I think I’ll just have 5 of the scrolling levels for now. they will be used to take out the ship(s) in some way. I’m not totally sure on details quite yet. you will also need to buy the bombs to open doors and different crystals for their laser guns. They will so have alternate unique weapons. I will try to have a upgrade screen for their weapons later. in each area there are now 4 yellow laser things. And I will have it where after all 4 are destroyed the core becomes unstable and you can shoot it to take out the ship. you will need to reach a evacuation area before time runs out. failing will probably make them not useable for a few days.
There are resources in each ship in the above mini still but there are much more in the exploration mini.
This mini will be primarily used to get resources will be explorations of abandoned space stations and asteroids. There will only be one map of each for the next release but they are pretty big areas. I don’t want to make a bunch of areas if the overall idea doesn’t work well. and the locations of resources is randomized. they are no enemies but you take damage from hitting the walls and stuff you will also need fuel, etc. I will add more areas later. TT and Bri will be better for this mini. the pic below is super wip.
also for space battles. I want to have it where after you beat the main person, you will battle random non-specific agents after that until the next area.
wow man i can’t wait to play this update 😀
doing a great work man!
Thanks hopefully soon~
It’s looking awesome!
Thanks!
Eu queria mandar um arquivo que eu criei para ver se era possivel colocar no jogo da Maiko, mas ele é em swf e aqui não permite. É um arquivo meio tosco. Um arquivo Simples. É uma pena.
upload it somewhere and post a link to it.
Perhaps instead of having the bombs required to complete the mini, have them make the mini either easier or have a greater reward. For example: Have them unlock a shortcut that has less hazards and let you get to the core easier, or have them unlock storage compartments for more resources, adding a greater incentive to having bombs. Or maybe something like with the storage compartments have that be a little bonus in case you came over-prepared. Just a thought 😀
But overall things seem to be coming along nicely, can’t wait to play this!
atm I don’t want the scrolling mini to be completable without some kind of cost since it makes the space battle significantly easier, and in some cases just makes it possible to complete. I would have to take another look at how I’m doing the levels to see if I can add different paths and stuff. at the moment I can’t do different paths because of they way I have it coded. But let’s try it like this first and if it needs to be changed I can change it.
I didn’t mean to make it sound like I was trying to control your game or make you do any extra work or anything XD I think in all this is actually a rather ingenious idea that I don’t think I’ve ever seen in any game before, I was mostly just thinking aloud about different possibilities that I just came up with XD
no worries I just like to explain the reason why I did something.
I did take all the resource crates in the ship raids so it is possible I can some hidden stuff on some of them later on.
So for space battles the ‘Bosses’ would be replaced by Generics once defeated
Hmmm you could potentially add special defeat conditions to get special scenes where you capture them or just H-scenes. -this would be further down the line when you’ve added in the girls doing something special to give you an edge-
