I just checked out the game in albino black sheep you talked about. The concept for my game is in fact from the 2d version called falldown. But I've never seen the version made in flash. I've gotten the idea from a graphing calculator game also called "Falldown", which is equivalent to Falldown2 on albino black sheep.

Got to agree with you

. I find one problem with it and that is that It's so addictive.

RE: Try this game I made :p by Tourist on 04-13-2005 at 02:35 PM

RE: Try this game I made :p by Tasha on 04-13-2005 at 02:40 PM

RE: Try this game I made :p by brian on 04-14-2005 at 02:51 AM

Fun game, except that tell your teachers about DirectX, it is way more powerful, and has a better potential.

No it isn't: they actually are very evenly matched in power and capability.

Edit: Looking good! Thing is, I'm really quite poor at it...
* RaceProUK hides before people ask about his score

And I think shadows need to be implemented.

RE: Try this game I made :p by Exca on 04-14-2005 at 06:29 PM

I've considered about that before. But the Highscore would only be stored on the individual computer and not shared with everyone else. Otherwise I would have to set up a highscore server (which I wont for sure). Maybe I will implement a local highscore system like minesweeper etc.

Yup. Shadow will definitely be implemented to show where the cube will land when it's falling

After trying the game on different computers and from responses of people, I found that the game will lag quite a bit to unplayability on slower video cards. I also heard that the game somehow runs faster than normal on some machines (which shouldn't happen). This may cause the game to be harder for some people. I'm still trying to find out what is causing the game to run faster on some comp...

The score is implemented by 1 everytime you drop through a hole. However there is a five points bonus for each drop that is close to the top of the screen (when the platform is very high) or near the very bottom of the screen (when the platform is very low). I think that this system isn't the best system in the world, so it will probably be replaced later...

Thanks again for everyone's support ^^

RE: Try this game I made :p by x-Stalker-x on 04-15-2005 at 03:03 PM

like its a awsome game but its a bit hard to tell where the block is going on the square with the holes in it.... (complex words there)
i fully suck at it

RE: Try this game I made :p by .Roy on 04-15-2005 at 03:12 PM

good job!

maybe u can slow it down

RE: Try this game I made :p by Chris4 on 04-16-2005 at 04:26 AM

Great game. Very hard

Ya thats what i said too

U should have kinda difficulty levels.
Hardest being the fastest and giving more points

RE: Try this game I made :p by 3DCS on 04-17-2005 at 03:05 PM

Very good job on this game ^_^
I had a thought tho to maybe make the square move on a grid so it won't be half way on the edge of the hole and end up getting stuck, maybe impliment that for a different skill level or something...
Just make sure your teacher doesn't sell it for military war games involving sewers and falling midgets.

RE: Try this game I made :p by Odium696 on 04-17-2005 at 05:15 PM

Very nice and simple game.
Keep up the good work!

PS. Need the shadows!!!!

got 199....

I wanted 200 or more!!!

in the second time i got the score of 1112 and the game was still running but i did not have the time at that moment.. so i just closed the game.. otherwise i could do more 1112 ....

* Shezi is good in games like this one...

RE: Try this game I made :p by mwe99 on 04-17-2005 at 07:59 PM

how about a difficulty option? like easy, medium, hard (already been suggested but i do recommend this)

Good luck with the project (Y)

RE: Try this game I made :p by Zerius on 04-23-2005 at 06:14 AM

Oh my! You'd better hurry up and tell ID then! Imagine how cool Doom IV would be with DirectX! What power and potential!

RE: Try this game I made :p by Chris4 on 04-25-2005 at 12:45 PM

Good game. I come no where near the scores people are saying they've reached though

RE: Try this game I made :p by .Roy on 04-25-2005 at 12:59 PM

how do the point system work?

Sometimes i get 6 in the first drop and sometimes i get one. Plus sometimes when i step over an open block for sure. It still gos over and i have to step on it agian.

RE: Try this game I made :p by a.dam on 04-30-2005 at 05:21 AM

1501. I don't care if you're just stupid and can't believe it.

And the only thing i know about the scoring is that if you're near the top and go down you get 6 and if you're fast and stay at the bottom you get 6. When you're anywhere else you get 1.

RE: Try this game I made :p by czd on 11-11-2005 at 12:23 AM

Ahh, Good job Dixon on improving the game, whatever happened to the rotating concept you were working on last year? I had a higher score than all of you, 965 last year, when it was still in development!
