Title: Who wants "ZGM - Zelda Game Maker" Back?
Post by: 2awesome4apossum on May 07, 2006, 01:59:30 am
Okay, so I was thinking about it.  What did I love so much about ZFGC?  Well, I said to myself, all of the freaking awesome projects stand out to me most!  And we haven't had nearly as many since the switch to Gamer's Advanced, back to here.  So I was thinking... let's revive the old projects!  So I was talking to Helios about ZGM, and how I wanted him to continue working on it.  I said that I was going to start a petition.  You know what he said?

lol, well if you can get a petition with, oh lets say 100 sigs i may redo it (though i probably won't be as feature rich, i dont have the time to do a complex one)

He went on to say that it'd be open-source too in a later PM!  Basically, I'm asking EVERYONE to sign this.  Please, recruit old members to put their names to it (I know that I sure will), and please sign it yourself, and make other people aware of it!

And for the first name, I'd l'd like to put: 2awesome4apossum.

I'll be editing the list as it grows:

Helios was talking about this in chat. I think its a greay idea but I came up with a really good idea. You should add 3d functions for Oot type games.

Ask, and ye shall not receive.

Please don't deter from the topic like that anymore.

I think that RGD would be better to focus on. ZGM was kinda cool, but RGD just looks like it would be a much better, broader version of it.

I'm also excited for RGD, but I also want ZGM.

Anyway, we almost have 20 names!  w00t!

Well, I said to myself, all of the freaking awesome projects stand out to me most
Many of the projects now are complete !@#$%, reincarnations of past projects which have been cancelled, and those that haven't haven't made any progress. All in all, say there were 100 WIP's: I'd say for every 100 WIP"s that the board churns, out, 10 are of quality, and 5 are really great, and 3 have gameplay that is true to the agme style of the game which it replicates.

My honest opinion.

Better off when someone makes a zelda engine for RGD lol.
If the bytecode translator for RGD is a seperate program accepting arguments for translation, a visual zelda RGD IDE could be built around it by anyone! ... But thats probably not going to happen, so ... zelda engine for RGD at some point so he can concentrate on that.

Okay, I'm ready to go with restarting Zelda Game Maker.  However, there are some things that need to be done before Helios can start coding it.

So I need a bit of help: I need a few people to help with sprites (not neccessarily make, but probably more like ripping/finding them).
