My game Vector... need playtesters
Well, I pretty much have all but one (very super rare only happened once
in months of lots of playing) bug out of my Asteroids clone, Vector. (I'm
not even sure where that bug is... It only happened once. since Euphoria
isn't registered I can't tell if it is from KEYREAD.E or whatever.... I
need to get a job. [Hey, I'm only 16 and in school... okay, not the best
excuse.. :) ], besides, I was playing the shrouded .EXE version... I
wouldn't know where it was anyway! :)
Anyway, if anybody is interested in playtesting for final tweaking before
I send a demo to be put on the Recent Contributions Page just ask... I
would like to have the game to be a little more balanced so I need
somebody other than me to do it. It also needs some optimization,
currently it needs a 486/66 for decent performance. And the manual might
need a little work. And maybe a real name, a long time ago (before
Euphoria), I created a little Qbasic demo that had a stupid looking ship
in vector graphics that could fly around and shoot (but the input was
horrible, no KEYREAD.E! :), and I copied that VECTOR.BAS to VECTOR.EX...
And I'm not good with naming things. Currently, my spell checker is
SPELL, my very early (still working on AI) racing game is RACE, etc...
I also have an idea I'd like input on:
Codeware. Sorta like Shareware, sorta like Freeware. If you want further
development in the game, send me ideas or help with the code (since it is
released non-shrouded.) That way I know that people other than me
actually like the game and want to see it get even better.
The current features in the game are:
Pretty cool AI (I just upgraded it so it really needs tweaking to get the
difficulty right... seems just a little hard, but I absolutely REFUSE to
make it dumber... I want the AI to be as smart as possible, and not cheat
at all to defeat the player.)
3 Powerups (Rapidfire, spreadfire and bombs), I need more ideas for more
of them.
High scores (Yeah, yeah, easy to do, but they are there!)
Addictive gameplay. Well, for me at least... I'd like more input on that
though... the main reason I've posted this message! :)
Okay, so all 3 of you that are least bit interested in the game can hit
the reply button now... :)
