Considering the lack of good hot seat multiplayer games out there, I decided that I should make one. So.. what should it be? I prefer playing a strategic game, maybe something like a combo between Civilisation and um... AD&D. But if you guys have any better ideas, let me know. I probably won't do anything deathmatch multiplayer coz there's too many out there and I prefer not to draw anything if I can avoid it. So... any suggestions?

Hot seat?

Sounds like something like something out of Who Wants to be a Millionare!

...So long as it's got nothing to do with Invasion of the Muz, I trust you'll make something worth while!

I would personally love to see something like AD&D made...especially multiplayer, that's like a new concept to me...AD&D...one on one...or many on many! That'd be sweet!

LOL, I meant a Civilisation clone. But since I don't do clones, I wanted to make something that would simulate an AD&D type of civilisation.

The last time I tried to make a pong game, it was planned to have about 5 3D video clips :|. Seriously. I got to finishing the 3D model of the computer and some walls, then I got bored and wandered off.

Besides, I'm not gonna make another low-tech game for about... a year or so . Or maybe a month. Depends on how badly I need to do another one.

I dunno. A pong game is STILL a pong game. Even with anti-aliasing, power-ups, shading, shadows, and storylines. Well, hotseat usually takes the storyline bit out.

I came up with a great Pong concept, and i was gonna use it for some Pong compo, but you know me cause, too bloody lazy! So i might as well spill the beans!

Essentially, through the use on good old trigometry your Pong paddle can move on a full 360 degree plain...and you can move in or out from the centre and you basically try to keeping it from going out of the screen when the ball is you colour.

The thing with this concept is it opens to doors for so many different modes of play...You could have stacks of players and stacks of balls in the one screen and it could be madness, although programming AI...TRICKY!

But your free to have the concept...not like I care or anything, i mean geez...it's PONG!

Here's an original idea: You and your friend (ENEMY) walk around in a platform world trying to insult eachother (RAISE MIDDLE FINGERS, FART UPON EACHOTHERS HEAD, LURE EACHOTHER INTO DOGGIE-DOO). You score by insult eachother, but when you insult (BY MAKING KEY COMBOS) you have to stand still. Bigger insults (LURE EACHOTHER INTO DOGGIE-DOO) take more time than the smaller. Well both of you will have to catch eachother while the enemy is insulting, giving you a high amount of points. That'd be great.

The insulting thing sounds like a good idea, if it were not for the fact that such a game would be bad for my rep and that I'm too lazy to draw. However, if someone else who happens to be reading this thread happens to decide to make use of the idea... well, that'll be interesting...

I guess all you guys must be on acid or something because you forgot to mention WORMS!!!!!!! The best turn-based strategy series ever! Worms 2, Worms Armageddon, Worms World Party- that's what I'm talking about!

Sad thing is that there's hardly any difference between Worms 2, Worms Armageddon, And WWP, but that's a different story.

In any case I assume by hot seat you mean turn-based and if so make a Worms game!!

They're harder to make though than you'd first assume. :/ A LOT harder to make. Seriously.
