The Kitchen Sink wrote:Mortar cannon.

When it sees you, a target appears around where you were (looks like the aura of the alarm drone from NReality), showing where it will hit and its blast radius. It does this on the very first frame it sees you, with a cooldown of 1 second.

One second after the target is marked, there will be an explosion in that exact area, killing you if you're in its blast radius.

It's a cannon, so it doesn't move.

That is a really really good idea, and would work well in the N environment. Unreality, if you haven't already got something like this, could you make one for the next Nreality?

Probably :)

Yay!

launchpad drones...

launchpads are already movable in NReality

Muncher drone
Doesn't do any damage to ninja. But it munches through tiles! However, it is affected by doors

QFE.

I would add random movement (that actually works) to the existing drones and a way to stop thwumps without using tiles (like some sort of door or something like that).

i would make another ninja that would chase u around. that would be alot more challenging.

he'd be able to push u off cliffs or into drones. and he could beat u up.

Nice thread
probably I would add an underwater element to N...that'd be way cool
And then I'd have torpedos
Underwater would be so cool imo

An underwater map...you mean like this?

one-ways? thwumps?

how about a ghost drone, like the ghosts in Mario? if you turn ur back to em, them will go after you. no, that's boring as hell, so what about a tile turret? it will create an area and indicate it (like alarm drone) and the size of chosen area can be changed, and once the area field lines change colour, tiles will appear in that area. if the ninja happens to be in the area at that time, then it willb be killed

A gravity well:
These would be activated by switches, and only one can be on at a time.
One switch would turn a grav well on, and another switch would turn any grav well off. The range of attraction would be 4 to 6 tiles. The same size as a gauss turret. When it pulls the ninja you hear something like the flying sound on Heroes.

Examples of the uses of gravity wells:
Scenario 1: If you have to jump over a long line of mines then it can give you a longer jump so you don't fall on them.

Scenario 2: You have to turn it off so you don't get pulled into an enemy. You could put it on a mine in a tunnel or in the middle of four one-way platforms.

Scenario 3: You have a string of them above the ninja in a horizontal line, and its suddenly like walking on the moon. Fun, and you could put them on bounce blocks too.

There are other possibilities, and you could also have something that repels the ninja.

Gravity x 1.5 (Or any other strenght, also can be 0.5 or any else)
Makes gravity a lot more pulling so that you could perform some nafty jumps.

Deadly spot
Put this into your map and everything from drones to thwumps will die if they contact it. Even you. Has 2 square radius. You can lure enemies to this.

A 360 degree firing drone. It shoots a laser that forms a circle and gets larger and larger. It is deflected by tiles. Look at the picture below.

They have that, in Nreality.

A black hole drone. It moves around the map and if you get to close to said drone, you will start to get pulled closer to it killing you on contact.

Or same drone but it fires black holes that last for 4 seconds. also it would suck up gold.

I wouldn't. For the same reason I sort of dislike N Reality... It complicates things :$

I agree with that. But if they ever made a new freeware N game with new enemies, I would have the black hole drone. (posted above your comment I think) (:

i would have a hyper laser cannon.

I would be a movable drone, in which the first frame you are in it's view, it charges for a 2 second period, then fires a Light blue laser, even if it misses you, you get blown back from wind force.

Name:Bomber drone
Appearance: Blue, like a zap, but deeper blue. has eye like a chainguns.
Function(s): Has a targeting system like a guass, except faster and and more accurate. When it locks on, there is a 20 frame (half second) pause, then it fires a fast moving profectile that explodes on contact with a tile or door. The explosion creates a splash damage effect, killing the ninja within a certain radius. The drone moves a bit faster then a laser, but not faster then a chaingun. Stops when targeting.

Unreality?

Alos, I vote that we have to use this as a template.

I don't know about enemies but a door that had a timer on it and shut after, say, ten seconds. would add a lot to puzzles.

A moving guass drone, a "mortar drone" (as mentioned above), a flamethrower that shot a flame in a direction for intervals of time before it shut off, then pause and restart.

I'd make a thump that could have spikes on more sides than just one. That would have much more possibilities than a normal thump, for example, you couldn't wall jump using the thump, you couldn't run on it... Endless possibilities, that would be super in puzzles.

I would make a duel ninja. Basically, if two ninjas are placed on the map, they can both move with the arrow keys and jumping. Will bring some facinating puzzles because one could be running right but the other would be unable to move because a wall is to its right and other things.
its also possible that three ninjas can do it and so on...

I like the Electric Circuit.

a flame thrower drone.
