How about a space invaders mini game with Trumbles?

Post by pagroove »

How about a space invaders mini game with Trumbles (Trumble invaders) to be playable in a Hoopy Casino? Or mini-games that you can buy at space stations to be playable if you have to wait?

Or am I on drugs?

:shock:

You're on drugs :)

And yet somehow I'm strangely drawn to the idea...

I know that somebody programmed SimCity as a mod for the Sims so that the Sims themselves could actually play SimCity on their PCs - now that's just weird...

Soon they'll be playing 'the Reals', about people with humdrum lives playing computer games to relieve boredom... Welcome to the Matrix!

I'm obviously not one of them.

It should be nice when you score high points in the Trumble invaders game that you can earn credits in Oolite like a slot machine. I don't know if this if possible. Probably difficult to program. 8)

In Grand Teft Auto you can play also minigames.
LOL playing Oolite in Oolite :shock: 8) :lol: :D :twisted:

In "The Day of the Tentacle" you can play "Manic Mansion" (its prequel) on a computer, making it the most dangerous game ever (at least for hamsters)...

That where the times of the great adventure games!
But my idea was just meant to let the creativity flow. 8)

My first experience of a computer game was a D&D thing via a teleprinter, no screen, just reams of continuous paper printouts. Those were the days, when golfball typewriters were high tech and Wang was unknown!

Daddyhoggy made a brilliant ad for the game Trumble Bobble in the Your ads here thread!

I was looking for a mini game to be looking exactly like he drawn it!

Can anybody program this into Oolite? I mean is it technically possible?

Codewise Technical anything is possible, in regard to showing bits on a computer screen.

But the issue at hand is, do anybody who cares have time and skills to make it a reality..
