Ok This is my first post and an aspiring programmer (I guess you can call me that) I want to know what type of input would be the best for a 2d game using only the touchscreen? I want to know from a gamer's point of view. I want to know if the buttons mapped on the screen is more user friendly or that "Point and click" type of input like what you would do with a mouse but touching instead? Or something dramaic with the multi touch that some devices have, but that limits the audience to a couple devices
People may argue an all touch screen input is a terrible Idea, but look at all the Android devices, most if not all have touchscreen and some ONLY have touch screen. So I would like to reach the majority of the audience.
Game Ideas:
-2d Side Scrolling RPG
-Only Touchscreen Input
-Offline Game Play Only
-Traditional RPG with classes/jobs and races
Keep in mind, I have not gotten an adroid phone yet, will have to wait 1 month before I can upgrade my contract.
