I am new to Flash and am very interested in gaming. I am almost finished with my latest game, "The Last Shock Trooper" which is located at http://www.fasthosting.net/shoot/ . It is not very comclicated, all it uses is basically just movie clips, tell targeting, and buttons. It is fun, nonetheless, though. I would like to start using games where you control a character and have him shoot out at things. (and vice versa with the enemies). Using collision detect. I know nothing about it and would love to start learning how to use it. What is the first thing I should do or check out? Also, does anyone have a tutorial up? (hopefully not just a .fla cauz I hate picking them apart. Thanks everyone and tell me how you like my game so far!
P.s. In the game you cannot die because I didnt make the die scene yet. And there is no ending.
Space Bar shoots, n jumps (or kneals?), m kneals (or jumps?), left to go left, right to go right, up to shoot up, down to aim down. There is only collision detection for o ne badguy.
We started this about 8 months ago then abandoned it. We are talking about continuing with it but we would start over since we are all better programmers/designers now.
I just posted that for viewing. At this time we are not releasing any .flas for this.
Hope seeing this helps show you what can be done in Flash!
