Post by: DJ Omnimaga on February 26, 2011, 04:11:22 am: Nice, but for some reasons it looks almost like Squidgetx's sprites. Did you ask him permission to use them? It looks cool, though. I like those ball games. :D

Post by: aeTIos on February 26, 2011, 05:04:56 am: Nope, I made them myself. (The start is like SandLand, though, that can cause it too)
I have looked at them, though.

Oh, and one more thing: if you play it oncalc, you see grayscale on the pillars :D

Post by: squidgetx on February 26, 2011, 11:36:01 am: Hm, I just tried it, and it seems that some of the physics are kind of off....I think the problem is that it moves way too fast. You should inflate you coordinates so it's smoother. Sometimes you'll be moving slowly towards a wall, and then suddenly you'll blast off in the other direction.

Also, those tiles (especially the sand tiles) look kinda identical to SandLand's...only the pillars and the platforms have small modifications to them. I kinda would like to have been asked beforehand :P

Post by: aeTIos on February 26, 2011, 03:06:48 pm: I changed the ground tiles, and the platforms/pillars are going to be changed tonight.

Post by: yunhua98 on March 01, 2011, 06:04:59 pm: do you have any backups? I'm sorry to hear... :'(
Title: Re: Boing- Yet another Bouncing game
Post by: DJ Omnimaga on March 02, 2011, 02:24:59 am: Sorry to hear, but you definitively need to backup more often in the future. :/

I hope you don't give up.

Didn't you upload it here when you posted a screenshot? Or can't you edit those?

Post by: aeTIos on March 02, 2011, 10:39:26 am: Nope, they are compiled files. The source is just gone :(
Title: Re: Boing- Yet another Bouncing game
Post by: Stefan Bauwens on March 02, 2011, 10:41:32 am: Oh, I'm really sorry for you. This happened a few times with me while I was busy making a program. I just gave it up then... But you better don't. It looks great.
Title: Re: Boing- Yet another Bouncing game
Post by: aeTIos on March 02, 2011, 10:50:19 am: I was not planning that.

Title: Re: Boing- Yet another Bouncing game
Post by: DJ Omnimaga on March 02, 2011, 03:07:06 pm: Yeah it can be hard to be motivated after this happens. I remember losing all but parts of the title screen of this 79 KB RPG D:

Post by: aeTIos on March 03, 2011, 04:05:10 am: ARGHHHHHHH If that would happen to me, my motivation would be gone for >9000 years...
Title: Re: Boing- Yet another Bouncing game
Post by: DJ Omnimaga on March 03, 2011, 04:18:02 am: Yeah I understand. I stopped coding large games for 3 months after this happened and it took 1 year until I try making another RPG this large.
