If there was to ever be a Zone Runner 3, what would you guys like to see in it? I don't mean dramatic changes such as new weapons and such...but what sort of little things would you want in there, if I were to make it? It'd need the same gameplay, so I don't want to deviate from that too much. But then again, I don't want to just make new levels using the same format...it'll become tired after three series. So what would you like to see in there? Your opinions would have an impact on ZR3, if it were to be made... which it probably will be soonish

You could have certain platforms that can only be stepped on if you have a certain powerup that lasts for limited time. If you know what I mean...

Yeah, I'd like to see a wider variety of levels. I also agree with fire that you should change your avatar. Try and get a really high quality one like Rikus...

Either easier levels or less zones between saves.

just a thought
how long would it take to make a new zone runner?

using the same engine and graphics it would probably take about 10 minutes.
well mabye not.

Lets see, two player coorperative mode?
where the players need to act together to get past the level

standing on each others heads to jump higher and one pressing a switch to allow the other access to a room etc.

Yeah, or you could make it like Knuckles Chaotix where your two players (one is a computer) are connected by a thick, black line which stretches and expands and can be used to bounce the two of you over chasms and long rows of spikes.

Collectable items that you need to do certain bits of a level, which you get when you kill a boss type thing (eg a pogo stick or something to reach a platform unreachable by jumping.)

Add powerups! Like these two:

Ice Star : this will give you the power to walk on icy levels without sliding, and to blast enemies with your Ice Breath.
Golden Star : Cheap copy of Starman in Mario Bros. It bounces around and when you collect it, you turn invisible and have lots of little stars coming from you. (I think it was supposed to be 'invincible', but someone made a typo.)

don't change the gfx style like some people suggest.

I think a lotta weird features wich make you crazy would make the game better.

-New graphics.
I can’t see a difference between Zone Runner 1 and 2. Your graphics are okay etc etc but please try to improve your skills a lot or at least just a bit.
-Zone Runner 3 should be placed on Mars.
-It should feature flying space cows with astronaut helmets.

I hope that tips help you. If you add just one of the things I told you to your game I am sure that it’ll be funny.

I agree, a level editor would be pwnage. 2-Player would be fun also.

Maybe you could collect money instead of points in each level, and at the end of each zone there would be a shop where you can buy power-ups and crap. I also wouldn't mind a story (nothing complex, just some kind of storyline).

I've never played either Zone Runner, but I think that a world select option would be neat. After beating a world, you get an item and you can't play that world again. You need a combination of items to find hidden items, so depending on what order you play the worlds in, you can get different secret items.

 
Oh! My god.

Except bananas?

Another ZR3 suggestion: A flying level where you have to shoot some evil minions on your way to another world (Stumpman needs to get a fan and a laser gun before he can do this though)
