J.C. Posted November 21, 2016 (edited) This is my first real run at Game Maker, so this is going to be rather rough, and mostly focused on mechanics so I can learn how to do it all! All art I've got is placeholder for now, with the plan to have it be silly cartoony stuff, in the vein of Parodius. The Game: Horizontal shmup. The (planned) gimmick is the Explode Mode, which will be the player's super, that charges up as you destroy enemies. This will allow you to ram enemies and launch them into others, creating more explosions! (which ideally will destroy enemies that come into contact with them) What I've got done: Player can move and shoot! To do: Enemies, enemy spawning, enemy pathing, scoring, super (charging/triggering) Edited November 22, 2016 by J.C. now with more gif Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Rilen Posted November 21, 2016 Awesome! Maybe post a pic/gif of it with placeholder assets and go fishing for artists! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
J.C. Posted November 21, 2016 I will, just at the office right now and all I've got on my phone is a huge .mov file! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
J.C. Posted November 22, 2016 Started trying to work on enemy stuff earlier tonight and realized I've got a lot to learn, so back to tutorials with me. At least I figured out the path function on my own! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Mythalore Posted November 22, 2016 That sounds like a really strong idea and that art is great already! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
