[Blood-Pigggy]

That's a bland shot of the courtyard.
I'm busy adding Gargoyles and other fancy supplements.
P.S. Thanks for the Manual Blast, also what do you think of the shot?

[blastradius14]

You betcha its gonna rock!

The skirmish mode alone will be more than reason for anyone to play this game :ok:

[Fawfulhasfury]

Heck yeh! Booyah! :D

[blastradius14]

The pic looks awesome :ok:

[Blood-Pigggy]

I'm sad.
No one wants to play the Story Mode?

[Fawfulhasfury]

I actually would prefer sotyr mode. As I have said, I prefer a game with a good story. :D Can't wait man.

[blastradius14]

That is the best part of someone elses work, of course I would play it :w00t:

It's rude not to.

[Blood-Pigggy]

LOL okay, I wasn't really sad, I was just concerned no one mentions it.

I need a suggestion, would it be a good idea to have to arenas to fight in with the Tech Demo?
The plus is two arenas, but the downside is a longer wait for the demo.
P.S. I'm gonna hit the sack now.

[blastradius14]

The Tech demo is going to have effective multiplayer? Is it TCP/IP or similar routable or is it IPX (non-routable)?

[Danny252]

I doubt the first release will have multi..
how would you do multi? player vs player or players vs monsters?
or players vs players vs monsters ^_^

[Blood-Pigggy]

Prolly only multiplayer there will ever be is two people at the same keyboard.
Where did I say there was multiplayer?
I said who wants to arenas to fight the monstahs in?

[troop18546]

Wow, so much progress done. The game should rock.

[Blood-Pigggy]

Thanks Troop.
Another screeny.

-Some pillars I added to the Courtyard

These look perfekt. Why not add some clouds and a moon to the sky? They don't have to move, just for the main view. Some creepyness ya'know. And maybe some blood splattered on the road and on these pillars? :blink:

[Blood-Pigggy]

Yep, I'm actually working on the moon right now!
Jeeze, you is pyschic man...
Blood is on it's way, so are a few paved stones, as for blood, I hold that off until I'm done with most of the stuff, just like I did with the zombie.

[troop18546]

Ofcourse, set the whole place up :angel: ... wait while everything is in shape :angel: ... while it all seems so calm :whistle: :yawn: ...
THEN SPLATTER IT WITH BLOOOOOOOOOD!!!!!!!!! :evil:

[Blood-Pigggy]

LOL.
The zombie is going to be off guard, he'll be like -
"WTF is happening?"

I'm already "WTF". :eeeeeh:
Off guard... what... he robbing a bank or smth? :blink:
*doesnt get the whole idea...*

[Blood-Pigggy]

No, I think you'd be surprised if the scenery around started to become drenched in blood.

[Blood-Pigggy]

New screeny
Sexy moon!
http://img133.imageshack.us/img133/2601/shot38lh.png (http://imageshack.us)

Moon baby, I'd show you my dark side anyday.

[troop18546]

Nice :ok: , but make the sky very cloudy. This is supposed to be a SCARY game. Oh well, maybe just gory and whateva.

[Blood-Pigggy]

There are like two clouds floating in the air other than those by the moon.
The clouds slowly pass over the screen.

Cool. But the whole sky is a bit too bright. Maybe you could make it darker?
P.S. Whatv about the enemies A.I.? They morons or smarter? :blink:

[Fawfulhasfury]

We don't want a spongebob zombiepants or anything. LOL

[Blood-Pigggy]

It's a freakin' zombie, do you expect it to be intelligent?
To plus that, I made these zombies blind, if you make noise they'll go in the direction you are.

An easy beggining enemy.
I'll make the sky darker, but it's not supposed to be complete night time.

A supereasy foe.
O.K. when you make it darker and bla bla bla other muck, post a screen.

[Blood-Pigggy]

Ok, here's a semi-completed Courtyard, darker sky and all, I didn't bother adding blood yet, I'll make a different screeny when that's done.

http://img178.imageshack.us/img178/8646/shot40ty.th.png (http://img178.imageshack.us/my.php?image=shot40ty.png)

It's a thumbnail, the original pic is too big to put here.
Quality is also kinda blegh, but whatever.

[troop18546]

Not bad. :ok:
A few questionz if you will:
More clouds?
Is the main character a one-handed freak?

[Blood-Pigggy]

Yes.
If anyone asks that question again I will beat them.

[Blood-Pigggy]

Ok, here's a detailed sky shot.

Then how does he fight the guys from the left? LOL
Hope his img flips when fighting the other side or smth.

[Blood-Pigggy]

No, he turns around and hits them.

[Blood-Pigggy]

More clouds?
Does this look better?
http://img287.imageshack.us/img287/1783/shot62jn.png (http://imageshack.us)

Note that they'll all be moving ingame.

[troop18546]

Nice idea. He a telepathic dude also? :D

Some of the clouds could be lower. More realistic. :ok:

[Danny252]

why is there a cloud behind the moon? that is one high up cloud.

[Blood-Pigggy]

Because it looks pretty and it's also a unrealistic game which doesn't take place on earth.

[Fawfulhasfury]

I like that screen a lot, but one thing is bugging me. I think that the moon should be a lot bigger. More menacing. Just a thought. It might make things scarier. Another thing might be to add some spooky dead tree silouettes in the background. Mayeb even some fog. But these are just suggestions, you don't have to listen to them. Just a thought is all. :) But I really like how the game looks so far. I think you are doing a great job. I can't wait to play this. :w00t:

[Blood-Pigggy]

I hope everyone realize stuff like this takes a long time.

If that moon were any bigger it would take me an hour to make it.

[Blood-Pigggy]

Redesigned Courtyard, give me your input
http://img118.imageshack.us/img118/7935/shot75qy.png (http://imageshack.us)

[Fawfulhasfury]

I know, thats why I said you don't have to listen to my suggestions. :P BTW If you ever need my advice or help with anything art related let me know. :) I don't think you'll need any help though. You are doing extremely well for one of your first games. :)

EDIT: The courtyard is fantastic! It rocks! Forget changing anything that doesn't need changing! Man, that pwns. :w00t:

[Blood-Pigggy]

Hearing that satisfies me just as much as moving my kneecap in weird directions, which is alot.
I'm going to weird out the courtyard a little more (see above pic).

[Fawfulhasfury]

Can't wait. :D

[troop18546]

Cooler than before, waiting like hell for the new game. :D

[Blood-Pigggy]

Here's a somewhat completed courtyard.
Whoo!
http://img247.imageshack.us/img247/5208/shot82xg.png (http://imageshack.us)

[troop18546]

Nice. :D Maybe you can show us a scene where you slice the zombie?

[Blood-Pigggy]

I'm working on his first death anim now.

[Fawfulhasfury]

Wow! Thats bg rocks! I love the texture you've put on the brick walkway and grass, and how you've managed to splatter blood here and there without ruining the picture. It's really neat. :ok:

[Blood-Pigggy]

Believe it or not, that took very little time to do, just a few dabs in the red palette and I was done.
Of course I was trying to make the blood look right tho'.

[troop18546]

We're all waiting for this with our hands open.

[Blood-Pigggy]

Hands open huwah?

By the way, making the gore when the zombie gets sliced in tween all the way down is takin foeva!

[troop18546]

Just MAKE it. Also, what happens to the char. when HE gets knocked off?

[Blood-Pigggy]

Blood pours of out every freakin hole in the clothing and afterwards his clothing drift to the ground.

[troop18546]

Cooel. :evil:
Hurry up, hurry up... :tai:

[blastradius14]

Like a wraith? Then he is slightly weaker than Vhailor :sneaky:

For having the zombies fall down I would use Paint's ability to rotate stuff. That is, if you aren't all ready doing so.

[Blood-Pigggy]

Blast did you see all the screenshots I posted?
Whaddya think?

I'm trying to, but so far I've done 3 frames, which means I'm 35 percent done with the anim.

[blastradius14]

The screenshots look BLOOOOODDDDYYYY AWESOME!
:Brain: :Brain: :Brain:

Really. Go :Titan: on some zombies :ok:

[Shunk Eat Enemy]

thats awsome i like all the blood on everything hehe

:kosta: i noticed your zombie looks like my avatar LOL

[blastradius14]

Your avvie isn't bloody enough LOL

[Shunk Eat Enemy]

i just noticed his zombie has cave man eyebrows mine doesnt LOL

but it looks very promising i just hope theres hoards of monsters instead of that just one

[blastradius14]

Eventually I am sure there will be, but zombies alone take a lot of work.

[Blood-Pigggy]

Whoa, sorry for the huge pause.
But I hadn't eaten since dinner time last night and had to get some nutrition.

Okay, currently, I met a huge roadblock.
It isn't really a problem, I just need to move a few things, change some triggers, and it'll be done.

But don't expect new screens instantly.

[Blood-Pigggy]

You know that big roadblock?

Um, it took me about five minutes to fix it, so nevermind.

[blastradius14]

Ha. Roadblocks are nothing to a TANK :D


What's the next monster animation you are going to make?

[Blood-Pigggy]

Wait, here it is!
ZOMBIE DEATH ANIMATION 1!
http://img315.imageshack.us/img315/5307/shot93lp.png (http://imageshack.us)

Take that you fruit cake!

[Fawfulhasfury]

Whoa! Now that is some major gore! :omg: Good job. :ok:

[blastradius14]

AHAHAHAHHAHAHAHA! Sweet! :Brain:

[troop18546]

Hats off. :Brain:

[blastradius14]

Blood pigggy has made an uber graphic. I could compile a movie scene out of it, one going fast but looking like crap, the other slow :D

[Blood-Pigggy]

Eh, I don't think we should make another GIF.
This one only looks good ingame (looks like complete crap when I'm going to the anim editor).
It looks fantastic ingame tho'.

[blastradius14]

LOL
Well, I said it would.

If everyone had BamWorkshop it wouldn't look so bad. The BAM version of it keeps the color quality. To make the picture sizes smaller, use jpeg instead of bmp, then load it in there. The download link is this:http://www.clandlan.net/download.php?file=fwmirror/bamworkshop2.zip.

Now they won't look so much like crap to everyone :ok:

[Blood-Pigggy]

Well, now I'm looking for MIDI music, so there's something to listen to.

[blastradius14]

Check out the before said post. You are surely going to find some good stuff there :ok:

[Blood-Pigggy]

Oh.

Still, anyone who has any good MIDI music should put it up, I'm open to anything.

[Blood-Pigggy]

Er, can you post that link again?

[blastradius14]

Nerologic.com, under Music tab.

[Blood-Pigggy]

For the heck off it...
CARNAGE!
http://img277.imageshack.us/img277/6463/shot106zs.png (http://imageshack.us)

[blastradius14]

Muwahahahah. Does he say "Yield!" when he whacks them?

[Blood-Pigggy]

Eh, I haven't put in anything like that yet.

[blastradius14]

The SPC sounds can be converted to midi using this file I found.

Of course, at Nerologic you can get the SNESamp for winamp to play them as you would hear them in your SNES.

Now you can check out a SNES music of choice and convert it to midi.

[Blood-Pigggy]

ARGH! I can't find any good MIDI music!

[blastradius14]

I'm sure one of those games has something you want from it, but good luck finding the perfect song LOL

[Blood-Pigggy]

Damnit, I've listened to every single thing!
Aaah!

[Blood-Pigggy]

YES! I've found the perfect music!
Listen to this!

Eternal Darkness Final Boss Theme (http://www.vgmusic.com/music/console/nintendo/gamecube/Eternal_Darkness_Final_Boss.mid)

Not to mention that I adore the game it came from.

[blastradius14]

LOL

It must love you more than me :whistle:

[Blood-Pigggy]

What? What do you mean?

[blastradius14]

You've looked through all of these?
http://www.snesmusic.org/spcsets/


It says I can't reach the file man :angry:

[Blood-Pigggy]

That's weird for you, I found a nice site I'm looking through right now.
Listen to this. (http://gamemusic.emugaming.com/music/PC/Age%20of%20Empires/Music%204.MIDI)

[blastradius14]

That's better.

May just be my crap ISP. Stupid local cable :bleh:

[Blood-Pigggy]

Yeah, it does work for me, listening to music from Descent now.

[blastradius14]

Although repetitave, most music from games is that way :ok:

I like descent, it had decent music :D

[Blood-Pigggy]

Mmm, listening to stuff from Terranigma now.
Pretty boring stuff.

[Blood-Pigggy]

Haha, found the perfect music after all, it fits perfectly.
Here's an attachment if thou wants to listen.

[blastradius14]

Where'd that one come from? Sounds spiffy.

[Blood-Pigggy]

Soul Caliber 2, great fighting game.
I'm busy making a big gargoyle that's in the middle of the Courtyard, you can jump on it to keep you safe from the zombies that'll be massing below.

[Shunk Eat Enemy]

to your zombie splitting in half i say :kosta: :Brain: :w00t: :tai: (censored) AWSOME

thats just :sick: hehehe

[Danny252]

dammit, if only I had an mp3 to midi converter. hmfies.

[Blood-Pigggy]

Yes, I too think that little pink I put in there works.
It turned out much better than I thought it would.

[blastradius14]

Check your email pigggy. Transcendency is complete :ok:

[Blood-Pigggy]

Here's a shot of the finished Gargoyle (Thank you Blast)

http://img179.imageshack.us/img179/6643/shot115mw.png (http://imageshack.us)

:bleh: You can't get me! Stupid little zombies.

[blastradius14]

Do they spawn? It would be funny if someone left the game running and there were like 30 of them down there :D

[Blood-Pigggy]

LOL, I'll make a trigger that they spawn every now and then.
Right now I'm trying to add a few things so I can get to the more grunt stuff.
Animations and weapons.

[troop18546]

Maybe you can give us a demo tomorrow or smth, cause I really want to make'em bleed in "Bleed". :D

[Blood-Pigggy]

Tommorow?
Wow Troop, you're really impatient, what day is to today?
Tuesday...
Well I can probably post a release date for the end of the week.
I'm working on this night and day!

[blastradius14]

He isn't a company troop :D

If you rush perfection, it sucks :sneaky:

[troop18546]

Alright already, just do it. End of the week? Fine.

[Blood-Pigggy]

LOL.
Just keep a look out.
And don't be so down, it'll be out soon.

[Toxik]

What about putting less blood(i know :tomato: )
but at least the path-i think it should be plain just with some blood flowing between the stones not blood-smeared all over it doesnt even look too much like a blood then

[troop18546]

I thought so too, but what the heck, it goes by the name.

[Blood-Pigggy]

I agree,
So I changed it to this?
Any better?
http://img286.imageshack.us/img286/7467/shot122ic.png (http://imageshack.us)

[Toxik]

thats what i meant :ok:

[Blood-Pigggy]

Yay!
Good news for those looking forward to the guns.
I've started work on the pistol.

[Toxik]

futuristic look maybe?

[Blood-Pigggy]

I think it looks more like one of those old western guns painted black, see for yourself
http://img338.imageshack.us/img338/7268/shot139dt.png (http://imageshack.us)

[blastradius14]

Did my gun gallery help any thoughts?

[Blood-Pigggy]

It's a bit futuristic, but I did get an idea for the Microwave Gun.

[Blood-Pigggy]

Troop!
I need you to get pistol sounds from Doom 3 please!

[Toxik]

i might be annoying but the gun..it could be bit larger,heavier,more massive

[Blood-Pigggy]

It's a pistol, you'll get a lot bigger weapons.
Besides, it looks fine ingame.

[blastradius14]

Yeah, the microwave gun will be much larger than the pistol :D

[Blood-Pigggy]

Heh, the pistol is done and it can shoot now.
Only prob is I haven't made zombie death anim for it.
I gotta start on that now.

[blastradius14]

Just make it fall down. Now is a good time for the "splut" sounds :bleh:

Or is this the one that makes it's head go boom?

[Blood-Pigggy]

Nah, the pistol death anim is top of head go boom.
It's so fun to shoot the damn thing!

[blastradius14]

Okdokey, it should first, make the zombie have a blood fountain spraying from its head, then as the top is coming off, make the rest of the head explode :evil:

[Blood-Pigggy]

I'm on good progress with it.
His head is exploding as planned, as I piece the anim together frame by frame.
Is lookin good!
Anyone got any idea for what the second death anim should look like?

[Fawfulhasfury]

Second?

[Blood-Pigggy]

Yeah, two death anims for each weapon.

[Fawfulhasfury]

..what other weapon are you animating, sry I missed something here. =/

[Blood-Pigggy]

What?
I finished the sword, I did one death anim.
I finished the pistol, working on first death anim.

[Fawfulhasfury]

Oh, you want a second pistol death animation. Ok, how about the bullet goes through the zombies chest and kills it as blood splatters through the gapoing hole and his arm falls off, then he falls apart.

[Blood-Pigggy]

Mmm, a bit too dramatic, I think I'll make it go through his chest, blood pours out, and he falls forward.
Lots of blood on the floor.
Yeah it's boring, but the exploding head makes up for it.

[Fawfulhasfury]

Well, true. =P

[Blood-Pigggy]

Like 50% done with first death anim.

[blastradius14]

Wow, Sounds sweet :ok:

[Blood-Pigggy]

I'll post a shot of the zombie's head going boom as I shoot it.

[Fawfulhasfury]

I'm shaking with excitement. :w00t:

[Blood-Pigggy]

Wow, one more frame and the anim is done, be on your toes.

[Fawfulhasfury]

*Gets on his toes *

[Blood-Pigggy]

And it's done.
I wanted to take a screenshot of him falling down, put it goes too fast, the best I can do is seconds before he falls.
If you look carefull to the left you can see some of his brain flying, and to his right a chunk of his head is falling.

http://img333.imageshack.us/img333/3521/shot131qs.png (http://imageshack.us)
Teehee

[Fawfulhasfury]

Wow! Thats gore galore, but it looks fantastic. Great job as always. :ok:

[blastradius14]

SPLAT! Looks great :w00t:

[Blood-Pigggy]

Whoo!
Right now, you have to press enter to use the gun, control to use the sword.
I'm changing it right now so you have to press number keys.
It'll work this way.

If you press 1 The sword icon will pop out at the side of the screen, to symbolize that you have it equipped, the icon will have a sword and the number you need to press.
Press 2 is the same, except for the gun.

And so on.

[blastradius14]

Sweeet. Is there any description of the weapons themselves? Or is it just something you hide in your cloak and whack somebody with?

[Blood-Pigggy]

There are going to be descrips when you pick them up.
(The sword is given to you in a cinematic).
Or if you click on them.

The icons that is.

[Blood-Pigggy]

Time for me to get off the PC.
Another day of work!

[blastradius14]

So the weapons have descriptions. That's awesome. You need any help with schematics or something? I can do words :D

[blastradius14]

I can depict the scematics into a description, just like the manual for Crusader. Eh, I'll just email it to ya :ok:

[Blood-Pigggy]

Wha?
Mmm, okay.
Give me what you got.

[blastradius14]

I can't email it to ya, and I don't know why. And it's too big to post on this site.

You got some other site I can post it on?

[blastradius14]

Oh, never mind. It let me email it to you now. Stupid email :ranting:

[Blood-Pigggy]

Mmm,
Interesting.
I didn't get it!

[blastradius14]

Did you look just now? Hmmm....
Should be labeled Modern Age Books or something like that.

It gives all sorts of nifty descriptions of stuff.

[Blood-Pigggy]

No, it's not in my inbox, send it again.

[blastradius14]

Alright, gimme a second...

[Blood-Pigggy]

I got it this time, thanks.

[blastradius14]

Hehehe. It even gives good descriptions of shields and detpacks.

[Blood-Pigggy]

Um, is this a word file?
What kind of file is it?
I just get one of those "generic" files.
The one where you have to select from a list.

[blastradius14]

Read the readme. I set it to say what you needed to do.

Just open crusade file with the Edoc32 file.

[Blood-Pigggy]

Wtf? I only got one file, what're you talkin about?

[Blood-Pigggy]

Ok, I got it Blast.
Whee!

[blastradius14]

Sheesh man, It's like you are special :roflol:

Just kidding. Kill zombies! :butcher: Kill!

[Blood-Pigggy]

Mmmm, delicious document file.

[Blood-Pigggy]

Whee!
Thanks alot. I'm implementing it right now.

[Blood-Pigggy]

:blink:
The game is huge!
I barely have anything in it and the file is 4 meg!
Jeeze.

[troop18546]

The sounds should be the resource hogs.

[troop18546]

Doublepost.

Err... how are you gonna give us the game???

[Blood-Pigggy]

I'm going to find a file hoster that has a decent speed.

[Blood-Pigggy]

Okay, after I finish the crypt (which spawns zombies) the alpha will be very soon.

[Blood-Pigggy]

Poop, triple post sorry.
But here's a screen of the crypt.
http://img83.imageshack.us/img83/7748/shot140tt.png (http://imageshack.us)
I'm not that proud of it, it looks crappy I know, but I'm going to be changing it soon.

[troop18546]

I think it should be made out of bricks, not out of blocks. The whole grass or smth covering and all that sh*t look great, but why not at more blood? Like words written in blood. That would really make it rock. :ok:

[Blood-Pigggy]

No, I'm changing to to be darker, and adding a gargoyle to the top, getting rid of the vines, and adding ALOT of blood.

[troop18546]

NOOOOOOOO!!! Leave the vines!!!! Do all that but LEAVE THE VINES!!!!

[Blood-Pigggy]

If the vines look bad with the darker palette, I'm removing them.

By the way.

http://img83.imageshack.us/img83/5230/shot150hk.png (http://imageshack.us)


HAHAHA!

[troop18546]

Like I said - cool. :ok:

[Blood-Pigggy]

:blink: This is going to take much longer than I thought.

Making graphics pixel by pixel is crazy. Here's the redesigned crypt, complete with it's own mutilated zombie! (I put it in there for sexiness)
http://img336.imageshack.us/img336/7321/shot161dy.png (http://imageshack.us)

[Danny252]

can the player actually die yet?

[Blood-Pigggy]

Heh no.
I can MAKE that he dies.
But I keep that off for testing purposes.

[punch999]

Upload it fool!

[Blood-Pigggy]

Okay bums, I've decided to give you guys a pre-alpha release that I call the bLeEd sampler, it's not much, so don't go judging it too harshly, as it's VERY early in development, enjoy!

bLeEd Sampler (http://us.f2.yahoofs.com/bc/43039572_17e6/bc/My+Documents/BleedSampler.zip?bfWo5ADBBHxLatNi)

P.S.

Enemies spawn out of the crypt so be patient.
They don't spawn that fast, so boohoo.

[Doubler]

Are we allowed to give feedback? :ph34r:

[Blood-Pigggy]

Yes.

[punch999]

Its really good for where it is. At this point all my fears for this game are gone

[blastradius14]

WHOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO HOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO a sampler!

Raghhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh :Titan: :rifle: :butcher: :guns: :sniper: :pissed:

Grrrr.

[punch999]

the site is up

[Blood-Pigggy]

What's not up yet?
What the hell are you talking about?

[blastradius14]

It is still telling me it can't find the Server. MEZ GONNA KILL YOU! RAGHHHHHHHHHHHHHH :ranting: LOL

[Blood-Pigggy]

Works for punch...
I don't know what could be wrong, let me see if I can upload it here.
Yeah, 200k, that's really going to work.
I need a good filesharing place to use as an alternative for Blast.

[Doubler]

I really like the game so far :ok:
Points of attention:
-My character got stuck a couple of times after I jumped a couple of times, and fired a weapon. It got unstuck when I changed weapons.
-The zombies have some difficulties getting out of the crypt.
-If I press jump in mid-air there's still a little cloud of dust :P

And, errr... The zombies are somewhat slow to react to a bullet.

[punch999]

I think the mid air dust looks cool!

[Blood-Pigggy]

Well, the zombies don't react slowly, it takes the bullet time to travel, I can't change this. (Actually I can, the bullet fires as soon as the anim reaches frame 7, making it frame 1 would make it seem sped up).
For the stuck thing, that's unavoidable, it's a animation overload, just try not to smash buttons.
The zombies aren't having difficulty getting out of the crypt, I have it set up so that they stay in there for awhile, if you shoot your gun or wave your sword it should attract them towards you (or jumping). They'll come out of their own after awhile.


The cloud of "dust" is not dust but steam, he uses propulsion, if you jump in mid air his system can't propel him any higher, so it's a nice effect, that's why every know and then even if he isn't jumping it lets loose some steam.

[blastradius14]

So if you just sit on top of the gargoyal and swing forever they will mass under you? :sneaky:

[Blood-Pigggy]

Yes.
Then if you walk out they'll come out bunched up.
The good thing is that if you leave them alone they eventually go in random directions so they aren't bunched up.

[blastradius14]

Well that is good :ok:

Don't want a horde of 1 zombie, could you kill a pile of many zombies in one spot?

[Blood-Pigggy]

Yep.
LOL, trying to fix that somehow.
Although it prolly won't matter, you'll still get massed anyway.

[Blood-Pigggy]

WARNING: It's possible for the game to overload with zombies if there are too many corpses.

Triggers go wild, the zombies start floating in the air, ETC.
This is fixed in the next release.

[Doubler]

That actually seems like fun to me :P

[Blood-Pigggy]

LOL, you can't kill them either. By the way. Go there if you can't download from other site.
New BLEED host (http://jupiter.walagata.com/w/eyenixon/BleedSampler.zip)

[blastradius14]

This sampler is great. Haven't run into the too many zombie glitch yet :D

[Blood-Pigggy]

UPDATE: I've taken into consideration what you guys said and problems that arise.
Animations can now be unstuck by pressing the refresh button (Z)
Zombies spawn faster.
Zombes corpses no longer last forever, they decompose after a short while.
Bullets now travel at appropriate speed.
That's all that I have fixed so far.

Unfortunatly you guys aren't getting another ver until alpha, haha.

Oh yeah.

http://img173.imageshack.us/img173/4408/shot170tu.png (http://imageshack.us)

AAAAH!

[Doubler]

I guess I've run into the zombie thing now...
They don't float, but my sword can't hit anything anymore.
It isn't related to the fact that I just shot my last bullet, right?

EDIT: Wait! They float too! :w00t:
Wow :D
Want me to post a screen?

[Blood-Pigggy]

LOL.
No, it's related to the fact that there are WAY too many zombies on screen, that includes the corpses.

Sure, post a screeny.

[Onyx]

Go Piggy! Nice work on Bleed. Hell, now I want to work on some of my projects.

*opens Game Maker*

naaah...

*Alt+F4*

Oh, yeah, and see what you can do about collisions. They get weird when jumping on that gargoyle sometimes. Also, if you hit gargoyle with your headwhen jumping and you keep shift pressed you don't fall down.

Keep it up.

[Blood-Pigggy]

UPDATE: I added a way to get ammo, and it isn't pickups.
It's like a buy interface, up where your ammo and weapons are displayed I've added some more icons, the price of a certain item is shown (in this case pistol clips) as you kill things you get cash, you use this cash to buy more ammo, if you get 25 dollars (the price of a clip of ammo) you can click on the icon and you get two more clips.

[Doubler]

http://img219.imageshack.us/img219/6914/ohoh0vw.png
Uh oh. I think I'm in trouble...

EDIT: It seems to be a bit of a large picture. I'll see if I can make it a bit more humble in size.
UPDATE: Still trying to get fileshack to host a smaller screen...
UPDATE: This should be a bit better.

[Blood-Pigggy]

Jesus, how long did you sit there for? Good thing I fixed it :D

[Doubler]

A while :D
I never thought playing with zombies could be so much fun

[Blood-Pigggy]

Heh, well here's a pic of the updated interface, there's the buy system.

Just in case people missed the buy system update... Cause of your huge but fantastic pic Doubler.

[troop18546]

Well, it's not bad, but the thing is - I think you would've saved some resources by making the playwindow a little smaller (the walking path isn't that big and the sky fills up 3/4ths of the main window + the character can jump SOOOO high).
Another glitch - the character (when using a sword or pistol) sometimes just shows half of the animation when slicing and shooting.

That about covers it... - EXCELLENT JOB!!!!! :ok:

WHOOOOPEEEE!!!!! THE GAME ROCKS!!!!! :Brain: :kosta:

[Blood-Pigggy]

Heh, thanks Troop, I'll take the probs and advice into consideration, now for another update. I need input on the look of the shotgun.
http://img10.imageshack.us/img10/6346/shot195cl.png (http://imageshack.us)
Wait? Half the Animation? No, he can shoot up and down, so maybe that's what you're seeing, as for the jumping, he's supposed to jump that high, he's inhuman!

[Doubler]

By request my comment on the shotgun:
I think it looks good :ok:
But what is the dark red streak on it?

[blastradius14]

SWEEET! A shotgun!

The version I played was awesome. The new file has shotgun?

[Blood-Pigggy]

The red streak is just for fanciness.
Some people mark their shotguns with colors as personalization.
At least in the south :bleh: .

Well, so far I've only made the graphic, I've yet to give it firepower.

[blastradius14]

Oh, manage to skip the part about alpha :cry:

Should make it kill everything within such range.

[Blood-Pigggy]

Heh.
Well, I know it has to have a very powerful firepower level.
I'm not sure how to implement it yet without making it impossibly difficult.

[Blood-Pigggy]

Cause I'm nice I've decided to give you guys a updated alpha.
Doesn't matter where you install, install it in the same drive as the older files and say yes when asked to replace, it doesn't matter where you install.
This version fixes the massing zombie problem,
Adds money per kill,
Adds the option to buy ammo,
And fixes a few small other probs,
BleedSamplerV2 (http://jupiter.walagata.com/w/eyenixon/BleedSample.zip)
You do NOT require the older version of Bleed.

[Doubler]

Seems I'm getting a corrupted file?
I can't unzip it; it stops halfway through.

[Blood-Pigggy]

Mmm, try downloading it again.
I don't see what the prob is.

[Blood-Pigggy]

Oh! I'm sorry, the file was corrupted when I uploaded.
I'll try to upload it again.

[Blood-Pigggy]

BloodSamplerV2 (http://jupiter.walagata.com/w/eyenixon/BleedSampler.zip)
That one should work!

[Doubler]

Works like a dream, thanks.

But I'm of to sleep now.
There wouldn't be a newsletter on the game, by any chance? :P

[Blood-Pigggy]

Newsletter? What do you mean?

Well, you should have a nice rest.
You can tell me what the hell you're talking about later.

[blastradius14]

Hahahaha. With a stab from above, this zombie will never know what hit 'em! LOL

[blastradius14]

You can also sit above the summon coffin, if you are careful enough.


Wheee... back to more mindless slaughter.

[blastradius14]

AHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH. See what a little forum browsing can do? See, the new alpha DIDN'T fix the glitch :D

[Blood-Pigggy]

Blast.
YOU HAVE TO KILL THEM.
If you just stand there doing nothing, THE BUG WILL RESURFACE.
I'm working on it again to prevent it from doing that PERIOD.

[punch999]

A spawn limit?

[Blood-Pigggy]

Yep, Punch please tell why you don't like the buy system.

[Blood-Pigggy]

BIG NEWS: The game is now a real sidescroller! That's right! You don't stand in one static screen! You can now further your explorations in the courtyard!
Look forward to the next update.

[Fawfulhasfury]

Wow! That is awesome! Destroying zombies is so satisfying! And you have done an awesome job with it! I can't wait for the next update! I love it! Great job :D

[blastradius14]

What's Funny is I thought I had paused it.

I had the money up to 350 :evil:

[Blood-Pigggy]

Wait till the next release.
I nearly killed myself trying to figure out how to make it scroll.

Hoping to add some skeletons and player death in next release.

[Fawfulhasfury]

Woohoo! Yeh!

[blastradius14]

The only thing better than this is when its time to wash my sisters cat :twisted:

[Blood-Pigggy]

William Shatner: Suddenly! I feel... a sense! Of... EVIL!

LOL

Seriously, for those that like to exploit bugs, here's a nice one, go up to the crypt and stand as close as possible, then just keeping tapping the attack button when you have your sword equipped, it'll kinda shoot him into the air.

[blastradius14]

Done it already. It's not too fun.

[Blood-Pigggy]

It is for the designer.
BECAUSE THEN YOU CAN ANNIHILATE THEM!
But I think to one that's the most fun is the INSANE ZOMBIE bug.

[blastradius14]

Yeah, hordes of zombies flying after you LOL

[Doubler]

Morning :yawn:

With the newsletter thing I was joking about the fact that now that you're fan following is growing, you should give out a Plood Pig Productions newsletter to keep everyone up to date :P. Sorry. Won't do it again :)

[Blood-Pigggy]

I wasn't offended, I was just confused.
Despite the fact I have a massive vocabulary, it stills deters me from knowing some obvious words.

[Fawfulhasfury]

So how're you progressing so far with the game? And where does the courtyard supposedly lead when its fully finished?

[Blood-Pigggy]

Well, it's just gonna go on awhile and present some other enemies for you to fight in the alpha.
In the full version it leads on with the story, as there will be a intro.

[troop18546]

Cool, uh... I forgot to play the frigin 2nd release!!!! Damn! I'm going to play it now!
:bye:

[Blood-Pigggy]

Heh...
Next release won't be so easy, there will be DEATH! For you and for everything else of course.
Still trying to figure out how I should specialize the shotgun's firepower.

[Fawfulhasfury]

Make it to where it kills at least 5 enemies in front of you? But only has like 10 bullets.

[Blood-Pigggy]

Well, I've thought of a spread fire, but I'm trying to figure out how to implement it.

[blastradius14]

How does the pistol work? Just give it half the range but kill everything till it gets there :evil:

Least anything that SHOULD be killed by a shotgun :D

Can't wait till full version :ok:

[Blood-Pigggy]

Okay, I figured out how the shotgun works.
I took Fawful's idea, anything in a close range to you when firing the shotgun is wiped out.
