Thread: My first game!!!!

AWESOME GAME

its not just good its awesome!

i passed it out to the people around my comp in class and everyones playing it hahaha

i cheated so i could recieve the full extent of the game...and for some reason when i got an old lady its like you gain 190000 exp but i never gained that much...

if you could re-check the code for the old lady that would be great!

please update tonight so i can bring another version to school...




too bad i cant compile it

i wanted to add to it heheh...

darn MSVC++

another thing i noticed... when i used that code where it displays a character at a time with a certain amount of sleep....

when i do it in MSVC++ for some reason it doesnt do it right...it sorta adds all the sleeps together then burps out all the letters at once... it compiles perfectly just doesnt run like i want it to...is it msvc++ or the way i coded?

and another thing...

im a newbie programmer, and im not even sure if this is possible...

but when i was saving i made a spelling error and saved it as a ".tt" file... well... it saved as .tt haha, maybe you should say to save it as .txt? well i dunno just reportin

sorry for another post but i gotta keep reportin what i think as i play or ill forget...

i made my way to the Sedra Forest, and well, im a lvl 1 and i got my ass kicked by an orc...

anyways, i died, yes thats right i died!

and for dieing i lost a total of 1 experiece! for some reason i thought i was like.. dead forever, which i should have been, but i only lost 1 experience...

maybe you should make it so you lose something more then that? just to make it more interesting...

btw

i really like your game and it seems really really large which is cool

btw#2

how could this be your FIRST GAME?

my first game was a crappy slot machine...

another report:

i really like the way you can hit any key to keep exploring...

because what i do is go to the easy area and type:

1 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 1

and i can just chat while i gain levels

but people should be able to hit "n" to go back to town instead of the whole word "no"

btw

to everyone, level 4 is a good level to head over to the sedra forest in my opinion

EDIT::

i just found the Haunted hills and i easily make it through the monsters at level 4

i notice that the monsters are doing like 4 damage to me and im doing about 10 to them...maybe that has something to do with skill points? but i think they should be doing as much damage to me or more when they hit me (which isnt often)

EDIT2::

ok, im lvl 6 now and in the Ancient Ruins and im starting to get hit a little harder

new question:

ok, ive got like 3000 gold... what do i do now? is there anything im supposed to do with all that money? all offensive spells do less dmg then my main attack so i dont get them...

what you think?

Yikes Paro you like my game huh
Big thanks for all the help you are giving me.
Especially Paro
Oh and it really doesnt matter which format you save in.

Well i'm going to school now but I'll come back later and finish all of these probs.
I dunno what the hell is wrong with that old lady......
Or maybe i have changed it already cause my code looks perfectly allright

Code:

if(chr.lvl<6) {
helpExp = chr.lvl * 25;
} else {
helpExp = chr.lvl * 50;
}
chr.exp = chr.exp + helpExp;

Here's an update with many of the small things (including the lady i hope) fixed.

EDIT:: Isn't there a weapon shop?

or maybe you have the best weapon.
Cause if there isn't a weapon shop with that one you are using you have something too look forward to though =)
In that case add seven 0's in the end of your savefile.

um, i think i found another error

im level 7 now, and last time i leveled i was supposed to gain 12 hitpoints...but it says i only have 27 now, im pretty sure i had more then 15 hitpoints last level...maybe you could check that out

lol

yea i like the game

i think i see the problem with the old lady...i cheated with the character text file, and i was like level 30, which by your code would give me 1500 exp...but it gave me almost 200000... hmm maybe i changed something else on the file that screwed it up

ill download your update and continue playing

oh darnit,

i downloaded the update but it seems im going to have to make a new character because when it loads the old one it sets the weapons as my old exp and gold and leaves my new exp and gold as Zero!

oh well, this way i will be able to find more errors heh

nice prologue its a great addition and same with the autoloader its so cool!

Hey i made like, i character creating sheet.
Here ya go

EDIT:: i found out what was wrong with the dying thing =D

The exp you lose is lvl*lvl*lvl*lvl

in other words, on lvl 1, 1*1*1*1 =D

LMAO

i see you've fixed my way of power leveling! hahaha

now i have to pay attention while i play

that weapons shop with different areas is really cool btw, keep up the awesome work!

one suggestion:

maybe you could have an option where you could go back to the main screen so you could load a different game or set the autoloader again? it might be helpful
