2. There Is no "magnitude" of what I "just" said. I do not like 2D games because:
a. the vast majority of 2D games out there on the market are lame meant for 6 years olds, and are un-appealing to myself.
b. for Gameboy and are almost all stupid childrens games. Gameboy is the only source I know of that still produces 2dimensional video games, other than the internet.
c. their games are boring and simple. I do not like the boring gametypes and lame graphics.
Alright man, i didn't mean to offend you. I think you'll be suprised when you find that I am a mere 3 years older you. That's right, I'm 17.

By "magnitude", I meant that you had no idea how "big" of a statement you made. You are young and yet you claim to know everything about 2d games. Here are some of my favorite to enlighten you.

Sanitarium - you control a man who suddenly wakes up in a mental hospital, and you have to find out why you are there. Very strange creepy stuff happens and I found it very hard to play this game alone in the dark. It has a wonderful plot to it. :lol:
Image

Starcraft - the best and only strategy game I could get myself into
Image

Metal Slug - the best sidescroller still produced today, It's so good, they put it back on the xbox.
Image

Oddworld - The coolest sidescroller strategy game, you try to help your species by helping them escape from the tyranny of a superior alien race
Image

The Neverhood - the best thinking game I've ever played. You control klaymen and find out the secret of the neverhood through the hardest puzzles imaginable.
Image

But anyway, MAN, I did not mean to trash your dreams! I had dreams like you of making a game, but it disappointed me because it was so hard to do. I'm not belittling your potential, I really think you can do it, because you were so worked up about it and were so offended by what I said. This obviously shows that you have the motivation for it.

I like your attitude, but try not to be so harsh on 2d games.

Good luck with everything. Good job in not putting up with my sh!t.

He's absolutely right. We have many years of coding experience, and we're just saying this to make you feel like sh!t. We're just trying to help you realize how hard it is.

You want tutorials? Maybe if you see this, You'll realize the depth of complexity you're up against.

Metal slug is fun.I see it in arcades alot.Its addicting,and only costs a quarter.But the 3d games,cost you $1.
So wich would you rather play?I prefer the cheap one,cause you can play longer.

I like Earthworm Jim, that game was awesome. I know it takes alot of programming. I am working on learning this tutorial I found online. I will try to learn it sometime after school, right now it's 7:09 monday so I don't realy have time before school :roll: .


I'll stick with the engine I downloaded though :roll: :wink: .

OoO, don't be so quick to judge 2d's if you like classics such as EWJim. Think before you make such a grave statement about the wonderful classic games.

I don't like em cus I havent played or seen or even heard of any good ones. All I ever find are these stupid childrens games at WAL-MART. I HATE wal-mart. They sell **** for way over the top prices.


God damn children... I hate them to.

No don't bug me i am pissed off. My mom keeps being a jack ass. With all the shit she pulls I have probabaly lost years off my life from all the dan stress.

Yeah... well there's a slight *SNAG*... wal-mart OWNZ this town! ALOT of bussinesses wen out of bussiness cus of them and they are the ONLY major market corporation within here.

I live in a backwoods town with pretty much nothing to do. the population is 8,000 people.

I;ve never heard of eb games before. or that other one. However we can drive 40 mins to Lacrosse abd visit all the stores there including the mall. Before a couple months ago I had never been to a mall!!

I WILL post an update in a while I got some mechs drawn up and am aobut to model em.

For some odd reason, I think Grenadiac should have had a higher age requirement for the forums... something like 16, not 13... ugh... n00bs.
