I'm making a game called Jack Spine! Here's the story:
Jack, an 11 year old porcupine, has to stop the evil Jiggan Jibberson, who has scatteres the 5 sacred jewels of Bonasia across the land.
So, what do you think? :?: :?:

Genre? Programming language/tool used? Any screenshots you could show us? The story is, to be honest, bad (the concept of having to find magic jewels/rings/keys/spirits/cheesecrackers is way overused), but that's okay if the game itself is good; take the Super Mario Brothers games, for example. Do they have a good story? No. Are they fun? yes. And that's why they're popular. Actually, the only type of game needing a good story would be an RPG or Adventure game.

I'm using the games factory, and it's gameplay is kind of like kid mystic, except you have to collect stars instead. The reason the story sucks is because it was supposed to star a wizard, but I couldn't make a good sprite. The actual story is longer, but I was lazy. And also, If it sounds repetitive to you, consider this. You love Dr. Lunatic and Kid Mystic, don't you? Aren't they pretty much the same concept?
Congratulations, spiderpumpkin, your post just lowered my self esteem. :cry:

Don't take it that hard, if a little critizism hurts you, then you will not won't be ready to take opinions from the general public. Critizism is half the journey in making a game, and potential game makers have to put up with tons of it. And SP even said, if your game has good gameplay, the game's plot won't really matter.
You love Dr. Lunatic and Kid Mystic, don't you? Aren't they pretty much the same concept?
Do you mean they are similar to each other? Then my answer is: not really. Dr. L is about building levels, unlocking secret stuff, getting brains, candles and keychains. Kid Mystic is similar in the sense that you have to collect one main type of item, the green orb, but the other stuff is way different. The Armageddon sword is like the four keychains, except it unlocks a new, better weapon. Do realize that SP was not trying to hurt your feelings, just trying to make a small point.

I now realize that. I apologize, spiderpumpkin.To make up for it, would you like to be a boss in my game? :?:

:lol: SP would make a good boss, he could be a spider made out of a pumpkin, or something else relevent to the name.
