Reviews for "spaceship game tutorial"
trekopep responds:
Excellent. Glad to help. :)
!!!!!!!!!
Great tutorial for a beginner, though you could of used variables:
Put this in a frame:
var speed:Number = 5
That way you can write "speed" instead of 5 in your scripts, and you can use speed*3 instead of manually having to change each number(in case the speed is too fast, or you can change the speed(on a bonus round or sumat)by on the bonus round's frame putting:
speed=100
Though 100 is alot.
trekopep responds:
Yup. Since I made this tutorial, I've improved in actionscript a lot. I look back on this as something that WORKS, but doesn't work extremely WELL. Variables have become one of my best friends in coding. However, this is, as you said, a beginner-oriented tutorial, so I guess it's okay.
Thanks for the review!
THANKS SSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSOOOOOO MUCH!
Everthing is so clear, and your humor makes this not boring, 10\10, 5\5
My next flash project is a space ship shooter, but I didn't really know how to make one, and you showed me how in a great way!
Thanks a ton :)
trekopep responds:
Ha, no problem! I'm glad I could help!
I lIke It!1
I really like your tutorial!! it's so clear and easy to understand!^_^
(NOTE: there is a hidden button onthe lower left adn right)
trekopep responds:
Yeah, I mentioned that in the beginning of the tutorial, I think. Anyway, glad you liked it, and thanks for the review!
Good, but....
Okay, this tutorial was good, and it worked for the most part. Actually, this was probably the best flash tutorial I've ever used (that worked). However, I noticed that on your game the flying animation continues while the "fish" is shooting, and can still be knocked back. How did you do this? Whenever my spaceship is shooting the flying animation stops and it can't be knocked back. Also, mine can shoot over and over, while yours has a pause before it can shoot again. Basically, all you have to do on mine is hold space and you're invincible. I made a newgrounds account just so I could get help on this tutorial, so please respond back soon!
Thanks in advance!
P.S. You forgot to put an underscore before _root.fish.gotoandStop(1) and others. That kept me very frustrated for a few days. You might want to fix that ;)
trekopep responds:
Oops. Sorry. Thanks for the review, and I'm glad you liked it! I'll respond to your question in a PM, rather than cluttering review space. :P
