PLATDUDE!!
You have to include this one, you just have to

how about an

level. I'm not that great at spriting so..., but I'll try.

Jayenkai · Sep 20, 2010

Thanks for the additionals, keep 'em coming!

For those keeping track, I still need to tweak a few things.
Levels are "More or less" working, now.. I've been playing a nice long round for the past ten minutes, totally oblivious to how long I was playing it.. (These are the reasons progress is slow!)
But as the game progresses it just kinda flickers between one mode and another.
I need to fix that, and shove great big "This Happened!!" and "That Time" and "Woo Yay!" things over the screen.. (obviously, not exactly those statements, but.. You know... roughly that!!)
Should help to space things out a bit.

I'm currently working on the "Random looking level = Normal level, Handmade level = Bonus level" way of doing things. This is so that A) you're not getting annoyed by bats, and B) you all get a chance to see your levels!

um..
Yeah, I pretty much just have to jazz things up a bit.
Shouldn't be too much longer.

\o/yeay\o/

(No vid, it'd looks about the same!)

Jayenkai · Sep 20, 2010

Geeze, I did a lot of work, since last night!

Here's a vid!

"Blippidy Beep!"

Impressive work.
What language did you code it in? o:

Jayenkai · Sep 21, 2010

As with all my games, I've used a severely out of date edition of PALib, with DevKitArm.. (DevKitArm r20, PALib June 2007)

It doesn't have all the "Modern" DS-Homebrew-Techniques, but it also seems to have no ill side effects on what I've released so far, so I'm just plodding along slapping games together, and not worrying about anything that might leap out to stop me!
..
So far so good.

This game does look awesome =D

It doesn't matter what your methods are if you produce a great product in the end!
Keep it up, and I can't wait to see a final version.

This looks freakin' awesome. I might just have to buy a new DS for this

(sister lost mine

)

swimmeringer · Sep 21, 2010

What was the music in the second video you posted? Did you make it?

jurassicplayer · Sep 22, 2010

I believe he makes most, if not all of the music he uses (and I like them xD).

Zerousen · Sep 22, 2010

It's not very good, but I have a Samus one right here

hope it helps

EDIT: Just fixed something in the image, missed some lines

If this is successful, I'm hoping for a psp version

Jayenkai · Sep 22, 2010

Your options are...
A) Hope like you've never hoped before...
or
B) Send me a PSP

'cos I still haven't found a "Three games I must buy a console for" collection, for the PSP yet.

As for the music, yes, although I'm not sure which you're counting as the 2nd video!

"JNKPlat Horizon" (temporary name) is a temporary track for an unstarted new Platdude game. I just made it 'cos I had a spare hour or two, and wasn't sure what else to do. Whether a similarly named game appears is purely co-incidental!

"IdleFish" was made YEARS ago, and was kind of a "Throw a random bunch of totally obscure samples together" mixup mashup thing. Experimental, silly, fun!

alidsl · Sep 22, 2010

Wow this looks great, also can I just download on of the pics and just paint white on it?

Pretty much...I just blanked the top and bottom with black, saved it as a template and put whatever I felt like on top (of course, I guesstimated where the 40% white 60% black was).

Jayenkai · Sep 22, 2010

No real rule for black/white ratio, but obviously a level filled with white = a completely unmovable area, so!! you know..
Draw nice, but don't go nuts!

Est. about 2 weeks to go, since I'm stuck at work over the next week, and free-time coding's a bit limited.. (bah!)

Jayenkai · Sep 26, 2010

Quicky progress report. It's getting to a "Oooh!" stage, now, with even a half-finished titlescreen appearing.

Things to do.
1. Finish titlescreen with proper menu
2. "STFU" option to turn off the music.
3. Pause button.
4. Extras

So, very very close, then!

I'll take some time to balance out the gameplay, and tweak things here and there. (Like how the bonus round has already been culled from 1 minute, to 30 seconds!)

Should be soon.

Snorlax · Sep 27, 2010

It's looking to be a fantastic game!
Keep up the hard work.
