what do you think about this?
Author
I''m playing with a game idea and was wondering what you guys out there think about it. So here it is:
It will be somehting like the old Bomberman games, where you run around placing bomb, that can detonate, cause multiple explosions etc. The player has some special tools that he can find, like wires to detonate the bomb by hand, he can find items to build traps, station cameras to know what is going on somewhere else and much more. So he actually goes around in the dungeon, setting traps to kill the other players...
This all happens in first-person view. So its actually a FPS with more tactical thinking...
I imagine it to be quite funny - running around, setting traps or running into them ;-)
This is basically meant to be a multiplayer game, once again like old Bomberman.
So what do you think? What do you like about it and what not?

There is an older playstation game called "Deception" that is basically this: (1 player only though)
The premise is that you made some deal with the devil over some type of deal that you make with devil... you know... the kind that you make with the devil...
anyway...
People come into the house and you have to rig the house with traps (cages, trap doors, spiked goods, etc) and turn your houseguests into victims.
It had a sequel called "Deception 2" (if you can believe that) that I hear was quite different if you end up checking them out.
.travois.

Sounds good, but remember one thing, it was Bomberman''s simplicity that made it so fun.

i too had that idea before, but mine was to make it isometric like diablo but with the speed of atomic bomberman...
good idea, i hope it works out for u ....
btw, make a handy mini map, i would hate to get lost in some big bombing map... and then get bombed because i dont know where to go.

Never heard of "Deception", but I will check it out, thanks!
About simplicity: I don''t want to make it a complex game, I just want to incldue the parts that are fun. Too many games got worse after inserting more and more features...
Isometric bomberman sounds a bit like Bomberman 64 for the Nintendo 64, doesn''t it? ;-)
My biggest problem is, if the game would be playable in first-person view... As BitBlt said, it shouldn''t be too complicated or it would lose the fun part...

Spy vs Spy (sory, check that out, but I''ve got to go)
Trying is the first step towards failure.

Yes, just like ragonastick said, it would be like modernized Spy vs spy. But I wouldn''t make it an FPS; this kind of arcade games must be top-view, otherwise you lose the awareness of your surroundings and you can''t plan your next move that well (that''s why strategy games are also top-view and not first person 
).
As an online game, spy vs spy could be quite fun.
