Here is an actual release of the little game I through together.
From the game (objective):
"Try to keep yourself away from being smacked (not too violent for the younger users) by the enemy, while at the same time, trying to outline the field grid to banish the evil."
In some comments I had on this, some said the 'characters' in this looked alot like 'spiders', so I might as well use it as what the characters are. Your a green spider (good) and all your fellow spiders are evil (red) and have bulked up on the count of herbal enhancers
Main Features:
-Mirror Mode: Completely inverts the playing field. Light -> Dark, Dark->Light, the background image is flipped completely, and the white grid lines are now a shade of gray and randomly disapperaed, meaning its harder than non-Mirror Mode since you are most likely to backtrack alot.
- MP3 Player is built-in, will only play music from the MUSIC directory, sub-folders aren't supporteded yet. Seeking back/forward, Repeat song On/off and Pause/Stop/Play
- Auto-Randomized 'slow-down' of the game play near the end of each stage, so you can both check out the abstract background hidden beneathe, and rest your fingers a little
Controls are:
X -- Mirror Mode Toggle (on/off)
O -- Pause/Resume Song
[] -- Stop Song
/\ -- Toggle Repeat
D-Pad -- Control Movement
L/R Triggers -- Seek Forward/Backward
Start -- Pause
Select -- Exit
Bugs:
Not any real bugs... A few un-finished features most likely...
- MP3 Player: I have all my music in sub-folders, so in-order to test, i simply took one out and placed it in MUSIC folder, so when seeking forward/backward, it stayed on the same song, obviously, so if I could get a report on whether it works like it should, seeking/repeat, then thatd be great
(I am pressed for time so testing more on this right now is out of the question
)
- Because I am using an already ortho-view state, using a bitmapped font for text got scrambled and modifying the code made it worse as its strict
So there isnt any text in game, but the visuals are enough... The Top-left green spiders are your lives (max of 5), the top-most blue-diamonds stand for the level your on, while the twinkling diamonds below it, are what stage, very easy and simple to understand, so illiterates can even play
(just joking around)
- No sound, as I love my music, so hereing powerup sounds and such would ruin it for me... Sorry, but I got to be selfish a little on this one.
The splash image is built into the game so anytime any one plays, it they will no doubt see it, so Dr. Neo, hope thats ok. Meaning, you uncover the playing field, and underneathe it is the splash image... just like the GetTheStars game has it, so it should be ok....
Where do i go to host it?
