*Currently working on the inventory/status screen.
*Fog/Shroud engine is completely bug-free.
*New weapon: WarHammer, pretty much the same as sword, except it is really needed in the game to get past a certain point.
*All items in the game (12) have been put into a list. (which is good for me working out the inventory/status engine)
*Golden Skeleton now turns into a lump of gold when it dies. :p (worth quite a bit of money at the town shop)
*Decreased the amount of waypoints throughout the cave.
*Waypoint engine is completed.
*Leveling-up screen is completed.

This game is definately going to be my best so far.

Orange Vampire? What the?
Oh well, that kinda spoils the stats of enemies, oh well.

Hmm...
I kinda just noticed that the Orange Vampires are like, the least fitting of all.
I only really put them in because:
A)There was one in the original Undead game - which was practically a mini-boss (and I had decided to change most of the mini-bosses to normal enemies [the possessed Statue was another]).
B) They kinda fit in between normal vampires and their leader (the White Vampire :p).
C) There's very little orange in this game. :p

...and, that I'm no good at ever making any completely serious games.


I'm actually using Mzx quite a bit now. :)

edit: smileys :(

Okay, I went through the game, and tried to note everything that has yet to be finished.

*Title Screen
*Finish off all stores and houses.
*Complete all villager's speech.
*Design simple trading engine.
*Place all enemies.
*Finish waypoint engine.
*Make sure engines are complete.
*Work out XP requirements to next level after placed enemies.
*Place all required robots on every board.
*You can't use your sword or bow in town.
*Only be able to SaveGame in Town.
*Sound. MODs (for the newly added boards) & SAMs.
*Scratchcard prizes.
*Complete Scratchcard engine.
*Inventory link to Scratchcard.
*Finish Leveling-up & choose stat engine.
*All Item values should be noted.
*Some items placed in castle? ScratchCards and StatPotions aren't items worth hanging on to, and taking into the castle. So you should be able to find them in there. Apples should not be found there, as they go rotten. Apples should be found around trees in town. InvisPotions and SuperPotions should be found in civil parts of the cave.
*ShortCut Keys for displaying amounts.
*Gate to Cave should actually open.
*Fix all Stair Cases.
*Explosions to? (space, ash or fire? (different boards have different settings at that, and I forget which one I was intending to go with (Note: Some bosses fireball's explode)))
*How to get Hammer or Armour?
*Place Purple Keys.
*Make sure it's possible to get to the Bosses, & past them.
*Make sure all bosses have the abilities they're supposed to have.
*Complete the Vampire Cells Board.
*Add Bones & Rocks where no detail lies.
*Complete the "Summon Undead" ability for some bosses.
*Comlete the Level "RockRoom".
*Start on the White Vampire Boss.
*Complete Kraicer & his arena thingy.
*Complete the "Runaway" board.
*Complete the Ending Scene.
*Redo the creditz board.

Also, sorry if any of this english sucks or something, I didn't really look over it. :P

[zombieguy]

Don't you just hate it when your .MZX file gets fucked?
:( :( :(
I just lost 3/4 of this game... in the editor, 27 boards (out of 34) have had their X & Y sizes all set to 0... those boards are everything past the town (where all the action takes place).

Unfortunately, I didn't keep a backup of this game at all.

But I guess I should be the smallest bit happy.. as the board "TEST BOARD" had all the programming, enemies and engines on it, it still remains :).


I have no clue what I'm going to do now... that game was so god damn close to completion. :(

[zombieguy]

I just made a really good random dungeon generator.

Yay.


Perhaps I shall use it in one of my games.

It seems everyone's computer is really dodgy. Some Bad Omen Repellent is sooo heavily needed. Or maybe Ripster is cursed...

Oh well, don't let this discourage you ZombieGuy. Just try to remake what you did earlier before it was lost... hopefully you have good memory

EDIT: I declare we start a smiley holocaust. Stupid smilies

EDIT2: What the? I thought I closed the tags. Oh well their fixed now.

Goshi:
This is why I don't like smileys. :P
Unfortunately, I have a horrible memory and I don't think I really want to redo all those levels...
It was a remake of a game. Nothing that spectacular, and I'm probably better off just taking the remaining robotic out of it and sticking it with my random dungeon generator.

[Goshi]

Well lets hope the random generator makes some interesting dungeons then.

[zombieguy]

I recently bought Unreal II, Halo and The Frozen Throne for the PC.
Great games, so gr8 that I doubt I'll have much time for mzx. :P
But until I do, ya'll should stuff this robot into ur game, it maks ur game coolerer
: "a"
set "local" to random 0 through 32767
set "&local&" to "save_robot"
goto "a"

Be back soon. (few months maybe?)

[zombieguy]

Whatever the problem with my comp was, it's now fixed.
I've redownloaded my games and I'm now working on Stones & Roks III.
I'm about 3% done. Yipee.

[zombieguy]

My Harddrive's dead. I just lost what little work I had done on my game after I lost all my games.
This is so bloody annoying, just one piece of bad luck after the other... one game, all games, entire harddrive.
I'm posting on my mother's comp and I'm getting a new Harddrive today - an 80GB. :)
I'm also getting a new computer for my birthday, in a few weeks.
So, like... yayz 'n stuff.

[zombieguy]

I started work on another game. I don't know what it'll be about, but who cares!1!1

:(

I'll think of something.

[Micah]

Thats the best type of game. The kind you start on without knowing what the hell you are going to do. I like it.

[zombieguy]

I'm working on a sequel to my DoZ game... I couldn't think of anything else to make a game about. :(
I'll post more about it after Judging results have been released, so I don't get DQ. :P

[zombieguy]

I did some more stuff on my game today!!11
this game will own u alllll... and then force u into slavery

hurry up judgingers & judge the games

[zombieguy]

Progress is moving along smoothly.

Basically all my games are on that webpage. :)

[zombieguy]

Repetitive gameplay.

My imagination has run out. Where can you buy some more. :(((

I need ideas.

[KKairos]

Have you tried to surprise the player?

-edit- Have you tried to suprise the player with something that they didn't necessarily expect to see at some given point. I have no idea what type of game you're working on, and I suppose I don't find out till whenever DoZ stuff is released. Apologies if it has been, I'm tired and haven't been able to see DMZX stuff since Thursday morning.

Well, I'm not too sure what I should surprise the player with... and it might'n fit with the type of game it is.

The DoZ results haven't been released yet, but I'll be sure to post more about this game when it is.

Oh yeah and, this is my pledge game for those who care.

[zombieguy]

I'm 75% through my pledge game. Which is pretty damn sucky, since I've got like three more months. :(
The game's pretty damn long. I've taken a million shortcuts in editing this game (mainly level design) and which is why I've done so much in so little time.
You'll see what I mean by these "shortcuts" when the game's released. (they aren't really that bad, though :P)

Well, I suggest you finish the game first, and use any time you have afterwards to go back and fix anything you can easily revise. I'd rather see a crappy, complete game than a good, 1-level one.

Okay, this is extreme suck... the levels take 30 seconds to load :(. There's 26 levels in total, 11 need loading.
Though, I think speed 1 is the speed of your computer or something, so the 30 seconds might be less...
I also thought it was more than 26 levels, but I guess not.

Because of the 16 wav limit, I can't have many sounds either.

This game sure is going to suck. :(

[Goshi]

I don't mind the loading times but for Sound, I wouldn't let that bother you too much. Sound only spices up the game or something

[zombieguy]

I've done some more stuff.
I'd say I'm at 80% now, but the last 20% is going to be a little more difficult than the rest, so I guess I should stick it at like 60%. :P

[zombieguy]

Okay, I'm probably at liek 75% again, lolz.


... :(
I think I might quit posting in this journal until the DoZ results are released. I've made 10 posts about this game, none of which really say anything. :P

[ShloobeR]

... 16 wav limit? :( what is that
