Title: If Any Is Interested. A Game
Post by: flattspott on April 22, 2004, 03:21:00 PM
Okay guys, as I told geniusalz, I scrapped my made up LightsOut game or sorts. The reason being, I came to realize that every single level was impossible to beat. Now that didn't sound like a fun game to me.

However all is not lost. I am now doing a strait up clone of LightsOut. Including all 50 levels. Don't worry, I'm mostly reusing the script stuff from the last one so it's not gonna take that long. Hopefully I have it by tonight.

EDIT:

This shit is working great now, out of the five levels I tried, I beat them all, using a cheat sheet of course so I could make sure it actually works.

Should be done after a few hours of tuning.

I want to add all the solutions too (maybe)

Why did you give up on the Tic Tac Toe?

I'll be adding some more ActionDraw related stuff....

CreateDrawObj <Handle> <Command> [<Params>]

and

DrawObj <Handle>

Basically, you create a handle to a particular ActionDraw object, and I'll have some commands to manipulate it without having to reset the list (Just establish the list once, then use the handles to manipulate objects on the screen)

I also will add some Trig functions (SIN/COS/TAN/etc...)

I'm working on speeding things up a notch first, though....

Ok I didn't really give it up.  It's just that I can never keep my mind set on one thing.

Well this may be impossisble to beat too. Cause it's all gonna be random events. I want to include a level selecter by a passcode system. Like a cheat menu just for fun, kinda like the one in Ninja Turtles. Also a level completed checklist similar to Chu Chu Rocket for the GBA.

BTW:
Did anyone notice what I added to the TicTac Script?
CODE

:StealSpot
GoSub GetCurrent
If %Text{Current}% == "O" Then
 Set Text%Current% "X"
 Set Color%Current% BLUE
EndIf
Goto RefreshScreen

I don't have a clue as to what that is spose to be.  Guess I'm not gonna be getting 5 points today..

Maybe it spose to resemble the new MXM logo?
<<<

Anywho it's almost time to release it. About another month or so... just kidding

A few annoying issues when you click on the blocks on the outer edges. It wants to change the colors on the opposite edge too.

Also, now it has a name. iBlocks (a.k.a. Impossible Blocks)

It has a little intro effect, MXM compatibility checking, and a board selector.

I want to have a random board option that will make a new one on the fly with an option to save it.

Upateroo :

Add a simple save/load last game. This save all the changes you've made to a board so you can play it later form where you saved it.

At the moment it's a next game only thing, meaning you save and quit, then the next time you have to load it or else it will be overwritten.

Like I said though at the moment.
