Busy busy busy. I leave for Texas next Friday. Woo! Its insane. Things to do, places to go, gotta store my stuff, etc.
For the last week, things have been really busy here, and this week is even worse.For instance, I've had to work like mad on Actionscript stuff. I had to scrap the entire thing I was doing for my project because I realized it didn't follow the guidelines, meaning I've had to write an entire game in actionscript from scratch in about 12 hours - everything - it has to have 15 levels, 3 difficulties, etc. I had to scrap it because it was supposed to be an arcade type game, and mine was too 'complex'.Platform shooters aren't that complex.=/That and for fun, I wrote about 700 lines of code for a point-and-click actionscript engine, and it is beautiful. Totally reusable for multiple games. =PI've also started writing my own smooth-collision code in actionscript, because suprisingly, it doesn't have any built-in smooth-collision detection methods. Only bounding boxes. That sucks, doesn't it?So I'll be busy for a while. I miss being able to get on, but in 2 weeks, I'll have the summer free.
You sound busy.
People who have lives are cool.I think I leave Texas next friday!
Have a good trip.
Also I have had that happen too with a project that does not meat the guide lines.It sucks!You could keep the action script platform engine and make it arcade-ish.All you have to do is to make it so the player keep going to the left or right and you can jump to collect things plus kill things. Also use black and neon style(Like geo-wars) to give more arcade feel.Good luck.^_^While your at it, make a smooth-collision code in gml. I need it for CC2. [;)]
Have fun in texas, i hope the country folk don't eat you.Your almost to freedom, the 3 months of summer your going to get.
@Chigger - O_o - the name of my flash game is Close Call - chosen randomly.
Randomly huh… i guess we've been using too many mind influencing mediums.
