More kinda uninteresting updates...




The GUI graphics are coming together, and the ones for the level editor are complete.  The main menu background is started, and will eventually be animated so that the big logo in back disappears back into the distance as the main menu comes in.

I also spent some time reprogramming the switches.  They no longer switch tiles between activation states, since I decided seven more tile spots would be more important than being able to choose the exact lever position on the switch.  Three already went to colored switches, and one to an ice-tile version of the pressure switch.

As of now, there are only 7 more "special" tiles out of 64 tiles total that need their functions programmed in.  The last will be saved for more towards the end, since it obviously won't show up any earlier.

Ever get to the point where you've nearly finished something and then it occurs to you to test something and you discover a game-breaking bug that results in having to recode a few large sections of code?

Last week, I did.

So after a week of working between retarded Computational Theory and Discrete Mathematics midterms round 1, I redesigned how blocks and the player work with switches and 'doors,' working in a basic form of Z axis replacing the old system that mostly worked with a boolean variable named "IsHigh."  The result is that, through careful level design and management of blocks, the player is able to design block towers for whatever absurd reason.


Crap.  I just realized they aren't programmed to work with rotating bridges when stacked...

Hey, you sure you're not overdoing this? Maybe you should just release the game Wink

This is looking good, I like the idea of it. Fairly simple, but solid concept. I'm not sure what I think of the art style, but it'll do.

The last time that I read this thread, according to the forums, was in late 2009.

So after almost a year of working on other things (other people's student films, my application portfolio for my major), I can finally get back to working on this.

I don't have anything new to show, though this last week I completely rewrote the section of the engine that handled the tiles and how they worked.  Instead of having the level object handle the functions of every single tile, the tiles themselves have their own classes that extend a base tile class, and I don't have to program all functionality in an over-cluttered ActiveLevel.as file.

So as I said in my first post:
It's like this game I made back in 2003, Outer-Space Game With Tiles That Fall When You Step On Them Too Much, except it won't suck and I actually know how to program correctly.
Well, now I actually know how program correctlier.
