I dont know if it's an idea but..
I was thinking about this board.
Searching the forums isn't a big problem but it makes it a little less easy to find a toptic what your are looking for.
Isn't an idea to make topics under game development such as:
Toptic 1:
RPG
a: - Text
b: - Levels
c: - etc.
Toptic 2:
Platform games
a: - Player
a1: -- Lives
a2: --- Health
a3: --- 1UP
a4: --- Death/Gameover
b: - Enemys
b1: -- Lives
b2: -- Health
b3: -- Death
c: - Levels
c1: -- Level up
- etc.
- etc.
etc. etc.?
I don't know if it would help but it could make less double posts on this boards and should make it easier to find what you are looking for.
