Suggestion: Make it so that the same key is used to fly/jump as to confirm, else it can get a bit annoying to have to switch back and forth between 2nd and Enter.

And yet, if I try, and I press ENTER just as I'm dying (as often is done by people who don't time jumps), I won't see my score.

I've actually been trying to work out something with a "falling" animation at the end in order for there to be a delay, but I just can't do it, try as I might. I plan to have Pic2+8 as the picture of the bird (I didn't store Pic3 for optimization), and for the bird not to overwrite to background/pipes (yet, try as I might, it always does so). If anyone can help me, let me know.

Oh, and update tomorrow with updated pipe generation and graphics!

You could do what I did in Super Sonic Ball and add a 0.5 second delay when the Game Over screen appears. That way people won't spam ENTER through the score screen.

Delays = bad. Seriously, when I'm playing a game I like it when it's fast.

Bump.
Tonight, I am releasing a new version (probably the last I'll ever make to develop this project, except for a spin-off I plan to produce) which does a minor optimization, adds a half-second delay upon dying, and includes a commented version of the source code.


I probably won't do more with this game (except a release on ticalc.org), although I am planning at least one other thing to do with this engine. Also, any more optimization/feature tips you have, let me know!

I like how you changed the pipes btw. They look better this way than with just rectangles. Also I don't know how I did it, but I managed to get 11 points

11? You get a bronze medal!

No, seriously, I'm adding medal distribution to the game. It only took 6 new lines of code, and a modification of almost everything else in the loss sequence, just to fit the names. Hope we're happy.

I also changed the bird graphic, and it actually kinda looks like the real Bird! (no facing up and down, though; I can't sprite that to save my life )

One last thing: my comments actually made me understand the game LESS. So, no commented version.

Upload as soon as the upload thing with the new SMF is working!

^this. I think admins forgot to enable uploading or it doesn't work yet. Else, for full games there is always ticalc.org or Cemetech archives.

Throw it in your public dropbox folder and cross link?

I don't have a dropbox.

I hate uploading to other places before omni... 

I hate that my version is now bigger than yours ...I really desperately need optimization!
Runer112, nikitouzz, matrefeytontias, Builderboy, and Assembly~Bandit, pleasepleasepleasepleasepleasepleasepleasepleasepleasePLEASE optimize my code! 

But, in all seriousness, he's right! This is actually my place that I go to upload games before I release them anywhere else. This is the place I go to gauge the public reaction the game would create, see how users would like playing the game, to get suggestions to make it better, and to ask for help implementing something new or optimize it! I really want to test how you'll react to the medal system before I release it anywhere else.

The upload system should be working fine as far as I know. What issue are you having?

For any file I tried to upload (including one that was literally one byte), it would tell me that an error has occurred posting the attachment.


I'll try with a Bard image.


EDIT: Holy cow it works!

I updated the game. Check the original post.

I wonder if the new forum brought back the attachment restrictions built in by default in SMF? Maybe uploads are restricted to just a few types of files. On the site before the upgrade, any file extension was allowed.

And it still is. I just updated.
