Before I tell you about the problem,
I don’t need idea for the game,
I need idea for look of the game.
So I made this game, High into the sky, it’s a game, where you jump on small islands,
to go higher and get to the next level, it’s almost done and I think it’s really great!
But, when you join the game for the first time, you will be greeted with this,
bland, boring, and not at all appealing spawn, what should I do?
I want it to look adventurous, and fantasy kinda, but I don’t know what to do to make it look like it.
Maybe, I should also make the spawn, island too?
If there’s any builders reading this, then please help me, thanks.
I’m not a builder but I know a thing or two about building. I would add a welcome gui may be an island like you said. The fact that you said you jump to earn more levels doesn’t sound much fun I would add a thing were you could race people to the next island, it would be like a game mode it would be fun and entertaining.
I would suggest to create different levels with different themes, such as jungle, snow, lava, etc. You could also add some decorations on the islands to create a better feeling of the environment based on the level/theme. Good luck with your game!
but, you don’t earn levels, you go to the next level.
and I don’t want this game to be too competitive ether, and besides, I don’t think I have the level to do that.
If possible, I’d like to build you a NEW spawn and do some recolor (It’s okay if you don’t want me to go into your studio, I’ll just import it to you with f3x importer)
I think it looks repetitive since it’s related to the theme/style adventurous games with a little fantasy in it normally feature more details surrounding the areas perhaps include some more useful objects like more floating islands connected to it, as it’s something you’ll see in a few decent games.
I’d also suggest adding other types of objects rather than just trees placed throughout the whole spawn area. Maybe you could change things up add larger islands connected to the spawn point to let players venture off the majority something that would fit the current theme. Perhaps make the bottom of the spawn point feature terrain with some additional details, there’s much you can do just don’t overdo with the details.
If your losing ideas on what to add brainstorm some or view reference images to help guide you with adding the proper details related to the theme setting.
