Game challenge #8 has Started!!

ok... apocalipsis genre, anyone?

wow you guys are all amazing at graphics and programming... only 2 hours or so left :(

Ok, obstacles are collapsing. Now, some sound fx.
Never_land, it has an apocalipse theme.
You need to read the backstory for that :p

I don't think I'll be able to submit anything. My games hitTesting isn't working, and I've only been able to work on it a total of about 5 hours now...I have no idea why it's going so f***ing slow...I'm rusty with game making, haven't made one in a while, atleast not a typical shooter...

I already vote that next comps theme is life / organisms. I've got a perfect idea for that...

P.

Nope not going to have time to finish. Just finished the level design for 1 level, I was hoping for at least 3, and don't have any graphics, soundfx, anything else started yet... mehhhhh T.T

I have to go out now. 0% chance I will finish (only 1 level done). I'll continue to work on it though and i'll post it here, just not as a contest entry.

^You guys, just show what you have got at the end of he deadline.
Jonathan, it's allready a lot to have 1 level. No, really, it is for such a short timeframe.

I don't expect any of you to have a full-blown game. That would be simple ignorance. But I DO want you guys to do te best you can....so use those 70 minutes you guys have left.
:)

I wanted to enter this comp but I've been a bit busy these days so I wasn't able to enter :( Good luck to everyone :thumbsup: Btw, how much time is missing for it to end (just in case :P)

About 15 minutes. ANyway, there will be more of these comps, so don't worry about that too much.
-Pseudo
:)

Ok here it is: http://devkiwi.com/archives/35

I'm doing a super fast 15 min game to enter :p

See attached. This first file has no background in it, and thus does not require a superfast PC.

The second one has a background, and might lag on slower PC's.
:)

Please let me know how fast the game is. [preferabbly both versions]
Thanks!
:)

PS: Let me know what your score is. I bet you can't get up to 50,000!

I would think you are god if you can make an apocalyptic themed shoot-em-up in 15 minutes!
:p

@PhobiK
Haha, I've done 20min pong before. There was this contenst which I couldn't attend, but I went to the presentation. EA had given a few games which the organizers were using as prizes. There weren't enough entries for the amount of prizes so I wrote pong durring the presentation, while still paying attention to the presenters.

lol Im not god but I'll make a try, almost done ;)

@pseudobot, I don't see any attachments.
Edit: nevermind, I see it now.

So, here it is :P

Please don't laugh, I did my best :D

Hold on guys!
I'm almost done mine...well...sort of...to a playable point. But just please remember that I've only really had about 2 hours of real work, the rest was just starting something, and then dumping it...

P.

xploder how the hell do you create such realistic graphics T.T

I guess I'll just upload mines with the level 1 done, need to sort through some bugs first so brt. Won't have any sound and will have horrible graphics but who cares.


yeah xploder you just have some clearing problems (the bullets don't get cleared off the screen) but being able to do that in 3 days is amazing...


Please comment. Spent a long time sorting out stupid bugs heh... but its still a very good progress from last night ^^

I'm done with this today, probably will finish it some other day, or maybe I won't finish it at all and will get started on the final product.

lol pretty clever, and how did your pong game do?

pseudobot your game is so hard :( the blobs literally spawn pretty much on me and I can't kill them.
Edit: oh lol you can mOVE? O.o haha me stupid. You was inspired by geometry wars no? The particles generator as well as the gameplay both point towards that. Same with the switching weapons based on multiplier (at least i think its based on multiplier)

14800. I will beat that.
just got 28650. When do we see the different enemies? multiplier 10?



Holy crap i love the jelly beans game! very creative and good art too... but tooo easy no boundaries, and if you just aim straight up you can't lose.

do you know if there are some good places for me to learn some art? It's really annoying having to rely on other people for graphics every single time...

oh and link to my game is in my previous post.
