[Very beta] - Alien Tunel

HumbuckeR · 10-31-2004, 02:42 PM

Hi.

Got bored and decided to make a game - Alien Tunel! - the objective is really simple. Get to the end of the tunnel! Note that is still in very early stages of development and future changes include -

Graphical Improvements
Improved collision detection
Increased difficulty
Opening screen
Sound

To control the spaceship use the left mouse button to make it go up

I'd like to hear some feedback, sugestions and bugs.

BTW is "tunel" with 1 or 2 "T"?

Either I am crazy, or there is no tunnel. (2 "n" by the way) You sure you uploaded the right thing?

Anyway, I really love these kinds of games and from what I saw, it is a pretty stable engine.

I can see the tunel... I tryed it in IE 6. But try it now - Alien Tunnel

Anyway i've attached the SWF. Good playin'!

there is a tunnel, is it like the copter game where you have to make it as far as possible, how do you generate the tunnel because i have bben wondering this for a while, i presume the tunnel is infinite and not just a scrolling background that has been drawn.

looks quite good at the moment.

Interesting. The tunnel is being generated by the safari flash player 7 plugin but it runs fine locally on my computer (not in the plugin). I can only guess why without knowing how you generate the cave.

Despite this, I really think it is a great start. I was addicted for about a year to a game like this on my mom's PDA.

The tunnel is generated through actionscript and it is random, just like mbenney's, but I wrote my own function, which I think is better (no disrespect for Mbenney, i learn't a lot from his open source files) because it's simpler, and you can control the number of segments you want.

If you want the source e-mail or PM me.

I like this simple game style where you can just click and release. One thing I noticed was the walls never close in on the center of the tunnel. You should force the player to move up and down a little more.
