Boss Pong

[AlucardX60]

ZOMG ANOTHER PONG RIP-OFF!? Yep. My first game so I wanted to start with something easy. And what could possible be easier then pong. I mean there's a reason it was the first game on a home system right?

anyway play demo. EDIT: Lol forgot Demo link. http://www.sendspace.com/file/nri3s5

Known Errors: (so stop telling me it's not working)

1) if the ball hits the very edge of a paddle it will be stuck playing the hit sound and doing nothing.

SOLUTION: Exit game.

If you find other errors let me know.

Features that will be added: (you know... eventually...)

Power-ups

Difficulty levels (assuming I can make a better AI for the Boss Paddle)

Cheats (mebbe)

---

Feel free to help out in any way liek by making better graphics and shiz.

try this for the game

Code: Select all

dir = point_direction(x,y,otherobject.x,otherobject.y)
y += lengthdir_y(speedhere,dir)
// with x position, change  the above line with this; x += lengthdir_x(speedhere,dir)
// this also slows down as the object draws closer, but speeds up when its farther away in some cases.
