Caedes (Carnage): An Axe RPG
« on: January 30, 2012, 08:12:44 pm »
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  :devil:

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

:evillaugh:

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:

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]
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]
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 :)

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!

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.

RAMPAGE!!! I like that! or even Carnage

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?
