I need a challenge tell me a game idea the first “hard to make” game I see I will make, then once im done tell me something I could add

#2

It would be easier if you post what you consider your best game dev, and we could start giving you feedback on things to improve or add…

#3

well im just asking for a challenge because I dont have any ideas for a game and I dont really have anything else to do

#4

The hard/medium/easy labels on these ideas are relative to the other ideas. You may find the easy ones to be medium or hard, I don’t know.

Hard

Make a Tetris game. This will test you on 2D lists, user inputs, and testing collisions between blocks and the playfield. If you want to make this really hard, do some research on Guideline Tetris and add a few of those things. (I thought of this idea because I’m doing this.)

Medium

Make a Snake game. This will also test you on 2D lists, but the user input and collision-testing will be easier.

Make a Doodle Jump game. This will have even easier user input, but it will also have some top-down scrolling. If you want to make this harder, don’t use a platformer engine (like mine) and make it fully from scratch instead.

Easy

Make a clicker game.

Make a runner like the Google No Internet game.

I made 3 of the games the other 2 may take a while but if you want you can make some comments on them and give extra iteas for the games

I made the tetris game My Project10-11-2021_8-41-55.wick i think this is right

you know how tetris works right? I was envisioning something closer to what I made.

if you don’t know what to add, you can do:

  • all 7 tetrominoes (look them up if you don’t know them)
  • rotations (a rotation system isn’t really necessary)
  • line clearing

if you need a reference, or if it’s too hard, ignore the tetris game and try making a doodle jump game that’s closer to actual doodle jump. (not just a few platforms and a ball)
