I'm working on making a skateboarding game like the tony hawk games
Iron Hawk:
So hey guys, this is only my first post in this community, but also am glad im part of it even more now :D , so I am designing, and even going to attempt to make a skateboarding game, its the same idea as the tony hawk games, but without tony hawk or any copyrighted stuff,
ENGINE-
but it would be made on unreal engine, but before you give me c**p for it, let me explain, at least if I use unreal engine I have something to compare my current game so I know if im on the right track, unlike if I used unity or something, I cantt compare it to a game on a different engine, and I know alot of people will say, why not make it kn the sam engine as the old tony hawk games, well id love to, yet I cant as the original engine is called renderware, and EA owns it right now, and dosent allow people to download, or even buy say a 50 or 100 dollar license to use it, they only with negotiate with big companies, so yea '-'
Now as you can see,
LEVELS-
I have 4 levels, its just Skatepark, Suburbia, Factory, and Mall that are done basic design phase, I have 2 bonus levels planned if I can get the rights, as they are two of the levels treyarch made from thps2x, and then also doing some of my own secret bonus levels, like say you do a normal skaters carrer, get a cheat and a secret skater, do the secret skaters carrer, and you get a secret level unlocked
SOUNDTRACK-
I got the soundtrack plan I only got 3 songs so far, but I played other tony hawk games while listening to them, and they work well, untitled and thistopia are rock songs, and the staircase is a hip hop/ rap type song, and to get these songs in the game, im going to get a decent ammount of the game done, then do like a indigogo page or something like that, to raise money for stuff like soundtrack licensing, and stuff like that
SKATERS-
we have skaters, we have me, obviously, one of my friends, thats who yolo swagger is, as a bonus skater, mabey if I can get rights to put some of dans music in, then I could put him as a skater in the game, and then the pony version of me, so my pony oc.
LEVEL DESIGNS-
Now i can't post the pictures directlly here, as there is a 4 image limit, but I do have 4 maps so far designed, Skatepark, Suburbia, Factory, and Mall, and they all have 9 goals excepts factory, as factory in a competion level, but if you want to see the images, here is a link to a folder with the sketchs and design drawings
Link to pictures: https://drive.google.com/drive/folders/0B--5-5bkL4X5UHctZkp3ME14Mkk?usp=sharing
There we go, there are my ideas so far, now its still in progress, but i will start trying to work on the game soon, and will contuine desgining the game as well, and will give updates when nesiciary, also i made a video on it on my channel, but it does not show the pictures for the mall level, as it was designed after the video was made
Here is the video: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gfgZEMfy-IM

They stopped using renderware with THPS3.
Unreal engine is a bad idea.

But if you have any thing to help, like a good engine i could use then, cause i would want one with decent graphics, and that could obviuslly be used to make a skateboarding game, but if you have any, i'd love to get suggestions or help with that, i don't want this game to be just for me, i want to do it for all tony hawk fans, with feedback and opinions from evreyone durning the whole process of it being made
sk8ace:
I also have UE4 and like playing around with it. I'm sure a great skateboarding game could be made with it if done correctly. You'll really have to get custom with the physics if you want to make it feel like the TH games. Your best bet is to study up on how TH games are coded. It's really advanced stuff. I don't think it could be recreated with Blueprints but it's possible if you are coding the classes in C++. Best to start small and build from there. The main thing you want to capture is the snappiness of the original games. If you play THPSHD or THPS5, and then play THUG1/2, you will notice right away how sloppy the controls are compared to the originals. It really needs to be built like a fighter game where you have the least amount of lag as possible for controller inputs.
We've got a lot of amazing tools at our disposal these days but making something on par with what Neversoft did, is most likely impossible for a single person. I am all for anyone giving it a go though!
