Ok, I'm very busy with work. I work every day this week except for Sunday. As you can imagine, that takes a good sized chunk out of my Game Maker time. Despite all of that, I have managed to continue working on it.
New Game mode added.Although it's really one of the old one's from ETPower BallWhoever has the powerball gains super health. However, you now become the main target as everyone seeks to take the powerball from you.This brings my game modes total up to eight. (See past blogs for other game modes.)I have managed to program the weapon drops. So now I can, say, play Rockets only or snipers only. It's a lot of fun to do Rockets only. Explosions everywhere!My current weapon drop modes are.Normal Shotguns onlyRockets onlyFlamethrowers onlySnipers onlyAny other weapon drop modes you can think of?There is also this little fact. I need to finish this game before the fall. If I don't then I'll be going to collage and my production time will drop even slower than it is now. So you all better hope that I manage to get it done before the fall. Which should happen unless online takes alot more work than I'm planning on.The public should get one more demo before the final game. I will release a demo that contains about three game modes and two levels. It shouldn't be to far away. Something like a month or so.
What kind of game is this? Oh, how about grenades only, or mines.
@RoyalSmacketh:
http://64digits.com/games/index.php?cmd=view_game&id=2834 A shotgun/sniper drop would be very cool.Thanks for the link.
Drop Mode Ideas:
Total Chaos: Only the most explosive weapons!Melee War: Melee weapons onlyPistols only: Self explanatoryRoyalSmacketh: The link explains all. I don't have grenades or land mines. Though they were good ideas.
Kinda like a longrange/shortrange thing? Not bad. I might just do it.Total Chaos: I thought of that myself, but what weapons do you consider to be the most explosive. (List all you think apply)I have no melee.A pistols only is a good one.-ElmerniteGrenades
Rocket launchersGrenade LaunchersRPGsAnything that makes a big BOOM!Rocket Launcher
FlamethrowersMachine Gun@elmerinte: Ok.Ok, thanks!
I'll see about adding some more of those. Hopefully, I get some more time to work on it.-Elmernite4000 hits.
