i'm nearly finished programing my endless runner project.
features are, randomly spawning platforms of many sizes, randomly spawning monsters and objects on the platforms (table values change the percent to spawn) also randomly spawning coin system, jumping character. table value which controls the speed. ui to track coins earned, and to count down the distance.. character dies when either missing a jump, or losing all his life points by hitting mobs (again life can be set in tables)

so my question is, would anyone be interested in a template of this (no art) also, how profitable are templates? do people buy them?

    Endless runners are always popular, but there are a few templates out there. Check the marketplace and other sites that offer templates. Some templates are doing very well, others not so much, it is all depends on the quality of the template and the price you ask for it. A detailed video will be important, but keep in mind that the only 'promotion' you can do on the forum is add a note about it in your signature.

    BTW - if you are planning a paid one, not sure that even this post is allowed.

    It depends how much it's going for I guess (EDIT: and the QUALITY!). I spent the last couple of weeks looking for a runner template. I could't find one to suit my needs, so the last two days I just got stuck into it and had a go at building it myself. My basic prototype is done. If I had seen this message a few days earlier I definitely would have been interested. So yes, I'm sure there are people like me that like using templates to learn from. If I hit a wall or anything I'll definitely look into it.

    I would be vert interested! How can I contact you? Also, is it possible to be able to design the levels instead of having random placement? I think it's importany to control the user experience :) do you think that will slow the game FPS down?
