Hey so I am making a game for the space themed competition and I thought why not make a progress report like page!!(With a check list!!)

Game: SkySpace

Plot: The Earth and Moon have collided and now the citizens of earth live in a situation where there are different gravity zones Throughout where they live. Those who have space suits live and those that don't tend to have a little more trouble living(Death not to be harsh).

GamePlay: You play a boy in a space suit that has to progress a level and make it to the end.

CheckList:

Art[||||||     ]

Gravity[|||||||| ]

PlayerMech[|||||    ]

Objects[|||       ]

Some of these images have place holder graphics. ;)

Test:

NightSky Capx

Thanks i will try that. :)

Thanks it is the beginning to my entry for the space competition. It is no where near done.

OK thanks I removed the physics behaviour. thought I needed it to make my char collide. It runs a little smoother maybe I am just being picky. Thanks for that Ashley. You learn something new everyday even when it is so simple. :)

And i tried it in Firefox it is the same. I think i just am being picky.

Yeah there really isn't anything wrong. It is just i find that when i run the game the movement seems choppy. It may just be my browser, chrome.

Hey, Currently i find that platform movement seems jumpy or bumpy, is there a way to make it more smooth.

e.g do the movement differently to make it less choppy?

Game was fun, and really once you get past 20 it is unbelievably hard so not a huge problem that it crashed.

1 single level is fine as long as it feels like a game and not a demo!

Any game goes pretty much as long as it feels like a full game and not just a demo.

OK cool I am working on something.

Do the games have to have lots of level or can it have 1 single level as long as it has playable and well tuned game play and graphics?

Hey, May be a problem but chrome crashes after i get like 20 hearts because the scripts use up too much memory.

Thanks, i will ake a look at what you have said and linked. :)

Ok got it working. I was thinking how instance variables work wrong. Now that i kno how they work it will be a lot easier.

Hey Carminie, I am new here but i have been programming for a few years. My suggestion is make a health bar image that has a set of animations that each are at a different point in the health bar. Then when you lose heath or gain health you can set the animation to a different frame. With this you can also incorporate an instance variable that represents the amount of health you have.

[|||||||||]- first frame

[|||||||| ] - second frame

[||||||   ] - third frame

..... - other frames

[        ] - empty health (dead)

there may be a better way or even a better way of explaining this.

sorry if this is not helpful.
