Game Ideas / Re: I lost motivation (Discussion about Burnout and How to Recover)

Iwas reading a old mag at work the other day about something called gamification or gamify.  The idea is based of rewards for best a level or whatever in a game. The point is you set up a scoring system for a task and make it a game giving your self positive reinforcement as you progress to the next level.

You could also try using actors for the background and move the BG actors instead of the plane. That way you can have a endless level.

I've been on other sites that did something like this (anim8or.com for one).  It starts off strong but after a while it started to die down. But that being said I'm all for this. Just think it should be more like every 3 months.

I had some free time at work and started thinking about my past a bit and i remembered my first released game.  It just got me thinking and i was wondering what some of your first games were.

My little gem was called Cyrus the virus.

its hard to say without seeing your code but it sounds like you set the y to the ship and not the bullets.  if you post your code you'll get a better answer.

if your looking to make money with this be careful.  it looks like you could have big problems with copyrights and things like that.  that being said, this would be a game I'll enjoy.  best of luck.

I'm sure something like this is around but a man Hunter game. The target gets a head start and you'll have to follow the trail ( footprints, broken branches ) things like that.
