UPDATE: I'm going to try to keep the second post of this thread up to date with links to all of my games so you don't have to comb through the whole thread to find them.

Most of the games are web games. This is to let as many people play them as possible instead of requiring downloads and installation that limit which platforms they can run on. How well they work on mobile can be hit or miss but I've at least tried on all of the more recent ones.

_______________

So I'm working on a new game, and it occurred to me (and I confirmed with a forum search) that I'd never actually linked to anything I'd written!

So here's the game I'm working on right now, still in development but playable:

Gravity Runner
(old version)
Controls:
- Space: Jump
- Double-Space: Reverse gravity
- Right: Speed up
- Left: Slow down

You can only reverse gravity once per jump/fall, so no flying by toggling gravity back and forth. If you're not pushing left or right you'll settle at a medium speed.

Future plans: Platforms that are dangerous (one or both sides covered in spikes or something), touchscreen support.

My current high score is around 158.

That sounds pretty awesome Coda. o.o'

There was this one site that had this game where you... went between light and dark? Like the dark path would block your way on light, and vice versa, and you had to flip upside down to get across or something. XD IDEK.

If that sounds semi-interesting, I can see if I can't find it again. owo

[Coda]

If it sounds awesome, try it. XD That's a link, not just an underline.

[Vincent]

Oh no, I ment I found a game elsewhere like forever ago. XD So just wondering if you were interested in trying it.

I'm guessing you don't go to normal online game sites? O: /these sound like unique games. XD

I'm currently debating on which game I might try first on your list. o.o'

[Coda]

I don't often really have time. To me, hacking on code to make something fun is actually more fun than playing it. :P

[Vincent]

Ah. XD Yeah I know that feeling. /been on rpg maker for a while now

How do you come up with the inspiration for the game ideas ? :3

[Coda]

I dunno. It varies. Sometimes it's a matter of thinking of an interesting mechanic and building around it; sometimes it's just wanting to clone an existing game.

[Vincent]

Ah. XD sounds like me.
Have you ever thought of taking different mechanics or ideas from multiple games that would work well together, and mixing them together? O:

If I ever became a game maker, that's something I'd probably do. But... not bluntly. Just. Discreetly. Like, trying my best not to 'copy', but putting the idea there at least. XD IDK.
There are some game stuffs that would be SO awesome if they were put together. /:

[Coda]

Yes. Yes I have. And I won't say any more about it because that would be spoilers because I intend to make it a Trisphee feature. ;)

[Vincent]

Haha. xD Alright.

Ohh my gawd. Is lights out that thing where you're supposed to get all squares checked? XD Or unchecked?
I kinda suck at those games. o-O:

[Coda]

You're supposed to get them all unchecked.

[Vincent]

Ah. xD I'm on 99 moves and theres this one square that keeps popping up. Damt. X:

There's a cute game like that on GTDS where it's called monster hatch and baby... alien things call you 'momma' the entire time. XD

[Vincent]

Aww you made one of those games 8'D /trying samegame now
Those are always fun. X:

[Kilala Mikal]

These are really cool! I haven't tried the last two yet though. :) Good job, Coda!

[Coda]

I'll be the first to say that Same Game isn't a particularly impressive example -- it was an experiment to see what I could get to work in the PSP's (incredibly limited) built-in web browser. There's a LOT the PSP can't do.
