A tycoon game by the community for the community :)

Do you already have anything in mind? It's much easier to collaborate on a project if you already have some idea of what the finished game will be like.

sounds interesting
I can do sound, programming, and ideas but not art
my art skills are uh well we don't talk about that XD
but I can come up with over 10 ideas in about 2 seconds
GAMELEGEND 2022-05-27 22:48
alright I have decided that I want to help make this game
Yoreni 2022-05-28 11:05 (Edited)
i have a bit of an idea what sort of game it will be i have 2 ideas actualy
1. one inspered of kittens game as there are resocures which interracts with each other that unlock as you progress (it wont be as many cos there is not as much space and to keep it simple so maybe at total 8). this game could also take some inperarion from meldor idle where there are xp levels and the higher the xp level it rewards the player.
2.more like a tycoon game where you buy generators and upgrade them as you get more money.
what are your guys opinion on the ideas
i attached a prototype
Yoreni 2022-05-28 12:45
you first see one resouce: wood. you can gather wood and that gives 1 wood and some wood xp. with this wood you can maybe use it to buy buildings which you can get people, wood could also be used to build farms to feed the people. people can be workers and maybe gives you money?
woodcutting could be one skill we will have 3 - 5 cos of the limitations. you can rank up these skills. you start at rank 0 and the max rank is 9.
what are your opinions on these?
GAMELEGEND 2022-05-28 13:37
@Yoreni i like that idea about ranking up skills because it gives people more things to shoot for and i think that you should have to pay the workers and the more workers you have the more paychecks you have to give
GAMELEGEND 2022-05-28 13:47
@Yoreni some good resources for a tycoon game would be Wood, Oil, and Steel
but a good idea would be to also add some very special resource that is not even real
GAMELEGEND 2022-05-28 14:12
now these are good ideas and everything but we have not even decided who is going to do what. I have seen this happen too many times so we need to get the train back on the tracks and figure out who is going to do what.
GAMELEGEND 2022-05-28 14:23
So i will start and we can work from there.
G-9: G-9 is already working on the UI
GAMELEGEND: I was thinking about doing the programming for the map and resources and things like that
Yoreni: you were talking about skills and workers and things like that.
Art: anyone but GAMELEGEND because my art skills suck
Sound: i can do music i'm not saying i will just that i can
Yoreni 2022-05-28 14:23
@GAMELEGEND thats a good i idea maybe Mythril or we can make somthing new up.
in my opinon i feel like we should come up with how the player progresses through the game and what the ui will be like. but when we make it my strong point is coding. some other people can help with the coding too. @G-9 can do sfx and art. @GAMELEGEND can do music. i dont know what @McPepic is good at. though what i said is still a bit vauge and we need to discuss what part of the task we want to do.
Yoreni 2022-05-28 14:24
oh rip i did not see ur new post in time. i could do game desgin for now
GAMELEGEND 2022-05-28 14:25 (Edited)
@Yoreni
i think we are all going to end up coding something
my strong point is also coding
GAMELEGEND 2022-05-28 14:37 (Edited)
I think this website is a good place to share files but do you guys think that we should communicate with discord so we get a notfication on our screen or a sound alert when someone says something
I think it would make things easier
G-9 2022-05-28 15:27 (Edited)
we could maybe tho that ruins the concept of forums
i also think we will end up with a featured program :)
Yoreni 2022-05-28 15:27
yeah we can talk on discord my discord is Yoreni#3265.
G-9 2022-05-28 15:28
we should make a group
GAMELEGEND 2022-05-28 16:01 (Edited)
i made a discord server for the project
GAMELEGEND 2022-05-28 16:02 (Edited)
so what are we going to call this game?
G-9 2022-05-28 16:15
well untitled for now :)
