*sigh* my dumb self is having to drop out of the contest...
The ladyfriend came over today, and I kept procrastinating, until it came down to both of us playing Halo for hours. and now, here it is 1AM, and Ive done almost no coding. so yeah, unless a miracle comes up, I wont be finishing a game, as I have to go to my grandmas birthday party tomorrow.
But on the bright side, I did finish all my art, and I think it looks downright spiffy. So I thought Id show of a screen shot that conveys what my game was going to be, and I could show off my artwork that I did all in like two hours.
bleh, sorry about the craptacular quality image, ill upload a better one if I can get one
I had a really good idea... really addictive as well. I know its really addictive because my cousins bought a gameboy after playing it on mine. lol.
But... i have too much homework... Oh well, I'll make it anyway when i have time.

Im going to be very tight for time today, im rly not sure if i can finish it. Bsicly ive got 20 mins to finish the engine, 20mins to add score and lives, 40mins to add levels, 20mins to add sounds. If i do finish it, it will be very bad and will contain about 3 levels ah well, like i sed, i wouldnt win anyway.
Well it looks like I've missed another 48hr contest due to last minute plans.
Around 9pm Thursday night, a mate of mine who lives 4hours away called up and invited me to his 21st birthday bash. So, instead of a 48hr codefest, I got a 40hr bender and one hell of a hangover. (I had a blast though, well worth it)
I have a good idea for the theme, but I just don't think my brain could do it at the moment.
ive got plenty of time if i dont go and watch arsenal play newcastle at the pub. i waana watch it but if i do im going to have to stay up till early morning to finish the game because i have five a side tonight as well.
are you making a game tonypa or just overlooking whats going on?
hope everyone finishes.
If our body is a clock ticking away and if while we experience all that this world has to offer time has still continued to pass, are we living or just experiencing a slow death?
grrrrrrrr. me gf is still here. not leaving until 5pm gmt. so therefore i will have 12 hrs altogether (5pm - 5am GMT), so hopefully i can get something done. blakfeld... WOW!!! its WAY better than mine!
*bimbo/hippy voice*> I have lost this comp!
PS. I know this competition is supposed to be on our own and everything, but i've been stuck on this one thing for about 4 hrs in total.
I've made it so that a MAXIMUM of 6 packages can be on the screen at one time, but when clicked on, the package/"gift" (my var name) falls. To be able to add more 'gifts' to the screen, i need to be able to rename it. I've tried
(not actual var name cuz it uses eval())
gift1._name = notgift1
but it doesnt work. When testing, i click 'objects' and it just removes the name, so variables inside it appear as:
_root.game..variable
instead of
_root.game.gift1.variable
i've also tried:
_root.game.setProperty("gift1", _name, "notgift1");
and that still doenst work
PLEASE PLEASE can someone help!!
(- even just a little HINT, would be great!!-)
Thnx

This is the most enjoyable thread on here in ages, I can just feel the pain you guys are going through.
To me these comps are what sums up our little community the best.
Anyway good luck guys, and no I'm not entering anything ( Got more than enough of my own stuff on I'm afraid, plus I think it's best to retire undefeated ).

Sorry, but the time difference is confusing me. This should mean that there's several hours left, right?
But on pnflashgames.com it says
"Contest submission closes at 2005-01-23 11:59:59"
(2h left) But that's sever time.. So how much time is left, really? :S
