I don't know why it dosent work on ME so if someone can enlighten me on how to fix this problem it would be appreciated.

Nice so far.

Comments:

I think that the explosions when you destroy a ship seems to be in the wrong place.

There should be some kind of indication that you've been hit.

You can't use that music for obvious reasons.


Otherwise, good, fast, nice. I look forward to seeing more.

Thanks GCEclipse,

Yeah, I just noticed that the explosions are a little off. Ill try to fool around with sprite offset to fix that.

There is an indication visualy, but it goes by to fast to notice. At the Top of the Screen "Damage" appears whenever your plane is hit. Ill try adding sound as well as make "Damage" appear longer.

Ahhh... I like that song...but your right, its gtg.
thx for you feedback.

Does anyone have anything to add?

Nice & smooth and a really good start. I liked the music too - gave it that "Top Gun" feel

@ PneumaticDryll
Right, im trying to figure out how to fix the ME problem

@koolaid2764
I ripped all these images from the internet, so maybe you can seach the web via google, download and then edit the pictures to suit your game.

@Sonic
Thanks, im currently working on another shooter at the moment. It will be complete with levels and for the most part, the same style of gameplay.

Sorry, About that, I recently moved Websites

Hey PneumaticDryll,
I recently tried to contact you about sending me your system info so I can try to isolate the problem with Windows ME. Can you email me barrettm80@cox.net or reply?

-Thx

well good start of your game, you have a very clean control of player 1 and enemies, and a smooth scrolling system.

at current level of development of your demo you need to focus on:

1- offset of explosions
2- bullet must die when collide with enemy

Thanks,
My main focus (and worrries) where on responsive controls and smooth scrolling, looks like it paid off

The other problems can be fixed easily, so thats no issue.

The only other problem that bothers me is that I havent found a person who has windows ME that has been able to play me game. Its really ticking me off-so if someone has ME and it works on your system, it would be a godsend.
