ZuneEmpire

Description of proposed game play:
ZuneEmpire would be a conquest game like
Age of Empires or Command or Conquer

The Main Objective is to destroy or capture all towns.

Basic Ideas:
You Will Use The TouchPad/Dpad to move a cursor which could be used to select farms,soldiers,or towns. you can also use to make soldiers attack other towns. when you select an enamy town, two options will pop up, Destroy, Or Capture

You will start out with the first upgrade of each catagory
-----------------------------------------------------------------
You have one main town which you can upgrade when you get enough conquest points.

Upgrades:
1.Hamlet
2.Village
3.Town
4.City

You have one main farm which you can upgrade when you get enough conquest points.

Upgrades:
1. 1/2 acre farm
2. 1 acre farm
3. 2 acre farm
4. 10 acre farm



In order to conquer more towns you must spend conquest points on warriors.

Upgrades:
1.Militia
2.Warriors
3.Raiders
4.Army

Conquest points would be earned by farming or conquering other villages.

Description of button mapping:

Touch Pad/ D-Pad - cursor moving

Middle or Play/Pause Button - Select/Attack

Back Button - Upgrade Selected Farm/Village/Militia

Tips/suggestions for developers accepting this request:

It Would Be a fun game and i am willing to help with backgrounds/sprites.

You could also make it different thats just what i was thinking

need more info PM me or Email at xxbobbyyyxx@aol.com

Thanks For Looking In - Fallen Hero

Good job using the request template

I'm not sure if a game with this complexity would work, though, unless Dirk (DiNoGames) made it

[xxafallenheroxx]

I Thought It Would Be Hard To make,altho with alot of work it could work

man if someone makes this it would be great

[AndroidAdam]

An RTS for the zune? That actually sounds like it could work. I'm swamping myself with too many projects, else I'd take this one on.

[Beef Taco]

I will help spread the word if you want.

That Would Be Awsome

Alright, I've decided to drop everything and work on this. If I can get a team to make sprites/maps etc... I think I can pull it off fairly easily.

sweet! i can make maps, and i might be able to make sprites

[AndroidAdam]

Alright, does the player need to pick up resources such as gold and bring them back to their base?

its up to you, your designing it, if you want me to right up detailed game of what i think it should be let me know, otherwise you can do w/e you want with it as long as its fun =)

A suggestion if I may, wouldn't it be more prudent to create your maps in a .txt file and then draw it in game with bitmaps created in Photoshop?

A tile based engine is really nice, which I think is what you're suggesting. However the camera system I use to scroll background maps while keeping track of where the sprites should be drawn based on camera position doesn't play well with tiles. Plus I don't think the efficiency trade off would be worth it, just my opinion.


Alright, just wanted to check how much free rein I had over this and any specifications you wanted.

as long as you make it im fine with anything. i did add a little more information in the first post tho. lemme know if you need maps made

[SmileDog]

Turn Based Strategy not Real Time Strategy.

[AndroidAdam]

No, it will be a real time strategy. Like age of empires or Command & conquer. I'm shooting more for age of empires.

Yeah maps would be great. I epic fail at creativity so If you could work out maps that look like they could actually be used strategically, that would be great.

[Beef Taco]

You should put this under development discussions.

Consider it done

So I should I post a new thread in a different forum? Sorry if I'm too nooby.

That's probably your best bet.
