FlashPunk Start :)

Hey All,
Last thursday(not yesterday the one before) I have finished my midterm exam so I and my graduation project team (Hello World! Team) decided to take thursday and friday off.

And today we are going to continue working on faculty projects so last friday I decided to start coding in FlashPunk so I followed the first tutorial and see a small example made by chevy ray (The one who made FlashPunk library).

I made a simple game based on that tutorial just a rocket moving in space where it is directed with the mouse and move with up arrow and when releasing it stops due to friction also there is some random enemies generated with simple AI just search and follow player if the player exists in his range of sight and try to follow the player
Also the player can fire using left mouse button.

Here is a link for the game, also here is the source code for the game.

Then afterwards I decided to start my first real project in FlashPunk which is :) PaceMaker Flash Version :) here are all questions that you may wondering about.

Why PaceMaker?
Because PaceMaker was the most successful game I had made till now (was featured on IndieGames Weblog and it make the highest number of gameplays in all my games)
Also I choosed it as I dlove to start flash programming with something easy (shooter)

When it will be finished?
I dont know as I am too busy and I work maximum on it just one hour every week maximum so It may take long time.

Why are you going to make Flash Games?
Because I want my games to be more distributable :) so larger variety of people can try it :) Also I want to make gaming is my full time career job so Flash Games will allows me to find sposor so I will get some cash out of that. So I can say I make too dreams come true :) I make my lovely games and at same time Its my job :)

Will PaceMaker be sponsored?
I hope so as I will be extending the gameplay make achievements. Make bosses besides the main scenario. So hoping it find sponsor on FGL :)

How far you have done in it?
Just right now I only finished rebuilding the main menu and credits menu and making the explosions :) take a look :) so as I said its far away from finishing soon :)



About the graphics from screenshots it looks that it will be same vector drawing is that true?
For now time thats will be the case unless if I find an artist helping me or I have spare time to make some art for it :)

About game Music how you will do it?
I think I will contact Heatex (an amazing musician on gamejolt) Hope he accept to make music for my game :)

About Hello World! game Hassan the artist he told me that he is good in platforming only and not in isometic so now I am still looking for artist for the game hope I can find one soon :S

Thats all for now :)

ByeBye

Pace Maker News and Some News

Hi All,


I managed to put Pace Maker on lots of gaming sites:

- YoYoGames
- RoketGames
- 2BeeGames

Beside GameJolt website.

Also I may start in new game couple of days as I had lots of ideas and don't know which idea is rather I do it.

Also I may learn XNA development kit inorder to participate in Microsoft Contest DreamBuildPlay
You may say are you mad or crazy to participate in this competition where lots of powerful guys will be participating. I think that it will be a good experince beside I will be participating with a game with a very strange idea can't reveal anything about it now. I may make a prototype for it using GameMaker or may be not to see the response before I made it using XNA in a better way.

Also learning XNA development kit will enable me to participate in next year Microsoft contest for students (Imagine Cup)

So if anybody of the readers interested I encourage him to participate as he will not have anything to lose if he didn't participate.

Also learning XNA is a good thing which will help you to importing games for XBox if you wanted to go commercial and lots of other stuff.

So Give them a try.

About what I posted for the college work I think I will make another blog with the team whom made the Vinter Antivirus on their website and this Blog will be dedicated for games only I hope so :)

ByeBye

New Game: Pace Maker

Hi All ,

As I said I won't have lots of time to participate. But yesterday I said why don't I give it a try.
I started working on the game till I found only few things remaining and I finish it so I continued today.

Then DaDaDaaaa...... Pace Maker was finished.
Pace Maker is a small shmup game here its story

Story: In 3010 the computer viruses had been evolved till it can travel through air and infect any electrical system and destroy it.

So the electrical companies had developped hardware to destroy these incoming viruses. Everything was good till Kathomee virus is released.

This virus infect pace makers and destroy it using electrical shock bullets causing people to have a cardiogenic shock(heart failure).

so why don't you give it a try: Link

Hoping to win in this competition :)

Still music is remaining in the game and some fixing :)
