Title: My Nspire Contest Lua Entry : ImprovedSoloPong
Post by: Adriweb on August 15, 2011, 04:54:09 pm
Hey guys, I'm a little late but I think I still have a few hours in front of me ...

So here's agame I started working on yesterday, and it is *far from finished*

It will be eventually a complete BreakOut ("Casse-Brique") arcade-like game, but as far as the game is coded right now, there are any blocks to break, so it's pretty much a "solo pong game", but improved.
There are bonuses, time constraints etc.

Have fun testing this :)


(Yes I know, this might be buggy and all, but it's just a beginning for another full game that will be much better, obviously, so I'm not posting this to pretend to win at all, I have no chance, and this is just actually to show you what I'm working on :))

(That's why I don't want the code to be public right now, it would be useless)


Controls : Arrow keys.
Restart : "R"

Nice job, but ... ummm, you aren't allowed to post copies of the game before the contest ends, I would take that down fast if I were you.

That. Removed it, and thankfully nobody's downloaded it yet.

Just wait another day :)

Yeah, you should wait after 1AM (EDT) (7AM France time) to post it. Make sure you sent it to the contest email address.

Very nice job, Adriweb!
You stole my idea for making a breakout game, but still... :P

Sadly enough, I get an error when trying to run :/
Looks like you forgot an "end" somewhere.

Code: (Lua error) [Select]
356: 'end' expected (to close 'function' at line 353) near 'elseif'

I can confirm this, I get the same error.

Also, you don't have a ReadMe it seems.

Can't reproduce ... ><

Must be because of a different OS ..

I'll see that in a minute...


EDIT : tested and retested on different configurations, and can't reproduce ...
Mayb I uploaded a wronf file, but I can't see how...

Adriweb, you should've checked the file just before you sent it to the email...

I checked it tho.

(just resent the update)

Whoops, sorry Adriweb!
I was very tired when I typed that, so I must have typed Levak's name accidentally :P

I have that same error as well, but IDK if I'm allowed to judge the new version, :-\ I'll have to ask Juju about that.

Well Adriweb, I'm not Juju but I don't know how "legal" it is to submit an entry after the time is over. I have, though, played the game and it looks good, nice job.

Thanks

Btw, the entry was submitted in time. What I did later was submit the update so people with specific versions don't get a weird bug.

I tried the fixed game, but in my opinion its to fast in the beginning.
Today I tried again, and it became acceptable. I really like the physics in the game, and you use OOP very well :)

Good job!

Yep, I really understood all the classes stuff.
So I guess that I'm going to improve the tutorial on Inspired-Lua from what I've learnt to make it even more clear for beginners.

@Levak : Well, now he knows it, he will become more powerful than you >:D
You can't take knowledge away \o/
