A warm-up proposal


Just to warm up and to show our combined power, I thought it might be fun to create a Breakout-style game. (Breakout AKA Brickles, Arkanoid, Alleyway, etc.) Not just a lame version like the one linked to, but one on par with a Super Nintendo version. Powerups, cool graphics, music, explosions, special bricks, etc. I think it would be pretty easy. If we wanted, we could seriously have this game done in a week or two. The game could have a particular 'theme' or 'look' about it - maybe the ball could be a George Bush or... Steve Irwin face or something. (Is that too disrespectful?)

Collaborate and Listen

So here's an idea. Let's use this blog to share ideas for games we can create and distribute over the web using Flash. Not just ideas, but also (eventually) images, sound effects, music, etc. Games to jointly create and to own and to use on web sites, portfolios, whatever. I think at best it could generate revenue and at worst, it'll be fun.

Here's what we can do:

1. A game playable over any web browser, with a centralized high score list.
2. Animated sprites with multiple states.
2. Use of the keyboard and mouse.
3. Photoshop graphics with transparency
1. WAV and MP3 sound effects and audio

We should be able to make a pretty kickass game between us. Anyone have a game idea, or a theme? Let's collaborate, bitches.
