I have been thinking about a map.. Its no quite like annyother.
Its singleplayer (initialy annyway) You play a merchant. You have to by items / find items then sell them to get money. With the money you can buy houses and shops at severall places. But the player is terribly weak and couldnt fight is way out of a wet paper bag.. and body guards cost ALOT of money. plus they need lodging, etc.

This will be a sort of AI expreiment with the engine, features im thinking of include:
A banks system. (I know how to do this)
A trading system. (I have some idea about how this can be done)
Bandits, that mug you / rob you. (I think I know how I can do this)
A cool item system. (Thinking about stuff here)

Annyway, would you play this? Im probably gonna make it , but its cool to have some motivation..

Note: i dont want "help" to make stuff I do all my projects on my own..

Dude, I sleep 2 hours at night. I have to much time on my hand.. constantly making maps and woriking on Shin Saga. And soon Battle of the Cinematics. But this map would go to the back of my" todo" pile, first I want to finish with the next part of Shin. But ill work on it when I bored of making cinematics.

Sounds interesting. It would have to be pretty fast paced to keep me hooked though..

Work on adding addictive qualities, like collecting stuff.

Yes we would play it. We have a trading map half way done right now. Its multiplayer and based on sea trade and pirating. Its called Hive's High Seas and should be done in a month or so. We have to finish our current map 80% done and update our other maps for TFT first.

Whootzorz for new ships and naval pathing. :D
