Topic: Stencyl / Mochi+Stencyl?

Is there anyway to add mochi to stencyl? Surely if you can edit the raw actionscript you can just add it in?

Any answer would be nice :p

FGL accept unity games?

Topic: Game Programming / Monetising Unity games?

Okay, so my plan for the next couple of years while I have some free time is to create a unity game, which i’ll be releasing in chapters. However, the question is; how can i monetize a unity game? Besides charging for the game and donations?

Topic: Collaborations / Need a programmer, turn based strategy game. (%)

You’re acting as if i’ve just got a general idea for a game and am expecting serious money for it…

Topic: Collaborations / Need a programmer, turn based strategy game. (%)

You’re one person, you’re not every programmer.

it might not be everyone who’s interested,but there are definitely people interested.

Just because this isn’t great for you, you don’t have to denounce it.

Also, thank you ^

Topic: Collaborations / Need a programmer, turn based strategy game. (%)

I watch extra credits regularly, already seen it. I have an idea i’m passionate about here, and i’m offering all the ground work for a game. It might not seem like a lot to you, but it is definitely a lot of work saved.

Topic: Collaborations / Need a programmer, turn based strategy game. (%)

I seriously can not code. I have tried multiple times for days straight to learn, and it just doesn’t happen, yet I have an idea, which i’m offering to a developer who just wants to code for most of the game.

I’m not doing nothing, Directing the project controls the difference between a fairly okay game and an amazing game through polish, and strategy games require immense balancing.

also, game writing is something most are not particularly good at.

Topic: Collaborations / Need a programmer, turn based strategy game. (%)

Okay, So I’ve been sitting on this idea for a while, pretty much perfecting it, but in basics, its a turn based strategy game arguably similar to the battalion series (but coming into its own in quite a few areas).

I need a programmer who can create essentially entire game (without sounding over demanding :p) we can find an artist and work it out with him, and I can find music thats acceptable to use, though we may need to find sound etc.

What I will provide is the concept of the game, writing for the game, balancing, map design (in whatever format you choose) and any other tasks you feel need doing.

You will be able to take a decent (majority) percentage, though the exact percentage depends on all the extra’s we need, and my share will be a small stake (10-15%, exact terms we will discuss)

I will write a game design document once i recieve a serious offer, and that way I can write it based on your needs/how you want it laid out.

Ok, thanks for any response i get!

Topic: Game Programming / Getting started with flash develop

Okay, so i want to get started with flash develop, starting from scratch (i know VERY basic Actionscript but lets pretend i don’t know any)

How do i get going and making a game?

Sorry if this is badly worded, but I just need some resources for making a game in flash develop

Topic: Kongregate Labs / I'm looking forward to one day making a multiplayer game. But how?

Or you need to outsource the programming.

Though i guess you probably should just learn.

Topic: Collaborations / Artist needed [small job]

I need new images designed for the game, to effectively “re-brand” it, but with decent graphics, as it has quite horrible ones at the moment

Topic: Collaborations / Artist needed [small job]

Okay, so i realised i have a game with some excellent gameplay, that is lacking some serious polish

I simply need very simple things created at a high quality, a menu screen, text, quite a simple overall job

The game will be self sponsored, so i can only offer mochi ad revenue %, which probably won’t amount to too much, but you never know.

Let me know if you’d be interested, and what percentage you’d need (maybe some previous work, as well, i guess)

Topic: General Gaming / Xbox 360 - best turn based strategy games?

I’m wondering if the xbox actually has any TBS’s on it, as i really want a nice game to relax from the twitch based skill of games like Modern warfare

name any you know of, thanks! ^.

Topic: Kongregate / Two unity kong questions

ok, thanks, though it’d be nice to see some confirmation on the limit, as i’m building a MASSIVE game atm.

Topic: Kongregate / Two unity kong questions

Thanks for the reply

2) I was looking through some entries, and one said they couldn’t add more because there was a 20mb limit, was that a lie then? :s

3) but would you make less for reasons like advertisers?

Topic: Kongregate / Two unity kong questions

1: can you have multiple entries in the top 25 of the contest
2: what is the size limit for unity?
3: do you get rev share, if so is it the same ammount (or close) as a flash game?

Topic: General Gaming / Black Ops Classes, Killstreaks, Etc.

Primary Weapon: Famas (Reflex extended mags
Secondary: M1911 Akimbo, or a python speed reloader

Lethal: tomahawk
Tactical: flash bang
Equipment: motion sensor

Perk 1: Hardline pro
Perk 2: Warlord pro

The flex extended mags keeps all the fire rate of the famas…with none of the recoil :D

Applied, very keen on a reply :)

also, is mochi support included?

Topic: Game Programming / Top down moving around... How to go about it

its quite a complex process, i like to have a bit of re-assurance from the forums

and i actually thought it through, i’d rather have changing frame system with 1 main character, how do you have it so it is created on the screen when needed?

Topic: General Gaming / Game release : Space Aggression

http://www.kongregate.com/games/toycat/space-agression

I’ve developed my first “full” game, now available on kongregate and would appreciate some feedback and 5 ratings if possible :D to get it up to a point where it can have an average rating :)

Topic: Game Programming / Top down moving around... How to go about it

Ok, i’m working on this slowly.

So whenever the main charcater hits an edge of the map, or something to change it, i make the new map popup in a lower layer, then i have the hud and characer and objects above it

is that the right way to go about this? ^.

Topic: Game Programming / Top down moving around... How to go about it

that sounds quite a bit harder than my current strategy :p

Topic: Game Programming / Top down moving around... How to go about it

i quite like the idea of different maps actually, it would allow me to easily make a interface etc
Could i have the player walking in 1 theoretical place, with reaching boundaries making the objects on screen change? That sounds like it could be an easy way past this, as then everything could be achieved on one screen, with a LOT of code for each individual object

Topic: Game Programming / Top down moving around... How to go about it

Well i want to make a simple top down (birds eye view) rpg, which i’m developing for the fun of it to improve my flash skills :) (10 mins in by the link)

http://tcxgames.com/studio/arrow/index.html

I decided to go about movement across a large map by having each map segment in its own frame, and each time you hit an edge, you change frame to the relevant frame, and i change the position of the main character so its on the opposite side, to create the effect of moving

the problem is, to do this i need a main character on each screen, which makes things a bit buggy when you go back to a previous screen

Anyway,
1: (if relevant to fix the problem) what is the code to remove an object after moving to the next frame, so it enters the next frame and uses the object which is there

2: is there a better way to go about this? :)

Topic: Game Programming / strange wall error help (as2)

http://tcxgames.com/uploads/err0r.bmp
or play for yourself and try and find it (you get it about 1 time in every 500 or so hits)
http://tcxgames.com/uploads/brick-it1.0.html (level two is blank to allow you to find it, try and hit the ball in the corners (bottom left and right)

if(mcBall._x <= 20){

ballXSpeed *= -1;
}

i’m using this formula to create a wall on the left side of the game (same on the right, but with inverse, off course.

Issue is, when you hit it in the corner the ball goes crazy, presumably trapped on the x<=20 line, it still goes up and down but it then can’t go right anymore, ending the game effectively

what am i doing wrong? D:
