Post by jumpinjo »

I would like to make a good hidden object game with randomly placed objects, a story line and simple scrambled picture games between levels. Can it be done in Sandbox? If so, are there tutorials? If not, can someone recommend another game engine? thank you :geek:

Randomly placed objects? Well, I don't know if that can be done since Sandbox places objects such as entities the same way as like making a building, maybe there's a script out there where the entity location turns into a variable with a random location.

And about other engines, have you tried Gamemaker 3D? or FPS Creator? maybe DarkBASIC Pro can help you create that game you tell.

You can. It's how you build a map. And I went so far as to create my own textures for some things, to make them look more real.
