Hi, this is my first post here.

I am trying to put together my first game in XNA.

I am trying to keep the game as simple as possible while still having all of the core ingredients.

The game will be a 2D board game, like chess or checkers.


Game pieces will include:

-Power Source
-Destroyer
-Engineer
-Medic
-Walls

The object of the game is to destroy your opponent's Power Source.

Destroyers can attack Power Sources, Destroyers, Engineers and Medics.

Engineers can push Walls

Medics can heal Destroyers, Engineers and other Medics.

Once damaged, Power Sources cannot be repaired.

The game will be playable over the internet by 2 players.

Game pieces will be animated.

Will have sound.


I am a n00b at XNA. I need strong XNA knowledge to help-out. Until then I'll stumble along as best I can.

Nice to meet all of you. I hope to generate some interest with this post.

I should mention ... this game will be freeware.

All media and source code will be made available to the public once the game is finished.

I intend to provide a detailed step-by-step tutorial along with the game so that others can follow in our footsteps.

Is this a recruitment thread? If so you might want to include detailed positions and help needed.

We've got sound covered.

I need ONE really good graphics person for the animated sprites.

I need ONE experienced programmer in XNA who can answer tough questions about XNA.


That is about it.

Otherwise...anyone who wants to help-out is welcome.

Just ask in the .NET development forum and I'll answer what I can.
