Don't go right.


RE: Metroid Dread - Previous - 08-06-2012

Would you mind adding a few describing words telling us about what you're doing here? What's the plan, tools you use, engines, programming languages or environments, story, what is special about your Metroid rendition that makes it outstanding, whatever you've got? Feed us a few interesting bits!

Generally, please add enough description to a GameDev thread to display what exactly you are making! Genki ^_^



Oh, and please add how the controls work!


RE: Metroid Dread - Gors - 08-06-2012

i like how the sole description of this game is "don't go right".

the screens look legit, though. I'll see if I can test this when I'm at home.


RE: Metroid Dread - SKELTON S. SKELETON - 08-06-2012

A few things:

It's cool that you're using Metroid Zero Mission's graphics (honestly, the most stylized of the 2D metroid games) but you may consider getting a pixelartist onboard to help you create new assets.
Things I liked: Physics of wall jumping, morph ball feel perfectly spot on. You had either a good base or you're a talented programmer, because you implemented Samus' physics remarkable well.
I wish you didn't use the physics from Zero Mission, though (arguably the worst in the series)

Yeah until I know more about it I'm not downloading it, too weary of these things.


RE: Metroid Dread - AlexR - 08-06-2012

It has suits and beams.

It's Metroid

In Game Maker 8.0

Has shift ctrl z x 1 2 3 4 b v g up down left right for control.


RE: Metroid Dread - Previous - 08-06-2012

Oh come on kid how hard can it be to write a proper description? Please.

I totally know what all the keys do now, too. And what your base engine is. And anything.

When you try to advertise your game, do it right. Present it well and make it interesting. Give people a reason to actually download the demo. Don't be all "Here it is" and that's all. Give us a reason to give your game a try and not the next kid's other Metroid clone.

I'm a nice man so I'll give you another try! Big Grin
(If you fail again I will just close this okay)

F*CK plots and story, that crap is for when you're finished. Unimpressed

Oh yeah yeah and the "controls"

UP you do know what that does
DOWN you know
LEFT man what can that do
RIGHT I really forget what it does

Z is shoot
X is jump

1 lbeam
2 ibeam
3 wbeam
4 pbeam

V varia
B power
G gravity

ctrl Missiles
A Switch missiles
Shift Diagonal aiming

No subscreen as of yet, I am still implementing it from my Fusion engine.


RE: Metroid Dread - Chris2Balls [:B] - 08-06-2012

Your engine works well, but I think you can go further than just creating another MZM engine. I mean, you did call it Metroid Dread and I've been waiting for that game for ages.
How about adding:
-sprint, like in SM
-backpedal, à la SM
-boost ball ability with slopes to test it on, boost off walls with spider ball
-transport systems for the morph ball
-the slash effect of a charged shot, à la MF
-grapple beam
-classic space jump and screw attack
-working in-game map
-anything else cool that could distinguish your engine from the others.

lolololololololololololololololo no. I want mine to be bland as possible


RE: Metroid Dread - Previous - 08-06-2012

I'm seriously not sure if you're trying to fool me or anything but I'm not in the mood for this so let me just close this and forget I've ever seen it

I don't see this thread going anywhere and you're not even trying to make the thread good and I don't know what you want so I just hope you're not having a problem with this. Have a nice day.


RE: Metroid Dread - Vipershark - 08-06-2012

i love how this guy comes in and specifically posts like a dick and then is surprised when nobody likes him


RE: Metroid Dread - Garamonde - 08-06-2012

HAHA WOW I cannot believe this dude.
Well maybe if you'd actually read the rules of this board and actually tried to do more to showcase your game (which, mind you, would have helped your game) instead of talking to a staff member like he's a total dolt then you wouldn't be having your threads locked right now. It's also funny that you're calling us elitists when you're acting like one yourself, not taking any criticism from people who actually know what they're talking about and acting like you're better than us. You're just making yourself look bad.

Don't nag me about the bullsh*t info.

You got an exe, you got screenshots, GO AT IT.

THIS IS NOT A "MODERN STYLE" GAME IN WHICH YOUR ASS IS BABIED THROUGH EVERY GODDAMN STEP.

FIGURE. IT. OUT.

THAT'S THE FUN OF IT.

IMAGINE IF YOU WERE IN A SOLO MISSION ON A HOSTILE PLANET FILLED WITH BADDIES HERE AND THERE. YOUR VISOR WOULDN'T BE THERE TO TELL YOU "Oh, go there, oh press this, oh turn around" BITCH, THIS IS CLASSIC GAMING.

DOWNLOAD IT AND SUCK A BIG DICK.

THAT IS ALL, BITCHES.
