    Rum Boogie aka try my incomplete game #2

    I have release an updated version of my pacman game. It's near complete. There are still some misssing features including the fixing of the speed.

    You can download it here:

    What do you think of the game overall so far?

    Also, could you please help me correct the ghosts movements?

    Thank you

    Thumbs up

    The address should be: http://www.geocities.com/calvinl97/lambs4/

    This game rocks.... Nice job.

    The speed is a little bit too fast and you should make the blue ghost a bit more intelligent.
    What are the green and red ghosts suppose to do?

    I don't have time to check the editor but it looks very nice. Can you make your own levels and save them?

    Yes, you can save(s) and load(l) levels, but right now there's only three items you add to the maps. In the end I hope to make it more customizeable. When you save the levels they must follow the naming order(levelxx.lev).

    Very cool game, love the sound effects!!! Yer right about timing, but other than that - excellent!

    That was a major understatment!
    Totally unplayable, the pacman didn't move, it teleported to the corners when a arrow button was pressed.


    The game has some potential, but you *must* implement some kind of timing routine, either with constant (easiest) or variable FPS.

    Maybe there's just no speed control in, and your computer is way faster than everyone else's? (i.e. other people w/ 400 mhz cpu's and you have 200000 mhz maybe, and he doesn't have those few lines of code that limit the speed to around 60 fps)


    **EDIT**
    sorry, didn't read your whole post
    Just Google It. √

    Don't mean to drift off topic but Hunter2 you might want to fix your signature.

    P.S.
    if(somebody.is(about_to).shoot() == you)
    {
    you.better(put_on(Vest(VS_LARGE | VS_BULLETPROOF)); //this line very important!!!
    }

    Look at the line within the if statement. 1 too few closing paranthesis.
    Be yourself for those who mind don't matter, and those who matter don't mind.

    let's see this:
    if(
    somebody.is(about_to)
    shoot()
    == you
    )

    Wrong, it's perfectly fine

    **EDIT**
    oh, within the if. Oops Fixed it!
