Hola! I'm not sure if anyone remembers my first game but I'm back again for a second attempt! This game really doesn't make any sense, but my main goal was to top the first game (Not a hard task). Anyway it's a Beat Em' Up/Platformer about a fox. You can go here for more info on that: Project Info Anyway, here's the game! I'll try to post it on my site later. Download Forum ESC - to Go to menu in game play Enter - to make selection Arrows - Menu D OR Punch Button - Text The tutorial explians the rest. Any Feedback would be great! I'm really hoping that this can lead to some sort of deal breaker. EDIT: Changed the Address SEVERAL times. EDIT: The Final Address [Edited by - AntiGuy on January 6, 2005 7:36:20 PM]

That made no sense whatsoever. It left me clueless on what to do or even start the game, and finally I had to Ctrl-Alt-Del my way out. The graphic of the fox was cute, though.

Could be me or my system, but I think this needs some work.

Its cool that you've found the love for game programming and that you were able to actually finish a game but next time be sure to thoroughly design your game. A game that leaves it's audience alone in the dark isn't a good game at all.

Nice! I love it when narrators talk to the characters. [grin]

Somehow I can't get past the dashing thing, is that the end of the demo?
And I noticed you're using Nintendo music, which is probably copyrighted.

That's nowhere near the end. I guess I did make dashing a little hard though. I made it where you have to hold it a while before you move on to make sure you know what you're doing.

Sorry that link doesn't work either.

I can put it on my web page if you want me to host it for you, seems like your having problems with your locations.

you need to put some sort of quit button in there. i was going through the introduction when the guy stopped talking and wouldnt respond any longer, so i tried alt-tabbing out. anyway, for a second i thought for sure my computer had froze, i almost crapped my pants since i had 7 instances of notepad open filled with notes i have written down over the past few days...

I did. It's the escape key. You can only quit from the menu.

And I think this will work

By the way, has anyone even made it pass the tutorial! You can turn it off although it will make even less sense.

UPDATED: Added another site. Who knew free hosting was such a bother.

Hi Antiguy, I haven't posted on these boards in a long time, but I felt I should because I enjoyed your game so much :D

It really reminded me of old Genesis/Megadrive games, it looks like you put a lot of work into it. Some of the dialogue made me laugh (out loud!), it was really good! I have no idea why previous posters were so confused by everything, I played through it in about 30 mins (and got the 'neat' thing heheh...)

I think it's a really great game (and you should make more graphics for the baddies!) and here are some "issues" I noticed:

You could probably leave out some moves like blocking, rolling, triple dash etc. because I found that I didn't really use them.

I think you should avoid the "blind jumps" on the rooftops, but that's just my opinion - and the bit where the screen turns black is a bit unfair...

Also, the joypad directions seem to be based on the POV hat instead of the main joystick (although I'm sure you probably just made it that way to suit your own joystick better...)

I also noticed some weird graphical glitches in the halls of the last level, but that might just be my pc screwing up...

Anyway, great work, I've been struggling with a contra/metal slug type game for about 2 years (lol) but I don't think I'll ever make something as good as this!

Thanks MetaL! That's the first good thing I've heard in the last two days. [bawling]

Nice job! This game definetly has potential. I noticed the option to turn the tutorial off in the menu options, but it might be nice when the player starts the game to give the option right then and there to run the tutorial or not.

Other than that, I agree w/ the blind jumps comment and the dark room comment. I got to that point and quit playing, because it is annoying to fight someone you can't see, and it's not very visually stimulating to be punching and kicking randomly.

I could only find one bug, and that was in the devil's playground level, it looked like there were some drawing issues. Here's a picture of what I'm talking about:



Keep up the good work! You're definitely on to something!

well i tryed it,but in the options menu when i tryed to reassign punch button, I couldn't , I don't have joystic , and I couldn't abbort the operation.

Would you believe that the so called glitch was there on purpose? I should've stuck with the idea of the ground sinking while you stand on it. Ah well, live and learn. Also to abort the joystick imput just press escape.

PS. Thanks for the input!
