BYOND forum section

[Thunda]

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

You must be registered to see links

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

For anyone who doesn't want to read up on byond, its basically a similar engine to rpg maker (the engine kaoii used to make ragezone adventures and xiaya(spelling?)) but with multiplayer capability built in.

+1 for a section. The engine is pretty powerful for being free, especially when you make your own sprites to make it look how you want.
