thank you for the recommendation, I'm going to look out for it on PC (cheap)

would you say its one of the best games for trading?

hi yes its informative; seems like a lot of people find it useful too..

Egon

hi yes I played the demo in internet explorer; its good,

I enjoyed watching that; love the transformation..:)

wow, your game looks amazing, its very polished.. love the graphics..

Dave Hailwood

lol yes thats true.

I looked into the game you mentioned.. I like the idea of it not being animated. I think that may work better for my artstyle.. Its something for me to think about.. thanks for that

hi thanks for the recommendation :)

I've just started the age of empire, I'm hooked lol and I'm only at the learning tutorial.. its good, not sure if im taking in inspiration I've been so busy building and hunting lol

hi thank you, I hope it will be interesting to others..

I'm just about to look at other games for reference.. at hand I have

'the settlers ii', or 'age of empires, age of empires gold',

hopefully one will give me ideas on the type of game play I want to achieve..

if anybody knows of any reference games dealing more with the trading side, it would be nice to know..

thanks

Egon

do you mean the demo on the arcade? If so I can't open it; I think because I'm using firefox, I will try it in internet explorer though...

I love both your designs; but especially the new one, its like a painting that you have to admire... love your choice of colours and how you have done the shading...

like your game,

the dialogue boxes work ok ...

the game was a little jerky at first though

it is really good, the music is great too..

Dave Hailwood

you always make time for others; thank you....

As you probably know I haven't got a license yet ( wish I was able to purchase at the sale price).. Anyhow because of this I'm focusing on fleshing out the graphics and the basic game design..until I'm able to purchase the license. As well as having no programing skills its all very new to me..

It will be 800 x 600 and I'm aiming at desktop.

I wanted a game that held an interest for me. The plight of the Native American Indians (the Powhatan tribe) and how the chief esp used his farming, resources and trading skills to balance favour between the colonists and the nearby rival tribes..

I'm using Pocahontas as my main character as she became a silent figurehead and a symbolic liaison between the chief and English...

I'm hoping to capture as much detail as possible.. Its an interesting read. However the more I read the more I want to add.. which could become a problem..

thanks again Dave.. your comment is really helpful
