First try in GE - Pinball Game

[sonicfire]

That´s my first try with GE (as you can see i´m trying to make a pinball / flipper-game).
This version so far is only for testing and making myself familiar with all the features and possibilities of GE.

That´s why i´ve used some ICQ smilies for graphics - just for testing purposes!

EDIT: Forgot to add, the Flippers itself (the red ones) are from an example from Game-Editor.com as far as i remember - so i didn´t do these graphics!!

I have many plans for my new pinball game - i hope i can include them all!

The sounds are from roaylty free sample-CD´s, from me and from other freeware sources (of course they´re only here for testing)

So, let me know your thoughts!

It's really fun!
Are you using the view as score parent?

Thanks

Hmm would that be a better way than just adjusting it´s y position on screen? (I´ve used y = view.y + offset in the Draw Actor Event).

I just noticed that both the score and the little message are somewhat shaking / vibrating when the ball scrolls fast ... But only when running the exported EXE file... when i start it from GE its standing still

If the exported version works different from editor, it's a bug.
Can you send me the project of this game?

It's better make the view parent of the display elements (score, life indicators...)

A Bug? Oh

Sure, you can get it here:

That view scrolling thing/event is in the view region itself which is at -120,160. I hope you dont mind the mess
