Platform Game Ideas?
Monkey Archive Forums/Monkey Discussion/Platform Game Ideas?
| ||
| I have been programming a very old darkBASIC game that I made in Monkey (lost the original source years ago!) Does anyone have any cool ideas for additional interactive objects? I am stuck for more ideas and have stolen quite a few from sonic as its the only platform game I've played (other than Hocus Pocus!)... so far I've implemented: Moving Platforms Spikes Spring Switch Block (e.g. can only land on it when its active which alternates on and off) Pinball bumper Breakable Crates Flying enemy and walking enemy Sort of cannon, that fires the player across the screen Any help would be greatly appreciated :) |

| teleporters mind control devices exploding things remote control things monkeys (can never have too may monkeys) water Ladders Boats |

| Thanks, they are some great suggestions. Monkeys chucking bananas may have to be added! :P |
| ||
| how about an impeding doom feature like rising water, or spreading fire |
| ||
| mmm yeah fire would be great fun, but that could be a whole game itself! |

| how about Disolving/Collapsing floors Ropes to swing over obstacles or reach secret area's Trampolines Anti Gravity ( perhaps a switch that reverses gravity for a short time ) Acid dripping from ceilings birds dropping ... droppings icey floors sticky floors quick sand ? ( you cant stand still for too long ) an umbrella to let you jump over larger distances. A fog horn that stuns nearby enemies for a short time. A speed tablet that slows the world down around you for a short time. |
