Star Wars /Space Invaders Flash Game
Hi guys.
I've been working on this for the last couple of months in between work and family goings on.
It started off as a port of my pc game, but it lagged really bad on the PSP. So I decided that I would do an old style LCD looking game. It is still a little bit laggy, but it is very playable.
Here's the link if you want to check it out online:
Star Wars - Coruscant Attack
or you can download the SWF file here:
Star Wars - Coruscant Attack (SWF File)
Have fun!
edit: It seems I forgot to add the code for a bonus life at 2000 so I've now re-uploaded the revised game.
------------------------------
edit: 27 Feb - I also forgot to add the MotherShip that goes across the screen at the top, so now I've added that too. Apologies if you have already downloaded the game.

Re: Star Wars /Space Invaders Flash Game
Thanks tallphil. Sorry for the late reply, I posted this topic just before I went to work.
Yes, it's fully tested by me and my son. He's got an old PSP with 3.52 M33-4 and I've got a new up to date Slim. It's works fully on both of these, never got the Out of Memory error.
In fact, if you've got a custom firmware, change your CPU speed to 333 and it runs smooth.

Re: Star Wars /Space Invaders Flash Game
Ahh, you're the author of the calculator game too...
As for your question about highscores that you mentioned in that topic, the way we sort out the highscores is by getting flash to talk to PHP scripts on our server, and basically sort out the whole highscore system in our database. You might be able to do a local version by mucking around with text files, but not sure how easy it would be to do (flash can only really load files, so the PHP works because it executes when the script is loaded with the correct variables, but might be harder in a local environment)
I'll stick the star wars game up now...

Re: Star Wars /Space Invaders Flash Game
Thanks for that. Yeah, I don't know much of anything about PHP scripts, maybe someday I'll have to look into that sort of thing. Better get some sleep, I'll check back later this morning.

Re: Star Wars /Space Invaders Flash Game
PHP is awesome. Can't say that it's a lot like BASIC (that I also grew up on, but on the old BBC) but if you can code Perl it's essentially identical. Also, if you want to whip out a version of the calculator game with a background that isn't copyrighted in any way, i'll be happy to stick that up on the site as well...?

Re: Star Wars /Space Invaders Flash Game
That'd be OK macaw.
tallphil, I could do a version of calculator game without copyrighted backgrounds if you like, but isn't the Star Wars game using copyrighted material as well? Not that I want you to take it down or anything, you can do whatever you like, I'm just sayin.
Now, if you do want me to give you a version of the calculator game with altered backgrounds, do you want me to give you the sideways version (for PSP) for use on the site? Or the PC version which is up the right way to play on your site?

Re: Star Wars /Space Invaders Flash Game
hmm, good point with the starwars. Ah well, i'm sure it'll be fine. As for the calculator game, sideways would be good - i'll put a link in the description to your page with the PC version? If requested I could always put both up i guess...

Re: Star Wars /Space Invaders Flash Game
Hi tallphil (and anyone else interested).
I've uploaded a copy of the MG-880 calculator game to my website with a modified background. Here's the link:
Digi Invaders - Casio MG-880
and here's the link to the page which has the Up-right PC version:
Digi Invaders - PC version
OK, now you can put the game on your site if you still want too. Sorry to take so long.

Re: Star Wars /Space Invaders Flash Game
Excellent, cheers! I've put it up here - let me know if you want me to change the description at all.
I was thinking that maybe i could put in a similar javascript popup in the text to load the upright PC version? Is that ok, or would you rather i stick with the straight link to your site as it is currently?
Thanks again for letting us host your game!

Re: Star Wars /Space Invaders Flash Game
Hey tallphil.
Yeah, that would be a good idea to have it pop-up in a small window if you like. That description should be fine.

Re: Star Wars /Space Invaders Flash Game
Cool, done...
As a side note - you know that you can pass variables to functions in javascript, so instead of having 26 different popup js functions, you can have one which the link passes variables to?
This is what i just wrote for the PSPFlashGaming site:
Code:
function popUp(URL,size_x,size_y) { open(URL,'NewWindow','top=0,left=0,width='+size_x+',height='+size_y+',status=no,resizable=no,scrollbars=no'); }
Code:
<a href="javascript:popUp('http://www.tmbsoft.com/games/mg880pc.html','302','510');">Click here for the upright PC version...</a>
Apologies if i'm telling you something you already know here

Always good Popup blockers usually only block automatic popups that try to load when you load the page - if you click a link to launch a popup they usually let that by...

Re: Star Wars /Space Invaders Flash Game
I've made an update to the game. I apologise if you've already downloaded it. You can download it again if you just jump up to my first post here.

Re: Star Wars /Space Invaders Flash Game
This game is definately one of the best flash games made for PSP. Thanks for making it! Can I use it in ChickenSelect? (my portal)

Re: Star Wars /Space Invaders Flash Game
Hi Dezerith. Thanks, I'm glad you like it. It'd be OK if you want to put it in your portal.
