*snicker*<br><br>If you are serious, and I can't tell, then I can help.<br><br>Its been a while, but you can just make a bunch o' lines for the subroutine, and then use a gosub instead of goto with a return in the subroutine.

Well, I wasn't asking because that was back when I was 8 or 9 years old. I don't think my attention span was long enough anyway.

he...sorry.<br><br>When I was 11, and got my Vic20 (woo hoo), I did the gosub thing having NO CLUE what a subroutine was...I WAS A FARGIN' GENIOUS!<br><br>Yeah...so...what kind of game do I want to see?<br><br>Something new.  Not RTS, not FPS.  Something designed with the intentional target market on a PPC.  The concept built around that paradigm.  But as I can't come up with anything I guess I will have to wait.

2D Fighting, 2D Scrolling Fighter? Pet Rock app? How about some kind of mystery ish game, kind of like Myst, but with enemies and gaining experience? Gaining experience is what makes any game good, Diablo, Shattered Galaxy, Everquest. It's the motivitating force behind every good game.

A Diablo clone. That would be sweet. Sweet indeed!

Hey! I'm not saying I will do pacman, Larry have made it very very well. I'm just saying that I will do a Space invaders emulator in the same way ;-)

Because I like programming (specially small thing), because Mame is a big .exe (mameboy is 1.9 MB), and just for fun to use easyce and fmod ;-)<br>Why space invaders ? Because it's old and simple for starting.
