Thanks for the nice comments guys <img src="{SMILIES_PATH}/icon_e_smile.gif" alt=":)" title="Smile">

Here's a youtube video to better demonstrate the gameplay:

Liero had a similar technology for blood and projectiles. Good times. My bet is that it's particles bound by physics.

It's ok I'm currently juggling names back and forth. It's only temporary. Thanks for checking the game out!

Thanks R0J0hound, it works wonders and that link was very helpful!

Hi! I am trying to retreive text from a txt file and display the content on the screen. I'm using AJAX to retreive the content of the .txt file and it works fine but I'm at a loss as for how to retreive a specific part of the textfile.

Say my textfile look like this:

"

01 text!

02 another text!

"

How can I retreive only the part that starts with 01 and stop reading after the exclamation mark?

Thanks!

Thank you!

I have a temporary logo for the game for marketing purposes:

Razzia (working title)

Follow the development more closely on Twitter! https://twitter.com/Secluded_Game

Razzia is a cinematic platformer in the style of Abe's Oddysee, Flashback and Blackthorn. I really loved those games as a kid and still do and I've starved for another one for a long time, I decided to start making my own game in that style several months ago and now want to show you how far I've come.

As the game is a cinematic platformer it is my goal to pay homage to what made those games great but I also want to take the opportunity to fix the things I didn't like about them.

Fluent, lifelike animations

Cinematic platformers always had great animation work and as a visual artist first and programmer second I've worked hard on getting the animation up to par with those old games. Every animation is drawn by hand, in my experience tweening reduce the organic quality of traditional animation, so far the main character have a frame count of ~500 total.

You are dedicated to your actions

Think before you act! There is no way to cancel actions mid-animation. If you press right, you walk right, if you jump, you jump and you can't redirect yourself mid-air. The reason for this is to ensure that even your most basic actions have consequences.

Body-language based combat with "wherever-you-want" cover system

We are used to taking cover at specific points in games (geometry, debris etc.) but not very often are we allowed to take cover everywhere we want. In Razzia I want to replicate the combat system seen in Blackthorn where both you and the enemy can take cover everywhere. The interesting part is how you have to look at your enemies and refer to their bodylanguage to determine whether to shoot, take cover or roll away.

Gadgets

Razzia will have several different gadgets for the player to use in combat, to solve puzzle or traverse your environment including a teleporter, bombs and a hacker device to activate or deactivate things.

Puzzle Platformer

Cinematic Platformers have always been a very vertical genre so the main character will have the ability to climb and grab ledges but beware! your character is not immortal, fall from too far a height and you will drop to your death. You can expect a wide variety of different puzzles that will force you to utilize all your platformer skills and gadgets.

I welcome any and all suggestions! I hope you like what you see and if you have the ability to spread the word I'd be very thankful!

Thank you for checking out [Razzia]!

Thanks for the quick answer DAG!

What I did was:

1) in the function call I added as a param(0) : "instance.UID"

2) in the function I picked instance UID by Param(0) ..

..and it works! Thanks DAG

Hi! I am having a problem with multiple instances acting weird and interrupting each other's intended actions. The enemy event sheet contains a number of functions and as far as I understand it functions disregard instance.UID unless it is passed onto the function? So my question is: how do I pass instance UID onto a function to prevent the contents of the function to affect every instance of an object?

Specifically, when an enemy turns around (turning around is written in a function) every other enemy that don't need to turn around at that moment do so anyway and I guess it's because the function affects every instance because it disregard UID?

I have searched but the only answers I've found has been very hard to understand or explained poorly.

Thanks in advance!

It's far too basic and general to be used.

Sounds like you're calling it useless to me but I digress.

It does its job and it does it well. I can definitely see a use for it as I'm currently trying to make a transition function. With this things will probably be easier.
