I have so many projects :P

But after I complete my first epic (Pkmn card game for contest), in 3 months,  I might try to port it.



I was also thinking about how easy minecraft would be.You could easily have Minecraft on calc. 70*70*8 world or so.
That would be a team project though.

Motherload?
YES! I'd love to see this on calcs. It's even (relatively) simple, compared to many other games.
your only problem might come with the boss, as it's different gameplay, really
Spoiler For Spoiler:
the boss is Ms. Natas(read natas backwards)

Lets see...  (my guessings)

Sprites would take 2-4 days.  (mostly shops etc.)
Day & night might take 3-5 (if using 4 lvl gray)
Physics probably 10 days for inexperienced members 1-3 for experienced.
Data structure for map about 2 days.  5 for real compression.
Map generator.  1-2 days
Invitory + upgrade items about 3-4 days.

But the real issue, in my mind, is the sheer size of the maps. In the original, it was enormous, for a z80 calc.

I'm using some spare RAM for map storage, actually.

If I remember, Sir had a really good way to fit save huge maps on the calc somewhere in the thread. ;)
