Woot.

My movies going pretty good so far. I'm gonna have an awsome fight scene at the end.

If anyone wants to see what I've got so far, just IM me. (my info is in my profile)

Well I've got a fair bit of my movie done now, hopefully I can meet the deadline.

Oh and if anyone cares, I still need that cassandra scream without the background music.

What would happen if a submission was submitted a few hours to a few days late? Would it still be eligible for awards? Or does it have to be submitted on the 30th no if ands or buts?

Update!

FIRST: You can only shoot after pressing 2 (that draws the guns)

A and D for left and right, Control for PICO POWER smile.gif, s to turn pico power off. Touch that donut to fill up the pico power bar, r is reload, use the mouse to shoot and stuff... Control is fly, and space is jump. Touch the yellow donuts to go to the next level, you can die in this version so... have fun with that. If you touch the yellow donut, and get to the next level, its pretty pointless. Use A and D again, and press Space to shoot, and the mouse to shoot a smaller laser.

Update 2!

Pretty pointless at the moment, its gonna be a version of pico's school or something, space is action, arrows to move. I think thats all in that so far.

Feedback is always nice (for example, what to fix, what you like)

Also, I recommend view size 800 for these.

If indeed all that stuff is stolen, that is pretty sad because it was shit as it was. You really need to learn some actionscript for yourself, that was really pathetic. NEVER steal code from anything, if you don't know some code, look at it, test it out, change little numbers to see what it affects, and basically just use trial and error until you do understand it. That way you can use it exactly how you want and make a game you understand and one that doesn't suck.

The only thing I stole from cartoonsmart was the that character model. Everything else in that I drew myself. I will update that guy if I decide to use the isometric game.
The explosion I did take from the ultimite tutorial 2. I thought we were allowed =/ But, I changed it so there's no problem there.

I didn't steal any code (Unless you count the point and click shooting, which somebody gave me. But they said I could use it, I swear)

I like the idea of having a few Pico's School remakes on Pico Day. I like the idea of seeing it interpreted in new ways and being isometric would be interesting...

Pico should move slightly faster, I feel. Also, as it's kinda hard to line up for the lockers, maybe he shouldn't be able to close them again?

How would you handle the shooting sequences?

In any case, it's got a long way to go (obviously) but there is much potential there, imo.

I need help with something:
I'm trying to open a .fla file but everytime I open it a pop-up appears and says "Could not open this scene probably due to low memory.To increase avaibable memory, close all documents".
what bothers me is that I had some important stuff there(for the movie anyway), and what bothers me even more is that it worked just fine yesterday, anyone knows how to fix it?

the only way to fix that is buy to more ram. your compter doesnt have enough to run whatever it is your trying to open.
