Phantasma Ludus: Chicken Games 4.00

[Makio-Kuta]

I was thinking you meant playing the updated one... XD


maybe I should add Makio as some kind of special character in a unstress mode or something... maybe an endless chicken punching mode...

*o* cameo

 

[Engr. Adiktuzmiko]

or maybe even a punch bear cameo, where you punch actual bears with an ad to try the actual Punch Bears... XD...


EDIT: HAHA!!! I've been able to make the sprite "equip" script... XD... I can now add any sprite into an existing character (actors only for now) in-game... XD...


Here's a sample... Shana "equipped" with Makio's Chicken Hat + Gilga (Yes I tried "equipping" a whole sprite into another sprite)... Gilga is equipped as a "body" and the hat obviously as a "hat", which is why it's above the two other sprites...





Also, I've started trying out power-up ideas... So far, they are overpowered (well I tried a tri-layer fire for a full game, and realized that unless I literally want to lose, I won't)... need to balance things out...

Progress Update Bump!


So, I realized FPS was dropping to about half during the toasters so I went on to optimize the projectile script more and more... And poof! It doesn't drop FPS now... Yey!!!


Next things on the list:


- Try power-up ideas and implement


- Add a couple more hat goodies, and possibly other extra goodies too


- Game modes for the thunderbirds


PS: there is a screenie on the post above... XD


EDIT 2: Updated the OP with screenies from the upcoming Version 2.0

 

[Engr. Adiktuzmiko]

Progress Update Bump!


There is now 2 foods (power-ups), both usable in Chicken Toaster normal and EX modes... 1 keypress is all you need to use them... I'm still balancing the price though...


Also now working on one of the Thunderbird modes...


Plus reworking (again) the collision algorithm for the projectiles to make it more accurate (not that it's really needed, but I like to keep it optimized), especially for larger sprites...


So Version 2.0's release is getting closer and closer...

Good news man, I'm keeping an eye on this one, it's getting more and more interesting.

Also if you implement bears in someway, you will totally get my approval...I mean, I'm one of the three mighty bear punchers, I can't miss this opportunity.

 

[Engr. Adiktuzmiko]

I might add a bear as some kinda "stress ball" in tribute to Punch Bears... I just still haven't finalized it yet...

 

[Alkorri]

No! No bears! This must be all chickens! Feathers rulz!

 

[Engr. Adiktuzmiko]

I never said bears, only bear... and oh, don't worry, it will be an exclusive content only for "VIPs"

 

[Alkorri]

How about giving choices for a variety of birds? :> Ducks, peacocks... or wait, then it wouldnt be called Chicken Games, would it?

 

[Engr. Adiktuzmiko]

Well, there would be a "bird" actually, let's just call it a flying chicken... but no, no peacocks or ducks or any other from the family...

 

[SomaelCK]

Oh pretty neat! Kinda reminds me of my own Dinner Run game

 

[Engr. Adiktuzmiko]

Another screenie from the upcoming update:

Also, I made a video while I was making it...
 

 

[Engr. Adiktuzmiko]

Okay... just need to do 1 more mode... then it's released... XD...


Here's another screenie for the new mode:

 

[Engr. Adiktuzmiko]

Update! Chicken Games version 2.0 is now out!!! Check the first post for details and downloads


PS: Updated download, fixed a bug with the data management script... still version 2.0 coz I don't feel like making that as a patch itself...


Next updates will be released in both full version (for those who don't have older versions) and patch versions (for those already with older versions)

 

[Makio-Kuta]

Oh I missed this. I'll have to check it out after work :>

 

[Engr. Adiktuzmiko]

I hope you find the additions nice.

 

[Anruth]

Hi there, Engr. Shana.

Chicken Games looks really cute. I'll have to check it out this weekend.

Just scanning the topic, I see you mention game patches for peeps that own the older version. 

You can do game patches/updates with RPG Maker games! Thats Awesome.

 

[Engr. Adiktuzmiko]

Well technically you can, but depending on how you set-up the game, it can be hard or easy. There are patch scripts out there though I haven't tried any of those, but mostly, you need to determine already at the start if you wanna make patches or not.


As for me, I'm just updating files that need to be updated and adding files that needs to be added. no scripts or whatever.


Thanks for the interest in this, I hope you do find it fun. If you do, tell your friends about it too, that will help a lot.


@Makio - check out the VIP area


EDIT: Added a game manual, check it out on the first page

 

[Engr. Adiktuzmiko]

Next feature in line for the next version/patch would be achievements... I don't know when I can start on it though. XD
