http://kaysik.net/shards/Shards_v0.99.zip (3meg)There it is boys and girls, v0.99 (hopefully soon to be known as v1.0).
This version is quite a big step forwards, and appart from the score being reset each level (soon to be fixed of course), I can't really see anything wrong with the game as a whole now. More content would be nice as always but creating it isn't really where my interests lie so it will probably always be too short [wink].
Keys:
Movement = arrows
shoot = left control (can be held down)
next weapon = left alt*
previous weapon = left shift*
quit = esc
*There are only two weapons and the hud doesn't show your ammo or which weapon you have selected, but their there.
I have no idea how this version will run. There are ALOT of new things going on, including heaps of scripts potentially being run each tick. I tried to keep my default set of scripts pretty lean, but if you had a complicated update each tick for every entity I'm sure you could manage to chug it to high hell!
This version also features a very crappy modguide (checkout the modguide dir). It was written in a day, and I started getting lazy towards the end so stuff gets less and less explanation. Should give anyone interested more than enough info though. Can always ask me if you get stuck.
So yeah ... thanks heaps of AS - its very cool! Hope you like what I've done with it!
