I recently thought of (TingThing, please read!)
« on: July 04, 2019, 05:39:05 PM »
I don't really care to make a game like this myself, but I thought I would throw out this game idea just for the fun of it. I'd call the game, "Platform Builder: Attack of the bugs." The plot would read something like this:
"The world of computers is amazing. Writing programs is one of the most amazing things you can do with a computer. But along with EVERY computer program, there are enemies created! BUGS! GLITCHES!!! And Platform Builder is no different! Platform Builder is under attack! And it's TingThing's fault for writing faulty code! Help TingThing fix these issues, by fighting back the bugs in Platform Builder!"
Sounds interesting...Right? You could make a game for any program like this. But it was just a thought. It would be cool if someone took that plot line, and then made it into a game someday. Why not I make it? Well, for starters, I have a bunch of games I plan to release over the years. ASM will be my first one obviously. That'd just be another project to tackle that is not super important to me.
What would the gameplay be like?
I envision the players in a world of code. Where the background is filled with screenshots of code from the UPE, and circuit boards. The characters fight off the bugs by having fights, and fixing the code! Hey, maybe the main player could be Matthew Tingblad himself!

Anyway, I'd love to head a project like this. But IDK when I could do that. So, if someone who loves Platform Builder a lot could make a game like this, I encourage you to make it!

It was just an idea. You guys can fill in the gaps.

A barely noticeable "okay". Did anybody else notice that?

I noticed it but didn't take it anyhow seriously because people have started to add just symbols, pictures or nothing for another post so I probably just thought it is another type of joke or meme. :D Now reading your question I understand I remember that the forum did it to me also time after time sometimes when posting. ???

Yeah. I wish people would just communicate like normal people do-

Come to think of it, it is kind of becoming the "new" normal.

Maybe this game could be structured like "Minceraft Story Mode"

I wouldn't know what you mean because IDK much about Minecraft Story Mode. All I know about that is the title.

You should play it, or Tales From The Borderlands, or The Walking Dead, etc.
