  • Hi everyone,

    I am currently playing around with the new multiplayer plugin, and I would like to create some sort of a server browser. To do that, I need to get the entire room list under a specific instance of the game. I saw that the plugin already has a function that allows to request the game instance list, so I was wondering if it is possible to do that for the rooms.

  • Hi !

    I just posted a new demo version of the game.

    You can get it here : http://www.indiedb.com/games/8-bit-runner/downloads/8-bit-runner-demo-20140223-windows32

    8 Levels available, 2 Worlds (Nature and Industrial).

    Unzip, open the folder you just unzipped, and start "8bitrunner-demo.exe".

    There might still be a couple of bugs. Feedback on difficulty and bugs are greatly apreciated. The online leaderboards are disabled for now.

    Xbox360 Controllers are supported, just connect your controller, and press A, a small controller shaped icon should pop up on the bottom left corner of the screen, that means your controller is ready to use. To get back to keyboard mode, just press any key on your keyboard (a small keyboard icon should pop up on the bottom left corner of the screen).

  • Hi !

    We're not dead yet ! And good news, we're still working on the game.

    I made a simple website where you can have access to a demo (both web and Windows versions)

    http://8bitrunner-game.com/

    I will also post the next demo on clay.io.

    I made several changes to the menus, I added a few features, new levels, and new world (nature, but it's not playable yet, there will be 2 nature levels in the upcoming demo).

    We also worked on animated objects (grass, falling leaves with physics) to put in the nature levels, and on a new weather effects system (only rain is available at the moment, but we will add more).

    Unfortunately, as you may have guessed, I cannot post the game on Scirra Arcade anymore because of the plugins restriction.

    And to answer the question "Can you provide a capx of your game ?", I cannot do that since this is a commercial game, but I can answer your questions about how I did certain things in the game if you really want to know.

  • So, basically, you are selling a game that uses sprites and tiles from another commercial game ?

    What kind of sorcery is this ?

  • Currently working on water in 8BR. I'm working on a demo for an indie event in Paris next month.

  • Pyxel Edit is an awesome tool for making tilesets : http://pyxeledit.com/index.php

    And it's free.

  • Bumping with a Christmas Update !

    A few things were added, like the options menu (where you can set both sound effects and music volumes), you can change your runner's color to fit your liking, and the 3rd demo level was added.

    I tweaked some things in the 2 previous levels,so I had to clear the leaderboards once again :(

    I also fixed a bug in the leaderboards display, the scores were not displaying properly (0:94:2 instead of 1:34:2 for example).

  • If you make a little game without any intention to sell it, I don't think you'll be in trouble. I used to use rips from this website a lot when I was making RPG Maker games a few years ago. Very useful.

  • No problem, I am currently working on it, it may take a couple of weeks to have everything set up.

    Thank you for your support ! :-)

  • Thanks !

    The game is getting a refine, one tileset at a time, but it will take us some time. We are really busy, so it might be long.

    I'd like to post it on Greenlight, but if I remember correctly, Steam only accepts .exe for now, and I am still a student, so I can't pay the submission fee. Maybe I will try later :-)
