Author Topic: Speed Shoes  (Read 965 times)

Simple idea really, I think that there should be special boots that greatly increase your speed, as well as affix a model to replace your regular shoes.
I have created a basic model that should illustrate what I want.


I though having a small engine on the boot would be more original(and comical) than the wings seen on other speed shoes, like in LoZ.

you can also just use Quake like playertype

But I'm talking about something like the skis. An item that, when equpped, makes you much faster.
Sort of like a powerup.

Well, yea, it would change you to a playertype that is 1 1/2 times as fast.

I was thinking 2 tiems as fast.
Sort of an uncontrollable speed powerup.

Bumping this, I want more than two people's input :c

it could be done but there arent a whole lot of uses other than getting around large areas. if you run into somethind you die.

Well, it's an item, so you can equip/unequip it to stop yourself from ramming something.

You don't stop instantly though... so you might run into something.

Couldn't we leave that as a risk? Besides, who uses speed shoes in a small area? This is just to get you from point A to point B in a short amount of time.
They're like regular jets, only they go forward instead of up.

Maybe add brakes to them so we don't run into things?

A good idea.

why use brakes?

there could be a disadvantage to every one of thees "powerups" that people make

say for this you run into walls

A version with and without brakes.

if it has an emitter on the back like the player jets, when you crouch, you should be launched into the ground :D
