If I ever get around to making it, it won't be anything like any of the above.

I think CVS is a very very very very very very dated fighter I would make a fighter like SF3 or Garou and street of rage is a side scroller

You are right streets of rage is a side scroller, but it is not the same as metal slug, contra, gunstar heroes, etc.

I personaly label games like Streets of rage beat-em-ups, because the game is based primarily on hand to hand combat (Its like Street fighter with levels instead of duels), and there is some fake depth thrown in.

Forgot about survival horror/ horro. Damn, I knew I was missing at least one genre, probably more.

I might start off by making a top-down beat-em-up featuring bears smashing mutant bugs with clubs.

And if I finished that, I would want to create a shmup built around a totally original theme that doesn't take place in outer space or traditional war *hint hint*.

I'd make a platformer. My favourite genres are platform/adventure. Racing games can be good too.

Thanks, HT.

Right now Screamcast is also working on a puzzle game and a has plans for a platformer, among other things. The two I mentioned, though, are the closest to my heart ;)

what? no FPS? heh if you want to make an RPG try you hand at Dreamstudio! A VERY impressive piece of hardware, and if you use the guide at gamwfaqs you can learn quickly, but with a bit of time how to work the software.

The problem with dreamstudio is that you can only use whats given to you. you cant use your own graphics, and even worse, you can't distribute anything you make. (other thatn as a game save, but since hardly anyone has dreamstudio that doesn't really count).

It would be nice to have a freeware program like dreamware for PC that let you make rpgs for the DC.

Just give me Shenmue 3 and I'll be rather happy ;)

Now which category to select for this game? :P

What do you see with your heads in their asses?
Keep on railing at what I believe,
Call me insane and I am proud to be.
