Minigame Competition #48 FINAL VOTING TIME, No Walking No Running Final Destination

That's quite awesome

http://willhostforfood.com/?Action=download&fileid=71669


Here's a demo. Lots of stuff... 8 enemies and lots of unfinished crap.

It takes about 2 and a half minutes for all the enemies to show up, so please try it out up to that point.

Oh, and coins have no real pupose and don't regenerate yet.

also the competition ends the day after my birthday but due to timezones it'll be on my birthday

hurray

Cool.




Anyways, I'm intimidated to post another demo of my entry for fear of how much yours will overshadow it.


I guess I'll have to at some point...

I dunno if this follows the rules exactly but...

you have to hold right and release it to move, and on the final stage you also need to press up and down to fly in 3 directions. Moving backwards is not possible because it just doesn't make sense with this style of game. Press Space on the title screen to start, click on the credits to end the game at the end. Kthanxbye.

I have some confusion about the deadline, BTW. It says midnight on the 18th, but is that the 12:00 between the 17th and 18th, or the one between the 18th and 19th? The question is kinda confusing, but do you think you could just make it something like 11:59 on the intended day, just to avoid confusion?

SUPER AeRIA MARIO

It's done. Have fun!

Tap Arrows: Move
Z: Punch
X: Spin
C: Meteor
S: Blaze (when green bar is full)

Actually, I would find this a fitting tribute to MJ's death.

I'm still working on the graphics. What do you guys think?

Edit: Also, if anyone needs an idea, the Loco Rider minigame in Locoroco 2 is a perfect example of this style of game.

eating up that bush (no pun intended)

Fat Weegees Plz has been updated.

YAY

Quick engine test of Luigi's Boot Bounce.

Arrow keys change your direction, Up Arrow makes you bounce a small distance, Shift key make you bounce a bit farther, and holding the Control key while doing the latter makes you bounce very far.

I might actually enter this.

HOWEVER... I have a question:

My idea is powerups fall from the sky, giving you a different mode of mobility, however you'll move on your own.

Example:
Propeller suit takes you into the air, where you have to spam buttons to go up or down.
Blue shell makes you spin fast to the left automatically, you have to press a certain button to jump.

These buttons I am mentioning, switch to give the game more challenge. Of course, it tells you what button to press. Not pressing the said button in time, you die.

Would this be allowed?

I'm kinda worried about allowing the shell one after what I had disallowed earlier about "automatic movement", but at the same time having to do that to so many earlier makes me want to just say it's okay because it's a temporary powerup. Assuming that you don't just hold left and right to wander around before or while you have the powerups. If you do, then it wouldn't be allowed, no matter how much the powerups add to the standard controls.

In other words, moving left/right via traditional controls isn't allowed even with those powerups, but I'd let what you described of the example powerups by.

Yoshbert, your controls annoy me. They're really hard to use.

Quick test for my entry

Since this is the first minigame comp I've ever even THOUGHT about entering, I want to know if this is any good.

NOTE: Nothing happens after you get the blue shell.

EDIT: Forgot to ask, after playing this, does it pertain to all the compo's rules?

I'm going to say yes... though I hope later on you'll note whatever it is that says if Mario flies up or down, at this point in the beta I seem to do well until I end up flying straight into a Bullet Bill, and the key chosen doesn't seem to decide which way either. Then again maybe you intended for people to wait till there aren't any in the way at all before pushing, though I could see a possible unwinnable situation or two happening there.

Or maybe that part's just not finished yet.

Besides that, I did like what little I could play there.

Well, I have managed to finish the stage. (You need about 620 points before the next powerup falls)

And I used a simple y position check to determine whether Mario goes up or down.
(If you're lower on the screen, you go up. However, if you're high enough, you go down.)

Maybe I'll change that system later, but for now it'll stay that way.

Hey guys. I have some screens of my entry so far:


The problem is, I'm having some problems choosing enemies. They could be different guys, or they could be recolors of the player's allies, but I don't know which to choose...
