I'm getting Flash

Probably not going to use it all that much, but anything I should know?

http://www.newgrounds.com/wiki/developer-resources/tutorials

go there. that is all.

Cool, thanks.

I WILL NOW CREATE AN EPIC FLASH GAME WITH GUNS, PLANES, AND FLYING TOFU.

AND I WILL PLAY THE SHIT OUT OF IT

plus, you'll finally get some use out of Edvar.

Edvar is going to be user of the year.

TOFU.swf!!!

Right click, open with Notepad:

"TOFU.swf!!! Tofu.jpg -----> Plane.jpg
When collide, BOOM
End"

A flying tofu with a gun shooting down planes?

We need to get medals in this.

I'll help in whatever way I can.

Make the controls Arrow keys to move and Z to shoot.

and make it a side scrolling flyer/shooter.

i'll be programmer.I got all the action script ready right here.

Code:

{When you click the left button go left};
{when you get punched it hurts};
{when you press space it shoots};

I'm debating over whether we should make the weapon switch once picked up or if we should have a storable weapon system. unlockable weapons perhaps? hmm.............

if we do make it a cyclable weapons system then X can be the cycle button, since it's close to Z

no wait I've got it

Z to cycle left X to cycle right spacebar to shoot

still arrow keys to move.

This is almost exactly what I had in mind.

perfect! should I make some transparents of the items(eg, the tofu, the planes, and the weapons) ?

I'm just really desperate to contribute to a flash

A legitamite one too, none of that spam crew stuff.

by the way, what type of music would be good for this? I mean I know you could go to the audio portal and get something but I wanna at least try to make a soundtrack for it.

Want to see what Mesog and I did in flash yesterday with TeamViewer?

I would like in on this next time please if it's cool D:

also I prefer my block of tofu but yours is animated so w/e

You can control it with the arrow keys too.

you have no borders

We threw this together in an hour.

i could tell that much

GUESS WHO JUST FIGURED OUT YOU CAN HIT THE PLAY BUTTON FOR MORE SCENES

Then how about this one?

why did you screenshot a transparent image.......? ......

other than that awesome.

Because that was a single layer of an image which has multiple layers with different stuff on it. (That screenshot was a combination of 5 layers and I was too lazy to merge them then save it.)

progress on art for TOFU.swf-

I currently have three enemy types- Airplane, Bomber plane, and UFO. each one has two recolors for Higher Difficulties or whatever

I have one block of fyling tofu for the main character

I have four weapons drawn. them being a shotgun, an uzi, a throwing star, and a fire extinguisher.

what size should the background be?
