Almost all my character animation is hand drawn so I'll share my stuff too:

https://www.scirra.com/arcade/action-games/candy-basket-a-halloween-game-3190

All the sprites in this game are drawn and inked on paper. Then I scan it and add the colours in photshop and what not so I can put it together in Spriter. (I haven't touched this game since halloween, it could use some polishing...)

And here is some early experimentation, it's by no means finished.

All the body parts you can see there to the left are hand inked with a brush. Sounds kind of fancy, but it's probably quicker this way for me than to ink it with my wacom. As you can see in the close-up, the lines aren't super smooth, but zoomed out they look fairly smooth. But then, if you want it super smooth, maybe vector graphics is the way to go.

That's didn't, not doesn't, because now it seems to run fine, but I loaded the game twice and it didn't work properly. The start screen loaded but not the music. When you pressed the key to start the game it triggered the animation like it should but was missing a pinned-object. Then the next layout never started. Runs fine in chrome so far. Could it have been the internet connection went offline for a moment and screwed things up?

this is the link I used:

So I posted this game around last halloween and now I have reworked the game; polished it and added a bunch of stuff. The level design isn't a complete mess anymore.

Here it is:

and leave a comment if you like, good or bad.

Seems like you have to increase the max speed a lot to make Vector X work and give a proper "push".

And I'll throw in this example I found somewhere on this board:

on collision with enemy

set vectorX: (self.X-enemy.x)/Abs(self.X-enemy.X)*1000000

this works from both left and right of the enemy and "pushes" you back in the opposite direction.

Great, thanks a lot!

That takes care of the grenede problem mentioned in the first post too; Trigger-once messed things up, so that's good to know.

I guess I'll be a nuisance and bump this thread now and then and see if anyone can help .

I have tried lots of different things and looked in the tutorial section, but of no avail...

and here is a pic of the simplified code.

I think this is the example capx from the first page (broken link).

Bump.

Here's the example even more simplified:

The AI is just some random events, I can't make this work with two or more enemies on screen...

Well,it doesn't seem to work for me no matter how simple I make it...

here is a somewhat simplified version

Again, it works with one instance but not with two or more. Is there is some way to make it work?

Back with some instance trouble, I just don't seem to grasp it ....

https://dl.dropboxusercontent.com/u/98471899/Scirra/testAI.capx

I tried to make some basic AI here and it works with one instance but if you duplicate the soldier it will mess up things. Not sure about the "For Each" event here, it doesn't seem to work with or without it....

And press Z will create a grenade that should land on the solid block, it works most of the time but sometimes it falls through the block if you keep pressing Z enough times.

It's because it is testing all of those conditions every tick and so only paying attention to the last two. The tree works because it is the last in the list - Change the order of the events so that the events testing for the house are last and it will work for the house and not the tree. Perhaps if you changed your conditions to an 'on collision' test? Maybe that would work?

Thanks for the help.

I redid it here and it seems to work OK now (but needs a bit polish).
