Hi,

best place in the shed to post this question. Have a look at the Roguelike Development site. Your starting the right way (IMHO). Start easy, dont make anything too complex(control the urge to add everthing with the first cycle), add things by steps as you learn the language your programming in and as the application develops. You didnt mention if you planned on an online game or game someone downloads. I'm sure someone will help you & I will throw a few ideas your way if nothing else(if thats any good )

Hey,

Thanx ill check the link now.

Its going to be web based (you goto a website and login ect) yeah.. i have a lot of stuff i want to add in right away but iv split it into groups.. so the needed stuff thats needed first will be put in (so like the option to be mayor will be in first and weps ect) but then later the other not so important things will be put in.. (so wanna do it all in one big rush :P)

it will be dont in php / html running from a mysql database to hold all the information.

i have some of the information all worked out (i have to go over it all as its a verey old idea i had and want to re-write some of the ideas)

and yeah any ideas / suggestions are welcome (pm me and ill give you a link to where im posting my game design ect)
