I'm possibly the only one to remember this collab xD, we've got like days, I'm curious as to how many people are doing their parts (I won't have time to finish my 2nd).

There isn't much I can say except what BoMToons already said, we've spent too much time for the collab todie now, I say if you're in the collab and have't finished your part, spend the next few days finishing it and the collab may pull through without another delay!

Considering this, sounds good, I might put my other projects on hold.

I'm out. I lost my last computer, along with everything on its HD (I can't be bothered recovering anything). And I don't feel like starting from scratch.

Dude, do you know how long this has been going on for? You have like 4 days to make a good quality game based on a video game boss, I don't like those odds.

@Paranoia: That sucks :(,I doubt hardly anyone will finish their parts, looks like it may end up as mine and BoMToon's as the only finished ones (and GG if he finishes >_<).

heh i'm only a few hours away from finishing my part, i just can't be arsed to do it. Stupid laziness.

When did i say the due date was for? Next weekend?

Well meh i just realized i'm going to be away next weekend, so make the dudate the weekend after that. It gives us all an extra week. Once i finish my gecko's game i can spend some more time finishing up my game

what r u guys talking about?

If you're that close, I suggest you set a contraption up to burn yourself everything you try to get a way from it until finishing it :P.

November 14/15th, 4/5 days before the release of the Wii (in USA).

If you mean the gecko on your site, I'm looking forward to seeing that in a game, it's freaking awesome!

@Shadow18: A collab we started a while ago.

Where did all these beginners suddenly come from anyway!?

Did everyone forget about me? :'(

I finished my Sonic game, but not my Petey v Mario game. I think I gave up on it too, I don't know if Ima finish it. I don't really like how its turning out.

But at least I finished one :D

Yay, that's 3 :P.

Even if GG finishes, we'll only have like 3 games and my "game" >_<.

I wasn't sure I'd be able to finish mine in time, but this extra week saved me (I just sort of forgot about it). How many parts are actually going to be done?

you all must finish what u started. we have an extra week now...no excuses!

Yay!

How many parts are actually going to be done?

Depends how many people are still with us, atm (I think) Donut-Master, BoMToons, me and Glaiel-Gamer are the few who are finishing/finished with our parts.

Hopefully other people will be seeing the thread and continue with their parts.

I made a LOZ one, but i lost the file a while back, and i didnt think it was that good, so im making one with Donutmaster i think

If it's not too late I would like to join.
My ting is Super Mario Bros 3: Boom Boom
What I Got So Far...

Judging from GG's last post I'm gonna say the due date is officially Sunday the 26th by midnight EST.

Hope I'm not overstepping my authority, but we need a concrete deadline so people can decide if they can make it or not.

I asked this awhile ago in this thread, but how do we show the instructions? Right now before my sonic game I just have a few lines of text saying the controls. That all I need?

oh, theres a kickass blue arrow button too :D

And I really doubt Ima finish my first game, I'm not really enjoying working on it anyways. So just put me down for one game :/

To clarify:

That means your .fla files have to be emailed to the following email address by Sunday Nov 26th before midnight EST(ie: 12:00 am of Monday the 27th):

glaielgamesmail@comcast.net

To remind you of the rules here they are again:

FPS: 30
Screen Size: 550x400 (default)
BG color: Default

Make your entire game in a movieclip

Execute the following line of code when you beat the boss:

_root.win();

and _root.lose(); if you die.

NO MENU SCREENS IN YOUR FILES.

Preferred control scheme(s):

If NO Mouse: arrows for movement and "a,s,w,d" for action(s).

If Mouse: "a,w,s,d" for movement mouse move to aim, mouse click to fire.

We decided against space as default with arrows cuz "up and left" at the same time invalidates a "space" press on some keyboards.

Don't put any instructions or menu stuff in your games, they'll be built into the game engine menu itself.

Oh, also, make sure all your code is self-contained, ie: no references to _root except for the win and lose. Use relative programming ie: this._parent._parent etc.

One last thing:

Name all symbols uniquely following this format:

[yourusername]_[symbol name]

Aight, my two are officially done (fixed some bugs and put in the _root.win() and _root.lose() code). I just sent them over to Glaiel. Tell me whatcha think:

http://www.bomtoons.com/wart.html
http://www.bomtoons.com/zeldaII.html

After looking at and playing through mine, I suppose it's okay to use "space" as on of your action keys and ok to put your key instructions in your games, but integrate the instructions into the HUD (like next to the life bars or something) so the game can start right away.

deadline's the 26th? I can make it.

Rawk!

i hope i can, im redoing mine, well..starting from scratch with donutmaster

I don't know if anyone already called this but:
I call Dark Samus from Metroid Prime

No one's doing that one. The only metroid boss is Meta-Ridley being done by Blaze.

Just make sure to finish by the 26th and follow all the coding/design rules.

yay, the collab's alive (again)!

Unfortunately, even with the deadline, I have 2 christmas games that I must help with, but I'm okay as long as my first is in (which I think it is).

Good luck with your parts guys :D!
