Prison Guard
So in this what you do is shoot prisoners coming from a prison somewhere on the screen.(This does not have to be prison based. Just something along the lines.) The people could just be stick figures. The screen could just be like your looking in a scope like that Mole Hunter game. But there doesnt need to be a zoom feature.. Unless you'd prefer it.
Controls
Tilt Zune up down left right etc.. to aim. press the screen to shoot.
Also the guard is stationary as if in a guard tower killing the escaping inmates.
Makeable?

Very easy to be done, make enemies a list function and over time they move faster, and more of them? Your score increases as each inmate you kill, you get fired after a certain amount of enemies get by without dieing. Good idea.
Again could be made in seriously 3 days tops, problem is no money for the Developers and when you need the cash for your studio you gotta keep working on Xbox games...
I like your idea, might take a little time off to work on this. Give me some more details on your idea. Expand upon it more, be specific.

Yea I was thinking something simular were you would have a gun, first person shooter type view but no moving around u just tilt to look around and shoot guys that pop out kinda like virtua cop.
Well i guess you did already give some good idea's. Wait you think like how should the prisoners run Like should they start from the right go to the left in a straight line, and each start at different heights? Or like start at different screen heights but they zig zag on the screen? Idk since i'm going to make it i'd like to know what want in it. Also do you wanna be in the credits? If so, Game Designer : "What name you want?". Also one more thing tap anywhere on the screen to fire? For sounds what you feel'N? gun shoots?, head splats? Also head shoots only or?
I'll make it, Get back to me on these details though, not trying to be annoying but since the games your idea i don't wanna code something that you don't want in it and totally ripoff your idea/game name....

For the left to right zig zag idea they could probabaly start from left to right in a straight line at different heights to start off. but the higher up the levels get they start zig zagging going in curves and coming from the opposite direction also. and if i'm in the credits Just call me Peacock(its my last name). yes to the tap anywhere screen to shoot. and all those sounds are good.
oh and thanks for making this!! +rep
and a highscores menu would be nice. or if you get enough killed you can buy upgrades like where they all die or slower moving inmates etc.. also each level you can only let.. i wanna say ten? inmates escape before you are fired.

I wouldn't say that, depends how advance i make it, this could really get advance quick too. How many different enemy types and different paths they go, things get in the way, upgrades, high scores, different level backgrounds, scope recoil, collision detection is gonna be hell and back. The worst part for me though is the art, I'm trying to get a hold of are studios team artist but hes not responding so i think my 3rd grade art will have to do for now or at least the beta...
Edit: Found artist waiting on receiving artwork...

Well i have had all the basic code done for awhile and that's as far as i can go in till i get the art and yes high scores will make the cut. Literally all the code took tops 2 to 3 hours and all i have left to do is program the prisoners and add the art. I'm waiting on the artist i had 2 saying they'll do it but now they both aren't replying. I'm a programmer not an artist but tomorrow I'll try and contact them again no reply I'll draw up some sprites, it's not to big of a deal but i just don't want the app to be kinda pooy just cuz the art.
Well both artist still no reply. I'm just gonna draw them then, and release the game as a alpha. Then if i do find an artist then I'll update it, along with game patch's.
To my understandings i met all your request. (I'm not 100% sure what all of them where though kinda forgot) So far...
1.) High Scores (check)
2.) Your Inputs Request (check)
3.) Levels getting harder (check)
4.) You in Credits (check)
5.) Upgrade Store (waiting on art)
(That was it right?) My additions...
1.) Scope Recoil (waiting on art)
2.) Sound's (do last)
Thinks for you to consider...
1.) scope moves slightly(guard breathing), and you press a certain spot to stop, but limited time for stop, and need time to gain breath ( YES? or NO? )
2.) what type of upgrades?
3.) If your playing your own music sound effects off or still on or always off?
4.) game is in landscape mode right?
Fill me in on these last 3 idea's. Also anything I'm missing or you want to add? Anything might as well get everything wanted in if its gonna be made. Go big or go home...

For the upgrades maybe less recoil, longer time for it to stop, slower moving enemies, double points. thats all i can think of.
there should be an option for sound effects or not on a title screen or something.
and landscape is where its horizontal right? longways left and right? if so then yes.
For the upgrades maybe less recoil, longer time for it to stop, slower moving enemies, double points. thats all i can think of.
How about a longer time for holding your breath (to stop the scope shaking)?
Stronger bullets?
How about mines? Like, at the very beginning of the level (before the inmates start coming out), you can place three mines in the ground. While the prisoners are coming out, if they step on the spot where you planted one, it blows up. And you can upgrade how many you can plant.
Or is it too late to add that?
Idk, the mines would kind of be a pain in the ass to add at this point, especially with no artist still. I started drawing up some of the screens. I was testing out the accelemetor and maybe if i make the scope bigger it will be easier because damn it is hard to get that thing aimed. From the sounds of it upgrades automatic and a message just pops up when you unlock it?...
