Site rocks. Best on web.

It would be nice if you were able to post a screen picture of the title page and one of the game in action, so people could decide if they want to download the game as they might enjoy it.

This could reduce your bandwidth too, as people will not need to download a game that they don't like the look of.

Anyone agree?

Would be wonderful if you managed to also make scans of manuals for the games! B)

well... you will find almost every good game commented in the forum... this would help you to choose best games...

furthermore the page will became soooo long... for example in the last 2 days 10 games came out...

i think this suggestion is not applicable

Hi..
Why not use Google to search for the Game Covers.
There are plenty of SIte that keep up reviews of new games with their Pics and ScreenShots .. Use them to check out the Game..

Im sure would be real time consuming and space filling to add Pics to this Site..and would probably take ages to have the page load up..

I feel this is a Crisp , Neat and Cool Site .. Hopefully Kivan keeps it this way.

And do remember more Pics mean more KB added and more Badwidth consumed.

Manuals .. Nice idea ..but isnt this asking too much.. I feel the Forum and Roms are more than enough.

Take Care

This is something I've been messing around with for a while, but I can never be bothered finishing the damn thing. Currently just a gameboy displaying a screen capture for all the games up to 500 or so.
No design, no text, etc. I was just trying something out to see if it'd work for another project.

That reminds me I havent updated my boxart since 450, lol.

Still if I really thought it was necessary I'd probably finish it.
I'm not convinced it'd be used by more than a handfull of people.
Most that I know just download all the roms, no matter how awful.

    I think Game streaming should work like this.... Local Hardware able the run the game fine, game engine and common assets stored locally, all FMV and music and textures could be streaming

  • Psionic Roshambo @ Psionic Roshambo:
    Some temporary storage
  • Xdqwerty @ Xdqwerty:
    also @BigOnYa im making some progress on my gdevelop project, implemented various mechanics
  • Psionic Roshambo @ Psionic Roshambo:
    They went all in on streaming, should have been more of a hybrid approach

    Or free government supplied high speed internet be nice also. Like Obama care. Xdqwerty that's cool, its time consuming but rewarding once done or playable, to see what you've made from scratch. Animations take forever, but worth it.

    @BigOnYa, although the bullets are a bit buggy

    Not to mention this would be a massive pain to pirate

    @BigOnYa,
    and the visual aspect of the game is quite crude (the sprite that looks best is that of the protagonist just because he is a stickman with sunglasses)

  • BigOnYa @ BigOnYa:
    There is a bullets behaviour you assign to your character, that makes the code easier, under "behaviours"
  • Xdqwerty @ Xdqwerty:
    i meant that when the character is pointing to the right, the bullets spawn where they should, but when he is on the right, they move to the right but the spawn point is incorrect
  • BigOnYa @ BigOnYa:
    Itch.io has lots of free assets also. Under the bullets behavior tab, there is a "rotate bullets" option, can try that. Or in the code can try
    - fire bullet Player.X(PlayerDirection)

    YEa gotta after a while, looking at code for long periods will bug your eyes.

  • BigOnYa @ BigOnYa:
    That's cool tho, I'm proud of you going back to it, not giving up. It is difficult at first to learn, but fun once you get the hang of it. I think I've watched every tutorial video there is, but I still struggle sometimes to get stuff to work right. But gotta keep trying dif things, and eventually you will get it right.
