Please test my game and tell me what you think and give suggestions.

Fruit Frenzy

It's not near finnished, I just want to know what you think so far, and what you think of the idea.

Instructions (I didn't put them in the game yet):

Try to collect as many apples as possible, while avioding the sticks, in the later levels another bird will try to steal the apples from you, but he cannot help you.

Red apples-- 10pts
blue apples-- 20pts
green apples-- 30 pts

MOVEMENT-- ARROW KEYS

THANKYOU!

Not too bad an idea, the falling was a little annoying and i reccommend smoothing out the movement.

you could also add some graphical touches, such as rotating the sticks/apples as they fall,or rotating the character depending on speed/direction.

Aside from music, sfx, and AS barriers (and perhaps a barrier on the ground the will subtract a life), I think the game is overall just too easy. I don't like the way how I can get to the next level by just hugging one side of the wall. Additionally, without a ground barrier, I could just drop endlessly, step ten feet away from the computer, and still make it through all the levels. I suggest that you have some sort of bare minimum score requirement that a player should achieve in order to make it to the next level. Also, the "Ready, Start, Go!" which is done in paint looks awfully tacky. I sugget you use a font, that at the very least mimics hand writing. It truely throws people like me, who don't speak English primarily, off. Moreover, the font you used could have better suited the animation. Perhaps a green colorful text to match the colorful animations. If you could make a slight storyline to it, this game could be much more than it is now.

Other than that, I did like the effort placed into the game. I also liked the fact that the bird steadily dropped which added more strategy to what I should catch. I did like this game, though it needs improvement. Though I believe in your work ethic. Keep up the good work.

it's ok, I don't want to be constantly falling while i'm trying to collect apples.
There seems to be no gravity, as gravity would make them fall faster and faster, that's ok but you really should put at least some gravity in.
You should put a spin on the objects.
Either the hittest area of the sticks or of the bird is too big, try using a smaller box placed insice the bird mc or stick mc and using _root.bird.box.
And please don't write your own writing, just type all that you need to.

does level 5 ever end? you should make it end at level 5 and it goes to a cut scene of you killing the bird with the stick gun. Other than it being really boring, i guess its ok.

thanks for all the comments!

Just to let you know, very few of the grafics in the game will be used in the final copy of it, I will add sounds, and I wasn't planing of it, but putting a slight spin on the apples and sticks is a good idea.

For the person who said that you could just fall to the bottom of the screen and beat the level... you have to get a cerain amount of points to get to the next level, and I am planning on making it so that you can't fly of the ends, or fall through the bottom.

Also, I am not going to make the bird fall faster and faster when you let go of the buttons, that would make sense if the bird just stopped flying, but the bird is still flying, but just not putting extra effort into not falling.

thanks for your suggestions!

Oh yeah, I forgot about the handwriting, I'm going to replace that and all the fonts that are in the game now with better fonts.

Any other suggestions? Should I make more levels, or just keep five but make the levels harder?

By the way, if you were wondering why once you lose all three lives you don't die, I did that so that you can get to through the levels and test the whole game more easily.

It was good i like the idea. You could have drawn the apples better. I think i would have been better if you didnt fall while flying forwards. The bird with the gun that shoots sticks was cool. also you never died. i must have lost 50 lives and never died. I got a score of of 5000 and i still wasent past level 5.

I think it is very good. Quite original. Most games are 'How many ppl can u kill' type thing. I'd love to see the finished product, i think it will be awesome.

I like that alot, great idea, but try drawing graphics in flsh, surely you can draw trees, and apples and sticks, maybe not a bird though, i'd keep that.
Apart from that, i don't think levels suit a game like that, it seems more like a survive as long as you can and get a highscore game, maybe a highscore table would be worth doing, if you need one i can help you.

Well the idea has been done a thousand times, but the gameplay itself is quite original. Add some levels, special apples (bonus points) a timer for each level maybe, and fix the bug about not dying and you'll have made something great.

hey thanks for all the great comments!!!
actually, the not dying thing isnt a bug, as i said earlyer, its so you people can try out all my levels without have to try over and over to to get there, but if you want a version without that "bug" here it is:

Fruit Frenzy (you can die in this version) not finnished...

I actually really liked this. The graphics aren't great, and there's no music, and you can't die, but I think you knew all of those. Maybe get an artist to do the birds, sticks, etc? If you added sound and got cool graphics and stuff, I think I'd give this like a 4 or 5.

I lost my three lives, but how come the game wasn't over? Everything else was good, exept the life count. I think you need more effort in this game.

There's a glitch, for me it was after level four, and if you lost all of your lives it wouldn't reset... unless, you never got around to fixing that.
