Super Ninja Hunter NEEDS your help!

Okay whatever, wasn't going to post this here but I promised. Realised there aren't a lot of days left so this is a premature alpha.

A straight copy from the hidden depths of the poppenkast forums:

Okay, I'm starting to get close to the end. Only 10 days left till compo deadline, and I'm in some sort of little creation dip. If you want to help me please play this and comment. :-*

Therefore, I throw this sloppy file here now.

IF IT GIVES an error in the menu, delete save.snh out of your folder.

Just play the story mode, it has 4 out of 5 areas now. So I still have to make one. The first 2 areas have cutscenes. There is music by tim, area 4 music will be changed.

Arcade mode is still a quicky, needs tweaking, spawning done, etc. It's not balanced or whatever yet. You can still try, scores aren't saved.

Oh about scores: Campaign scores aren't saved properly either I think.

A list of things I really need to change soon:

-the hud (ammo for rockets is not displayed, same for everything except chainsaw, which has a crappy bar)

-proper score (online highscore for total campaign score, and arcade score)

-sounds!!!

-area 5

-area 3 and 4 and 5 cutscenes

-a hit effect: now you don't see when you hit something/how much damage you do/when you're hit

-fix boss 4, the walls sometimes bug. And it's too hard.

-minigames for when you complete the game on easy/normal/hard

-some more effects, for like wall destroyage

-proper deaths, all enemies die as standard ninjas

-some tiles, like trees and snowmen in area 4

Please play, report any bugs, etc. If you can't beat an area, use n to skip a level. Don't skip the bossfight, since it will then fuck up.

Hopefully have fun!

Oh some screens:

EDIT:

One last thing: I really don't know what to do with the sound effects… Using ripped stuff is sort of mean on something this "big". I see it as a big game, since I haven't really made anything bigger then gregg the egg. But yeah, either used some ripped/stolen but nice shotgun sounds, OR use sfxr, for some funky retro sounds. What do you guys think? Any advices? HALP! :(

Please tell me whatever you notice/want changed. Thanks! And oh: Sorry for the lack of pics.

BTW: Arcade without a gun? WTF?

EDIT:

I found out you need to use the digits. Some instructions could be useful…

Okay how the fuck do you get up the shaft in level 3 of area 4?

I agree with PY about the boss thing.

I'll add lives.

C-ator9: use your weapons.
