Quick game - dr.bibber

[Kitty Hello]

Hi,

I started on a Dr.Bibber game just to see how fast I can make this. I'll post some progress for those interested.

30 mins - lot or time spent for thinking about how I want to do the game. I'll go for a bitmap and then some AC3D 2D graphics for the collision detection.

Good luck with that Gernot!

AC3D 2D graphics for the collision detection.

How can using AC3D help with collision detection? 

[Kitty Hello]

OK, it zooms to the problem already. Hardest part is done.

My AC3D library can load AC2D 2D models and perform collision detection, too.

I think about rotating the stuff, so I might need a rotozoom_col function (which was requested previously, IIRC)...

Is this like Operation? How on earth can you reproduce the unsteady hand feature of the real game? Random movement of an onscreen cursor would be unfair.

I'll be interested to see the end result

Operation is cool.  Is that classified as a "board" game and is it for the comp?

[codegit]

LOL.....interesting!! 

[Kitty Hello]

Yes, it's called "Operation!" in the UK. The shaking of the hand comes from too much alc, mine is steady

I plan to make it an iPhone product, where you have to rotate the phone to rotate the object, and move with the finger. I'll see how it turns out.

mmm this is the game that i am doing for the competition.  I guess I had better make sure I do a very good job 

[Kitty Hello]

I'm not doing the compo. Also my version will surely differ a lot from yours. There's a lot of freedom in the implementation.

[Leginus]

Well i must admit i look forward to seeing an iphone version, and it would definitely be something I would play. 

[Kitty Hello]

OK, tweezers' in. Gameplay is fully there (I might add a "cut-scene" later...).

Time so far: 95 min.

[Leginus]

Now thats fast!!

Dont forget to add plenty of blood and perhaps a few screams as well... 

[mykyl66]

Excellent to see. Proof again of the speed of GlBasic.... in the right hands.

No screams and blood. My girls are 8 and 4 and I want to play with them. (That's the main reason why I write games ATM).
My little one is even too scared to play "Crocodile dentist" on the iPhone, so you can imagine what my version will be like
