@Rainbow: > Ryan, Eclipse has been shut down for over a day now. If it was an April Fools then it would have been reverted by now, regardless of time zone. Your logic is pathetic. If you wanted it to last all of April 1st for everyone it would take up two days.

apparently, Robin designed my little pony.

@Buff: > You just have to accept change and roll with it. :D Very wise words from a very buff pony.

April Fools or not, Robins points are legitimate and we should all take them to heart in hopes to improve the community.

Why is this not a poll?

Just for kicks -spam-

Ok, so I'm in the middle of making a game. I've got the player basically done (Movement, projectiles, stats of all sorts, things of that nature). The next step in development is the environment. however, programming each individual block for every level is far too much grunt work. So I thought that I would make a "seed" of sorts, to where for each block (540 total) it will take the current seed and run it through an unique (to that block) equation that will produce a number between 0 and 32\. However, I'm not sure of what I'll use for the seed or the equation. so far I've decided to basically "clump" blocks together in small groups and then have what goes into those squares be determined by sections of the code. For instance, the first three blocks on the screen being determined by the first two characters(or one if there's enough characters). I want to know what you'd guys suggest.

I like the duck.

Just a suggestion for your game; maybe add resource gathering, crafting and the ability to place objects on the map (EG land mines, barriers, things of that sort).

What files does it say he's missing?

Does he have the library files?

@Prince: > 24/7 Online be :huh:

god I suck.

@Marsh: > Damnit, and here I didnt even know it was a contest :( It wasn't, but if it was, you would have lost.

Well, I thought I might as well try and contribute:  That would be the heath pack, the shield, the ufo, and an explosive of some sort. It's definitely not the best, but considering I'm not an artist, I'm proud of it.
