[Lua] Gravity guy

Moving screenshot (thanks to Jonius7). The actual game is slower...


Hi there !

Sorry if I may seem inactive, but I am in a 'non-motivation' period.
But I'm not dead (even if I only program 2 hours a week).
So my latest project is a Gravity Guy clone. It is quite fast (and really blurry on grayscale nspires)

Some screenies are attached to my post.

Note that I will change the player sprite.
And, by the way, I used linear gravity (like the original game). Should I use more realistic calculations ?

Nice !!

By linear gravity, I'm not sure what you mean ...

If it looks good ingame, it's ... good enough ? :D

Approimating real gravity shouldn't be really difficult...
It could just use more cpu if calculations get called rather often...

Do you have an animated screenshot ? ;)

By linear gravity, I mean that the character doesn't accelerate while falling.
It is more arcade-like, but less realistic.

I'll do an animated screenshot when my collision engine will be finished...

I finished the collision engine, and everything else.
Now I just have to create 50 levels :(
(And I haven't created the random mode)

If you want to try it, there is the current file attached. It contains 8 test levels (which are very short and not funny).
Oh, and I still haven't choosen a better sprite.

if you need help making the levels, we could help

Can't you use the levels from the original game and slightly edit them if neccesary?
Looks nice but a moving screenie would be even better :P

nice.  I like it with linear gravity as the original.  Other wise it's too hard to judge when to jump.

Interesting project, as usual.
It reminds me of a game I liked on TI-68k calculators, many years ago, even if the levels of the final version were too hard for my taste (I kept the beta version): bobti89's "grav", http://j.petitjean.perso.neuf.fr/bobti89/programmes_ti.php .

Adriweb :
I'll upload it when at least 20 levels will be done.

Levak :
I know, the grey square is just here for developpement purposes (collision box)

By the way, I'm now at my grandparent's for christmas, and I didn't bring any of my Nspires. So no more updates during this week...

Looks very nice. You should make the player sprite transparent.
