Maelstrom Development

Yup!! I was at teh Hampstah's house today, and I saw it action. Although, you only get to choose your color (I think).

... and make your character name. I might add more options later, though.

you better!


not a threat

ok, iv'e run into a problem with my collision engine. i can either make it so you need to walk into arrows to go to the next screen, or the screen scrolls. if I just make it so you need arrows the game will run much faster, and it will be much eaiser to implement different classes. on the other hand, haveing the screen scroll is sorta cool.

opinions?

whatever is easier, once its done you can work on the finer bits

Put the arrows, so we can have classes.

mmmkay.

It's Easy mmmkay!

yay south park!

11/20/07- Added classes yay! SO far I have the standard class, the sandman class (which is uber cool) and the enforcer class. I'm planning on adding 2 more, the haxor class and the demon class.

AlSo- i might make it so you can make your own custom class 0_0

oooo... nice touch

12/10/07 - mmmkay, there will only be three classes available at the start of the game, i will probably make it so you can buy new classes in the game though. Also, i've changed the code a little, without going into tons of detail basically i made it so every time your character sprite appears (which is allot) the computer doesn't have to check what class you are and then create the right sprite. Instead i made it so the class name is a string so the computer just creates the sprite that is the same name as the string. It sound s really simple but i've cut out like half of the code in the you_keydown method which should hopefully make the game run faster. whew.

skillz, nice touch

GO GO GO

Nice!
Sounds awesome

12/19/07 - made a cool cut scene involving soviets and a bunch of random soldiers blowing the shit out of each other!

12/23/07 - i'm almost finished with the first character's opening level, i just need to make a boss.

1/06/07- i have the navigation system all figured out, basically you start at a map screen and can fast travel (teleport) to any location along the main roads in the game, and once you're at that location you can walk around and use arrows to move to the next screen. then when you want to leave return to the road and and you can fast travel again.

Scores above 100 are as shows:

10=5>10=(X.150)=?
10 equals 5 greater than 10 equals 15 multiplied by 150 equals 2250
10=15x150=2250

5=10>20=(Y.350)=?
5 equals 10 greater than 20 equals ? multiplied by 350 equals 10500
10=30x350=10500
