It's coming along nicely! Great stuff!

Kat

Amazing as always!

Dave

@SteveZX81 this is some top-notch work mate. Can't wait to see the finished game and play it - brilliantly executed idea man!

Amazing as always!

Kat, I cringe when I get a notification from you lol. The first thing that goes into my head is "omg, she must die inside when she sees my graphics"

Kat

Psssh, absolutely not, Steve!

Martin

@SteveZX81 you need to have some confidence and stop putting yourself down. This is good work. No question.

SteveZX81

Working on the sinks sinking anims and explosions (sadly I simply cannot create a 'decent' explosion so I've nicked an asset one. yes I feel ashamed!)

Dave

That's what the hundred-odd explosion assets are there for, @SteveZX81 :)

Looks fantastic. I bet it will be very satisfying to play!

SteveZX81

I know mate but I like doing my own stuff. (yes, I'm crazy ;))

SteveZX81

Minor update. been spending a lot of time trying to tidy and sort out my horrible code, before I start adding new stuff.

removed the old animated torpedo display. I didn't feel it fit the game

added a new torpedo display panel and created a custom font (sadly my art style sucks so it's the best I could do)

Thanks to Pianofire for the custom font code!

SteveZX81

Another update. seems small but I quite like it. The torpedo display is now working when you fire.

also, if I'm spamming to much here, just give me the nod and I'll cut it down ;)

SteveZX81

Update:

Some sound effects added
ships can now be hit and sunk
torpedo trails shorten and fade with distance

@SteveZX81 What are those cargo ships carrying?

SteveZX81

I've no idea. (actually they are supposed to be tankers but I can't draw. lol)

DomDom

Can they shoot back?

SteveZX81

Tankers cannot but other ships will be able to attack you and also aircraft will drop depthcharges etc.

DomDom

@SteveZX81 Sink one for me.

SteveZX81

Working on the ship sinking animations right now.

This is barely worth mentioning tbh but I'm using it as an excuse to post so I can give a huge "Thank You!" to Pianofire and Martin for helping me with a problem that drove me batty! (I still actually don't know what the problem was, but it's working now so all is well).

Thanks guys!

SteveZX81

Small update:

all ships now sink when hit (including the hospital ship ..but there is a penalty)
score added
ships sunk added
torpedos left display added

Kat

Amazing! Such lovely animations and all the added details are great! :D
