PointStar (namechange:The gravity of a situation)
Making a platformer game atm :p Already got allot of the core game mechanics, like collision detection, powerups, physics, dynamic sprite Movement.
Here is the game in action of how the build currently is.
The healthbar doesn't work in the video, although I fixed that yesterday. And yes, the sprite doesn't has arms when he is running atm.

Looks badass, man! Good work!

I see a metroid style door on the right there! Thought you could sneak that one by me did you?
Seriously though, that's pretty sweet. Are you doing this for class or for fun?

Just for fun. Although the codes I use, I can reuse for school some assignments.
Like for instance how I made the collission, the physics,...
And i've never really played metroid >.< I was more thinking about commander Keen then something else when developing the core.
And Booya! got a new class within the game. Bullets are working!!
They don't want to be deleted though. Stubborn motherF#ckers don't seem to hit anything.
Something new to fix!
Re: PointStar (namechange:The gravity of a situation)
They're Mario bullets I guess, huh. What's it being written in?

If I were to keep adding classes that calculate something per each frame and not delete them. You will get a stack overflow.
To many items for your ram to calculate. If it's empty, every program will freeze.
And we don't wan' the game to freeze computers do we?
Re: PointStar (namechange:The gravity of a situation)
Well, maybe that could be the point How far can you get before your computer freezes?
So C doesn't have classes, and OpenGL uses code very closely related to C. That means you're probably either using C++/# or maybe Java even?

I'm making it cross compactible. I'm writing it so it can be made in Xna (c++/csharp) or actionscript.
After it's all done it's just a matter of copy pasting the codes.
Re: PointStar (namechange:The gravity of a situation)
Blinking red things are checkpoints? I saw a couple times when you went back an old checkpoint turned on, wouldn't you want it to ignore that checkpoint if there was a newer one?
Should be simple enough in code if you give checkpoints integer values to see if the currently saved checkpoint is greater than the one you're running through.

I'm gonna use an old gaming trick, the reusing of game levels
But then with some things changed. So you will probably have to save at a certain point at the same checkpoint again.
Re: PointStar (namechange:The gravity of a situation)
yes yes, the game is almost finnished, just need to do some artwork. It looks completely diffrent now. Not gonna spoil everything but here is a picture.
I also figured out how to do 3d games in actionscript whoop!!

Awesome sauce! When can we get our hands on the finished game?

Within the next months possibly. For PC/MAC/iOS!
Re: PointStar (namechange:The gravity of a situation)
Wow, that's certainly come a long way
I keep seeing gravity type games in the iOS app store and every time I see a new one come out, since you started this thread I think to myself "THEY STOLE CHIEF'S IDEA!!!"
With graphics that fancy I bet you'll make a killing on the app store.

I hope so =p really doing my best! But my game will be a more oldschool dosLike game.
The gravitationchanger is mere a tip of the iceberg of things you will encounter. Most game developer nowadays tend to make 1 specific gameconcept.
Wich they create their full game around it.
And for the hell of it I added another visual aspect.
background paralax!
Re: PointStar (namechange:The gravity of a situation)
Oh yeah, those are the little things that will make it a great game!
Re: PointStar (namechange:The gravity of a situation)
This is gonna be a classic, me thinks.

Re: PointStar (namechange:The gravity of a situation)
Nice! Put some videos up there, make an epic trailer, and get some fans drooling over it. Build up the hype!
When you get close to an iOS release you should send the trailer and a review copy out to the toucharcade.com forums so maybe they will pick up on it and give you a review. You should be able to send them pre-release copies for review also.
People in the iOS scene will really get behind a good indie game.

Re: PointStar (namechange:The gravity of a situation)

also doors!
and death

Defenitly. I'm still looking for people to send review copies to. I'm probably going to ask someone I know to write about it in a famous local game magazine :3Wonko the Sane wrote:Nice! Put some videos up there, make an epic trailer, and get some fans drooling over it. Build up the hype!

This is looking better all the time. I like the new name too. Shorter names are usually more memorable anyway.
That little flying droid, that's the Star Wars influence right?

Re: PointStar (namechange:The gravity of a situation)
Yeah, love the new name. Can't wait to see how it all works. If you get it written up someplace big (or even someplace small) post some links so we can all drool over your newfound fame and fortune!

Still gotta start up a fanbase :p I started a fanpage on facebook and will post on reddit to!Wonko wrote:Wonko the Sane wrote:Yeah, love the new name. Can't wait to see how it all works.

I hopy my number will decrease on indieDB anyday!
