Game clones I'd actually like to see.

[Rokkuman]

It seems that some people enjoy making exact clones of games, but they keep picking the same thing, like pac-man, zelda, and final-fantasy. Here's some clones that I'd like to see be made, and if they aren't made, I just might make them myself, we'd sure need some.

-Monkey Island
-Megaman
-A (real) Street Fighter clone
-Jazz Jackrabbit
-Any 3D Racing game.

These would be some good clones in my opinion, but not if they're *exact* replicas. Raven:yoyo commando to Megaman is kind of what I'm talking about.

- Dune2
- Earth 2140
- Skyroads
- Commander Keen

Dune 2 you say? Arrakis is the answer.

...dunno if it's still up at qb45.com...

[Hard Rock]

Dune 2 you say? Arrakis is the answer.

No its, Arrakis,,,,,, 2 that is the answer. Done in C and allegro. But its still in dev. I can dig around for the link if anyone wants it.

Monkey Island

Apparantly lucas arts 100 other adventure games arnt enough. Or the flash remake at newgrounds

A (real) Street Fighter clone

What? a emulator designed for street fighter doesnt count?

Jazz Jackrabbit

Number 2. And hundreds of others of games done at that time. On consoles. Does it need jumping bunnies?

Any 3D Racing game.

Erm, counts... uh were only at the 1000,0000,0000,0000 one of those, of you meant in qb? Well ask pasco what happened to the one he made. But rels is good enough looking anyways.

Megaman

There are tons of knockofs of megaman that were released, im guesing here, but i can garuntee you there are many, just go look for some nes or snes roms.... bet you they have roboman X2. or something like that.


Oh, you meant qb games?

[Piptol]

-Any 3D Racing game.

How bout this one?



Unless of course you meant *real* 3d.. in which case you can check out groove buggies. I didn't like it tho :roll:

Pfff... Now note these two lines and tell me if Megaman was talking about allegro:

"I just might make them myself, we'd sure need some"
and
"Raven:yoyo commando to Megaman is kind of what I'm talking about."

Monkey Island

BlueScr is working on a pseudo SCUMM engine. Does that counts?

A (real) Street Fighter clone

Sick gameplay and ugly keyhandler, yeah, but a SF clone, without doubt.

Jazz Jackrabbit

I'm sick of Mario here and Sonic there... and you want Jazz?

Ah... and talking about Groov Buggies:

Groov Buggies is no longer being developed (as of the 22nd of April, 1998).
However - MAJOR bugs might be fixed if reported to me.

There are a few reasons for this:
The thing was getting to big
As a result new things couldn't be added, one more command and it wouldn't complile.
3D mode was FAR too slow, mainly because it had to do the 2d screen as well for collision detection.
Screen mode 7 was too slow as well
Memory requirements were a bit extreme
GROOV BUGGIES II HAS STARTED!!!

Now the question is: Groov Buggies 2? Where?

And talking about your sig, well, I haven't used that just because I always work alone.

Yeah I played that one. Beleive it or not though, that's one of the best QB fighting games out there. That's why I beleived that QB Fighting games needed some more population.

Try BB2 and I bet you'd worship Hex.

JJ2 rocks! Best co-op sidescroller ever. To some extent I'm modelling Microrush2 after it (the frenzied gameplay and smooth scrolling), but that's not in QB, and I'm not sure a Jazz clone would be possible in QB even with libs.
