Well if you ever saw mailias g's post he made a game for the computer. Well it was basic but fun maybe ask him for some tips, / base it off of his with out copying it and turn it in to a psp game.

I have no idea for a game lol sorry.

Thanks for the reply,

Although its quite sad how you have to have a custom firmware just to run LUA stuff on psp :( oh well i could always play it on my laptop though :)

I realy need ideas for a game.. oh how about a Pong game.. i know there is most likely 100 pong games for PSP :P

yeah theres already a few pong games for the psp. Maybe some kind of fighting game, or rpg (that one would be time consuming), Maybe even a different style of pacman (like a crash bandicoot style of it)

I think a really simply little fun rpg would be awesome. That is' if you could do it. Plus it's time consuimg like staxx said. I haven't really seen as many pacman remakes as I have seen pong so that would be a better way to go. Or like a small sonic remake.

Start a project and dont quit it. Keep working on it, dont go on another project until the first is finished.

ah woo thanks everyone for the replies :D heres mine lol oh and before i start i thought i should let you all know.. PSP ROX!! lol and i have decided to make a pong game with some kind of twist to it but not sure what the twist could be lol oh and should i add in sprites for the bats+ball or just make it a classic pong?

@Staxx
Well to me "time" i have heaps of time :) and a RPG would be realy great and yeah that would take alot of effort, although i dont think there is realy any rpg games made for psp yet is there? oh and yeah a pacman kind of game would be alright to make too it would be a pain to find the right sprites lol. I think a fighting game would be a bit hard to make for me as a first game but i will keep that in mind for later when i am better at lua :) also thanks for your post

@Ace_012
Yeah as i said a rpg would be a great idea to do i might actualy look into it. I am planning on making a pong game :) a sonic remake! :o that would be pretty sweet too.. but i dont think i can do stuff like the 360 directional in the loop de loop :P thats what i call it lol but some other things i think i can do thanks for your post.

@Mailas G
Hey man, Thanks for the tip :) I realy love the psp and what you can do with it.. :P I will try so much not to start a new project until the first one is finnished.
