Eulogy For: The Mist

(Score at Death: 2.50/5.00)

This submission was BLAMMED by our users.

Here is its eulogy, a collection of the kind words written about it while still among the living. They shall live on forever in its place.

04/27/08 – 04/29/08


Submitted by <deleted> with the following comments:

In this version I re-did most of the stuff, made it more night time themed, added fog, added music, made gun gun better/scope more realistic.....

I basically have the game's main part down, now I just need to learn how to make levels and missions....

Aim to shoot, thats it.
just a demo to see what you guys think

Give me ideas and tell me what you like/dont like!

UPDATE: 4/28/08, I fixed the major glitch where if you click on their head and HOLD the mouse down they wont die even though the gun went off, also I got rid of the people going the other way (just because after I fixed that glitch I didnt feel like re c/p'ing all the guys.) AND also I optimized the game by getting rid of some off screen background that lagged the game a tiny bit.

As you said levels and missions are needed. Aside from that it was pretty decent. might want to add different reactions to being shot in different body parts as well.

"room for improvement"

date: April 27, 2008

things you could improve on:
1)the stick people stop coming fairly soon
2)mabey you could add more than regular stick people
3)it would be beter if they came more rapidley over time,ether that or make levels

9/10, 4/5
I think this will go well with an assassin rpg, or some kind of mission-based hitman game.
The gun was good, the muzzle flare didnt go off every time, i dont know if that was on purpose...
Other than that I would like to see body part damage and different deaths maybe?

"Not Bad"

date: April 27, 2008

I like the mouse to gun interface, but I think you should make it so the rifle sight zooms in and out. Not bad for a start.

It's okay but you need more people to shoot.

"its ok"

date: April 27, 2008

now i can understand what you said about it still being in progress and honestly i like games like this but it just seem too much like the holocaust which in my eyes isnt very good... now if you made it with lighter music and more action then you've got yourself a winner keep on working

"Um..."

date: April 27, 2008

You should improve on the head exploding thing, like add more ways to die instead of shooting the (thing) and ending up shooting the head. For a demo it's OK, for the main u should put a storyline and faster-walking sticks & sticks that fight back.

Getting better. :)
Gun +
Music ++
Fog +

Needs a scoring system, I guess. Also, they stopped after a while, so a replay button would help too. :)

"same as before but with sounds :D"

date: April 27, 2008

you still have dead sticks from the top of the firezone covering / hiding characters on the lower part of the firezone. sound fx r spot on, maybe make them fade after death a lil quicker. how about having to reload to add a lil realism, challenge, and frustration(shoot i ran out of ammo) you might wanna think about speeding them up for they are easy as hell to shoot. if you do maybe have less enter the firezone at one time.

Looks good, is this gonna be some horror shooter, cuz those mists and that music sure made me curious O_o
Its a bit weird tho, that when i shoot a stickperson in his chest or leg his head explodes.... but still nice

"pretty nice"

date: April 27, 2008

just not really a game yet, it's just shooting 20 stick figures, and after that they stop coming. also if you shoot them on their chest their heads still explode. if you move too much up or left you see white where the level ends. maybe you could try making a score counter, and some more levels perhaps.

"Awesome"

date: April 27, 2008

You've mastered the idea of a sniping game. On account of it being; practically a test demo, I decided not to blam it.

I'll keep an eye out for the full game, nice work.

"Yeaaaah...."

date: April 27, 2008

I dont see what youre trying to do. A snipe game, ok got cha....buuuuut what is the point of sniping people walking around in fog with a brick wall as the background?

And then all the problems already pointed out (ie you can see the level ending, heads explode on chest shots, etc etc).

You have a long way to go paddowan.

The mist is a Stephen King short story. Not sure why, but that made me want to play this. It's okay... but many flaws.

"Good but..."

date: April 27, 2008

Looks good. Nice start.

NB: the difference between the Click, MouseDown and MouseUp events.
Click is a full down then up on the same target. Down is the button pressed and up is the button released.

In this game I could click and hold on a guy, (the muzzle would flash), move the reticle off the man (still holding click) and then move it back on, release and watch his head explode.

This is a click event that should be a mouse down.

Enough tutorial.

Still looked good. Nice demo. Needs more game.

"Nice! gonna be awesome!"

date: April 27, 2008

Ok... so im gonna give u aids... i mean ideas!:D

So maybe u should add some ammo, when u mistake at shooting maybe get em scared and make em run and harder to shoot em!
That would kick ass... oooh! and maybe u should add also bodygurads that spooted u and try to kill u and u would have to move around to avoid their bullets!

Omfg! i overexcited with this! its gonna be sexy! so sexy!
