wow thats pretty awsome if u can get it under 1kb

ya so far Iv gotten to the point where if you manage to get past the yellow line it makes it harder by just a little bit and starts a new level so really there's an infinite number of levels, also every 3rd level your speed increases just enough to keep you in the game... if all goes well I should be able to finish it either 2night or tom...

Okay well I've started a new game thats a bit more interesting then my first.

it consists of 3 flam spirits who are trying to pass the yellow line(heaven) before the others. You play as the green Spirit and make him go forward with the left arrow don't let go though because the red line(hell) is pulling you back.

So far I haven't done much but I just wanted to see what you guys think.

AS2 as well :D

}

um whats it about? Just a simple point and click? Im trying to figure out sumthin better if not I may just stick with SPACEBAR SMASH

SPACEBAR SMASHER1k

That's a game? That's just holding space :/ It shouldn't have taken 946 bytes that's for sure :P

well your supposed to tap it but ya I just found it funny that some people would be rapidly hitiing their keyboards to play such a tiny little game, but yours is pretty good for 3kb

when you just finish making a pong clone and think that making a thing-thing like sidescroller next will be easy.

It must not be a movie clip then.. Keep trying what i said

he probably made it a graphic... well in the properties tab click it up and where it says next to or under its name Graphic or Button on a drop down menu select the dropdown menu and select movieclip, you should see the icon change to a blue movie piece meaning it is now a movieclip. That should allow you to add Action Script in it. Hope it helps.

its supposed to be put in the box that you want the people to read then make it disappear hence the onClipEvent part otherwise I would have said _root.onEnterFrame = function(){} it should work... if it doesnt then try tinkering with it seeing as I had no errors when I compiled mine.

P.S. To get into your movieclips AS select the movieclip and then hit F9 that or hit the actions tab. Keep in mind Im talkin in Flash 8's development bg I have no CS3 or 4 knowledge.

maybe so but I'm enjoying the challenge.

SPACEBAR SMASHER1k

wow well want sum advice in the dynamic text box uncheck AutoKern it adds an extra kb worth of space open. Im at 1kb but do we need to add direction ingame or is it okay in the description cause in the snake game I found that it didnt have directions in game.

well I normally dont post help to much as Im a bit of a noob myself but maybe you could add this in the movie clip when you put it onstage

onClipEvent(load){
	//stop the whole movieto allow people to read.
	//(carful of none-streaming sounds)
	_root.stop();
	//then add an if statement to play the whole movie 
	//if space is pressed
	if(Key.isDown(Key.SPACE)){
		_root.play();
	}
}

let me know if this works as my flash seems to be really screwed right now when it comes to testing on my PC.

I found another when you Jump while pressing down left or right let go it will send you faceing the other way I can only guess this is because the variable I put to check to make sure they face the same direction they land is fucked up in the code prolly when you let go of left or right it assumes it facing the other way now for some reason. Any suggestions?

oh no frecken WAY.... man well in the testing version it in no way does it work like this... man I feel stupid >.< sorry but thanks man I appreciate you showing me that. I'll add you to credits

really? did you try going to the right after jumping right and then let go of the right arrow? Cause when I do that the feet seem to move? I sometimes get weird errors in flash and just want to clarify.

also here's the movie clip code for the player in AS2.

$foo="onClipEvent(enterFrame){
checkleftright = 2;//0 being right and 1 being left
checkjump = 1;
if(Key.isDown(Key.RIGHT)){
checkleftright = 0;
this.gotoAndStop('right_going');
this._x += 5;
}
if(Key.isDown(Key.LEFT)){
checkleftright = 1;
this.gotoAndStop('left_going');
this._x -= 5;
}
if(Key.isDown(Key.RIGHT) && jumping == true){
checkleftright = 1;
checkjump = 1;
this.gotoAndStop('jumping_right');
}
if(Key.isDown(Key.LEFT) && jumping == true){
checkleftright = 0;
checkjump = 1;
this.gotoAndStop('jumping_left');
}

}
onClipEvent(keyUp){
if(checkleftright == 0){
this.gotoAndStop('right_stopped');
}
if(checkleftright == 1){
this.gotoAndStop('left_stopped');
}
}
//^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^|

onClipEvent (load) {
//Where the ball start jumping from

onClipEvent (enterFrame) {

Hey guy, just here to ask about a weird glitch I've been getting lately in my beta side scrolling engine, it seems that with the implementation of jumping with my character I have seemed to get a weird glitch where I try to jump and walk in the air(space bar and right arrow down) which when the player hits the ground he stays on the walking frame designated for that landing direction instead of going to the stopped frame.

here's a link to how well it plays(24 fps)

aw dammit can we still use custom preloaders? cause Iv spent so far a good 2 days on mine drawing the sprites and stuff or do you want them all with the main preloader?

hope Castle Crashers is a big hit Tom, and I hope you enjoy yoru vacation.

awsome idea guys I think this will really inspire alot of people(including myself) to step up their game in the flash making buisness gonna dl it right now.

bah well I guess I will post what I just came up with... I had to scrap the other Idea because frankly it sucked. I havent added the moth or anything but this guy is upposed to represent the first flash program so like what should I have him do just for ideas like fight a villan(a shitty Win98 or Apple 1.0 OS) or anything like that just gonna post to show that Im still working.

screeny

ah sorry guys I havent been on, I just duel booted my comp with MCE and Windows Prof so I wiped out everything(lol I backuped up my shit though) and I JUST got the sound on =D
