Title: Kirby's Crackity Hack
Post by: ikemike on May 19, 2011, 04:39:14 pm
Hey all. This is ikemike, with my first contribution to the Omnimaga developer community— Kirby's Crackity Hack, from "Kirby & the Amazing Mirror", made in Axe! The game was made in 3 days, ~10 hours of work. A video of GBA gameplay is here: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7zFwJSF7LpI (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7zFwJSF7LpI)

KBYCRACK 0.8.8xp is the executable, AXEKIRBY 0.8.8xp is the engine. You won't be able to compile AXEKIRBY, since it needs the sprite data... I'm only giving that to people who help optimize this.

Features I plan on adding:
Difficulty Levels
Title Screen
Optimizations so I can fit this into a regular program, not application

AXE PROGRAMMERS: If you would take the time, can you look through my code and help me with optimization? I'm still new to Axe and don't know many tricks yet.

INSTRUCTIONS: Press 2nd when the bar in the top-left corner fills up. The more full the bar is, the more points you get. The bar will fill 4 times. After this, press 2nd once the two targets align. Max score is 999! See if you can get it.

Wow! Recognition from DJ_O himself! xD

After playing the game for a fair bit, and having friends play it, I was wondering how fun the game actually is, and whether it would be worth continuing in that respect. Do you have any suggestions to make the game more "fun"? I haven't been able to think of anything.

Hehe normally I reply to most projects right away, but I was sidetracked by personal issues, so it took a long while. I was shocked at the graphics, though, and the game seemed fun so far. I hope you can add more stuff. I think it should probably be some sort of Mario party-like game based around Kirby stuff. You could lock some games until the player gets a certain score at the others.

Heh... Those "shocking graphics" took a very significant amount of effort, that's why they're so awesome. I also try and use optical tricks to minimize the amount of animation and art I have to do. Notice there's not actually any animation in the game so far. ^_^

Anyways, great idea. I've thought of making a suite of kirby games, but I never considered a Mario Party style game! It sounds fun. I think I'll try it— maybe I'll be able to apply some of the game design concepts I've dreamt up over these long years of arcade gaming. ...And maybe ask some people for source code that I can stuff Kirby sprites into. xD

You should make randomized cracking, like in the real game. That would be pretty cool. I think the animation looks pretty nailed down, in the real version it's not much different either. If you got all the minigames in, I'm sure that would be an awesome contest entry ^^

If I was you I would include some mini-games from old Kirby games too. Just check Youtube for Kirby Adventure videos, for example.
