Quoted from my topic on Yoshi Lore.
So, I have had this idea for a while.
(Huge wall of intro. If you don't like to read boring intros, skip this)
When you go around internet, searching for games and stomp on a site where Game maker games or other beginner games are made, you see ALOT of Mario fangames.
You see a few Yoshi fangames around there too, but none of them are that good usually.
Yoshi had one great game in my opinion, Yoshi's Island, and others were just good or ok. We seriously need more.
I've been fixing game with Game maker for few years now, and I'm now at the transistion point where I see the problems of Gamemaker. How slow the code is compared to other coding languages, why all the professionals use something like C++.
I'm myself soon going to learn and start using C++ or other real coding languages soon, but since I have quite much knowledge with Game Maker, I could make my last real game with it...
The game was going to be a Gradius Fan Game at first, but I started to think something else, what I have been thinking since I was a kid...
(Intro ends here)
A Yoshi fangame. It have had many names, even few levels on another game with level editor and one game maker project. It was going to be a comic, a game, a levelpack, a sprite edit, a SMW hack... In my mind, I named it unofficially Yoshi's Adventure, but I never really started it before this.
I'm asking Yoshi Communities now, would they like the idea of a Yoshi fan game? We could make this a community project where everyone could help with music, spriting, coding and level editing. We could make it large, small, as we would like it.
I think I have the skills to make the engine, I already have few other engines I've trained with, like the Gradius FG engine and online gaming test... I haven't really released anything in public yet though.
What do you think about this? Would a Yoshi fan game made by a Yoshi Community be cool?
Please discuss. I want to hear everyones thoughts about this.
So, please give me your thoughts. This is quite unofficial yet, but this might become something big.
EDIT: So, what will this game going to be? Basiacally a new Yoshi game without the babies. After I have your thoughts about my idea, I might start discussing about the game itself.
