SWF8 PLAYER NEEDED!!!!!


Request:
Added shadow, so it fits with the moon


A little game to play around with.
Controls:
Jump/Fly = Shift
Go left = Left arrow
Go right = Right arrow


NOTE:
the game can be lagging if you fly over the scene, from about 1-2000 meters.
This is all about psychics, and a script expiriment, and there is no point to it, no goal to reach, just have fun with this, if you think its fun.

as is though

++ Nice shadow.

- Though maybe you could have the shadow move further away as it shrinks, when the ball rises.

- Also, maybe have the ball rotate as it moves.

+++ I really like the whole look of it, with the tiny trees and the moon... though it'd be maybe nice for the grass to also have parallax scrolling, the way it is just now makes it look as if it's a big ball on a tiny world, with little bonsai trees.

-- I think you should impose a max. limit on how long pressing the jump button will make us rise. As it is, I pressed it until it reached something like 50k, released it, saw it bounce a couple of times, then restarted (as it was just way too high).

++ basic bouncing works well.

Not a bad demo. Not much fun as is though, but it shows real potential.

Stay funky,

Hey thanks for the nice review, they're not used to be good now-a-days. The ball rotates, so i guess that'll be another plus. (Well, it does at my computer)

That was actually pretty cool!

This is a fun little minigame. Yes, it is kinda pointless, BUT it is pretty cool. Good job on the physics, and building more onto that, try adding more features . It is cool, and you could make a lot out of it! It has a lot of potential! Good work.^^

darkhole-dk responds:

Thank you very much! :)

Its ok

Definitely has potential

darkhole-dk responds:

Thank you.

This would be cool... if..

This would be cool, if the physics were good, and maybe you could control more variables like gravity constant etc. But unfortunately the physics suck.

darkhole-dk responds:

Well, thank you. But changing the gravity yourself is sucking.

??

What was the idea of this game??

darkhole-dk responds:

To make a psysics experiment.
