CF Gamer's Hangout

[Rigatoni]

A few other members and I were thinking about starting a PM group here on CF for fellow gamers.

It would be dedicated to discussion of all things gaming: such as PC & console games, consoles themselves, game development (if there are any fellow developers), Steam sales, etc.

If anyone is interested in being a part of the group, please let me know here in this thread and I'll add you. =) So far we have 4 others in the PM group.

Edit: There are now 6 other members in the group.

It's a Christian-based group, but I may create a new, secular group if enough people are interested. =)

Yes sir; currently working on a building game right now (with a couple others planned), and have made a ton of mods in the past for another game. It's always nice to meet fellow developers. How much progress have you made with the RPGs?

I don't usually finish them, unfortunately. I'm usually get them to about 45-60% of the way done, think of a new idea that I can't work into the project I'm working on, then start a new one. I checked this morning and I have 198.76 gigs of them on my hard drive. I have been doing this since high school, however. Fortunately, my job isn't making the games, I'm a 'Tech Consultant'. More of the hardware side. Although, I would absolutely LOVE to work at Bethesda. What kind of games do you make?

P.S. I love your signature background! It's really good-looking!

Working at Bethesda would be a dream I'm sure. You enjoy games by that company - such as the Elder Scrolls series, Fallout, etc.?

Besides the building game I'm currently working on, I would also like to make a platformer (inspired by Super Mario) and a turn-based strategy game. I've kind of been doing the same thing however - leaving projects unfinished, lol. I was working on a casual RPG - inspired by Quest 64, and a procedural dungeon generation-based game I never finished.

I can share a few screenshots if you want to see; I enjoy seeing work done by other developers as well. Also, thanks! A friend of mine made the background and I animated the text. =)

I'd like to join in, I have several game ideas in my head and would like to see what others are doing in game design and such. I've done some modding on rts games.

This sounds fun. I'm currently taking online classes to learn how to program in general, and I've been making a platformer as a side project.
