And thank you for that lovely Super Laser Blast poster! Love it!

That explains it!

@plarpco This one might be interesting https://gameprogrammingpatterns.com/.
There is a sample here: https://gameprogrammingpatterns.com/sample.pdf

Funny. I literally just finished an Amazon search, found that book, read a comment on the amazon review that mentioned it was free to read online, looked at a few chapters, and then returned to this thread to post a link.

This looks perfect!

Sweet I have been following your progress on this game so I'll deffo take a look thanks man

Thanks, @Gothon!

@joyrider3774 cheers it's kind of thrown together maybe i'l keep the idea and tidy it up at some point.

@faz808 Line 156 change to ....gHeight()/36 .... displays Humanoid at a viewable size.

I think you want something like:

setSpriteSpeed (plr,100*c.lx,-100*c.ly)

Though 100 seems fast, but is in line with what you had.

I have to thank @Jayenkai for making this game for two reasons, first it's great fun to play and second it taught me an important lesson, being that a game does not need to have a title screen or a fancy menu. The only thing that matters is that it's fun and easy to play.

The results are in for the third weekly High Score Challenge.
This is the hall of fame for Super LASER BLAST, expert mode:

Richard - 86 Dave - 81 vinicity - 79 pianofire - 75 waldron - 71 AndyG1985 - 52 SteveZX81 - 46 PB____ - 27 DaddyJDM - 27 spikey - 11 Martin - 10 toxibunny - 7

Congratulations to Richard! He truly is a first-rate Laser Blaster! Well done!

A big thank you to everyone who participated. Stay tuned for challenge #4.

OK, that's fine - there is a known issue (IMO) if the sprites had been created a different way so I just wanted to check. As you were...

@Martin oh brilliant that was the problem, I didn't collidemap the sub, so obvious in hindsight! thank you!

what a great week to have internet issues... oh well hope everyone had a great game jam!

@albfan Fixed 👍

I just submitted an improved version of Mud Rover.
Changes include:

Clean with ZR button (my thumb was tiring out hitting both B and A) Fixed problems with mud ball shadows not being updated correctly (makes dodging less random & more skill based) Removed 'save zone' near the drain pipe (prevents game from becoming slow and dull when there isn't much solar area left and limits extra high scores better)

@vinicity said in FUZE GAMEJAM 8! 26th November - 29th November *THEME ANNOUNCED*:

Is DavevsTheTriffid still pending? I tried to download the updated version, but I only get “Project not found”?

Sorry, it was resubmitted and is back in the waiting for approval line.

Hm. I haven't gotten FUSE4 Nintendo because I missed the sale. Perhaps when I have more dollar. :( I'm quite poor after xmas and things.
Maybe that'll be this week, can't wait.

HOWEVER: It looks epic, especially for new games-coding experiences and speed of progress.

Great news! I am looking forward to it!
