Roguesoft's Secret Project...
« on: December 09, 2008, 06:30:35 AM »
I've been cooking up an idea over the last few days for a fairly simple yet never before done in GM game. I'm not giving away anything until I've programmed the engine, but think along the lines of Supa Pong with fast paced button mashing. ;)

So you are making another arcade game?

Yup. ;)

Ok, more detail needed on that one. Yeah, I'm still working on it but I've hit the "Here there be boredom!" mark that slowed down QoM, so progress is slower than a snail with a hangover. Thankfully I've made a good bit of progress this week though, and to visually prove it I'm gonna post a few screenshot- ah what the heck, I'll just release the ruddy beta tonight!

The engine is nearly finished. I think it'll be under 300 LoC for the whole game. :) I think the graphics will take awhile to do, but if I'm right I'll post a video to show you guys what the gameplay is actually like.

btw, this game is a good example of what I think Eclipse Studios should be aiming at for a first project.

This secret project sounds exciting. I can't wait to see what we should aim for.
