Game inspiration!

Posted by TheBoogley May. 17, 2009 @ 8:23 AM EDT

Looking at this whole power of three idea thing, I've been thinking about possible game ideas.
I found this thing pretty inspiring... but I don't own any sheep. :(

I'm going to be working with Kajenx on the power of three thing, we just have to figure out what the hell we're going to make now... If you're reading this mate, I've been out of town for the weekend and have just walked back into the house. I'll try to catch you on AIM tomorrow... blah blah.

I got myself a book on flash game design and revised my skills in trig which wasn't so bad, but now I'm up to a bit about quadratic equations, which I just can't handle. I've been using actionscript on and off for a few years now and understand the language pretty well, but I'll be damned if I can remember any of the maths... poop. It's interesting though and I'm going to struggle through the book and hopefully come out with a better idea of what can and can't be done with the stuff, then I'll copy and paste things out of other people's code and call it my own! :D

here's a mighty gif created as part of a mighty part I made for a mighty collab for the mighty goatman!
mighty!

If you were a squid what would you write with your ink?

I have a sheep , and some LEDS.
Mine is tame so I can take it for a walk.
Some people are gonna be scared shitless tonight mwuhahahahaha

May. 17, 2009 | 8:41 AM TheBoogley responds:

"oh no... a sheep with lights... run," they will say.

then they will stop, turn around and say...
"wait, that's not scary... just weird."

I would write squid with my ink. That way peoples will know it is squid ink!

May. 17, 2009 | 8:42 AM TheBoogley responds:

but, being a squid you wouldn't have any hands to write with and you would be underwater... so there are flaws in your plan. :3

May. 17, 2009 | 8:41 AM super-sense says:

So you're doing the coding?

Damn, I would've loved to see you do the art for a game. Ah well, sure your entry will be the shiz.

May. 17, 2009 | 8:44 AM TheBoogley responds:

I'm doing the art, I'm just trying to understand more of the coding because that'll make me feel special, and hopefully stop me from asking stupid impossible questions of Kajenx when he's programming the game.

May. 17, 2009 | 8:42 AM Catoblepas says:

Listen to the ill shit. Listen to the ill shit. Listen to the listen to the listen to the ill shit.

May. 17, 2009 | 8:45 AM TheBoogley responds:

that sir is some bad ass squid shit right there :O

Oh good, I can't wait to see what you come up with for this game.

May. 17, 2009 | 4:30 PM TheBoogley responds:

Be gentle, it's my first game.

May. 17, 2009 | 9:18 AM AdamJack says:

Scratch that.
If I were a squid I would write aishbfuoqwAWDfbv dsdfga Splat!

May. 17, 2009 | 4:31 PM TheBoogley responds:

that's more like it! :D

May. 17, 2009 | 9:44 AM Kenzu says:

Awesome vid!

May. 17, 2009 | 4:31 PM TheBoogley responds:

baaa!

I CAN HELP YOU WITH YOUR PLOT I WRITE SONIC FAN FICTION
IF NOT I AM GOOD AT PROGRAMMING ONE TIME I MADE A BUTTON AND WHEN YOU CLICKED IT IT WENT DOWN
IF NOT I AM GOOD AT MUSIC THERE WAS THIS ONE TIME WHERE I SANG AND MY MOM LIKED IT

AS YOU CAN SEE I AM VERY TALENTED PLEASE CONTACT ME AT: 1-800-FLOWERS

May. 17, 2009 | 4:32 PM TheBoogley responds:

we could use a talented individual such as yourself,
but I'm sure you're too busy.

I would make a game about herding sheep into spectacular shapes.

It would then be hard.

May. 17, 2009 | 4:33 PM TheBoogley responds:

it's a good idea for a game, I'd play it :D

May. 17, 2009 | 11:59 AM Plaski says:

Make a game about sad lemon juice that miss her mommy.

May. 17, 2009 | 4:34 PM TheBoogley responds:

umm, I'm pretty sure that idea is taken. Ever seen the film Tootsie?

May. 17, 2009 | 12:25 PM Bell45 says:

that sheep thing was really cool

May. 17, 2009 | 4:34 PM TheBoogley responds:

I'm pretty sure large parts of it are computer generated, but I'm not certain.

May. 17, 2009 | 1:12 PM Kweaks says:

That sheep stuff is awesome, hard to imagine how long it took to coordinate that. I also found it funny that there were a few sheep who strayed off of the pattern... made my day.

Also, I know you've got kick ass art skills, and I'll assume that Kajenx is a good programmer... anyway if you need music just ask me, please. Old pal?

Also if I were a squid, I would somehow connect myself to a hydration system and then go onto land, and open a tattoo parlor.

May. 17, 2009 | 4:35 PM TheBoogley responds:

A tattoo parlour? genious!
I think Kajenx has already lined up someone for the music... :(

May. 17, 2009 | 1:14 PM Luis says:

Is that a male or female winged creature.

May. 17, 2009 | 4:37 PM TheBoogley responds:

good question Luis...
it's an androgynous pterodactyl...
they didn't have genitals, hence they are extinct

May. 17, 2009 | 2:09 PM AL3K says:

WOW that's pretty cool man!

May. 17, 2009 | 4:38 PM TheBoogley responds:

what is?

May. 17, 2009 | 2:24 PM Goat-Man says:

That pterodactyl seems awfully familiar.
Hm

May. 17, 2009 | 4:39 PM TheBoogley responds:

perhaps from a past life?

May. 17, 2009 | 3:04 PM Kajenx says:

LOL, I'll look for you on AIM. Hopefully Waterflame'll be on too and I can harass him about the music. :3 Maybe he'll have some good ideas.

I was thinking a brawler game (maybe a Donkey Kong brawler combo?) would be fun, but I'm willing to bet at least 10 other people will be doing that. I want to do something where you can just go crazy on the characters. :D

May. 17, 2009 | 4:40 PM TheBoogley responds:

go crazy? DON'T MIND IF I DOOO!!! :D

May. 17, 2009 | 3:21 PM xXxAlecxXx says:

i would take pictures of what i drew with my ink and make an animation

May. 17, 2009 | 4:40 PM TheBoogley responds:

you would have to use an underwater camera :3

May. 17, 2009 | 4:49 PM Lost-Chances says:

Just a pity my programming and artistic talent is non-existent.

Maybe you should do it?

May. 17, 2009 | 4:58 PM TheBoogley responds:

maybe... but probably not.

May. 17, 2009 | 7:55 PM s0ckmaster3401 says:

I think that having the game involve sheep is a very good Idea but molding sheep into different shapes sounds kind of strange. By the way nice androgynous pterodactyl.

May. 17, 2009 | 11:40 PM TheBoogley responds:

put the sheep in a blender, then sculpt their guts into a variety of shapes! :D

May. 19, 2009 | 8:43 PM Kweaks says:

You might be getting waterflame?
You fucker.

May. 20, 2009 | 4:30 PM TheBoogley responds:

WHO TOLD YOU??!!! :O

May. 20, 2009 | 4:57 PM Kweaks says:

Well if you get Waterflame that would be absolutely cool and I would be glad for you. You're going to make a kick-ass team.

Also, I might be starting a collab at the beginning of summer, I'm afraid you'll have to join when I do.

May. 20, 2009 | 6:02 PM TheBoogley responds:

i'm afraid i will too :3
