Game challenge #8 Final Entries!

@TOdorous : I realize that...My next step was adding barrier animations so you can see if it's broken, instead of walking over to it and checking. Also, the zombies do go to the barriers first, IF it's not broken down. I admit, that then, the AI sucks, since if their barrier's broken, then they just follow the player. A node system will be next (Actually, I'm redesigning the whole game...
(Plus, my game isn't even that solid of a shooter)

@M4R7IN : Sure! I'll just clean up the library, and add comments!

Im open-sourcing my project. See attache file.
Hope some othre contestants are doing this aswell.
:)

@pseudobot, yep. I'm also going to open-source it on the weekend.
Its just that the code is a mess right now, and I need to fix some bugs.
And maybe add some comments??!

GRRR...I was about to upload my project, when it ran into problems, and now I lost my whole library!!! The only thing I have left is just the code, which actually isn't too bad, since I can just redraw the map, the zombies, the player, etc...even the guns!!! But for my open-source version I'll make a nicer map, maybe upgrade the AI, and add more guns.

P.

Ok.

I finally went and redrew all my library symbols, and it now works again. I have 4 guns, I added a better shotgun. Now, the bullet strength also changes with each new gun. The level is a bit different, and the zombies and the player look different, but I think they look a lot better. Plus there will be a lot more variety among the zombies (I just copied and paste my body drawings from my old Paintball Xtreme game...)

P.

EDIT:
There are 2 movieclips that everyone should add to my game engine.
---One, is an animation of blood spattering. Make sure that the spatter starts from 0,0 MC local coord.'s, and that it is going to the left (One blood drop would start at 0,0, then move to the left). You should give this symbol the linkage ID of "blood". Remember to delete any instances that are already on stage. And there you have the blood MC that is attached whenever a zombie is hit by a bullet.
---The other is any coloured bar (originally red) with the width of 100px. The height doesn't really matter, but looks best if it's around 20 or so. For this one, you'll need to drag it onto the stage (Not the world MC, but a layer somewhere above world MC), and put it beside the kills dynamic text box. Give the bar the instance name of "hbar"! This is the health bar, to who's _xscale I reference to near the top of the onEnterFrame function.

If anyone needs any help, just give me a shout!

Hey, when's the next game challenge going to be?

So bad it didn't load :( Though, thanks for trying to play it and for taking the time to review the games :)

Thanks for sharing, never knew you could write

Code:

---

                delete onMouseUp;
                delete onEnterFrame;

---

that would have saved me so much trouble >_<

No problemo!

@Woad : The next comp. should be around February. It's going to be a team comp., so with partners, for a week! Hopefully you'll be joining too?

And thank-you TOdorous for writing those review also! It did help a lot!

EDIT: Another fix for my Source File release. You need to make an animation of 2 feet walking to the right, and put them in the player MC, in a layer under the body, and give it an instance name of "legs". These are the legs that you can see under the player in the original version. Nothing too important...

Yeah I'll join if I can remember it, I'll write it down some place, thanks.
Nice game btw.

Ok, more info. Comps will start either [you decide] on tyhe 1st of the month, or on the first weekend in the month. So in february, it would either start on the 1st, or on february 3rd.

Results Posted in 1st post!!

Congrats Pazil! All games were awesome games, even with the time constraint. Thanks to Pseudobot for organizing it. I can't wait for the next one. Working in teams should be fun.

Ahahaha! Can't wait to get my teeth into that pear! Love it!

Everyone elses game's were really good...in fact, I don't really feel right winning this, since I felt that everyone else put in so much more work...
Well, thanks anyways guys! And I can't wait for the next competition! Should be interesting to see how the team thing comes along!

All your games were great!
Thanks again!
