Flip Runner [WIP]

DeadlySeriousMedia

Here's a video of a new gravity runner I'm working on. Just trying to hammer out a bunch of special effects and UI elements. Got a few more hazards to build in along with power ups.

Sorry for the lag.My mac is a wimp.

Come on man. Stop pushing games out there, it makes me feel bad cause I can't push games out as quick as you lol. Awesome idea on this one!

DeadlySeriousMedia

Ha ha! Sorry! Not to fret, this won't be out for a while. I've got another project I'll be starting soon, this will go on hold, or at least become a slow mover. I shant be publishing a new game in the immediate future...I don't think. You should have time to catch up!

Nice game! but i should change the background into an city it something

DeadlySeriousMedia

Thanks @TyGames Yeah, I'm still sketchin' out a bunch of different ideas, but you're right, it does need some sort of BG.

WoodGames

@deadlyseriousmedia i have an city background cartoon i can give it to you? if you want

DeadlySeriousMedia

@TyGames thanks for the offer, but I'm gonna do this one on my own.

WoodGames

DeadlySeriousMedia

Sweet looking game! Great concept!

My other project is still ramping up so I'm still pluggin away at Flip Runner. Here's a death video!

DeadlySeriousMedia

So here's a new video. I've built all the hazards. Now I need the power ups, the difficulty build up, the score keeper, and the UI. Oh yeah, and sound. The music playing is Caravan Palace - Rock it for me. I'm thinking this kind of sound for the game, no vocals though.

I think a moving background would help to create a Movement sensation

So I added a BG. I tried a city and a landscape and clouds, but none seemed to look right. so I settled on arrows.

I also added a shield and boost pick up. The boost drops too often right now but it works great.

I also added 1 finger to jump and 2 fingers to pause.

Awesome job!

As a cool effect, invert the colors on one side

So I have a problem. I was playing this game again while bored and, though I've placed it on hold I intend to resume once my current project is near completion, I noticed that the game's Bg's all kinda skip. They are set to move in X 180 at different divisible gamespeed amounts for a parallax effect. The scene wraps both x and y. The frame rate is 54-56, however the little skipping makes is appear much slower. Any ideas what could be causing this?

It looks very nice, but I've launched a game called "Super Flip Runner" a while ago. You should find a new name .

@alimpo83 - Right! "Super Duper Flip Runner" it is!

I really love the current art!

DeadlySeriousMedia

Just wanted to share the icon! I forgot to share it when I made it last month.

I never thought I'd live to have these words come out of my mouth (or written down) but, I think I'm going to put a hat shop in this game!

Got it u to 60 FPS on the iPod (4th Gen).

Little glitch at the end because I was manually adding boost and died before I input the last boost. Couldn't duplicate on device.

Awesome game!
