Little Flash Game

I'm making a little flash game for you guys. Its called BOULDER DASH.

Basicly you have to avoid the falling boulders for as long as you can. You will rack up points but it gets harder the longer you play. It should be a small file as the game is only small. It uses pixel art as the graphical style.
I have this game finished within one day.

EDIT: Done!

Re: Little Flash Game

Maybe you should use squares instead of boulders or use a shapeflag hittest because you can still die even is the actual boulder doesn't hit you. This game is somewhat similar to one of mine called PSP invaders.

Re: Little Flash Game

My next project is an RPG game.

Re: Little Flash Game

That's fine!! I'm glad to see another developer in the forums. Good luck with your RPG game. I can understand that they can be quite a challenge; especially since you're coding for the PSP

Re: Little Flash Game

When you get back to making your RPG, if you need help making up tiles, backgrounds, characters or monsters, let me know (and an example of the style you're going for). I'll be glad to help, as time allows. smile

Re: Little Flash Game

I think the main concern with an RPG game is loading/saving variables. Size file isn't a cencern because you can link swfs together but you'd need to be able to load/save variables to a .txt file or something so you could keep the same variables between .swfs and save the game. Good luck though.

By the way, I think that frogger will lag a hell of a lot. Just think of all the hitTests you'd have running and all of the onscreen movement. If I were you, I'd pick a different game.

Re: Little Flash Game

The boulder game is cool - only suggesion is that you display the score during the main gameplay? And put a replay button on the finish screen. Well done though smile

As for RPG - surely lag doesn't really matter too much as the game won't rely on reactions / being quick?

Re: Little Flash Game

I will do my darnest to make this work. Obviously it will be divided into parts. If this works I will add more chapters.

Frogger will have less hitTests than Boulder Dash so I think it will work, also I will make the fla open source.

The RPG will use the standard sol format.

Though I want to work on other little projects too at least one little sideline project.

Re: Little Flash Game

ok, have uploaded it to the site, but couldn't get the links in your post above to work, so used the version linked to in your top post. Let me know if this is right...
Also, what does the 'submit' button do in the swf?

Re: Little Flash Game

Nothing but restart the game. I don't have a highscores table I was hoping PFG would supply me with one of some sort.

Updated the file at that location. Now include tallphil's highscore code that may or may not work.

Re: Little Flash Game

1. Frog would be just fine for psp...hitTest isnt the most effective way but for small games it works fine .  Even though your boulder dash game does lag quite a bit sometimes. perhaps a memory leak?
2. Shared Objects dont work for PSP as far as i know.

Re: Little Flash Game

1. It will have 2 hitTests in frogger I hope. The fact is it lags because I made it very cheeply. Theres about 20 onClipEvent s running at once.
2. Jake developed a save thing which I'll use.

Re: Little Flash Game

By the way, did anybody convert that into flash MX? I'm currently devising an RPG battle type system which could use that

Re: Little Flash Game

Heres the codes. Just have to put them on a button. With the correct HTML object as well.

Save:

Code:

fscommand("save",_root.dat); // calls the function "save" which is in the javascript on the html page

Load:

Code:

if ((savedata != null)&&(savedata != "")){ // check for saved data
    loaded.text=savedata;
}else{
    loaded.text="No data was loaded";
}

As for the HTML page. You'll have to download that. Because for security reasons I am not allowed to post it.
