So folks, I just want to tell you that I AM going to make that SC game. I needed to learn to code first and so I took a month to do just that and through my Lazer focus and training I think I am ready to make this game. I'm unsure which language I'll use to make it but I plan on at least prototyping with Python. So, my ideas?
-I want to funnel the SC live chat and topics into it and make it like a web server with connections to SC.
-I want it to have online multiplayer capabilities, with chess as one of the minigames of course but overall, I'd like it to be kinda like GTA where members with beef can literally kill eachother.
-Aesthetically,I want it to be birds eye view like Zelda, and have the weapons be a kind of class system with classes based off iconic SC members (Xadem as the arsebandit class who literally has his ass as the weapon, for example)
-Id like it to have open world and one on one deathmatches with locations such as Sweden, Ohio, Berlin, and Canada.
-Mainly combat based, real time. Plays like NES Zelda meets GTA.
Ambitious, right? And what do I need to be able to do that I don't know how to yet?
1. Create and animate the game's visual aspects, and learn how they tie into the code.
2. Successfully synchronize SC forum itself into a pause menu type deal that links into the game. I'm considering something like an embedded iframe?
3. Learn how the servers in online games work in the first place. (I know about listeners at least)
