Just for a fun fact, did you know the Ban Hammer is actually what Kayn uses to slam his dykes?

This is just because I actually will have to do some work to make my next post in here...

That fact is quite fun

I know I'm probably a dumbass for asking but...

Is there actionscript in other languages

For example, is there a spanish version of flash and actionscript itself? I'm kind of wondering this because if there wasn't then how would people who speak exclusively spanish (like Luis :D) make games using flash and such? Would they have to learn a little bit of English so they knew what did what, would they just learn the terms without knowing what the words actually meant?

Tis 12 : 01 and it is time to welcome the coming of the "Busy Reg-Flash day" created by Luis =)

Don't post unless you can show something productive you have created in flash today, or otherwise, as Luis has said, IT WILL BE DELETED!

This is a screenshot from my next submission "How to make simple shapes in Flash." I'm sure it will help plenty of noobs and whenever someone says they are new to flash I will give them a link to this flash.

zrb made me do it

So.. Where's your proof of productivity? ;)

I am making a MineSweeper game, mostly for fun, but I might make something out of this engine eventually though: Check it out

It's not 100% functional yet, atm you can't lose and neither can you win :P

Controls:
Left click - "Open"
Middle click or CTRL+Left click - Flag
Shift + Left click - Mark

And no, I didn't do this the last 15 mins, it has kept me busy for about two hours now. It counts though imo ;)

There's no way that's a circle :P

Well, it was made in Paint :D

Time for a real production thing.

I've been working on my part for my own collab. Right now I'm not really liking how it looks, here it is

Anyone wanna give Feedback?

That is pretty much exactly like the real version, or at least it will be when its 100% done. Great job :D

Im workin on a new game. i posted it earlier, but its in my userpage, for those too lazy, click on the link in my sig.

I was back in my hometown for the weekend. My mother had me root through my old crap to see what could be thrown out. Is it wrong that I had to fight the urge to play with my Legos?

No, Legos are awesome! Sometimes I just wanna sit down and play with em, but I resist the urge.

Also, you shouldn't be posting unless you have work to show, we are having an all-flash day. If you post and you don't have a preview of a flash or something similar your post will be deleted

I have seniority over whoever said that. Especially if it was Luis :P

Here goes,

Looking good so far, not from a graphics point of view, but from a coding point of view that is :). I hope we'll see some progress on that today.

It's just a simple transition. That's why I left the Grid Collab basically, you can do so much more with a set grid than a transition consisting mainly of a few lines moving around. When the blue gradient thingy is finished it actually looks like it has some depth, like a well or something. You could animate someone falling in or something. Just something to make it look more interesting. Try animating something you would normally in Flash with the grid, the results will surprise you.

who wants to be flash-productive with me today? i need ideas

Looks great, you've improved since we last talked ;D.

We never finished that game did we :(.

Here's a screeny of the menu I've been working on for an adventure-platformer type thing. Now if only I can get Flash to work without more weird bugs :-s

That looks pretty detailed, nice job on the paintbrush parts. The dark look would fit a vampire themed game very well. The font goes nicely with it, I hate it when people spend hours and hours on their Flash and go with the standard font (Times I think)... Serif actually works here, most of the time it doesn't with Flash animations/games.

At 8/5/08 05:49 AM, BritishMoose wrote: Here's a short cartoon WIP

You're going to have to finish that one now, I'd be angry if you don't. For some reason it looks very 'classic', like something Disney would make dozens of years ago. The walk cycle looks great and really adds to the personality of the character.

Well ive been productive today and have been working on my goblin :)

Awesome, reminds me of castle crashers :). Looks good, very detailed and well drawn.

Okay then, here's a couple of shots from a game i'm working on. It's an audiosurf flash clone, so you can use any mp3 and it will create a track to play, along with trophies, high scores etc. It's still very beta, so i can't post a demo yet, but if you have any ideas, that would be awesome.

Oh, and i'm looking for an artist to do a small amount of work, there's cash in it though, so if you're interested, pm me.

Hey, looks awesome Dep, when do you need the art done by? If Its only a fairly small amount id be happy to help :)

What do you guys think of these graphics so far? I was initially happy with them but I dunno... everything seems a little bit... flat? I just feel theres something missing at the moment, what do you think?

I believe your game requires badass black sheep J1mp.

I think what's missing is more detail and variety on the foreground terrain. Very very nice though.

Don't change a thing.

This is one of the creative things I've done today (more coming probably). I think we should now all force Duder to get his arse into the music industry.

Another peice of productivity today :) (actually i ddint do it all today but ive been working on there moves :)

My only criticism would be that the UI looks TOO integrated into the game, specially the stuff at the top of the screen where you have the information inside clouds. Sometimes its best not to overdo it. UI is there for informational purposes, keep it simple. The only example that comes to mind right now is Castle Crashers where the info up at the top that shows the knight and the other UI info is quite to the point and direct. They could have made a whole medieval theme but it would take up too much space and make it look like its trying to hard to fit INSIDE the game when it should more or less be information that informs you without disturbing your experience.

==========================

I'm starting up a new PMF next week... i was supposed to start it on Monday but I got caught up in a few other things going on right now. In terms of the concept of my part... i hadnt animated a walk cycle in ages so i thought i would, its probably one of the toughest things for me to animate.. cause its a loop where the limbs have to move gracefully and yet feel really relaxed.. i find it more difficult than a run loop where the limbs are at their extremes and its more forgiving of errors.

PMF 3

Alright I took Xeptic's suggestion into mind and added something else to my part for my collab.

Here it is

Forgot my feedback on other peoples stuff:

Xeptic that is a great song, Duder has quite a nice voice, I was expecting it to terrible. The beat and the lyrics are awesome (even though you did make the beat using Rock Band)

DarkMana, that looks like a really cool engine, I'm sure that if you actually do end up making a project out of that it will be a great one.

J1mp, those graphics look fine to me, but I agree with Luis, the cloud hud things look way too...I dunno, not good

Depredation, even though I've never played AudioSurf, that looks really good and I can't wait to play.

Hello all,

am on holiday atm but just came on to see how the old crowd is (just cant keep away).

Since you lot are in a critical mood, go check out Cai Wengi's sub, he's finally given us something :D\\

I would take a more in depth look at it myself but I can't stay on for long.

Hope all is well with all. ^^

Yeah, I think I agree. I found out that we were gonna have flying enemies too after doing the HUD, and ive realised it takes up wayy too much space. Ill make it less obtrusive! Cheers for the tips :)

Also my gangsta sheep turned into Mr T.... animated link

looking at it again that walk cycle looks a bit screwed...
