With the crazy amount of Windjammers on the site, I decided to create a clone as a project for my Building Games course. And then I got to thinking...how awesome would it be, if the game had the GB crew as the games characters? Anyone else think this would be cool? I'm pretty jazzed about creating the clone, but I think this would be a cool addition as a tribute to the guys that brought this great game back to light haha.

Woah, are we back in 2013?

@baillie: Haha it's become a staple game in my house, so I'm still pretty into it. How could you not be?!

Someone in this community is literally making this game as we speak. Certainly they will rear their wonderful head here soon.

@geraltitude: Oh I hope so! I thought I read about one being made a while ago..

@ravage484: Yeah, I was just saying someone is doing this too lol. Yeah, the game is pretty great.

Who cares if somebody else is doing it too, go for it! It's something you'll enjoy for your course anyway.

Actually, at least two other people are (or at least once were) making a project like this.

Maybe you guys could pool in all your resources into a larger project? I guess your college wouldn't be into that though. I guess that if three games are being developed in parallel, there are likely to be neat individual ideas each of you may have that would work better as parts of a larger sum.

Just a suggestion. Good luck with your project!

i bet it would be really hard to clone the gameplay

(momentum and all those hot! power disc physics)

i'd love to see it though :]

Okay, so after a few months of goofing around with Unity, and two or three real weeks of work I have created GHARGE!

It's pretty experimental, as I'm adding new things to it everyday, but I think it's pretty fun!

Controls are the same, left stick for movement and A button for everything else. No lob throw yet though. Requires Xbox 360 controllers to be hooked up BEFORE running the game, as most Unity developed games go.

Let me know what you guys think!
