The physics game collab!!

[Alexman159]

My name is Alexman159 and i'm a game programmer with 3.51 B.A. (phew just made it)
Instructions
Create a game that revolves around physics. (No simple games with just bouncing balls)
These games don't have to have a point and need to fit into the gadgets category. So no need for points,levels, or lives.
Name all objects with "your name here" and then the name of the objects. Go ahead and put sound effects in if you want but i plan on putting some ambient music in the background.

specifications
Default 550*400 pixels screen size
White background ( you can add a layer with a background though)
30 fps is what i plan on but if everyone agrees on a different fps then i'll change it.

Sprites are allowed although I can't tell why anyone would need them in a physics game

Stick figures are allowed
No profanity or swearing. Very mild blood is allowed. Meaning the kind of light blood you might see coming off of a ragdoll.
No v-cams because i want this to all be stationary. You can use scrolling backgrounds though.

Give me a link to the Swf as a preview then give a link to the fla.
I Recomend spamtheweb.com for the swf and filesaver.com for the fla.

Parts
As of now i need a preloader, menu and i'm allowing 9 other parts. ( I have one )
This may change if we get really good entries. I'm not sure how many people can be co-authored but the best parts will be. I'm pretty sure it's 9 so everyone would be co-authored that did a part.
If anyone want's to make a signature then go ahead but i don't really care if there is a sig or not. I can be contacted on the weekends including friday after 3:30. Just post here or send me a pm!

Here's proof of my score

then... it wouldn't be your physics, now would it?

as3 or 2?

[UnknownFury]

Is use of a physics engine allowed? Show some examples of what you can do with physics :P

[Alexman159]

ALmost forgot i'm using flash 8 with AS2

Kingof buttons you have no submissions so no offence if you used some one elses you'd probably be getting it from flash kit which is against the rules to submit to newgrounds. (no games made from public flash sources)

[SK8ninja]

hey, can i make the preloader? also, what exactly do you do in this game?

[Alexman159]

This is an example

Physics engines are fine as long as the game fits into gadgets category and no v-cam.

[Alexman159]

yeah i knew what you meant the first time. I didn't think you were gonna hand me something right off flash kit. but i did think you would take the action script, change the graphics and add different elements with almost no effort from you. If you use some1 elses action script then who are you to submit it to a collab.

[funkycaveman]

looks good but i have to much work atm, if this is still alive in a few months i will probs b in it!

[Alexman159]

i was thinking of using this for the background music. Anyone agree?disagree? Why?

lol, is that a threat?

[OctoFlash]

hey, would this be a good beginning for a collab part? :D
you can drag the stuff around, even the ball....

[Alexman159]

yeah that's pretty good. It needs little more to it but not bad for a begining. Well i'm done for the day so no contacting me till friday. sorry guys.

I'll post a preview when I can :). Atm, my progress is I made a movieclip......and i drew a circle in it......OH and heres progress: I started with this on him

onClipEvent(load) {
grav = 0
}
onClipEvent(enterFrame) {
}

I'm so busy lol

[Alexman159]

alright from now on you can contact me by pm or posting here on monday-thursday at 3:30 when i`ll be on to check my messages. on the weekend i'm available most of the time

[51lver]

IS THIS GOOD ENOUGH? just move the mouse around a bit you'll get the hang of it

[Alexman159]

It's pretty good.. i have made something similar. it just needs more to it, you can only have so much fun spinning a block around

How long ago did you make this?

[Alexman159]

i don't really remember.. a few months ago probably. I've tried alot of ragdolls before i made one succesfully and even then it still glitchs a little when you put it in walls

Only reason I ask is because the source code for yours is identical to this one:

[Cojones893]

I should've looked harder....

[korded]

No offense, but it seems like everything you've submitted is just ripped code mashed together with bad graphics. A physics collab is cool, but the point is kind of defeated when you can't fully write the script yourself. Why don't you change up the collab a bit?

[Alexman159]

you can full write the script yourself... and you are supposed to write it. I"m going to ignore that comment about poor graphics and script incase you want to join and i would have a lower opinion of you.

well yeah that one's not mine thats an example. the one i created was different. I jsut threw that one in because it's not glitched up and it was an example of physics. (some one asked about physics example or something idk)

[Alexman159]

[chunkycheese12]

Page 2!!! And yeah, i'll work on it sometime this week cos i've got no school so...yeeaaaaah...

[mayoarm11]

i don't get it... it's just a compilation of physics engines?

what's the point? at least if you made it a tutorial or smoething... but just physics engines?

[chunkycheese12]

I think its a good idea, basically a big gadget, and this idea is rarely used, so its nice to see a change for once.
