Well, recently I came up with a simple idea for a pretty good game. However, I totally lack the skills to make it. Someone could teach me how, but that would take too long. I was hoping we could do a collab perhaps and I could make some pixel graphics for it and you could do the programming. It's a relatively simple game in fact. Please don't use my idea without asking for your own purposes, for it took a while to come up with this idea even though its pretty crappy and I would feel ripped off. ;)

Well, the game of course would have some kind of character. You start off on the ground, and in the middle of teh screen is a pole. On this pole will be little planks a little wider than the character that alternate between left and right. Ex. plank on right plank on left etc etc. These planks would be randomly spaced apart (vertically) the maximum spacing being the maximum height of the jump, minimum will be just walking across. I think the scoring will be try to get as many steps passed as you can, or as many in least time, or get to top in least time, or something like this.

If you wanna help, please reply. Or, if you have some kind of idea where I could find some help programming this game (yes, i do have flahs mx), then please tell me. Thanks a bunch.

Well not really. It's really pretty simple. Just a guy jumping from plank to plank up a pole really.

Like that. The poles, as I said, alternate left and right and are randomly placed vertically as long as the guy can reach it. Basically it's just to try to get the highest amount of bar things passed. I thought of it a few days ago when playig save teh sherriff and there was a pole just like that, and it was pissing me off how hard ti was to get off ;) . Of course, teh character would have some sort of movement script with momentum so they could slide off the planks

edit: ugh, it didn't insert the spaces. OK, just pretend before ever little "||" or "||_" that there are 2 spaces, so that the "||" align with each otehr

well what i always do when i have an idea for a game is first to get the graphics out of the way (it could be just squares and simple stuff and then change em for the final ones, or start with the final ones) and then start experimenting with code, that idea isnt that complicated to do, try to do it with kirupa.com tutorials and some help from the forums
