So I finaly finished the current project. I made it for the experimentalgameplay where the theme was "bare minimum". So I decided to use only rectangles for graphics. Total work time on the project is 20 hours. Somewhere 12 hours are normal stuff and 8 hours are searching the web for many mathematical formulas. Yea this project was hard. I had to do many advanced math for collision detection and all. But I made it.
Here is the screenie:
As I said here is the timelapse video made with chronolapse.
Go to youtube to see HQ. I think then you can even read the code.
All together it was a good project. But the only problem is ( as I just checked experimentalgameplay ) and the made a post of all the games. Mine isn't included. That is because I could'n post a comment in the topic. Darn it. Oh well.
sweet! The right-click function is brilliant. Really cool idea.
ReplyDeleteThe only problem I had was that it stops firing when I do the right click attack. I should be firing again after I do the special move. (Left mouse down should always be firing, except when right button is down).
Anyways, nice job. I'm sure the particle system was a fun challenge.
The blue bullets felt like they could've been a little stronger.
Big thanks.
ReplyDeleteYea the particles attack is a little weak. :D
Hey, do you use a game engine or do you make your games from scratch (i.e., write your own engine?)
ReplyDeleteI make them from scratch. I use SDL for input and OpenGL for rendering. Everything else is mine.
ReplyDeleteHey cool game, the movement and firing felt really smooth. I like how the squares looked and how the game felt. I wish it could have been listed as well but keep trying and maybe you can get in the next one.
ReplyDeleteHey man!
ReplyDeleteJust wanted to say: You're awesome! This blog and what you're doing is what indie development is all about. I stumbled accross this site because I'm playing the meandmyshadow clone and I just love the idea of that game! I have to check out squared shooter though, I love the minimalistic graphics.
Keep on doing what you're doing best!
Cheers,

This game is awesome
