PGDmC: The Ancient Tower

[Daikrys]

hey thx paul, i already planned to use sfxr for jump and collect sounds but never tested the app yet

today i got some hours and finished the "lvl editor" and the lvl build algorithm
the editor is just a .txt file x)
and the algorithm was needed cause i want only an endless mode for the mini-comp version

and btw. Will can you please change my topic title and add "PGDmC:" there? dont know how i can do this by myself

I've used sfxr for at least 3 of my gaming projects now so far...works well for what it does

cheers,
Paul

Done. You should be able to go to the forum that contains the thread and double-click on the space just right of your topic. It'll then turn into a edit box and you can alter it.

That's how I did it anyhow.

i was sure it is some kind of magic but okay its just cheating!

atm im really pissed cause my code wont compile and i dont know why
i just compiled it wednesday and it all worked perfect, today i start my delphi and it throw out an error
i mean how can it be? im 100% sure i closed delphi after i compile last time

EDIT:
oh kay...found the error, glad that i found it so quickly
the game missed a file (it was anyway not used atm) and throw out and error about position instead of file not found

i was on to make a real one but textfiles come very handy for my game so there isnt actually one
still plan to make a second edition of the game after the mini challenge and maybe there will be an easy to handle editor with handy userinterface

Notepad := 'Best editor ever!';

yay its done!

i uploaded my game to the mini-comp ftp, you can also find one on my own server at:
www.novastern.net/games/tower.zip

i dont got all features planned for the first edition done but i hope i can soon publish the second edition with all the nice things

the grafic isnt very smooth but it will do the job, same goes for coding
all creating stuff was done in about 19-20hours over one week, sadly i dont record the time i used for coding, grafics and lvlcreation individually
lucky me i dont needed to write a gamedocument cause i was alone and the projectsize was manageable with pure brainpower!

EDIT:
i uploaded a small fix for one of the lvlfiles

Oh my this game is great!
The music is great, the graphics are cute and it's such a simple concept!

I think you're definitely a shoe in for the top 3
