Alien
« on: April 09, 2019, 10:47:15 am »
Good morning / afternoon / evening

In the past few months, I have tried to reproduce a concept based on 80s / 90s platforms.
I attach the executable file of the first 3 levels.
Obviously this is a work in progress.
As soon as possible I will clean the code from many notes (7191 lines ...) and I will post the code, because it is definitely written in a prehistoric way and I will need your advice.
Run the program with audio, because the audio effects are definitely vintage.
In the HELP menu you will see the buttons to use (arrows and spacebar, in addition to the "f" key).
"F" key should be used for platforms near fish and where there is water.
Attention, as soon as you see the platform on the water, press "F" very quickly.
Maybe I'm crazy.
I await your comments.
Enjoy, bye

Alright, here are some things that I would like you to improve in this game:
You can't press the upper arrow key? Like come on! I don't know if it is because of the fault in your code but PLEASE FIX IT!
And the transition is REALLY REALLY LONG!!!

Those are my only complaints! But still, really nice game I would say! Keep working on it!
CLS
IF computer$ = "ON" THEN
me$ = "Happy!"
ELSE
me$ = "Time To Draw!"
END IF
END

Hi Prithak
Thanks for your suggestions.
To jump I use the up arrow key.
In the next few hours I will check it and update you.
Have a nice evening!

When I said upper arrow key, I meant in the menu! You physically can't use it!

Hi qb4ever
cool!

this is my first impression!

Polite graphic, simple and funny.

Yes I can confirm as negative feedback the experience of Prithak
No use of Up arrow key in menu, it works only key down arrow.
Programming isn't difficult, only it's  consuming time and coffee

Hi Tempodibasic,
yes i will fix soon the menu problem (i will, simply, put IF condition...).
This is a work in progress experiment, I have also prepared a level with enemies.
A presto, ciao.
