Multi-user iPhone app

[MrPinkPanther]

A few friends and I intend to create a small project over the summer, testing the iPhones Multiuser gaming capcity. We will a small scale MMO which will probably never released and if it is it will only be a very limited release, its just something to play around with really.

What I want to know is what you wish to see. If you could fill out the short survey below it would be of a great help.

What type of massively multiplayer games are you intrested in (Roleplaying, chatting etc.)?

Its going to be 2D so what kind of graphical perspective would you like to see (Top down, Isometric etc.)?

How could we use the iPhones unique features in the game (Accelerometer, Multitouch etc.)?

If applicable what iPhone software version are you using (roughly!)?

Are there any specific iPhone game ideas you have that you would like to share?

+Rep to all reply

Cheers,
George

I wouldn't start until 3.0 is out IMO... if your doing an MMO game then 3.0 will have a lot to offer.

if you were gonna use characters on a plane, you could tilt to slide them from one side to another.

good luck

I have the iPhone 3.0 software and SDK . Im on the dev list. So if you have any 3.0 specific features then I can use them too.

Without flash? lol

Also, wouldn't it be quite difficult as everything will be so small

Actually I can code in actionscript but alas, its unsupported. Im thinking Ill either make it a scrolling game or "pinch to zoom" to get around the sizing problem.

Why are you surveying us if it's never going to be released and is only for your own development portfolio? Shouldn't you be asking yourself what you want to do?

Have you done anything like this before? Because a smaller project would surerly better for a first time developer. A small to do list app or something to start with.
