Well guys, as you can see from the screenshot above, I got it so you can now kill enemies, and die from landing on them, or else falling in a hole.

I can easily make it so some enemies are stronger then others, like basically 1 enemy could take 1 shot to die, and others can take 3 shots to die. What do u think I should do?

And also, the 00000's in top right corner are gonna be the score. Im going to rig it so It has alot of 0's infront of the score so it gives it an "arcade" feel to it Very Happy

***IVE GOT A GREAT IDEA FOR HOW TO CODE ENEMIES WHILE SAVING SPEED ALOT, AND ALLOWING ENEMIES TO MOVE, SHOOT IN 2 DIRECTIONS, AND CHANGE DIRECTION IN WHICH THEY ARE FACING. FINALLY AN IDEA. WOOOOOHOOOOO****** Very Happy Very Happy Very Happy Very Happy Laughing

Well it obviously has to clear the guy with text(, however the crappy TISSHOT animated screenshot thing I use, tends to skip over frames, and make it seem likes its flashing longer, and more often then it really does, so the answer to your question is no Very Happy

Ummm, I maye have a demo out soon, with like 1 level or something like that, but if all goes well I might have the enemy routines done or else nearing completion by sunday.

Ill keep ya'll updated.... Very Happy

No I did not use text( to draw the guy I only used it to clear the guy. I drew the guy with 3 pixels, and 1 line. The tewo leg pixels have a boolean logic statement that move them up depending on the variable in which you are moving, so its pretty cool how it worked.

I used text to clear him b/c it saves speed, instead of saying PxlOff(and everything. Very Happy

Or release the documentation/source that would let someone else make one, or have an oncalc level editor like mario. I'm glad to know that it doesen't really flash as much as the picture shows.

Hmmm, I actually was thinking about a level editor, where the user would be able to make levels with as many frames as they like and with complete freedom. It would be ONCALC and programmed in BASIC, however I dont think I will make it before I release it because then its just more time you guys have to wait Very Happy but Ill definetely think more about it. Maybe Ill request the help of a UTI member. We will see Very Happy

***BTW LVL ALMOST DONE, DEMO NEARING COMPLETION***
