RoboGun: My first big axe game
« on: October 29, 2011, 11:02:01 pm »
I was going to start with a TD, but I decided to start smaller. I'm going to make my first game, called RoboGun.

I call it RoboGun because basically the player controls a robot gun, a gun that moves by its self.

I got the idea of moving objects that dont normally move on their own from Parser Padwan's game, swords.

I'll finish this game before December 1st and I'll post updates :D

That is probably a good idea to start small but I still hope you make TD sometime

What's a TD? (I'm guessing "top-down" shooter, but I'm not sure.) Good luck with your project, anyway :)

Oh, I see. By the way epic7, right-clicking Google links and selecting "Copy link address" is a terrible idea, thanks to Google's incessant URL masking :(

I am doing a top down shooter. :P

Would there be a way to make a background for the level without covering the enemies and stuff? Grayscale, maybe?

Store your image to either L3 or draw sprites using Pt-On()^r (2nd, angle, 3), then use DispGraph^r.  This displays them in greyscale.
For example:
Code: [Select]
[Pic0]->Pic0  //Uses the OS Pic0 in the program
For(A,0,755)  //756 time loop
{Pic0+A}->{L3+A}   //Stores the info in the Pic to the greyscale buffer
End
DispGraph^r
Repeat getkey(15)
End
try that

End
try that
Actually this would be much more efficient with the Copy command:
Code: [Select]
[Pic0]->Pic0
Copy(A+Pic0,A+L3,755) // Also, put constants at the end of equations for a small optimization
DispGraph^r
Repeat getkey(15)
End
