    hi, im K.T.F, and I'm a rapper trying to get signed... and I am also a developer. what I want to announce is that i am creating a 2d top down drift game called D.R.F.T.. so far, I basically have the core gameplay down, but i want to ask, what should be in the game?( i do not want to add points to the game yet until i get some bugs fixed)

    It is somewhat like a touge mountain drift game, and some tracks. right now, I need someone who knows how to draw a track, and also consider this is my first project, so i cant add everything people might want. i could put up a picture, but I havent learned how to embed pictures in the forums.

    It looks like the old gta games, or maybe black mamba racer.

    You can attach files by clicking on the little paper clip icon when writing a post.

    Or if you have it uploaded to a website and have a link for the picture you can place around the link and it will embed as well.

    Hope we get to see some pictures :)

    here is some average track I just made cos I was bored.
    it's not all that good, but if you want something basic, I can do it :)
    Obviously if it was actually for something, I would do a much better job :p

    If you want it to look really nice do it in Sketch-Up. It does the shadows and stuff and is easier to build a track in.

    When it's done just go up; top-down angle and take a picture. I'll see if I have time tomorrow to show you an example.

    mm.. if I didn't have to do two assignments and study for a physics test, perhaps I would have put in at least a decent amount of effort, but I couldn't tonight. I was bored, and just randomly decided I would have a go at this..

    K only had a few minutes. The trick is to do it small scale. I did it too big. So close up the details seemed fine and everything:

    But from the top since it was so big the details vanished:

    But you get the idea. The model above is kinda crappy cause I only had a few minutes. But you should get the idea.

    Game idea is cool. You will get good tips and advice here :)

    Not to be OT......but I checked your myspace page. Your music is good man keep at it. Have you checked out Beatmaker for iphone / itouch? You would get a kick out of it. Its an amazing program.

    "I got somethin 4 ya" beat reminds me of Hero by Nas....I like that track nice work!

    all comes with free sketch-up.

    notice that the outside grass is greener than the one inside the track ;)

    You should have these bonus stages where you go to the junkyard and steal parts for your car. Also, it would be kind of funny if you had some sort of a storyline, kind of like Initial D, except the main character would be a little fatter and shoulder ram all his opponents after he loses. :(

    Heck yes, a top down racing game. I can never got enough of those. Hopefully this will be great, I always wanted a game like GeneRally on the iPhone.

    I don't wanna be the one to break it to you my bro but.............................you need to work on the graphics stuff...................now.

    PM me a list of the stuff you need to be done in Photoshop (the visual stuff). I'll look up a good / simple tutorial for you and if I have time even help you out and do a few for you. I'll keep it a secret / to myself. I'll agree to a NDA if you feel it is necessary. Just a list of the visual stuff in your game.

    The game has to look appealing to people............so like I said I think Sketch-Up would be the way to go. It'll be the easiest way to make it look good and it's free.
