I have a friend who last year started trying to make this game, me and him worked on ideas and worked out you can put a lot more great 'stuff' into the winbolo game and add huge new amounts of stratagy as well, developement didn't get far as the 3D engine was being made from scratch in java, what do you think about the idea?
I think it's stupid. Change winbolo, add new features, enhance teh graphics, and it just isn't winbolo anymore. It's some other game that will lack what winbolo has.<<no offense>>
sounds interesting. perhaps you could put up the source of what you have so far, and all related files, so people can work off of it?
i think bolo *macbolo* have a 3D bolo.... but the last time i saw it, it was pretty crappy.
peace
At least change the name, like 3D Bolo Advance, or don't even use "Bolo" in the title. That's what I want. Its so sad that I almost agree with Madd Maxx. Please pray for me.
I'd like to see what's actually happening in the project, Run.dll. The way bolo works right now is dependant on the fact that it's purely 2D. If you add another dimension, gameplay would definately be changed. So the 3D aspect, unless carried out flawlessly, is something that doesn't seem attractive to me.
However, all the extra "stuff" does. I'm guessing he's writing this as an actual clone and adding features onto whatever bolo already has handy.
What do you call your religion Nova?
My releigion is GangerComunication (that's Franglais for "WinBolo") It involves the ritual slotter of small green men, deforesting, destruction of property (buildings, gun emplacements, tanks), and pretty much a general mayhem. We also carry out our daily lives in a stop-go kind of action. The ones of the lesser rank do it more, ones with higher status do it less.
A friend of mine is working on a 3D view. I'll post some screen shots when I get them up.
