Shadow Fawn Games

Nobody · Post by **Nobody** » Sat Jan 29, 2011 5:10 pm

This is where I'll post my game-related stuff from now on (Mods, you can delete the Purple topic now).

I guess I'll put my current Purple wishlist in this first post to make it meaningful.

A player sprite (Purple is a creature that is purple. That's about all that's definite graphic-wise right now.)
A logo since the old one was on my old computer.
Level select music.
The three music tracks that I'll switch between for levels.
Some boss music.
Random helpful guys.

...and my project to-do list, not really in any order:

Purple
The Perfect Game (it's name) if possible
Try Quests again
Decide whether to try and make Shopping-The Game, give the plot away, or abandon it entirely

For the new logo, go to cool text(site). It's a logo maker.

Here's a player

boywhoflies · Post by **boywhoflies** » Sat Jan 29, 2011 5:55 pm

I took D-dudes player and edited it. Saddly the forum changed the size.

boywhoflies · Post by **boywhoflies** » Sat Jan 29, 2011 5:58 pm

Wait, nevermind. I thought it started at 32 by 32.

Here is a 32 by 32 one, sorry about DP.
(If a mod could merge them it would be great)

"Shopping-The Game"

teehee

And Shadow Fawn Games? Nice name.

Ever since I started planning my SEKRIT THINGY I always planned having my "company" be "MNIK Games - Evil games at their best™". I've been too lazy to actually make a logo for it, though.

If you need help with anything, just tell me.

@boywhoflies: Thanks, but I don't think I'll use that for teh Purple logo or Shadow Fawn logo.

@DEEMAN223344: More electronic than I hoped, but I'll let others judge this complete lineup:

MyNameIsKooky · Post by **MyNameIsKooky** » Sat Jan 29, 2011 6:23 pm

I pictured a cute purple ball thing, but those would be okay too, I guess.

boywhoflies · Post by **boywhoflies** » Sat Jan 29, 2011 6:29 pm

@Nobody:Ok.

Also, your complete lineup looks prety good but as you said it would be better if not as electronic.

IDEA: Purple can switch forms between the cute square thingy and the robot thingy.

Nobody · Post by **Nobody** » Sat Jan 29, 2011 9:13 pm

I actually wasn't planning on giving Purple multiple forms. I guess I'll consider use the square though, unless something better shows up.

MyNameIsKooky · Post by **MyNameIsKooky** » Sat Jan 29, 2011 9:21 pm

Maybe somehow he should be able to change size or something to get into different areas (only exclusive to some places)?

boywhoflies · Post by **boywhoflies** » Sat Jan 29, 2011 9:22 pm

That sounds like it would be a good puzzle game.

I tried to make something, It's not that great, but I though I'd post it anyway if someone wanted to edit it or something.

Nobody · Post by **Nobody** » Sat Jan 29, 2011 10:25 pm

I'm going with the square (which looks oddly familiar to me--strange) for Purple, but the robot and one of the frames of your thingy might show up as enemies or NPC's of some other sort.

maxnick · Post by **maxnick** » Sat Jan 29, 2011 10:29 pm

Well those aren't frames, there just different things I was trying to see if it looked good.

I don't know. The old logo looked better, e.g. the animal looked more normal.

Purple Progress:

No music. If anyone can give me tips on how to find good game music that's free and legal, or even better, directly give me music, that would be appreciated.

The sprite has been split into six colors: one for each character. The sprite also happens to be a few pixels too tall, but I think that I found a workaround.

Purple can't jump or fall yet. I tried to implement a falling engine, but he fell through the floor. I probably did it wrong. I won't start on jumping until I get falling to work.

MyNameIsKooky · Post by **MyNameIsKooky** » Thu Feb 17, 2011 7:56 pm

What I do for falling checks (written from memory):

If there is not a collision at relative position (0,1)
Set the gravity to 0.6 in direction 270
Else
Set the gravity to 0 in direction 270

If you want the player to land properly, you'll have to implement an appropriate collision code.

Well I don't normally do this buuuut....

Here's a random sprite I made. Anyone can edit or use it if they wish. It's a 32x32 purple ghost-type of a thing.

LittleZbot · Post by **LittleZbot** » Fri Feb 18, 2011 12:18 am

I found a random sprite on my Computer that might be good for purple.(hey, you still decide against Mr. square.)

I have a Good Logo for you

To jump, set vertical speed to -10
also, Blast!10 made some music, you just have to give him credit.

Yep. I made a ton like it, even two for me! They're really easy and really fun to make.

Nobody · Post by **Nobody** » Sat Feb 19, 2011 4:24 am

I only recently realized that Purple's main-ish gameplay element isn't all that easy to program. It involves clicking on certain objects and being able to move the in all 8 directions, then being able to switch back to Purple.

MyNameIsKooky · Post by **MyNameIsKooky** » Sat Feb 19, 2011 5:12 pm

Simple, just have another "disabled" object of Purple that you can't move around. Have the player object change into that when you're moving something else. However, do make sure that it can still interact with gravity and stuff in case you move something out from under you.

LittleZbot · Post by **LittleZbot** » Thu Mar 17, 2011 7:57 pm

I got bored, so I put this logo for Purple together.

LittleZbot · Post by **LittleZbot** » Thu Mar 17, 2011 7:58 pm

DP.

It uses my suggestion for purple, which I prefer.
