Hello! I'd like to suggest adding a BYOND forum section. I'm sure that there are a lot of people who still enjoy classic 2D games and I know that most of you may not know what BYOND is and what it is for, so I will write a little review(kinda like A/Q) about it.

Q: What is BYOND?
A: BYOND is a community for making & playing 2D online multiplayer games. As a player you get to enjoy hundreds of games made by normal people and players just like you. As a developer you get to create your own game with unique features using an easy-to-learn programming language, built-in support. built-in map engine and lots of developer tools. IT'S COMPLETELY FREE

Q: How to get started?
A: You need to go to and download the free client. Then in the same website register and account and then activate it from the email you've received.

Q: What featured does it have?
A: BYOND has featured no other game maker has. It is completely free, it has free developer tools, you can make profit from it, the programming language is easy to learn and yet powerful, BYOND has built-in support. Also the client of BYOND support a 'pager' which is kind of a messenger where you can send messages and invite people to your game. It has a friend function, bookmarks and personal hub where you can post info about you and your games.

Q: What kind of games does BYOND offer?
A: From my experience I can say that there are a lot of types and genres. RPG games, TD games, MMORPG games (Like DBZ, Bleach, Naruto games and etc), Survival games, Zombie games, RTS games, Shooting games and etc.

Q: What OS does BYOND support?
A: BYOND supports: Win98/2000/XP/Vista/7

That's all I can think of now, I really hope that you will vouch for this. If you have any other questions about BYOND feel free to post them in the thread.



Best regards

Depends which version you like. Some people doesn't like XP since it seems kinda more advanced with its features compared to the VX version. I like the graphics of the XP one mainly the tile sets, so thats why I'm using them in my game.

Exactly, thats why im using them too =P Tho not for the characters, self made is better if you know someone good at it. Starting to hate more and more that I lost my game -.- way to lazy now to start over, plus gotta re-figure things out again.

Hmm, just found my old account, was in 2006 :/ to bad I can't somehow steal the source back :laugh:

Lol:

Look at the dates, McMekko was a old friend, even had contact on phone ( same country ) that stole the source and then hosted his own with it. Sad times, haha.

This guy, made me join the forum just to post to here. Pushy pushy pushy, alas, it seems like I'll have to start posting now. . .
+1 from me, since I'm a Byond member myself.

And, now why.

Byond, as stated, can make games. I went in as a 13-14 year old kid with nary a care in the world, and now I understand code fully and completely. Byond truly does work for people just learning to code, and for people who've coded in the past.

I also can icon fully and completely, with absolutely NO knowledge of what it was before going it. So, even if it's not added, check it out.
