    Really cool! Looks Very Decent. As I can see you have tried very hard on this project. I however think by the screenshots try to add detail in the platforms. also, make the logo larger. but I think you'll do great! Im currently developing a game. Called 1-Bit Bob. Its my first game too. ill post some screenshots soon.

    Hey Rickkidcool! Thanks for the tips. I am going to keep working on the platforms. Trust me when I say, I am not done. Thanks :D

    Hey @jdlcrater‌,

    What part of reloading levels do you need help with???

    Also, just a note, when tagging someone in a comment, put an @ before their user name then their username so they get a notification that you mentioned them. For example, if you were tagging me you wold put @ KillerPenguinStudios‌

    (NO space between the @ and KillerPenguinStudios‌)

    Keep it up and work hard!

    Thanks @KillerPenguinStudios‌! What I need help with is just reloading levels. I can do reload a reload scene button but my character will only respawn as an explosion(he explodes when dead).

    Not a problem @jdlcrater‌,

    It sounds to me that the big thing you are forgetting to do is when restart game is true to reset attributes to their original state. It's a little hard to help as I do not know how you set your game up but start with that. Hope that helps.

    OH! That makes sense :D thanks @KillerPenguinStudios‌

    Glad I could help @jdlcrater‌. Hope the rest of your stuff goes well!

    Looks cool. Keep working at it.

    Okay, so I've seen other people post their game and when they do it, it is a finished project. I now know that you do this so that if you want to stop a project you can without releasing your game you said you would. Sorry :smile:

  • SLOCM3ZSLOCM3Z Member Posts: 797

    I will keep working on this game but after it I will only announce my game AFTER I'm done with it.
    :smiley:

    Don't be sorry @jdlcrater,

    Actually, a lot of people post their work in progress games up to share with people and get feedback on it. Just change your title when doing so. Make the title of the post with the name of your game followed by WIP.

    So for your post in regards to this game you would make the post title:

    • Flag Battles!: WIP

    Or something along these lines (does not need to be written like that exactly). This will allow us to know the name of your game and that its a work in progress.

    Hope that makes you feel better and keep it up and don't be afraid to ask for peoples opinions and feedback. This will help you in the end and with the end result, just as long as you can take and handle constructive criticism well! ;)

    Keep it up and good luck on completing your game!

    Thanks a lot @KillerPenguinStudios. So "WIP" here are some new screenshots! (The empty spaces are levels that are not unlocked yet)


  • SLOCM3ZSLOCM3Z Member Posts: 797

    Like @Rickkidcool said, "Make the logo bigger." I thought on that and said 'yah'; that would be good. Thanks for the help so far guys!

  • SLOCM3ZSLOCM3Z Member Posts: 797

    Hello again! I finally finished it! Nine months, three days! Great learning experience too. So here is my first game :smiley: HOORAY! http://gsrca.de/132589

    Also, if anybody wants to know how I did something in the game code please ask!

    New update!

    Changes:

    Fixed a lot of bugs.
    Added 'Lefty' control for lefties out there :)
    Made the tutorial a little better by adding the 'Life + 1' item and updating the 'Show control screen'
    Added a 'Show controls' screen
    There is now a help button in the 'Pause' menu that shows controls and allows you to change whether you are right handed or left
    Changed the end battle to be a little harder
    Made sure you can see the GUI in the end in the fight room
    Changed Votcox's life to 1500 instead of 1300 to make it just a little harder

    I would find it easier if "W" = jump and "Space" = Shoot. :)
