Currently Unnamed Dragon Game (See latest post)
« on: June 12, 2013, 01:27:39 pm »
Would anyone be interested in a dragon-centered game?  I'm going to be programming one in Java either way, but I am curious as to what people would think about it.

It is going to be 3d if I can find someone who is able to make decent quality 3d character graphics.  Otherwise it would be more like Daggerfall.  Actually, when I think about it, I have to make it 3d for the sake of the 3rd person camera.

Some people I know would consider I have an obsession with dragons, which means that I will continue to work on this game because of that.  (might be evident on the forums, since 2/3 of my mods have dragons as playable characters, and my remaining mod has dragons as an NPC civilization.  Combine that with 3/5 forum games I started have dragons in them, and one of those 2 didn't have dragons because the plot failed before they could come into play!)

The level of procrastination I have mandated that I make this thread, so that people can remind me to work on this.  Really, this whole thing will be a learning experience for me, because I don't have a clue how program in java...

A dragon game I am going to try to make easily modifiable, and a point in order to upload your own additions to the default character customization (that is, if I can figure out how to do that for the latter, and my code isn't too messy for the former!).

Poison

You know, you could call the Poison dragon a "Hydra"

It would even allow you to differentiate between the dragons further and take away the Dragon's weakness.
