After Dark [Mindstorm NXT (Basically a TI 84) ]
« on: January 18, 2012, 10:17:37 pm »
Hi,
This is a game I am making.
It is for the Mindstorms NXT.
It has a monochrome 100x64 screen which is basically the same as the calc because the calc screen is monochrome 96x64.
The game is about a person who is outside and being chased by hungry zombies.
I will add a shop and other stuff later.
The game is in 4-lvl grayscale.
It is not much so far but here is a video.

Oh, and saintrunner made basically all the sprites. Cuz I stink at pixel art. :P
TBO_Yeong made the title screen.

Please give me ideas to improve this game. :)
Oh, and sorry the video is sideways. :P

And yes, the character is mario, because I don't have a good sprite for the character currently. :P


Thanks, and have a nice day,
nxtboy III

 - A 3D collision detection library (axe) RELEASED! (topic)(screenshot)(more recent screenshot)(screenshot of it being used in a tilemapper)
Spoiler For inactive:

At first I was going to yell at you for not putting a screen shot, but since it's not a calculator program, that looks great! :D  You even have sound!

(Btw, you should put [Mind Storm] or whatever device that is in the title to avoid confusion. Or you don't have to ;))

You can build a statue out of either 1'x1' blocks or 12'x12' blocks. The 1'x1' blocks will take a lot longer, but the final product is worth it.

Moved to Computer Projects and Ideas since it's not calc-related. ;)

Looking good tho, the only part that sticks out to me is how the zombies aren't masked.

Oh yeah I can easily make the zombies have a black background instead of white.
Thanks for the comments guys!
What should I add to it?

DJO- How did you convert it to a .gif? Can you tell me the program used?

EDIT: I fixed the white space for the zombie sprite.

Wow, nice! I have to look into this "Mindstorm" thing :D It looks like it could be fun to code! What language did you code that in?


EDIT: Wow, one of my friends has one right next door (we are in the same building)

I coded it in NXC, which is a C-based language for the Mindstorms NXT.
It is fun to code in.
