But still, thanks

He just gave you some as2 code

onEnterFrame = function () {
if (Key.isDown(80)) {
enemyHp._visible = true;
}
if (!Key.isDown(80)) {
enemyHp._visible = false;
}
};

stick that on the frame

Got any examples of stuff you've done before?

That would be some massive project, you sure you're willing to do that?

I'd reccomend doing something a LOT more basic, hate to answer your question with 'dont do it'

but don't do it, unless you're experience already with doing big games and stuff..

yeah ;\

To your shakey enemy question..what's basically happening is (i'm guessing how the code went ive forgot it now)

hes reaching a close _y value to his 'target' and then it going over it. he's went underneath the target's _y value for example. so the code tells him to go up. and now he's over it. It keeps looking between these 2 stages, never quite getting the exact position, hence causing your 'shakey' effect. It's how you've coded it, it would be better to find an alternative method.

To your 'only playing the first frame' issue, the problem is this:

else if (_root.hero._x<_x) {
_x -= 1;
gotoAndPlay(2);

so when you DO punch the dude, he's going to his death frame fair enough. next time the code gets replayed, i.e. one frame later, flash sees this code and is going back to frame 2 again.

so what you're looking for is something like

else if (_root.hero._x<_x) {
if (!dead) {
_x-=1
gotoAndPlay(2)
}
}

then create a 'dead' variable

dead=false

when somewhat punches somewhat B, dead =true

that's it.

Just noticed a quick mistake, small typo. I meant

When I made the game "Quickling" for him he had me sign a contract and never mentioned I wouldn't get credit for the game. When the subject came up, he refused to allow my name in the game, even though I told him it was more important than any bonus he had to offer.

Later the whole thing blew up and he agreed to collab me on Newgrounds. However, when I decided to try out Mochiads to explore other options with my puzzle game "Blue," he accused me of stabbing him in the back and submitted the game to Newgrounds without giving me credit. So I literally have no proof the game is mine. He said he would write a signed recommendation for me, too, but he never did, and I doubt he ever will now, especially because I would like to work with ArmorGames and he absolutely hates them with a passion.

I don't mean to whine, I'm just posting this as a warning. NEVER sell your rights for a game. It isn't worth it, because you can keep your rights and probably get paid the same somewhere else.

Personally I wouldn't recommend working with Mo because he requires way too much runaround work and likes to put branding on the screen during game-play, which is really ugly and is likely to turn a lot of people away, in my opinion. The reason I decided to go on my own with Blue was because 4 weeks after the game was done, Mo still had "suggestions" on things to add and refused to publish it.

He will only publish games on Fridays, and if the next three Fridays are already claimed, it'll be a whole month before you see money or get to publish your game. He also gets to dictate where and when you submit games, even though he'll tell you that you keep your rights and can post it anywhere. Finally, he won't let you implement the Kongregate API so you can get a little extra ad revenue for your game.

If you ask me, that's pretty restrictive.

You have to be careful what you sign or agree to. Also, don't let a sponsor be pushy, because it's likely they want something more than they're paying for.

I disagree, and would say that's untrue. You get a choice to do have whatever you want done to your game - your games can either be sponsored, or have the game fully bought out for a higher price if you wish. No-one gets forced to do anything, and you DO keep your rights. Branding is a very simple process (takes me around 5 minutes). And if you ask me in my opinion, Mo is one of the easiest sponsors to work with. And, keep in mind, I've worked with ArmorGames, CrazyMonkeyGames, RustyGames, GalactiGames, and a few more. Payment is a quick process, and can I quickly add. If the game you have is done, but 'wouldn't get released for another month', you would get paid as soon as you ask. If Mo has the final swf which is pending swf, just ask for the money, no problem.

About the Kongregate API - If you were to intergrate that API into any sponsored game, then you're looking for non exclusive sponsorship. Plenty of sites out there willing to do this.
Anyway, my note to readers uncertain about Mofunzone and whether they can be trusted, I'm not forcing you to have my opinion on this, but I'm saying its a perfectly great company to work with.

A question for Kajenx - you say you wouldn't reccomend working with Mo, so who would you reccomend working with? I can't see any sponsored flash games on your account!

I've just released Rocket Car 2 which shall be coming to Newgrounds shortly, and may I add it was a damn simple process!

I've been with many sponsors, but most have been reviewed already so here's another one:

Mofunzone.com +++++

Game sponsored was Rocket Car

I've been with many sponsors before, and looked around the bigger brands for sponsorship with this game. Mofunzone offered the highest price with the same terms as anyone else, in one case the offer I was presented exceeded 5 times another sponsors' offer. Sponsorship was exclusive like it is with ArmorGames and CrazyMonkey, I kept my credits and the rights to the game e.t.c. He's also pretty much always available to talk to, and I got my money at the same time the game hit Newgrounds.

Seriousness +++++
It's always good to have a fun conversation, but when you need it, Mo can be as serious as you wish, so he earns my 5 here

Money +++++
My offer for Rocket Car beat everyone hands down, the second highest offer was beaten by 2.5 times! Very high pay and pays with paypal and other methods if you wish

Efficency +++++
This is what makes Mofunzone stand out. Probably one of the most efficent sponsors I have ever dealt with, as previously said almost always on chat applications to talk to if needed. Money was delivered quickly, no messing about...so yeah, full marks here too!

Social +++++
Definitley the most social sponsor I've dealt with. CrazyMonkey comes very close, but Mo is almost always up for a chat, whether it's about flash related business or just anything cool to talk about. Most sponsors try and keep a professional image, but then you don't get to 'know' the person. All 5's here too

So overall, if you have a game you want to sponsor definitley check out Mofunzone - it's gonna be worth your time. I was so happy with my last game being sponsored by him that I'm having Rocket Car 2 sponsored by him aswell.

His site is www.mofunzone.com and his email is mo At mofunzone.com if you wish to contact him.

I'm not doing this review for him or anything, just informing anyone who is interested in sponsorship. I'm not the guy to give out full marks so 5's all around is definitley worth your time.

Everyone on Newgrounds is too harsh...

I doubt anyone will code the game for you sorry, mainly because your graphics aren't up to the standard of the coder you are requiring. And an extremely advanced coder wouldn't be needed for this, an average one should manage it without too many problems. Try getting your graphics up to standard and trying again :)

Relativley simple, stick that on the movieclip

onClipEvent (enterFrame) {
percent = Math.round(_root.getBytesLoaded()/_root.getBy tesTotal()*100);
this.gotoAndStop(percent);
}

Prove with my what?
Also, in addition to your comment, this isn't a sponsored game. Check my Newgrounds account, you'll see I'm pretty legitimate.

Don't you love it when people go off topic?
Right, I'll explain in more detail. There are several candidates for this job, in affect and I'm one. The people who contacted me want to see the best Ren and Stimpy style animation, which needs to be 30-60 seconds long. The best one effectively gets the job. You'll get 500 USD for this 'trial'. If you get the actual job, you'll be doing a game with me, which you'll get paid for. Any more questions?

Oops I so badly forgot. You'll get paid. Considering the scale of the company, I'd assume a lot.

Hey Newgrounds,

I'll basically keep the message nice and short. I need an animator (a damn good one actually) to do an animation based around Ren and Stimpy for Nickelodeon. If this works out well, you'll be doing a game too. Contact me for further details please.

Calm down...we should all be celebrating my daily feature!
Whats this your moaning about though? Someone explain :(

Fair enough, but adding more detail woulda slown it down even more. Saying you didn't like it is alright by me, but you getting a 9 for graphics, whilst I get a 5.5 was it?, makes it seem biased. Maybe you're just a harsh reviewer :D
Review Santa In Hell ^_^

*Cough*, some of these reviews are seriously biased. That needs to be sorted. Take a look at territory war, http://flashgn.com/review/55

Given a 9 for graphics, and I can do better than that. The part is that I'm a scripter, not an artist.

Lets take a look at something I've made...

http://flashgn.com/review/39
6.5 for graphics? Bleh.

Funnily enough the guy who reviews my game is the guy who made territory war. How can you give me a 6.5 when I'd give you a 4, and yet you get a 9?

If you're reading this, then TALK damnit.

Cough, I know this is like 100% inappropiate, but this is the only forum he checks ^_^

Anyone else know him?

Right, questions.

Is Eyal OK?
Who owns penalty shootout junkies?
Who owns anything else we made for you, but never got paid for?

I am so badly not bumping this up.

What's up kids.

OMG Teh corkysurprise (check profile :D) says vote 10.

Seriously, check it out, it's a damn nice game. I voted 10.

lemme be in it!

BigArmyBug hates me.

Yes..lots and lots of tea too

It must me broken, I'm only worth $9 or so.
Who wants to buy it?

I really think it should be simplified, but have games and movies have different categories. A game isn't bound to have much humour, and a Movie isn't bound to have much interactivity. Maybe having different categories for the type of submission will work.. ^_^

Muse - Super Massive Black Hole

Any comments? No...great :D

Go for it. Eagle- eye view.

Hi Newgrounds,

We need an artist for an upcoming game, entitled O.D.I.N. The style we’re looking for is realistic / serious. Before I go any further, here is a link to some previous work; to give you an idea of what kind of standard we work at.

http://www.newground..m/portal/view/327510

http://www.newground..m/portal/view/337112

http://www.newground..m/portal/view/310771

I am the ActionScripter, and Ozone is the project director and came up with the original concept.

Here’s the plot:

In the year 2042 after a Middle East dispute with china over oil, negotiations ground to a halt. Shortly afterwards, America stopped selling oil to china. Desperate for oil, china mobilised their huge military force and took several hundred American oil wells.
America did not want a war with china, but saw no other option to regain its supply of the precious "Black Gold".
So, in 2044, America attacked china with all of its forces, intending to wipe it out with one fell swoop. But America vastly underestimated Chinas military force, and the attack was a massive failure, resulting in over 1 million US servicemen being killed, and only 100,000 Chinese military Deaths. China retaliated by launching a massive attack by landing forces in South America and Canada, and pressing up through Mexico and down through Montana.

You play as an experimental weapon launched by the USA in a last ditch attempt to find a weakness in the Chinese War machine. They launched a satellite called O.D.I.N, which stands for Orbital Defence Initiative.
You have been programmed to help protect and hold a key city called New Dallas, a major industrial location.
Armed with a particle accelerator cannon, you must help defend important locations from being compromised.

We’ll probably get it sponsored, where you will get around 40%, I will get around 40%, and the remainder goes to Ozone. I’m not saying ‘around’ to trick you into getting less money than me, we’ll get even amounts. It’s only because it hasn’t been fully discussed yet.

Any questions can be emailed to CorkySurprise @ aol.com

Other Contact Detail is as follows:

AIM : CorkySurprise
MSN: CorkySurprise @ Hotmail.co.uk

You can also PM me if you like; if you are a Newgrounds Member.

We’ll choose the artist on the basis of best-work-wins.

Thanks for your time.

Mike
