Default Is This possible?


Instead of making a game request, I figured I'd ask the experts.

I'm sure you've heard of the game free rider & free rider 2.
I'm asking if it's possible to make two programs.

#1 A free rider for zune, minus the editor part.

#2 A program to "translate" the saved maps on your pc to zune's coded language.

Therefore allowing you to make maps on your pc (even better if you have a tablet) and upload them to your zune. It's not that hard to understand what I'm saying.Thankyou for reading this and if you are a programmer please post your thoughts.

1) for the game, I'm not sure, never heard of it, but if it isn't a game that needs too much, like a simple get to the finishline, but first get through these obsticles type game, than sure, it's possible.
2)and for the map importer, it would have to be apart of the game, and it would depend on what kind of file it is. if is some strange file extension that is only useful to that game, than chances are, someone would have to program the maps in seprately, though I suppose that someone may be able to create an importer for it.

but that is just my thoughts/ opinions...

It is possible, though for the maps, it would be done a bit different.

is it like line rider at all? I know there are ways to make things using numbers, as each number represents a drawable object

you could make a map using numbers, and the certain numbers would draw a certain way...

someone's breakout type game does that... forget who's. ledZepps maybe?

well, in the game you just create a course, with ramps and jumps and drops and all, and u can pick different things to use as u, usually most people use the dude on the bicycle, then you ride your course, it's pretty cool and you can make ridiculous drops and ramps. It's somewhat the same idea as line rider, but i think it's much better.
