I have uploaded a very small demo of my new PC JSW game.
It is more of a JSW inspired game than an exact engine copy.
That's Dans department :)I have decided to keep it a scrolling game as my first game was but
the game engine is a much closer match to the original than the basic hap hazard attempt at a platform engine of A Very Willy Christmas.
( which was not a bad attempt for my first ever try at making a
game :) )There is a very small area intact with
ramps,softs,solids,convayors,bads and objects.
The basic engine is complete ( no doubt with a few glitches ).It is just a matter of building the game now and maby a few engine
tweaks if bugs are found, which I would apreciate you commenting on.If I do a piece a day, I could have it done in a couple of weeks.
I plan to add custom features to try and make it that little bit
different.( one of which I have incorperated already ;) ).You can find the file under JSWtest.zip in the files section.
Cheers.
Scott.
I've had a bit of a play with it and found it to be excellent :)
The scrolling adds a new dimension to it and reminds me of JSW2 on
the amiga.
I like the light switch idea too. There was one glitch I came across,
and that was when I jumped into the wall, I fell through the floor
beneath me. The way it plays is pretty faithful to the original too.
I'd like to see more :)
