Some Game Ideas
Ok here's a kind of action game which I have been dying to play if I can get my hands on. It involves an epic battle of castle offence and defence. The closest I come so far in such a scene would be Lord of the Rings the Two Towers. But anyway here goes...
Castle Siege
Since we're using gamemaker the perspective would be top down aka Warcraft 2. I notice in WC2 usually some troops would just beat the crap out of some buildings and the only way to defend it is to beat the crap off the enemies.
But this time is a full scale castle offence and defence. You have to strategically place your troops on various point of the castle wall. It wouldn't be turn based as it would look pretty much like Romance of Three Kingdoms. What I would ideally want is possibly recreated scenes like those in Kingdom Of Heaven.
The whole game could be about castle sieges. Attacking an Ancient Chinese Capital would be different from engaging A Roman Capital and so on. Sounds pretty much like age of empires but it would be more action based. And no miniturised buildings that just sit there waiting to be torn apart. Troops can march straight into a town and destroy aspects of it.

The game sounds exciting and interesting. One issue here is that the gamemaker create games in 2-D right? So will it be good to make this game out of 2D features?
Is there an example where I can log on to see similar games? Because in my mind flashes images of those like Civilisation or WarCraft. hehee
Maybe we can make it more innovative, rather than recreate scenes. This is what we have to do right?
cheers
Eh thanks Joshua! I'll play that game, yeah my type of game would probably look like stronghold 2...
Jying, agreed, my idea do draw from the above games that you mention. Of course there is a need to be innovative, that's the whole idea of the course eh!
