Don't think so, they're copyrighted characters, and since we're getting paid, you can't make anything that has to do with them, even if you draw them yourself.

How do i upload a file to denvish.net to show my first game? i've seen alot of other people do it but i cant find any links from the main page to upload something...

I think what you do is anything you want affect by the variable, you multiply it by _root.speed; This was the example in this topics first 4 posts:

this._x += someVariable*(_root.speed);

Now on to good news. The amazing Mr. Fulp got rid of the account that had my current username, so now I can finally be Donutmaster :D

Plus, here's an update on two of the games I'm making:

-Fuzzz- & Me (he's still working on the art, I'm still fixing up the code)
Be Toast (Finished! Will be emailing soon :) )

Is it clear what to do in those games, and any comments/suggestions?

I don't really know anything about microphones/camera in flash other than its possible. I have no idea if you'll be able to record your voice, but here's some useful links on microphone stuffs that I found:

Fixed the rotation on the reel to match the mouse better

I think it'd be cool, though not neccasary, if when the left mouse button is up, the weight starts to decend (you know, like irl, gravity would bring it down). Or not, w/e.

Nice game no matter what.

Bullseye!

Blackfang did the art, me did the coding. I gotta fix 2 things (if you shoot the arrow really slow, I gotta make it so you lose, other wise it just looks wrong, and I want the bow to rotate, not just the arrow)

Other than that, its basically done :D

Comments/suggestions?

Are you asking to test your preloader?

There's a function in flash... When you Test Your Movie, you can simulate downloading.

While in flash:
1. Control>TestMovie

While testing movie:
1.View> Download settings (pick one)
2. View> Simulate Download.

Also if you View> Bandwidth Profiler, you can see some more info about your movie (like, how many kb's are loaded and stuff)

*Great game, the code needed to be tweaked but its okay. I lowered the difficulty for easier gameplay. Loved the great actionscript job!

YAY! Anyway, as far as updates go with me... I think I'm gonna have to resend the Portal of Light one to ya jmtb, I found a small glitch in it (nothing that'll ruin teh collab, I didn't even really notice it until I looked at the script).

I'm making a game with -fuzzz- that I'm really enjoying :D I'd post a preview, but idk how -fuzzz- feels about posting unfinished work (I don't wants to get him mad and lose his amazing talents!)

But I also made another game, gotta fix it a lot, but basically, use the mouse to shoot the arrow and hit the target. (Looking for artist, think I found one but idk if its definite yet)

Really Early Version (If you just barely pull the arrow back and let go, you'll see why I'm not happy with the engine yet :'()

I'd kind of like it to be more of a relaxing/exploratory game rather than a high-paced shootemup style.

Maybe you could make it so if you're fairly far down, there's a randomly placed chest or something, and inside is some gold. Or there's some small shipwrecks that have a little cash bonus (or maybe old unused oxygen tanks, and you can pick em up so you can stay down longer or go deeper)

I always liked relaxing or puzzle games. :D

Amazing bomtoons. Love it. As for ideas/story... Maybe the story could be like you're an aspiring underwater photographer, and as you go along your get bigger and bigger jobs and more money for each job done until your final job (Final job = Taking pictures of a Jaws! Or diving down to the titanic and taking pics of that, idk I'm bad with ideas)

For gameplay ideas, have it so there's wildlife underwater and some don't bother you, but if you hit a shark or w/e you die/take damage (or a stingray! z0mg they're deadly if they get ya in the chest)

Can't wait for the full release :D

If you couldn't tell I only posted my crappy ideas because I didnt wanna just post saying "amazing". Of course its amazing, you're bomtoons! :P

Reminds me of that one with the fork (I don't remember who made it, dingo maybe? or was it you! :O)

Anyway, I still like this because for some reason I find salt on a snail funnier than fork into.... uhhh, it was shrimp right?

Nice. How about instead of the gun always being the same _x coordinate as the mouse, make it rotate? (So, it still moves a bit, but instead of being the _x, it rotates to point at the _x. I know if I was shootin cows I'd turn the gun instead of moving over to shoot another one)

Like 'em both. With the stay alive one, make it so you can die by hitting the fork when its already hit the plate (so make it so the fork only kills ya when its going for a stab)

jmtb - have fun with that 8 hour train ride. If page 20 comes along before you're back, and it most likely will at the pace this thread is going, I'll post another updated list (just to make it easier for ya).

Woo! Go me :D I made this list so I knew which idea were taken already (so I wouldn't copy em, and several ideas I had were taken already, so lucky I made this)
I didn't post controls because I prefer to figure them out when I go to play, so deal with it.
I think I got all of the games, but I may have missed some. =/

Ima lol if the list is completely messed up. (Like, link to the wrong person's game, or put the tags for the link on wrong so the list looks wierd)

Please note these aren't the games that are going into the collab. jmtb's list will probably have less, as he'll remove games that he doesn't like or w/e from the list.

Good job anyway, I like the question mark and bg. Though its very hard to fall down that hole you left in the middle (you wanted people to be able to fall down that, right?)

Oh, and since I'm already posting, I might as well ask. I made a list of all the games that are in this collab so far (well, not in it, but have been posted in hopes of being in it). It has everybody's name, games, and links to the games (I was bored and was tired of constantly searching this topic to see if an idea I had was already taken.) Want I should post it?

Lol, I like it. Maybe you could have it so that everytime you paint a different picture?

(Differentiate still is #1 in my book)

Only when you click? Then it would be....

onClipEvent(mouseDown) {
this.nextFrame();
}

But if you want to click and then it constantly plays after the click....

onClipEvent(mouseDown) {
this.play();
}

Make it so you can only harpoon the whale if you hit him from above. If the whale runs into the harpoon, he shouldn't be harpooned, the harpoon should just bounce off him.

Animation for the whale (swimming and being harpooned) would be a nice improvedment.

Overall: I like it :D

I thought Flash MX was Flash 6.... So wouldn't the formats be the same?

Those can expalin creating a wall better than I ever could. (Besides, reading a tutorial teaches you how to make walls in the future. Just giving you the code will probably just fix your current need for the actionscript, and you won't learn it.)
