it doesn't get any slower than that, unfortunately

both kinda look like a fun little minigame that would be on the side of the main game, good job

Both?  Which two?

[PurpleMetro]

me and my friend are having mini-competition

i love that thrill you get when you find out how irritating your own game is <3

[Flamecannon]

kings and purples
i haven't tried yours out yet sadly although i was there for the minecart avatar hype
didn't someone have like all of them in a line i thought that was cute

[PurpleMetro]

um kingdaro



i appear to be jumping way too high..

[Kingdaro]

That's probably because of lag.

[Yosher]

That's probably because of lag.

Are you sure? I have it too and I have no lag whatsoever in this game.

[PurpleMetro]

aHA

i KNEW IT

it is because kingdaro did not sync the movements with DELTA-TIME

and to think HE was the one who TOLD me to do this

[Plastiware]

With persistence and focus, I was able to surpass my personal high score by a significant margin.



Still not high enough to trigger the 1000+ points message, though.  Some day, maybe.

[Zay]

wow

my highscore in madcap minecart is like 11

the obstacles are so confusing

I am syncing the values with delta time. My theory was that the lag was causing the acceleration values to be incremented by a lot more than they should, then subsequently incrementing the velocity by that much. I'll just have to check and see.

EDIT: Yeah, I changed a bunch of physics around and even ran a "lag machine" and I can't reproduce the bug. Technically, you're supposed to be able to jump higher by holding the jump than just tapping it, but PurpleMetro's screenshot shows a higher jump height than what should be possible.

so you're telling me you cannot beat your own game.

[Kingdaro]

That's kind of a stupid thing to say. I'm sure the creator of Flappy Bird wasn't the best at his game.

[Plastiware]

Technically it isn't beatable.  It's a high score game.  Getting 1000 or more points just gives you a special message.
