Ah awesome, would be good for a set duedate, then we all know HOW MUCH pressure we have :D.

Yeah, some pressure would be nice. I haven't worked on my part since I found out it wasn't due until September. Maybe he could just give us a date and then not really need it finished then, it'd at least be something to shoot for.

ok hows this: it wncourages me to get off my butt and work and it encourages you to do so too.

NOVEMBER 15th

4 days before the wii launch, so we can release this in celebration on the 19th

That's pretty awesome, and a good idea, I'm working on my 2nd still.

Well since im pretty much done my first, any coders want to work on a second?

*looks for coder*

the duedate will make me work on mine. :P

Lol, this flashing invunerability is getting teadiously annoying :P.

You'd think getting the character to flash when it's hit would be so simple >_<.

Other than that and other minor adjustments, mine's finished :P.

Again, good choice for due-date :P.

_visible = !_visible

I KNEW IT'D BE SIMPLE >_<.

Thanks a tonne :P!

Wow... i never thought of that. Clever.

Meh, as long as I could get it working, that's all that matters for my game atm (apart from other major adjustements):

Here it be!

Removed the small enemies for being too much of a lost cause.
Flashing works.
Different music.
Working on ideas to add-on.

Comments are appreciated :).

that's ok but the scorpion thing should have some AI instead of being a movieclip. here's a code where he follows you and attacks you when he hits you

in the scorpions actions
assuming the movieclip that the game is in is called game

onClipEvent(enterframe){
if(this._x < _root.game.player._x){
this._x += 5
}
if(this._x > _root.game.player._x){
this._x -= 5
}
if(this._y< _root.game.player._y){
this._y += 5
}
if(this._y > _root.game.player._y){
this._y -= 5
}
if(this.hitTest(_root.game.player){
this.gotoAndPlay("attack)
}
}

you would also have things like damage and stuff

Or, if your invunerability is set to a frame based timer:

_visible = invunVariable % 2;

ok, but it isn't a movieclip (well the animation is), my code just makes it bounce of the edges :P.

thanks anyway (I'll try it out ;)).

The fact that it stops when it reaches you means its easier to kill now, so I should fix that up a bit.

Is there a new deadline now? Man... i had no time to work on anything the past few months, good luck to the rest of you.

Whoa... this thing is dying.. please dont let it die :(

What are you talking about? Everyone is just hard at work on their game.

However I haven't worked on my first game in awhile... at least I finished the sonic game :)

Bumping to see how people are getting on with their games.

My 2nd's doing okay, I haven't touched it in a while, but in this time, I've learnt much more stuff, so I'm gonna see what I can do to improve it now :D!

omfg i forgot about this :O

o_O, but you're still doing it right? We have ages to work on our stuff :)!

I want everyone who finished their game so far to send me the FLA

So far i just have bomtoons-wart

I almost forgot about this but i dont want it to die

Hurry up and finish, i want at least 10 games in the final, preferably more

Glaiel, you'd do better to ask for games after the deadline for the AG haloween contest. That way those of us who want to make stuff for it would have that post-submission glow to boost them in finishing their bosses for this, plus actual time to do so.

Huh? I thought I sent you mine over MSN :o.

Me neither, that's why I brought it back :P.

Which is why I'm continuing with my 2nd, I need to sort out the boss' AI, I prefered it when it bounced around the screen, it's too easy now >_<.

ha i probably lost it. If i sent you a screenshot of my desktop you'd know (but now i have a folder for VGBC)

And BTW the due date is after halloween (it's like november 14 or something... i just want anyone who's finished one to send it)

Yeah I remember the deadline ;), a few days before the release of the Wii (which I'm buying :D!).

So, should I send my game again? Or will be able to find it? xD (Start with your 'My Recieved Files' folder ^_^).

Oh man, well I'm out like I said a while ago. The organization on this collab was kinda 'bleh', no offense Glaiel. It's just that, after I saw like 3 other flashs from Glaiel in the portal, all obviously showing hard work, it kind of got me discouraged on this whole project. Well, good luck to anyone else, and sorry.

I still have to pull myself together to open my ol' Metroid .fla. Bleah, it was going pretty good.

Not to mention i only have 9 days to finish my game for the halloween comp. GRRR.

Im probably going to do a different one :(

i dont think my LOZ one was good

donutmaster, maybe ill make one with you, well talk on msn

We must finish this collab, it is such a good idea and we've already invested a lot of time....don't bail out now!
