Re: An idea :]

At the moment heach horizontal line and verticle line is a seperate movie clip which is slowing it down (i think) I am going to code it to see if i can make it draw the level as one movie clip as i think I may get above 10 fps then.

Re: An idea :]

The above sugestion was a faliure and a huge waste of time. However I came up with a new idea and now I get a good fps on psp (10-11). To see my very simple soloution here.

Nice solution but it'll make the game a lot harder to play once you make the obstacles harder, because you can't see the obstacles on the next screen which might make them hard to dodge. Find a solution for that and maybe make the helicopter go faster and it'll be great.

Re: An idea :]

If you have another look the entire screen does not move the last 11 tiles will be the first 11 on a screen jump. Maybe if i put a ghost layer above those to show they will be the next tiles then it may make it a little easier to see. I am still going to work on the origional as well as I did have 12fps before I started making it in to a proper game so I am sure it is possible.

Re: An idea :]

oh ok, you're right. Is there anyway you can make the helicopter fly faster to make it a little harder?

Re: An idea :]

making the helicopter faster is very easy I just have to change a variable. I will do this and make it so that the level is generated randomly also add levels so that it gets harder probably making the helicopter faster each level and improve the graphics and we will have a new game

Sounds good. Just make the obstacles a little bit harder and you got yourself a nice game :]

Re: An idea :]

I am working on an alpha release for this game. I hope to have it up by tomorrow evening. I have made it so that there is now a delay for when the screen jumps along one as when I was playing it it seemed a little confusing.

Re: An idea :]

I have just been running over some code for this game and I think that the acceleration effect on the helicopter is the main problem when it comes to causing the game to run slowly so I am going to go back to the old style of game and see if I can get >10 fps as i have had tests running at 13fps. I am still looking to have an alpha of some sort out today though.
