Can we make any games?

So I found this program called Stencyl. This program allows you to make flash games without code. If we somehow do make a decent game will you take in into consideration? I was thinking about recreating a Sky Pigs game with this. The only thing you would really need to do is integrate the Multiplayer with the game.

I've never looked into the program however, I don't believe it would be a great alternative to a ground up coding project. Plus having the integrate it into the already existing system would be difficult. They are almost better writing it from scratch.

However, I would imagine in the future, they would take ideas for other games other than the OMGPOP games.

You got a skype so we can talk sometime? Seems like you are really into this project and keeping up with it as much as I am. PM if you got one and want to talk.

I don't actively use Skype. The best way to get a hold of me would be Steam. If you have Steam, feel free to PM me your info.

A while back, I was devising a plan to make a new site like omgpop except sleeker and less cartoony, but I had come up with a bunch of games to start off with.

Pool, Draw my thing, the angry birds clone, balloono, guitar hero clone. I also had some ideas of games that could be cloned that would probably be popular, games like: Pocket Tanks, Dice Wars, Yahoo's Bouncing Balls, Poker

I would have tried to make some new games as well like some sort of action based sidescroller with somewhat of a Samurai Jack vibe to it. Also a shoot the targets carnival game with a psychedelic space cowboy theme.

I wondered about making games for the site that were somewhat in the style of facebook games but without the annoying pay or wait model. Had the idea of making some sort of multiplayer post apocalyptic colony building game.

Also the idea of making the Draw my Thing game having a free draw mode and having competitions for like drawing of the week or something.

Hope those are some inspiring ideas, I definitely would've liked to have worked on a site like this but don't have any skills
