I think dodge was replying to tony's questions/statement?

anyways, I don't think im going to have that much creatures in the game, but there is going to be a multiplayer part, in which you and another player battle out ur trained creature(like in an arena), the single player part is to train your creature, So it looks like that it won't be that slow after all.

this game that your making sounds pretty cool ... how does it work... each player has to train his creature and send them to battle?

[AsianSensation]

it's a pretty neat idea.

the game is going to be split into two parts, singleplayer and multiplayer.

In single player, you are going to recruit one monster, and train the thing, you'll be given quests so that you can learn new spells, or find new items for your monster. You have no direct control over ur monster(you can't go click, and he moves there). That's where the AI kicks in. The monster basicly developes a kind of personality.

The multiplayer part let you and another player battle ur monsters(damn, that statement sounded like Im making a pokemon game...). You still don't have direct control over the monsters, and when they fight, it depends on how well you trained them to adapt to situations(a monster that only fought other things for a few time will be less experienced in bluffing, observing and stuff like that). So there are alot of AIs invovled, and Im just trying to create the AI right now.

that's pretty cool.. u could make it like when u win a battle u get to take some of your enemies items... lemme know if u need any help with anything i'll be to help....

[AsianSensation]

cool, thanks homer, and everyone else for their input, I'll definitely ask if I need help

[naoki]

so this game is like a combination of black&white and pokemon
u could try something along the lines of breeding, where certain monsters u attain could create new ones. it doesn't have 2 b complicated, but special types needed for a certain situation

u should mine pokemon for some ideas. it may be a kid's game, but it's a novel idea.

and u can't forget about the environment. dunno if u changed this part, but if ur animal is gonna go destroying terrain, u'll need some factors which help or hinder its way

I think AsianSensation needs to learn some C++ to pull off all those calculations in real-time

heh heh, i am learning c++, but this program has to be done in turing(unless I make the game in C++, and then go Sys.Exec ("game.exe") hehehe...) So i may have to cut alot of ideas because of run time? what about I do alot of preliminary calculation at the beginning, like a loading screen?

good luck with the graphical element of the game ify our doing it in c++

hey asian, are we gonna have the town thing still?
