I know how you feel... One of the first things I'm usually forced to do is mute almost everyone in my team. Still, the multiplayer is what I bought the game for, the 5 hour campaign is too short to spend 60 euros on... And the mp in MW1 was great.

... but I thought the single player was great. The story was excellent, though hard to follow at some points a bit. I thought the cohesiveness of the story was fine.

Maybe I was a bit too harsh, my expectations were too high. I just can't help but notice the game feels kinda empty/soulless. This game had such a huge budget, I was expecting some high quality writing, with characters you care about, a logical/deep plot, without the plottwists you see coming hours before they take place, recycled stuff from MW1 etcetera. It's still a good game, don't get me wrong, but it's nowhere close to what I hoped it would be.

Disturbing :P Haha, first post on here :)

A 'bug report' from Kongregate.

"this game is the most sukest game i have ever played in my life and i am 13 years old why would someone wan't to wast there time clicking 100 times"

I like the fact that he uses his age as if to say, "At the ripe old age of 13, I have seen the world. After these 13 years, I thought nothing would surprise me. I thought I'd seen the highest highs and the lowest lows. Then I saw your game and found a nadir previously unimaginable - I'm amazed you can still surprise me at this point but there you are."

this is what the inside of a simple SWF looks like

None of the tags are fully decoded yet, working on it

That looks like it's going to be an awesome game!! How much of the game have you done?
Enough to show an example or demo or stuff?

It can't.

It can help with loading SWF files in c++ so I can extract graphics and animations from a SWF instead of using annoying sprite sheets

Awesome! Saves a lot of work in the long run, I bet.
Didn't Tommy from Team Meat do something like that as well? (link)

Best of luck Glaiel; It's amazing stuff that you're doing!

He did a flash EXPORTER which runs a javascript plugin in flash that packs images into a texture then exports it with tweening information and stuff (i.e. bitmaps)

I'm doing a flash IMPORTER which takes an SWF and lets you extract vector graphic data from the swf file for rendering (which you can then render as vector or convert to bitmaps then render at runtime).

Ah, I wasn't too sure what exactly you were doing, and that was the only thing I could relate it to.
My bad.

I like how you do your vector vegetation, ive started to get a bit pissed with vectors though , i tend to do a lot more backing in PS now, i much prefer raster work , i feel like it lets you add more emotion but its only really necessary in animation i geuss
good stuff !

I think that's what they did for Castle Crashers. Very neat idea =P

You could take a look at haXe's format library. It can already read swf and abc. I had fun getting the abc from the ActionScript3 tag and reading it with the format library to create a very simple decompiler.

They're 16 and there's a post limit. =)

Ok guys, I'm working on a new game and I'm trying to make the Platform engine feel perfect.
How's this feel.

I found this game fun, although it has many flaws, I liked the boss fights :D

This any better. Still got reasonably low friction now but it's not over the top anymore.
Also increased jumpheight and decreased gravity to give it a slightly more relaxed feel while speeding up the man allowing for more agile movements and longer jumps.

I like the patchman on the left, but the guys on the right look a little out of place

Better?
