Chess - I'm thinking about it. I guess it would be good to have it. But it would take some time to make it, as it has quite complex rules. And it also needs graphics, I'm not sure where to get it.

Chaos - uh. I don't know. I was very keen in making chaos, but right now I'm not sure. I mentioned it on one chaos-forum, gave them link to this site, but I was almost ignored  :-[ 

monopoly/scrabble - would you believe, that I've never played these games? :) They are not too popular here, where I live. I probably played some monopoly clone, but not the g ame with this name.

Uh, thank you. I tried to start it, but it wanted to install something on my computer (I refused, naturally). But it seems to be some funky semi-action version. I guess that I'll just make normal chess.

Perhaps an original game would be a nice addition?  :D

well... my motto is: you name it, you get it :)

Well, I also have an idea of creating some "more-action" game. For example, in case you've played it, something like "bomberman / dyna blaster" (you might know some other clone with different name). In this game, there is a simple maze, the players move in it and lay down bombs. You can also pick-up various power-ups.

I'm only a bit worried about network latency. Majority of DuelBoard visitors is from U.S. and the server is in Europe. Such game would require low latency.

Any other idea for some simple action game?

Some (old) simple multiplayer action games:

CyberDogs (Good shoot-em up)
No Mans Land (Top down, v.simple shoot 'em up)
Infantry (ex-Sony game)
Tanks! (Top down tank wars style game)

Cannon Fodder/Sensible Soccer style games might also work well multiplayer.

Wow... Cannon Fodder!   

war, has never been so much fun
war, has never been so much fun
go to your brother, kill him with your gun
leave him lying in his uniform, dying in the sun...
(btw that's the tune from this game from Amiga version. Despite the lyrics it was cool song. I have somewhere few minutes long video teaser for this game, with studio-performed music, not just tracked like in the game)

yes, something like this could work, either with soldiers, or tanks, or something else

I don't know other games you mentioned, but I'll check them out

Massively multiplayer cannon fodder...

Thousands of the buggers running around, finding guns, getting experience, setting ambushes.

Could be Vietnam all over again, but in sprite form.

mmmm

Looks like you want me to compete with Counterstrike and such games :) Anyway, I'll sure try to make some action game.

<edit>
Also I'm not sure, if it's possible to make such game as java applet (to be playable directly from web browser)

Could we have a basic side-scrolling or player vs comp fighting game?  And weaknesses in moves, ie. kick beats punch, punch beats... jab?  lol, or we could just have it one of those games where you just smash the keys without much brain power required 8)

The racing game idea sounds really cool, aswell as the cannon fodder.
