[SOLVED] New game idea

vistaosxx · 10-10-2011, 12:33 PM

Ok so thanks to the developers at Zune-boards there's fun shooter games for the Zune but, Wouldn't it be fun to play to the beat music like audio surf? Why not make a Multi touch game that's like guitar hero but for the Zune HD? Playing your music just hitting the bubbles that go by the hit marker and gaining points to unlock new Places or efects to add when you hit the bubbles or get a streak of 6 bubbles or 200 in a row.
:] i believe it would be a fun game to develop
But i also don't know if its possible with the Zune Drives :]

This has been tried and dropped and tried again and dropped. There is not a big enough market for anyone to want to develop for months to create a free app for a device that is used by very few people.

It is possible, but won't be done.

this

although, i think microsoft could make people very happy (and turn a profit) by making a touch version of audiosurf (so you still have the auto-track creation, and the bright colourful theme etc.) for the zune/windows 7 (they charge for windows 7 thereby making a profit)

Microsoft didn't make Audiosurf Tilt, FYI, Invisible Handlebar did.

Not that they made audiosurf.
Your troll failed.

By saying that MS should make a dif version would show us the illusion that he's under the illusion that MS made audiosurf.

He said a touch version.
I doubt he's dumb enough to think Microsoft made Audiosurf.

What's your point? Microsoft wouldn't make it, because it's not their game.

It's been suggested before and hasn't been done yet. We do not have very many active developers here anymore. Topic Closed.

It actually has been done in a workable form for Gen 1 and 2, but it was closed source so it never got a port to the HD.
