A bit dead lately
Posted By Maurice Zarzycki on August 14, 2008
As it can be noticed the site was a bit of dead lately. That’s because my primary PC had some problems with itself. I’ve been sitting on my brother’s Notebook since then working on one project, but I am not sure when I will be able to “communicate” in regular period. It is quite pain in the butt you know? Considering there are around 20 online comicses I read regularly (ie. per day) and few people I talk to regularly which I can’t now (Sorry to all of you). The comp shall be fixed by the end of next week.
Now as for the works… As it was guessable pretty much, I was working on Mario Forever Flash all the time. Created in Flex 2 ActionScript 3.0 with FlashDevelop. To be honset, the project was really irritating at times, ActionScript is completely user-hostile, especially separating Graphics from Code. I hate lack of simple DrawAnything function without having to create separate object for it and embedding it into screen. Bleh. Anyway, the Percents look like that:
Engine: 95% - It just needs cosmetic fixes, and changes
Sound: 50% - I will have to download some Mario Sounds Pack to be able to finish it
Music: 0% - But it is not me who will prepare it, and coding it will be just a matter of minutes
Levels: 75% - Three out of four worlds are finished. And beware, third world is quite difficult - fourth will be like Hell’s Threshold.
Besides of that all I have to do is title screen, loading screen, “Created By” screens and that would be it.
Wish me luck ;). The game should be, if I am lucky, finished this week.
Can’t stand waiting!
