjas, and how they were basically farmers who were discriminated against, and moved out of their homes to make their own society. I don't think any of them were what we consider ninjas today, but I'm hardly even barely knowledgable about the subject. Anyways, good luck with the game, and if you need anything, let me know and I'll try to help.

I think you should check out http://games.byond.com/hub/Stimulus/TheNinja

And i'll be glad to assist you in anyway.
Sounds fun, but you should be sure to research ninjitsu so you don't come off as an uninformed wannabe. You should begin your research at the Official Ninja Webpage! ;)

ninja != farmers

Karate was started by farmers, it is true.

Ninja don't know karate.

Ninja, do, however, know ninjutsu.

Ninja were assassins hired by noblemen to do their dirtywork. They were nicely paid, which is more or less the opposite of being a feudal Japanese farmer.
Hee hee, sounds like fun! I was gonna try and do a Ninja game based off the all-time classic Pen & Paper RPG 'Ninja Burger', maybe you could check it out?
I'd use the Ninja Burger 'SAKE' system for combat anyway.
Good luck!
[EDIT]
I just did the Ninja Clan Quiz on the web-site, I am:

Where is this SAKE system that you speak of?
So you'll have, like, ninja miners harvesting ore so that ninja blacksmiths can make shuriken, which they then trade for some neat ninja outfits from the ninja tailors?
A self-sufficient Ninja economy game sounds very cool! There is so much you could do! Mining, Smithing, Farming, Security, Fishing, Assination, full out wars, martial art school, duels, everything!
