NeuroPulse [WIP

Pazil — Thu, 16 May 2013 21:55:10 GMT

So in the spirit of hopefully getting back to a bit more regular checking up on this forum, I figured I'll share a game project me and a friend (both programmers) are working on, NeuroPulse!

http://themangomachine.tumblr.com/

It was a game idea I originally had about a year ago, and when we heard about Microsoft's Imagine Cup, we started development, and also refining our ideas for it.
Right now we're undergoing a pretty big refactoring, and changing some of the core gameplay elements to feel smoother, and easier to change by the player.

I haven't found an easy way of explaining exactly what goes on in NeuroPulse, which might be a symptom of us not know what is going on either :D but we're getting close, and more and more things are being hammered out. We even started thinking of a really cool (imo) storyline for it, though we still have a ways to go before even getting near implementing that.

I'll try updating this thread as we have more developments concerning NeuroPulse, it's still very very early pre-alpha!
From the little you guys know, it would be cool to hear what you guys think, or if you have any questions!

P.

ps: Music and sound fx are by me, graphics are generated, except for the texture, which I generated really quickly. Ogre3d is being used for the rendering, CEGUI as the GUI library, and the Anax Entity System for the entity system stuff we're using. (I've become an Entity System fanatic now...)

App Q

mistygreen217 — Thu, 02 May 2013 12:04:02 GMT

I am working on developing an app for medical billing and patient tracking, using messaging and attachments.
Does anyone know of an HIPAA compliant secure text messaging API out there?

adding Pictures to anagram game

blargh — Sun, 28 Apr 2013 23:59:52 GMT

hey guys

I followed a tut online and got code for an anagram elearning game.
I would like to try and add more elements to it.I would like to associate the anagram word with the corresponding picture when the game plays how would i go about doing that here is the code from the main game class any help would be great.

Code:

package {

                import flash.display.MovieClip;

                import flash.text.TextField;

                import flash.events.MouseEvent;

                        var rand1:int;var rand2:int; //variables used for randomization

                        var i:int; //variable used for loop iterations

                        var ii:int;

                        var ques_num:int; //used to track the question number

                        var current_word:String; //used to hold the current word being tested

                        var user_ans:String; //used to hold the user's answer

                        var tileArray:Array = new Array; //array of tile objects

Riot

Working on this, wanted to have a thread where i can showcase it and to which i can add more as we go.

RIOT is in active development, but still at an early stage. We aim to reach the beta in the next months.

If you missed the Indiegogo campaign, and/or want to back and support RIOT and/or pre-purchase it, have a look here: http://riotgame.org

Game Help!!!

Jacob123 — Tue, 23 Apr 2013 15:14:13 GMT

Hello all, I know this is my first post, but I need some big help. Me and my friend are designing an educational game for my Web Design class. Most other people just copied some tutorials, but since we play a lot of games, we wanted to make it fun. So it's kinda hard to describe, but it is most like this game: http://www.funny-games.biz/elona-shooter.html

It's going to be for American History, four characters are going to be lined up to the right behind sandbags with a flag behind them. You control one of them, as waves of 4 at a time, enemies come toward you, a messenger comes up to you and a asks you a question, it appears on screen, and above each enemy an answer choice appears. You shoot the one you think has the right answer. Each correct one raises the flag, each wrong will will probably lower it.

We are doing it in Flash 8, with Actionscript 1.0 & 2.0, we have one week to finish our coding, we have no idea how to get started. Please help. Here is what our "game" looks like so far.
