[XP]The Collector

[Polraudio 122]

By: Polraudio

 

Most of you don't know this game because it was under development but all my friends know it exist because they tested it and you know who you are.

 

Anyways this game is very fun even for someone who created it.

This game is kind of like Pac-Man except you collect objects within a certain amount of time. There are 3 different modes for you to adjust to the game. Easy, Normal, Perfect. The easier the difficulty the more time you get in each round but you get to select a difficulty before entering a level. Each stage was tested at least 50 times so times are right on.

 

Now for everyone's favorite part, some screenshots

Not very many because i don't want ruin the fun.

Title is subjected to change.

 

Character Selection Room. Every character added soon.

 

Level 1

 

 

DOWNLOAD DEMO v1.1:

http://www.box.net/shared/ptal3kvfac

Features 4 Levels right now.

 

Enjoy the demo :D

And also enjoy opening up the project in RMXP to see what makes it tick.

Awesome game :D . I got to play as Kiriashi. Anyway, I remember seeing some things for Zadune Games, such as your Interactive Title Screen and was wondering if I could join. If you need help with eventing systems or really hard events I can help :D .

[ShinyToyGuns 29]

I'm a lozer :( (btw, you spelt that wrong)

 

Also, on a technical note, I don't really like the typing of save names and whatnot...takes forever just to type one character... :huh:

If you want to. We need some event systems made.

What do you mean?

You just use the keyboard like im typing now. Better than using the arrow keys and hitting enter.

I know its spelled wrong. I made it a Z on purpose.

 

 

 

Lots more coming out once i get the time this weekend to make more levels and fix a few things.

If you have any ideas feel free to hit me with them and if they are used well welcome to the credits.

[Tomo2000 60]

Awesome, thanks. What kind of eventing systems do you need? Also, if I am to have a character I would like it to be this:

 

 

Recolored to my liking :D . Anyway, here are some glitches I found:

 

^ Nisages name is screwed up.

 

^ Myself is meant to be 1 word.

 

^ Suggestions have 2 g's, not a j.

[Polraudio 122]

Well if you look in the pictures you will see a story by formlesstree4. I need a system that will allow the player to read the book.

[Tomo2000 60]

Hmm... I made the same kind of event for one of my old games. It is a little hard. I'll need some better graphics for it, however. I'll see what I can do them PM you a link to the demo. Also, I'm editting my character a bit so that he looks more evil and sinister :D .

[ShinyToyGuns 29]

I know its spelled wrong. I made it a Z on purpose.

 

I mean, like, when I try typing, I have to press the key several times before it actually shows up just once...

[Polraudio 122]

Works fine for me Shiny.

If anyone else has the same problem let me know.

 

Ok thanks Tomo. Looks like you just made the Zadune Games team. Welcome.

We do not provide health insurance.

[Tomo2000 60]

Yay... wait... no Health Insurance!? I cannot work under these conditions!!! Grab my resume, Jephery, we are leaving! Lol, just kidding. Anyway, here is my new character. Did some editting on paint. Here it is:

 

 

I'm working on the system. Last thing I need to do is fix a few things in the graphics department and I should be finished :D . Quite simple, actually.

You did that on PAINT? That's epic!

 

To stay on topic: really neat little game you made, Pol...I got through the first 3 levels after I figured out why I was a lozer on the first one (I was missing the flower behind the tree :P) Good job. :D

 

:5:

[Polraudio 122]

Tomo i will add you to the staff list tonight.

 

If you wish to make levels for The Collector we will be more than happy to accept. here is a template.

 

The only thing you need to do is make sure the player cant pass through the top 6 tiles down because the HUD will get in the way if they do.

[Kiriashi 117]

As the mapper, I obviously have a job to do. xD

 

Polraudio, PM the absolute (or if you have not made any edits at all, I will use this one) latest versions so I can spiffy some maps for you.

[Polraudio 122]

You can use this one. I haven't made any edits yet.

Note that level 5 might be moved down to lvl 10 because its very complex and might take 100 tries to get the time right.

[Tomo2000 60]

Ah. Very clever design. I'd love to make one for the swamp :D . The swamp is my favourite tileset. And yes, ShinyToyGuns, I took the thief, got rid of his legs, recoloured him a very dark shade of black, and added the red inscriptions and the hole in his back all on paint.

 

Edit: Damn, theres already a swamp one. Also, I had an idea. For each staff member they each get there own level.

 

Edit 2: Found a heap more grammar glitches. Here are some:

 

^ You should probally add a comma here.

 

^ P.S. should be in capitals.

 

^ It should be "it's" instead of "its". You need to comma between the t and s.

 

^ Instead of "off of", just use "on" instead. Sounds a bit better, too.

 

^ What is says here makes it sound like only Zadune Staff Members can get into this area. Maybe, instead, it should say "The following Characters represent Zadune Staff Members".

 

^ Get rid of 1 l for Crystal.

 

Thats all for now :D . Oh, yeah, I should be able to have a working version of the Help System soon. Just tell me what it should say. It will include controls, the HUD, and some other stuff.

[Polraudio 122]

Thanks for pointing out the errors Tomo i will have them fixed as soon as i can.

Also the help system will be all script based. Its going to include help along with your save name and have lots of pictures(Maybe).

But if you can do it with events go for it.

[Tomo2000 60]

Too easy. And I have finally finished the Book System. It required some scripting and will take a while to get a hang of so maybe, whenever you add a new page, you tell me and I'll fix up the system. It is very complex; features 2 scripts (originally used in Hope Afloat; not my own, however. Can't remember who made it) and will require a new script for each page. Also, it requires a new folder. Anyhow, I'll PM you the link right away. Enjoy. If you need my to add anything just say so.

 

I'll get to work on the help file ASAP.

Props on the new system Tomo. I should help out again and learn RGSS...I self taught VB.net to myself, how hard could RGSS be???

Or I could stick to level design (I think I designed level 5...)

yea you designed Level 5 but im bumping it up to Level 10 or higher due to difficulty. Dont want the level hill to steep. This game is going to have anywhere from 100-??? Levels.

RGSS is not all that hard to learn

[Tomo2000 60]

Pol, I've been trying to add the Help System but, currently, I havn't been able to make it accept the button 1. Also, have you been able to view the Story/Page System thingo?

[Polraudio 122]

You would use this in a conditional branch script

Kboard.keyboard($R_Key_1)

 

I looked over it and it looks a little confusing. The story is all picture based and no text is involved.

[Tomo2000 60]

Ok, thanks. Also, I found 1 more glitch;

 

^ This is meant to be lvl 4.

 

Also, when will a new version be released? Any ideas?

[Polraudio 122]

Maybe after Monday or some time next week. Have lots of school work this week.

[Polraudio 122]

New things.

 

Old Title

 

New Awesome looking title.

 

I been working on rewriting my scripts and remaking my images for TC.

The new images will be more modern look and have a better appeal.

 

The scripts will have some added content that can be changed from the options menu.

EX: You can change the Opacity of the HUD along with new HUD colors and styles. Also change the windowskin.

 

Let me know what you think of the new title and if my new features to come are good.

[formlesstree4 18]

Nice title there man.

I'll also be designing new levels for you once I reinstall RPG Maker XP, so I'll get ya on MSN.
