Vectroid (game development)

[.:FancyPants:.]

not the MOST AMAZING flash i've ever seen, but definitely not the worst.
if this game is as good as it's looking so far, i have some high expectations and will check frequently for updates. c:

what's this
NETWORKING YOU SAY?

[Conan]

oh boy Internet parties

you should make something that's purely console based and we can all join like an irc or something lol

[Maze24]

looks cool. As long as you keep updating it and actually make progress then this could actually be pretty nice.

Finished basic running, jumping, gravity, air control and friction.

Here's a demo of the old values: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=caBOOZ9jT1w
Here's a demo of the new values: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=euTTwwiWV34

The new values are faster/more controllable/arcade-style/etc.

i contributed the arcade-style movement C:

only the value for gravity, aaa

anyway, holy hell why are there this many player states/sprites

• stand
• jump0
• jump1
• jump2
• run01
• run02
• run11
• run12
• run21
• run22

COME HERE AND TEST THE BASIC PHYSICS
http://lh.rs/9yGpP7d97lYw

Requires Python 2.7 and pyglet 1.1.
Also, I highly recommend installing Python in 32-bit even if you have 64-bit hardware.

IT'S NECESSARY PORT

but like

is there any way to negative scale sprites to make them turned around/flip-flopped?

definitely with pyglet.gl

but I don't see any in the high-level pyglet.sprite.Sprite interface

anyway, did anybody try the physics test

Alright, so I've determined the structure for how the singleplayer side will work.

When you start up the game, it displays some menu stuff. There you can do stuff and other stuff.
When you press the menu entry to play the game, it increments the 'state' value of the game and initializes some loading stuff.
This includes creating a World instance, passing a Level parameter.

This'll be the base structure:
VectroidGame
{
   State
   
   VectroidWindow
   {
      MenuInterface
      {
         PrimaryMenuInterface
         OptionsMenuInterface
         
         .. etc ..
      }
      
      GameInterface
      {
         GameOverlayInterface
         StatisticsInterface
         EscapeMenuInterface
         
         .. etc ..
      }
   }
   
   World
   {
      IndexedContainer (LEVEL)
      {
         Spawn
         MapSprite
         
         .. etc ..
      }
      
      IndexedContainer (TEMPR)
      {
         Player
         SimpleEnemy
         SimpleEnemy
         CrackedPropDebris
         DroppedItem
         
         .. etc ..
      }
   }
}

As with all your projects, good luck but you'll never finish it.
