haha Would a pic prove anything when I could easily do..

"Set PlayerScore to 100000"

and if I had a time machine I'd do a video to prove my 81seconds ;p

Yeah the pinball one was funny! Could make for a fun game that one.

Joined the gamemakersguild... looks interesting

Yeah it's amazing how fast you can get a prototype done. I started doing that a while ago, but instead of stopping and moving on after each one, I couldn't resist taking the prototypes further. I did think about just hammering away one after the other but it is hard to stop when you get something solid going ;p

The good thing about these short sessions is you'll not get bored as easy, you'll increase your dev speed with each one, it exercises your creativity, AND you'll have many many working ideas rather than ideas jotted down in Notepad or something.

I'll check these when I have more time. I've procrastinated enough tonight ;p

Looking good

You really don't need to have each devdiary in seperate posts.

The game looks pretty cool.. reminds me of Alien Breed.

But those shoulder pads.. ;p

You could try a yellow - same colour as player - rectangle that's the same dimensions as the player. Have it pinned to the player and Z order should be behind the player. Add the COLOR effect to the rectangle. Since most of the screen is black, it won't show anything there, but will only show where there is any colour behind it.

Did a small test and it seemed to work.. it might be the closest you'll get to the colour clash effect.

Congrats!

Ah yeah.. I remember you saying! Still easier than pixelling each frame ;p

Does this help? InApp CocoonJS GooglePlay Tutorial

Awesome graphics. Would make any Megaman fan happy!

The reason your code didn't work is because you're comparing 2 instances of the same type. To get around that, you can either "pick instance x" x=0 being the 1st instance, and x=1 being the 2nd. Or put the instances into a family, then you can compare the family with the instance... so it'd be like "if MinionFamily OVERLAPS Minion then..."

But yeah, arrays will work for this but will require you to change a lot of your code and if you haven't used them before, or have little experience with arrays in general, then you'll have a big hill to climb.

EDIT> Just realised you're using the free version. Families are a no-go then but my first suggestion will work (pick instance x)

Yeah the music was a bit repetitive. It could be a cool little game after much tweaking
