Thanks, but it's a bit confusing. Can you explain a bit more?

Game Aiming/Movement Help Posted February 26th, 2008 in Game Development

I'm trying to make a side-scrolling platformer/shooter, and I'm trying to make the aiming/movement mechanism work kinda like the Flash version of Portal; if the cursor is on the left side of the screen, the character faces left, and the same thing with the right. So, if the cursor is on the left side of the screen, and the character moves right, they walk backwards. Also, I want to make it so that the arm with the weapon points right at the cursor's position. How can I do all of this?

The Newgrounds Action Script Thread. It has a crapload of tutorials.

How about you have the main character shove Hitler's head up Al Roker's ass while Hitler shouts "NOOOO!". Then, when he's up there, have him say "I found some Skittles up here!" or something like that. Then cut to credits while "You're the Best Around" from The Karate Kid plays.

How's that?

Can someone give me the scripts bullets(hittest and ammo) and for mouse-aiming, like in Portal and Madness Interactive, but only in the direction the player is facing? It would help me out alot. :)

Help With Scripts Posted February 18th, 2008 in Game Development

I'm making a side-scrolling shooter game in Flash MX 2004, and I don't know any of the scripts except for basic movement(left and right). So I need these scripts:
*Mouse-aiming (like in Portal and Madness Interactive, but only in the direction the player is facing)
*Enemy generation and AI
*Health
*Ammo
*Scrolling through weapons with up/down arrow keys
*Ground and walls
*Jumping
*Side scrolling depending on how far to the side the player is
*And more

Can someone give me a website or two where I can find these scripts and tutorials for them? It would help me out alot.

Thanks,
Tony
