Nice game.
Very good job!

Nice to see something you've done, it's been too long from the last time.

[Hblade]

Thanks you like it? :3

On a scale of 1 to 10, what would you rate this game?

(BTW I CANT GET PASS LEVEL 15 I'm always like around 200 points away )

Also, in part 2, there will be a multi-dir shooter which shoots 6 shots in all directions ^^

[lcl]

Yeah, I like.
Maybe 8.

This is very hard game. I just got to level 2 and died.

How did you do that shotgun shooting? I mean those "bullets" go to different directions?
I think you made their angles be some different values, but how?

[Hblade]

How to make them?

Simple xD My code is sloppy, I know

Code: Select all

void CREATE_SHOT(int TYPE) {
    if (TYPE == 0) {
    if (TMP == 0) {
        TIMER = 24;
        TMP = 1;
                  }
    if (TIMER>=48) {
        PlaySound2("data/lazer_shot.wav", 0.700000, 1, 0.000000);
        CreateActor("SHOT", "item", "(none)", "(none)", 0, 0, false);
        sdir=1;
        CreateActor("SHOT", "item", "(none)", "(none)", 0, 0, false);
        sdir=2;
        CreateActor("SHOT", "item", "(none)", "(none)", 0, 0, false);
        sdir = 3;
        CreateActor("SHOT", "item", "(none)", "(none)", 0, 0, false);
        sdir = 4;
        CreateActor("SHOT", "item", "(none)", "(none)", 0, 0, false);
        sdir = 0;
        TIMER = 0;
                  }
                   }
       if (TYPE == 1) {
           if (TMP == 0) {
        TIMER = 24;
        TMP = 1;
                         }
        if (TIMER>=24) {
           sdir = 5;
           PlaySound2("data/lazer_shot.wav", 0.700000, 1, 0.000000);
           CreateActor("SHOT", "item", "(none)", "(none)", 0, 0, false);
           sdir = 0;
           TIMER = 0;
                      }
                      }
                   }


Thats the global Void function. For the bullet actor, called "SHOT", have this in Create Actor

Code: Select all

r = level*24;
g = 255 - (level * 24);
b = 89;
xvelocity = 14;
switch(sdir)
{
    case 0:
    yvelocity = -2;
    break;
    case 1:
    yvelocity = -1;
    break;
    case 2:
    yvelocity = 0;
    break;
    case 3:
    yvelocity = 1;
    break;
    case 4:
    yvelocity = 2;
    break;
    case 5:
    xvelocity = 16;
    yvelocity = 0;
}

Ok, nice work!

Btw, look here if you want: viewtopic.php?f=4&t=9246
Not that you might need it...

[Hblade]

thanks ^^

[rykein]

Did you plan for holding down both fire buttons to shoot faster? pretty good start, though I gave up due to boredom after getting level 16, very repetitive.

[Hblade]

lol the second version has ships xD

And yeah that was a keyboard cheat o.o It doesnt work for controller xD I got rid of it with part 2.


Part 2 has a shield too xD

[Bee-Ant]

Add "Winter" before the "Blast" it would make it even cooler
Finally...
Nice game

[Hblade]

lol thanks xD Soon I'll upload screenshots of part 2 :3

Two thumps up man.
You make a shadow following a ship very nice.
The clound graphic is nice.

[Hblade]

Thanks, chai

The next version will have ship graphics, and will have better looking clouds. It will also have a shield xD
