Name: Blockdude
Description: The classic Calculator game with a mario esque character picking up blocks and creating a system of stairs to go to the next room/level.

Thanks in advance

this would probably be very easy to make, i think all the calculator games should be really easy, I dont see why not.

interesting.. althought the controls may be a little hard to work with

Left and Right to move
Up to climb blocks
Down to pick up block
Center to pause game and go to in-game menu with option to go to next song
Play/Pause to start/stop music.
Back to go back to Zune menus.

That would work well.

The down button picks up the block and the down button places the block. left = left ; right = right

Dragod beats me to it :P thanks

Bump.

Seriously this game is addictive. Let me know if someone needs help with anything. I seriously dont know anything about XNA, but I could give moral support!

That would be AMAZING! Nice idea. I play it all the time during class

blockdude eh? Well I must say that it sounds like an easy project for one to do.... if someone knew XNA but I doth not... but yeah... I'd be willing to do it except... I don't know XNA and my current project could be teaching me it... as I'll be experimenting as I go along... well if I ever learn XNA I'll be willing to do it... but I must ask you... how many levels?
The orginal game I think has 45 levels... and it'd take a little bit of time to complete it... and yes all of the calc games would be an easy portish... but you'd need to know how the games were orginally set up and how they worked to be able to port them in an orderly fashion... but luckily... or unluckily I believe that I'm the only calc programmer on these boards. Am I?
