sniper Posted December 19, 2010 Share Posted December 19, 2010 whats up guys! I haven't been on in a while. First of all, happy holidays! Second, I have a new fan game for you for Christmas I was messing around and decided to make a star fox arcade type game. Its not finished yet, but here's a (really crappy) video of it. (don't worry, my recording program is bad. It's not jerky at all in the game) http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=IEK_MBUDNgY Kinda cheesy game, but hopefully when I get a download link up it will provide some entertainment. I'm gonna redo the sprites at some point. I just wanted to get the gameplay up and running before I redid them. *Demo Update 1/19* http://www.4shared.com/file/iYK2JA-H/Star_Fox_Top_Down.html Ok, so here is the link to download a quick demo of SF2D (it is 11.7 MB). Please keep in mind that this is a tech demo ONLY! the sprites and look of the game will most likely be completely revamped, so I just want to know how it plays so far (and if there are any errors so far.) You will have to give it a little while for it to load (one of the explosion effects I'm using needs to be replaced because it is too big) so be patient with the load time for now.

Scott7 Posted December 19, 2010 Share Posted December 19, 2010 Nice, It's nice to finally get some form of an Sf game even if it is 2d. Now if Only those other 2 fangames would come out... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ARWINGCOMMANDER 3987 Posted December 24, 2010 Share Posted December 24, 2010 What a thoughtful Yuletide present you've given us. :friends: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sniper Posted December 24, 2010 Author Share Posted December 24, 2010 Unfortunately, I haven't been able to work on it much in the last couple of days because my extended family just came over for the holidays Hopefully I'll be able to work on it some more soon though (should be able to start up again on sunday or monday) On the bright side, I almost have a working demo to put up for you guys to test! Also, if anybody is any good at making 2d sprites, I need someone to make the sprites for the game (seeing as I absolutely suck at making sprites) The ones I have now are just temporary ones I found on the internet.

ARWINGCOMMANDER 3987 Posted December 24, 2010 Share Posted December 24, 2010 Is there somewhere I can play it?!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Shaper Posted December 24, 2010 Share Posted December 24, 2010 It looks good and interesting but I noticed he got shot once and lost more then half his health. Is this going to be an issue in the harder levels? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sniper Posted December 25, 2010 Author Share Posted December 25, 2010 Is there somewhere I can play it?!!Not yet. I'll hopefully be getting a one level demo up sometime next week.It looks good and interesting but I noticed he got shot once and lost more then half his health. Is this going to be an issue in the harder levels?That was when i got shot by turrets, right? I haven't configured all the damage amounts yet, so it should be fixed for the actual game Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sniper Posted January 16, 2011 Author Share Posted January 16, 2011 Sorry I haven't gotten anything done in a while (school got kind of hectic; what with taking calc 3 and differential equations in the same semester), but I'm gonna get working on it again soon!

Andross Posted January 17, 2011 Share Posted January 17, 2011 And Game Maker / 1945 stikes again!!!Looks good though, I remember way back when I was trying to make a 2D Game Maker version of Starfox, but it wasn't anywhere near as complex as yours... But I changed tack and went for this instead...BTW, If anyone wants the limited source code for this demo, you're free to have it; I doubt I'll ever get it finished. just send me a PM. (You will however need advanced game maker 7 or higher Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Icy Posted January 20, 2011 Share Posted January 20, 2011 Is this going to have a lock-on laser charge? That'd be cool. Bombs? Great idea so far, and I can't download the demo atm, but it looks good. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sniper Posted January 20, 2011 Author Share Posted January 20, 2011 Eventually I hope to put all those in, but for now all there are are brakes and regular lazers haha. Any more suggestions anyone cares to give will be helpful too! so keep em coming! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

sniper Posted January 22, 2011 Author Share Posted January 22, 2011 very nice did you use the isometric demo game as a model for that? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Heather McDonnell Posted January 22, 2011 Share Posted January 22, 2011 Wow! Exactly the kinda game i've missed on the NES! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Andross Posted January 22, 2011 Share Posted January 22, 2011 very nice did you use the isometric demo game as a model for that?No, it's actually a fully 3D environment, it started with one of the light test demos but virtually everything from that is gone, and the rest is made up from scratch.

sniper Posted January 22, 2011 Author Share Posted January 22, 2011 Sweet! actually I would like to have the source for it if you still have it.On another note, here is the finished level selection menu: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Andross Posted January 27, 2011 Share Posted January 27, 2011 lol at the StarFox 2D formation XDIt looks good, particularly those capital ships, but I think you need to have more enemy types, including ones that come in from the side or something, and you also need to have a boss of some sort, though I assume that you've already thought of that XD.I'd like to suggest, though it will be a lot more programming, that some levels are side-scrolling, just something a bit different.Keep it up, there's nothing to stop this being a great game.BTW, yeah I made the sprite, feel free to use it if you wish, and let me know if you'd like any more XD Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
