Caedes (Carnage): An Axe RPG

[saintrunner]

So after enjoying thydowulays's tutorial, I decided to make some sort of RPG shooter! I already knew how to make tilemaps, but I never actually did much with them. TILL NOW  

My idea is having a game where you can shoot and destroy, just about anything you want Massive carnage! with many monsters and people and such



Here is all I have right now. basically just the movement and direction stuff. I think I'll also change the character sprites, but the one thing I really need is a name!!!

Let me know what you all think Below is a screenie of current progress

Thanks a ton:

so a ARPG.
Good luck

[saintrunner]

Well yes I think it looks good too, for my first one like this (I usually make platformers)

[thydowulays]

Wow, it looks great! I'm glad my tutorial was of assistance to you! I hear you said you will be able to destroy blocks... this routine may help you a bit:

Code: Select All | Copy To Clipboard

1 2 3 4

Lbl ST r3->{r2/8*12+(r1/8)+GDB1} //Change the GDB1 to whatever variable you stored your tilemap in Return

Then, you can do it just like the GT routine from my tutorial, just a little different. If you wanted it to delete the block that is directly above you, you would do this:

Code: Select All | Copy To Clipboard

1 2 3 4

If sub(GT,X,Y-8)=2 //Let's say the block above you has a value of 02 ST(X,Y-8,0) //Set the tile that is 8 pixels above your character to a value of 00, or empty End

You could easily do this to fit your "bullet" routine for your shooter. Just change the If statement

[saintrunner]

Hey thanks And to be honest, I know how to make something like this before I read your tutorial, but I didn't know all the collisions stuff which will come in a lot of help!

[thydowulays]

Oh okay, well I hope that routine still works out for you! And I'm sure that this next game is going to be great!

[saintrunner]

Well I hope it is....but it really needs a name!

[thydowulays]

Hmm, for some reason the first thing that came to my head was "Fantastic Voyager"

[Yeong]

Is the guy a soldier?

[saintrunner]

Hmmm, I like that But I'm usually a fan of smaller names I'm sorry for being picky

[thydowulays]

lol it's alright. If it's a soldier you could do something like Trauma or something, where the soldier is traumatized from a war and wants to go on a rampage

A storyline of some sort could be really useful for coming up with a name.

[Yeong]

or really simple: War

[saintrunner]

lol it's alright. If it's a soldier you could do something like Trauma or something, where the soldier is traumatized from a war and wants to go on a rampage

RAMPAGE!!! I like that! or even Carnage

A storyline of some sort could be really useful for coming up with a name.

And there really isn't much of a story yet, I'm just thinking it would be cool to have a free realm fighting game on calc

I was going to go with Desolate but that is already a TI game so how about Ruin?
