Dev wants some Help with Game Ideas
Posted: Sun May 01, 2011 13:18
Hey guys don't know if you've seen the most recent blog post, but the dev of this game is looking for some ideas to make the game more unique and not so much a minecraft clone.
These are some of my ideas I posted,
"I would try to get away from the exact Minecraft clone too, people are dumb and complain. That being said I have couple main ideas to add more content but not make it a minecraft clone at all.
First, I think you could do something maybe space oriented. You would start off in your normal world and you can gather material to make a spaceship and go out and explore other planets to get resources that didn’t exist on your planet. Plus you could make space stations design different ships that go faster. Lots more could be added to this, find random alien race that may be peaceful or hostile. Epic space battles.
Second, Something with time travel, sort of like the space idea but instead of different planets you go to different time periods. There would be different mobs, maybe different plants and trees. Not as much could be added to this as the space idea but it still could add more content that otherwise is not included at all in Vanilla Minecraft.
Third, Add magic and enchantments to weapons and tools, add some more story to it. Or more advance weapons like guns and stuff. Maybe have controllable NPC so you could build towns, cities, and an army. You could go take area with your army or take them peaceful by winning their trust somehow. It would be nice not to feel so alone when playing single player.
These are some ideas off the top of my head, can’t wait to see what direction you take this game in."
So what do you guys think of my ideas or maybe you have some better ones, either way post your thoughts and lets help take this game in a new direction.
