Topic, Game "Path 4 Mouse (old)"

  It didnt lag for me...is it possible for you to have timer up whoing what your score will be? Like the timer at the bottom of JG2?

  I like using right-mouse to launch really fast.

  When you pass on a purple square who make you invisible you can cheat by doing a right click on the screen and you can see where you are

  Your method for checking to see if the mouse touched the sides seems a bit unreliable. It seems like you're just checking for the dots behind the mouse rather than just the mouse itself.

What you really need to do for a game like this is check along a line between the last mouse point and the current mouse point to see if it has collided with any tiles. I have a decent algorithm for this that I could share if you needed it.

  Well, I really want to fix that, so I'm going to keep updating the game.

What about scores?
Does anybody have any comments to make about the scores, because I really want some reassurance about them.

Please can JP upload the example editor again, because I accidentally changed it, and it isn't working for me any more. Can you re-upload it for me, as I would like to make some more levels.

[edit]
Now I think I've fixed the lag...
Please tell me if I'm wrong.

  Maybe a little for me

  Does anybody have a problem with lag?
I'm very concerned about this.

  Nice. The outlines really help to make the game look better though. Now it's positioned right too, so it's definatly really nice now.

The only thing I can think of next is for the editor.

And I have a good idea for a thing to put in it.

  Wow gecko!, good progress!

  very nice! this game is really starting to impress me! how ever i think you should add a "click to start" and a "dead!" since i think its quite difficult to find out how u start....

  Does anybody like the new style?
I've got it working pretty well now.

Scores are implemented, but I don't know if they are functioning properly, so please tell me your experiences so I can decide if they are or not.
A lower score is better in this game, because scores are judged by the time it takes for you to beat a level.

Please tell me if the game is too laggy, because I will try to fix it if it's too bad.

  metaphor of what?????

just kidding

  He doesn't mean it literally, as a metaphor.

  ok that makes a little bit more sense but how does a game have 'emotion'?

  He means a sort of 'feeling' or 'emotion' in the game.

  @sillius what do you mean by "soul"

  Why at JG2 and not at RT?

  great!i am waiting the game!
say at jg2 when is will be able please

  Right. I'll work on that after JP has fixed the collision bug.
This game is coming along beautifully!

  yep that would give the game a bit more "soul" ;D

  Do you think the game would look good if I gave every square an alpha of 50%? (so that every tile is transparent)

  Yay! I've fixed the lag problem!

  The end never pops up for me.

EDIT:when the hitTest for every object is three tiles off to the right

Oh.

  Woah! Easy goes!
I'm going to add loads of new tiles, but you'll have to wait until I'm completely satisfied with the basic engine...

This is hardly the time to add new tiles when the hitTest for every object is three tiles off to the right...

  and smaller :D

  ... and you have to collect all star before be able to finish the level, and a power-up who make the little snake bigger

  I have an idea for this game...
make power-ups like something which sets the mouse-thingy on fire which will enable you to destroy certain blocks and make something like ice on which you wont be able to control the mouse

  this game begins to intrest me
can't wait til it's out ! :D

  Gundu: You're not meant to have a "|" at the end of the last one...

Captain_404: I've not made levels beatable at this point, and the hitTests seem to be off-centre, so the finish doesn't appear correctly... I will try to fix this, but I don't know what's causing this, because it works fine offline...

  So are these able to be won at this point? All I ever see is the green block.
