Wait a 'her'...does that mean we have female users ?

Don't be silly David, girls can't make games

I like it! Instantly reminded me of Aqua Forest for the IPhone.

That's neat. It looks kinda like Phun.

OH MY SWEET HOLY F%#K, bullets... everywhere... thousands...

How in the world anyone can enjoy that? Its simply Avoiding => Waiting => Shootin, repeat untill boss is dead.

It's what's known as a "Bullet Hell" shooter. They're pretty common, especially in the Japanese shmup scene.

Part of the allure is making pretty patterns of bullets with math. Some of them are quite intricate.

Personally, I can't stand them But then again, I'm not a big fan of shmups in general. But there's a whole lotta people out there who make and play these so they've got their own little ******** niche.

Welcome back Nobu. Is the project you're talking about finishing that one with the diving cat?

I remember it from Pod's old mascot compo...

Deadeye: I cannot imagine how varying framerates and timedelta would cause large variations (ie. a "mile"). That can't be right. Can you reproduce an example where the variation is that significant?

Well, maybe I was exaggerating a little...

But yeah, it did miss the jump on one and made it on the other, so the difference was pretty noticeable. It's just something you have to watch for when making a game I guess.

I'm not sure I could recreate the exact scenario in which it happened, because I have a better graphics card now, but if I run across the problem again in the future I'll let you know.

I could be way off, i don't really make pixel precision games, but then again, i've never seen much pixel inconsistancy in my games anyways and i use timedelta all the time

In one of my very early experiments with platforming (way, way back in the day), the character could easily make a specific jump if the game was full-screen, but missed it by a mile if the game was windowed (or was it the other way around?). I realize now the only difference was the fps had changed.

The timedelta override would have fixed it. A better graphics card would have fixed it to, but yeah...

Considering the fact that my PSP is sitting on a shelf collecting dust, and has been for the past eight months at least, yeah... I guess I'm just not a big fan of handheld gaming. When I'm at home I have consoles and my computer, and when I'm out, I just enjoy being out. Even if it's something like taking the train downtown, I'd rather just look out the window than play a game.

I think all the fancy gadgets and gizmos are neat, and the techy nerd in me covets them, but in reality if I got a Pandora then after a month it would just sit there doing nothing as well.

The only gizmo I think I would actually get any use out of is an iPhone, because it's, you know... a phone. Plus it would be kinda neat to learn Unity and make games for it.

BROO, did you hear a big *WOOSH* sound at all while typing that post?

No I'm pretty sure he gets it, especially considering this:

When Michael gets emotional, he transforms into a tentacle monster

That would be perfect!

Michael: I am no ordinary kid.. For if you make me mad.. I don't turn green i don't take pill's. I... I just, transform into a tentacle monster...

Aw come on BROO, you don't like gamerguysz idea? (And yes, it's real. No, I'm not kidding.)

PS - the pupal is the black dot in the center of your eye's

Awesome game idea from another board. Just thought I'd share

What you our about to read will be the best game ever created and i do need help with it! Copy right to Gameguysz Inc.

Operation Fallin Angle...

Year 2450 ->

(old mid 50's voice)(Female)

Welcome to EARTH!

The war free planet since 2120, No guns not problem we hear our a kind and simple people with wind water and sun energy some might call it green energy (Static) We...Fun.. Always..

MUHAHAHA!

CRASH! (Giant ships plummeted to earth!)

AHHHHHHHHHHHHH!

Lady: RUN!

(Hard stomps from people running)

2 months later...

(Clinking of chains)

<A line of 100 people>

Captain: Greeting earth we our the followers of Him, You will not look at Him, talk to Him and above all Touch him!

(Camera pans to a 15 -> 16 year old boy and his girl friend)

Boy: My name is Michael... And this is my story.

Guard: Hay you boy! Michael: Huh?!? Guard: Who is that? Michael: My girl friend...

Guard:Hmmm She's nice i think HE will like her!

Michael: NO!!! STOP! (He stands up and gets smacked back down)

Michael: I am no ordinary kid.. For if you make me mad.. I don't turn green i don't take pill's. I... I just, Just talk to her..

(Pans onto Michael's face)

Michael: But you take her away from me...

Well lets just say... I am not me any more.

(Pan's to Right of his eye with a big wide pupal to the left which shrinks to the size on a pee.)

(Evil Cheesy laughter.)

AHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!

(Heavy Breathing)

Michael: More.... Give me, More.

Michael(Spin kick, punches)(People run away)(Crowed of guards rush in to stop the boy)

(Blade comes from Michael's arm and rushes into 3 people shooting them into the air)

The story seems OK written out but if i can get some help with the animation i can do the 40 sec's movie soon.

I also have cool moves for (Michael).

The story with Michael is this

He is a boy who gets picked on at school but holds it all in, he prays for help every night! But he didnt think that HE would show up.

I have a better story and it really seems cool i also like this one, and with the eyes i was trying to say that one eye looks normal but the other pupal is really small.

I have the pupal so if you all want to see what it looks like then ill take a picture, the pupal is the black dot in the center of your eye's.

any more questions just ask me ill answer them.

P.S. When Michael lost his girl friend he was not able to release his feelings so when the guards took his girl friend he was not happy and the FALLEN ANGLE arived...

With great power, Including a blade that shoots out the top of his arm like a spear, but all flesh and bone, a move is when he uses the spear to (like scorpion from Mortal Combat) bring the enemy over to him and just pull out his arm smoothly and just have the enemy basically be thrown at his arm with great force!

Like i said i want to be there when the game is in the making i would love some help with creating this game (I do not know allot about creating games but i am a good idea maker and i know a little bit about C++ JAVA HTML PEARL so on.)

No... you're awesome

Ahg, stop it you guys .
