I wanna develope a game like mad-dog

[mrdj1002]

hi guys
well I'm thinking of developing a game like mad-dog. if u haven't see the game, well it's a game like this:
u have a screen which a real movie is playing there just like Xing mpeg player screen BUT the diffrence is that for example u're waching a western movie and a cowboy is going to shoot u in the camera( u r the first person in the movie) now he's gonna shoot u or u take the mouse curser on him and shoot him by clicking him and the game will continue.
i have some ideas on how developing the game but I wanna bring up my ideas after u gave ur ideas coz i'm afraid that if i give my ideas now it will prevent u from thinking fereshly. please bring up ur ideas then i will bring up mine and then we'll discuss the diffrent angels of the gaming and i keep updateing this thread while progressing in coding the game.
thank u very much

my way for starters:

1) play a cowboy shoot scene as an avi.

2) blit the avi onto picturebox on a form

3 ) using an accurate timer have another picture box
playing with say circles of areas of where the baddys are.

4) track mouse pos and if fired then test if in circle area

if so then change avi to shot film

else

play your dead avi...

You could have on long avi with all sceanes in, and then
jump to the correct stating frame for each sequence...


HTH....
