The concept is it's hitler and it's mechanical. I wanted to do something that I could add some craz gameplay elements with.
So review the animtion/design.

sure you can, start with not being so fucked up.

U guys suck.

hitTest help Posted February 1st, 2008 in Game Development

I'm working on a game project and am having a bit of trouble with the hitTest factor. I was up all night trying to figure it out, but I couldn't. I want the character to collide with "bounds" and no longer be able to move in the direction that "bounds" is blocking, whether it be up, down, left, or right. The character movement is beat em' up style (like Dad and Me.) Any help would be much obliged.

(my movement code)
onClipEvent (enterFrame) {
if(Key.isDown(65)){
if (moveLeft=true){
this.gotoAndStop(1);
_x -= 15; }
}
if(Key.isDown(68)){
if (moveRight=true){
this.gotoAndStop(2);
_x += 15; }
}
if(Key.isDown(87)){
if (moveUp=true){
_y -= 15; }
}
if(Key.isDown(83)){
if (moveDown=true){
_y += 15; }
}
}
onClipEvent (load) {this.gotoAndStop(1);
}

I need help please. Posted January 20th, 2007 in Game Development

Um... I'm working on a platform game (which is going well, except >)
I thought it would be easy to use the vcam to control the camera following the character.
But the vcam follows the registration point of my character which has to be on the feet of the character so he wont go thru the platform. I need some way to make the vcam be position up about 50 pixels so you can actually tell that you are in fact a ninja.
here is my script...

onClipEvent (enterFrame) {
_y += (_root.char._y-_y)/4;
_x += (_root.char._x-_x)/4;
}

Someone please help.

Never cut and paste from tutorials, you should figure out stuf on ur own, then thoroughly read thru tutorials to learn more...uber noob.

vcam help Posted January 14th, 2007 in Game Development

I'm having trouble attaching the vcam to a flash MC.
I need the vcam to stay centered on my character, so that when he moves (via keypress)
The camera follows him.
Can someone help please...

k, cool. just wondering because they have that stick arena demo game here on NG.

Xml On Ng Posted January 7th, 2007 in Game Development

I now almost completely understand (and can make) multi-user flash projects.
You use xml socketing in the flash AS, then use JAVA in the HTML.

I used to have a website, now i don't, and I was wondering how people do multiuser flash on
NewGrounds. Is there a specific code needed to be put into the XML or do people use something else?

Response to: Fighting Game help. Posted January 7th, 2007 in Game Development

lol. This is a funny post.

1st-
Never copy and paste from tutorials---you will never learn about AS.

2nd-
If you post to ask for help on a game (that is probably going to fail or be blammed) you should ask about individual parts. (like hittests and gotoandplays)

3rd- Dont start with something so hard that you cant figure it out yourself. Start with a quiz or a simple press the button to change the number game.

Response to: Flash mmorpg Posted December 24th, 2006 in Game Development

But if you are going to start on making a multiplayer flash, start with a chatroom and progress from there.

Response to: Flash mmorpg Posted December 24th, 2006 in Game Development

It took X-gen 8 months for this. I am working on getting a team so it may take about a year or two.

You are gonna need no life at all to finish in 2 years

Oh, poo


I need some help please.
I've been working on the cinematic and intro portion of my Zelda-ish fantasy game: Mana.
(I say zelda-ish because it isn't exactly rpg i am going for, more like adventure action.)
Back to the point, I have not even thought about how I wanted to design the game portion of it.
I've already vetoed Platformer, so... Any suggestions?

Also i need a little help on the plot.

So far:

-In the land of Fasia, a world tortured by demons, a demon infested tower known as The Tower of Shade is capturing innocent Fasians and torturing them to the verge of insanity.
On the top floor of the tower, a boy who was struck unconcieous in a raid (and now has amnesia) decides it is time for him to reveal his past. With help from the "Unknown Fellow"
in the jail cell next to him, he begins his escape down the tower.
--GAME STARTS--

please give suggestions!
