Hey this game rocked. Good job on 10th place. It should've been in the top 5 in my opinion. Good work.

BTW - Wasn't this open source?

Thanks! I don't agree with it being 5th though. I agree with it being 10th place.

uh...I don't remember that, but here is the code:


And attatched is the media (without the music because it is too big)

Great game, as I've said before.

So, What do you think Laser Assault 4 will be like? I can only imagine based on the diff. between this and LA2

You didn't say it would be open source, but all your games are.

I... NEvermind, I wouldn't post the source.

Wow...Laser Assault 4? Don't know yet. I want to make an RPG and another planned game, and maybe another horizontal shooter with another name and theme...but I will probably make another. It will hopefully be in 3D (If I can figure out how to model )

I want to give the source of every game I make so others can learn from it, except for if I sell it (of course)

Why not?

DON'T Trust me on this one, but it's okay, if your think you should. Just be very careful.

This was really good, and fun to! A little detail that made me fall in love with the game is that the shots fired by the player doesn't just go stragith ahead, as most do. I think the game looked more proffesional. That, plus the shaking camera when you get hit.

Really good!
However, I think you should cinvert to 3D now. In my opinion, 2D isn't as long lasting as 3D. But that's me talking.

Thank you!!!!

Me too. I can't model very well, but I have a great idea that doesn't need very much modeling. I will begin working on Laser Assault 3 soon. I am still taking a break from DB. I might want to make a car/puzzle game before then though. You will control a car in a city with cartoonish graphics, and for some reason, you can only turn left. You need to drive around the city delivering mail, and avoid cars and people or the police will come after you. I have had that idea for a while now.

lol, sounds fun. But you should put in an powerup or something that makes so you only can turn right for a while... to make it more variated. I wish you goodluck.

The game realy good and addictive. Its traditional 2d shooter in all areas, and everything works out pretty well.

Some ideas: Little bit of lightning or color, it's now quite dark. Bitmap fonts and other shining, i found a plugin someday: http://www.accode.com/dbp.htm (Scroll down). And somekind of info that says how many points you have to score to get to the next level, so players keep playing untill they reach the limit of impossible

It's well done, and that open source thing is realy good. I wish I or this would have been around when I was thinking of coding some powerup logics in my first game

Ps. You should make a website or forum post for your open source games, just like I have for my games, they are all oss too.

Thank you!!!

I have DBC, so I can't use it, but thank you though.

I might make a forum post once I get a big enough collection, but as for websites, I can't find any hosting services that don't have a ton of ads, and allow uploading .rar or .zip files. Can you tell me of a good one?

Quote: "you should make a laser assult 4 online"

no


I don't know any web-based programming languages. Only HTML, but that isn't much help

I think he means, make it online through DBC. I know it's hard, but then again, save up for DBP. That's what I did.
