I'm working on a game kinda like Diamond Mine in DBPro.
I should have screenshots later today/tomorrow.
Concept:
There are 6 colored buttons/coins/gems whatever I decide to call 'em on an 8x8 board.
Colors are Red, Yellow, Green, Blue, Purple and Orange.
You can move one space Up, Down, Left or Right from the selected gem.
You can swap gems colored Orange,Purple or Green with any other gem.
You can mix Red with blue or yellow, Blue with Red or yellow and Yellow with red or blue to make a new color.
Goal is to create combos of 3 or more gems in a row vertically or horizontally. No diagonal combos.
Once combos are created, thos gems vanish and the rest fall down.
New gems come from off the top of the screen to keep the board full.
Things left to do:
1. Allow only valid moves that make a combo after the move.
2. Combine colors when moved as mentioned above.
3. Add scoring.
4. Finish the background
5. Add graphics and sounds for combos made.
6. Animate swapping/mixing color moves.
7. Add top-scores screen
8. Add Options screen
I'll try to post a tech demo soon, after I get the RULES coded into it.
Ok, I decided to make a screen shot.
