Lately I've had the urge to make a game. But a game needs a framework; so I'm working on a framework/Game at the same time. I'll have a video demonstrating the generation of enemies soon.

The game I'm making WILL be text based, but the framework will can be easily converted to graphical usage.

Framework Progress :
Enemy Class :

• Elemental Classifications
  


• Locational Generated Sub-titles
  


• Generating Health
  


• Generating Mana
  


• Generating Names / Subtitles
  


• Easily added / Edited Monster
  


• Mini-Boss Generation (Bosses will have their own class)
  

Video of old class (I have made some updates) :




Player Class :

• Checking if a Player Can level up
  


• Exp to Level algorithm
  


• Class bonuses
  


• Damage
  

Game Progress :

• Story-Line developed.
  


• Classes
  


• Sandbox and Story modes. Interchangable
  


• Game settings (Difficulty)
  

Ideas / Need-to-be-Done :

• Shops
  


• Arena
  


• Finish Framework
  


• Boss classes
  


• NPC's
  


• Random dungeons
  


• Quests
  


• Anything else I think of.
  

Changelog :
September 29'th 2011 :
Started the project
Made a beta of the Enemy class
Started work on the player class
Leveling up

October 6'th 2011 :
Enemies done
Items done

If you have any questions, comments, concerns or anything else; just post and I'll try my best ( tp X, X, or X)

so it will be a textbased game or are you going to use 2D/3D graphics? IF yes i would suggest the XNA framework.

For the A / An you can improve the logic and check the "enemies" name for e,a,i,o,u and if it is you write AN otherwiese A

for examle (pseudo)

PHP Code


<?php 
List<char> aeiou = new List<char>{ 'a','e','i','o','u'}
string s1 = "Skeleton";
string s2 = "Elephant";
if(aeiou.Contains(s1[0].ToLower()))
Console.Write("AN");
else
Console.Write("A");

It will be a text based game. For now.

My bad, I did not read the whole post and scrolled down =) i re-read it :-D

are you using any kind of database to store information like available monsters and their stats etc.?

Then i would recommend (if it's should be easy) SQLite + FluentHibernate

I'm interested in helping / working with you...will it be open source?
Then you could upload it on GIT or SourceForge and we/people could work and help you, it would be cool if we can create some kind of MU online clone :)

I havn't worked on the stats generation yet, but when It's implemented I'm going to have a class for base-stats based on the level; than a few other things.

Separate the engine from GUI.
So you can use the same engine for web,text,opengl,d3d etc.

It is a good practice.

The engine is seperated from GUI. Once I get some more work done I'll be making a repository so people can use it :)

The code I used to print the enemies was creating a new enemy with specific levels; than generating it's health, and name.

More updates. Just finished working on the weapons class, working on multiplayer now.

Code

Public Class Form1
    Dim a As String 'Characters name
    Dim b As Char

    Private Sub Form1_Load(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles MyBase.Load
  a = "A wild walka"
  MsgBox(Decisions(a))
    End Sub

    Public Function Decisions(ByVal k As String) As String
  b = k
  If b = "A" Or b = "E" Or b = "I" Or b = "O" Or b = "U" Then
    Return "An"
  Else
    Return "A"
  End If
    End Function
End Class

Simple a/an code...
Hope your game takes off...
I'd like to help you build, and learn from, this sometime bro. :3

Okay :)
I'm finishing up some shop classes and such.

[scarfacekilla]

Code

Public Class Form1
    Dim a As String 'Characters name
    Dim b As Char

    Private Sub Form1_Load(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles MyBase.Load
  a = "A wild walka"
  MsgBox(Decisions(a))
    End Sub

    Public Function Decisions(ByVal k As String) As String
  b = k
  If b = "A" Or b = "E" Or b = "I" Or b = "O" Or b = "U" Then
    Return "An"
  Else
    Return "A"
  End If
    End Function
End Class

first off all that's VB.NET but we are in the C# section!
secondly i posted already an example on which he can/should build on
and i am like 99% sure that your code even doesnt work...

[Local Celeb]

I finished off a small battle example with the classes.
I added a strength skill and bonuses
I added enemy damage and crits
I started working on magic and heals

[Local Celeb]

Updated with a load of pictures; Creating repository right now.

We both know about this. I am 100% sure... Plus we both know VB.Net...

Gratz. :3 Trying to add to my post bro so I am not just another leech. Excuse me for posting a snippet...

Also, I totally (don't) have time to read through your posts before posting.

and i am like 99% sure that your code even doesnt work...

Code should work... I posted the code after I did a quick test... :l

Ok then i have some questions - maybe VB .NET is handling this different to what i would expect and how C# is doing:

here you assign a string to a

Code

a = "A wild walka"

here you call a method with parameter a and you use the return value of the method for the messagebox

Code

MsgBox(Decisions(a))

here you assign b with k, which is "A wild walka" (local copy of the parameter)

Code

Public Function Decisions(ByVal k As String) As String
  b = k //local copy of the full string ?!

i dont know if the compiler handles = in if statements as == (equals) operator and not as ASSIGN = ... lets pretend it does a comparison
you test for "A wild walka"="A" OR "A wild walka"="E" .. etc
which is wrong... you want to check the enemies name...and therefore the first character of its name... like b="ape" ... b[0]=="a" OR... etc..
or am i wrong and the VB.NET compiler is that smart and does it automatically?!

Code

If b = "A" Or b = "E" Or b = "I" Or b = "O" Or b = "U" Then

[Local Celeb]

Code

public String AOrAn(String Text)
  {
    String[] Aeiou = new String[] {"a","e","i","o","u" };
    foreach (String S in Aeiou)
    {
    if (Text.ToLower().StartsWith(S))
    {
    return "An " + Text;
    }
    }
    return "A " + Text;
  }
