I Do Believe I Am Screwed [Hour 6] Holy forget I Finally Finished

[keonesan]

EDIT: Woot, done.

Oh freaking jesus.

As you may know I told my English teacher that I would program a game based off the book as part of the project. Well it's due tomorrow and I'm going balls to the walls trying to wrap this game up.

It's pretty much done already, just need to change a bit, debug, oh and... loving FIX ALL THE GOD DAM GLITCHES

I swear to god I've fallen through the map at least six times so far.

God dammit for me being a stuffty coder.

If you want to help out feel free to link me some calming music or something. I really need to relax a bit.

Stay out of darkness to gain sanity.

You're screwed.

[lordician]

Sanity, hehe....

I found another loving glitch. If you jump at the edge of a platform with another platform above you, you'll teleport upwards which can be easily abused to skip certain parts of the level.

forget this project.
forget this.

This song is relaxing IMO.

Good luck on your project

Begin writing hacky stuff to patch it all up.
Nobody will notice.

what you using for it?

[Pulchritude]

There's a website called Simplynoise, which is the stuff. It's a white noise generator, which is "soothing" and, of course, blocks out other noise. I use it to study, but it'll probably work for this.

I really don't know what would be defined as "hacky" but I am starting to be cheap. For the platform teleport glitch I decided to be a cheap bastard and change the hitbox on the player.

EDIT:

what you using for it?

Project was originally meant to be done with C++ but I'm using Game Maker because I wasn't given enough time.

I guess it's for the best because I'm still learning C++.
It'd probably be a stuff load more buggier if I wrote it in that.

DOUBLE EDIT: Gah, player hit box change was bad idea! It made falling through the map even worse.

But I ran out of tea yesterday. :C

But I have to say that Led Zepplin song Pulchritude linked is very calming.

>Find a game engine

No I'm not going to stoop to that level.

put it back and do a few collision checks, then hack your way around it, check if at edge of platform, then check for platform above player, and write some hacky stuff that either limits the height you can get or removes jumping completely for extra hackyness.

Your advice is worthless because you are an idiot and bought .gif paper.

what book?

[Snaffle J. Bean]

You're making a platformer based on a book?

How the hell were you expecting to manage that?
