My level's coming along quite nicely. I May have to do what Ryan094's done with the arrow keys making you move across the level. And by the way, if i can make two levels, can i make one with a Arctic/Snowy theme with penguins and such?

Oh yeah, i also found some fun happy music for my chocolate themed level.

Also, if you havent got anyone already, can I do the preloader? I think we should only have about 1 or 2 songs in the whole game as they take up about 2-3mb each, and with all the entries it will be WAYYYYYY too big, unless we can stream them from somewhere (not theres>
an idea)

Hmm, Ive got another problem now. I am making a spinner you have to go through, and if I motion tween it inside a movie clip inside a button, it still takes you back to frame 1 even if you are'nt touching the edges, so I tried rotating it using actionscript. I put

onClipEvent (enterFrame) {
this._rotation+=5
}

that SHOULD work, but it dosent.

If you are using hitTest then that's your problem. Because it just detects the box area. So no matter where you hit it, it will go back a frame.
So if your are using hitTest you could change it to
on(rollover)
Note: you can actually put that on a movieclip. If you must use hitTest then do something like this...

if(_root.Cursor.hitTest(_x, _y, true)){

Place that on the wall. That detects if it hits the actual ring. Not the box

Okay, Ive finished my part!
storyline:
somewhere along the middle, walls are made of metal/air conditioning shaft. You have to get the chissel and crack through the wall, then go onto the next screen, go through the fan and then through a tight shaft to the finish.

Thats pretty good. The finish and start button could of looked a bit better and also you can go throught the crumpled wall without destroying it all completely. But other than that it was good!

Sorry, but the preloader I have already done...

It was on Page 4 or 3.

Theres one thing though. Is the cursor going to be a white mouse. I know you said it would but then you said there could be a way that it could be a dot. It can be a dot if you took my idea about the control center which is funny because I'vementioned it about 6 times and gotten no reply. But hey!

Sorry about that.

I was confused about the "Control Center"

And the cusor will be a white mouse pointer, and that's a preferment answer.

Ok great! Now I completely understand! Just make sure the white cursor isnt so big that a lot of it goes all over the walls and your only concentrating on the point.

Now have a great day at school! I'll get back to you with the bios.

Bios

Newgrounds Username: Ryan094
Real Name: Well, what do you think?
Age: 13! Crazy huh.

What you made: I made an ancient rocky theme level. Cool eh? Also, the sky level. That's right. The one that you thought was amazing ;)

As you can see from what I have made I have decided that my next level shall be a sky level, in the clouds and such.

Sorry for the third post in a row.

To let you know, instead of doing the tree theme Im doing the sky one. Its easier and i cant draw squirrels and such so It would juts look utter crap! Plus i have good ideas for the sky one.

Note: Have you made your cursor yet? I would like to make it. I know it's small but hey. One little job less you have to do.

Ehh I'm out...sorry, Ryan, you can have that Electric landfill level idea

Sorry guys

Sorry guys

Aww, sad to hear. Is it because your finding it hard to draw and that.

Nice music. It's nice, but i was thinking rather then something beepy and clubbish, could we go for a bit of a catchy guitar/drum rhythm? Its just a thought.

Oh yeah, my bio

Newgrounds Username: ThoseSwellNachos

What you made: Chocolate Land, cos i love da chocolate.

Heres my bios:

Newgrounds Username: andy70707
Real Name: Andrew or Andy
What I made: The metal level where you have to break through the wall and go through the fan.

I might make a mouse challenge or something aswell. Tell me what you can do, I can probably make it. What are we going to do about the music anyway. I think it would be best to just get everyones parts together, then see how many songs we can fit in but keeping it under 10mb. Theres no way eveyones level can have its own song, unless we stream it, although you have to wait a while for it to load and its kinda hard.

Hey guys, sorry I just started with my level, I was in Paris, so I couldn't work on it

every one im going on holiday next week so my level for the mouse excape collab will take a bit longer

but i am doing as much as i can ,

if only call of duty 4 wasn't sooo good i would have finished it by now

how long do we have until this collab has to be finished?

*Sigh*...
There going to be FIVE different songs the player can choose form in the whole game. There isn't music for EACH LEVEL.

Darn, you beat me too it. Ah well.

On another side, my Sky Level's coming along nicely so far. I noticed that 2 other levels were completed. That's good to hear. It would be good to see them.
It's good to hear it will be released on a whole load of websites. By the way if theres anything other than levels you would like me to do I'd be happy to do it.

Have you made the cursor yet, If you have may you send it to me so I can add it into my level. I know you would do it but in my level you can jump with the spacebar so I'll need to animate the cursor getting bigger. Thanks. If not then lemme do it. :D Pwetty please. lol.

Yeah! I'll do it then.:D I'll send you a preview when I'm done. One question. 2d or 3d. some times 3d looks kinda crap.
Also they should make a collection on Mouse Avoiders! Then my one could go in there :D
