Devogen Posted April 8, 2011 Share Posted April 8, 2011 Looks good, but a little dissapointing after seeing/playing your flash based game. It must be a tad frustrating for you having to 'dumb' down your sprites so they work in the engine. You should look at improving the frame count, as your flash pony game was pretty cool, my 5 year old loved it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Anna Comnena Posted April 8, 2011 Share Posted April 8, 2011 You can edit the animations you know, and he plans on doing that.Nice to see this on Eclipse, I've been seeing this on Equestria Daily and was sort of "meh" why it had nothing listed on this site. ;) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Helpmeplz Posted April 8, 2011 Share Posted April 8, 2011 This is awesome. XD I can already see this game getting a lot of popularity. Good luck with this. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dingleberrys Posted April 9, 2011 Author Share Posted April 9, 2011 yess my forums is just about to hit the 100 members mark :)were thinking of making a new engine from scratch with C++ but were still discussing that Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SawQuart Posted April 9, 2011 Share Posted April 9, 2011 Yeah, Devo is right. Try to make the engine less complex and make it so little kids can play it. The combat system is pointless really, and any items besides clothes and gold should be limited. I like that you added pets, but try to make them simple. This is just my opinion and I have no idea who is actually playing your game, so feel free to take or leave my advice. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Did I say it was hard to change? just said it must be frustrating for him/her already having the frames there and the output is still limited - whether they increase the framerate is up to them, don't recall saying it was difficult.> imply [ɪmˈplaɪ]> vb -plies, -plying, -plied (tr; may take a clause as object)> 1\. to express or indicate by a hint; suggest what are you implying by that remark?> 2\.

That implies you can't change the sprite frames. You can easily. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Devogen Posted April 9, 2011 Share Posted April 9, 2011 No it doesn't Soul.He made a flash animation with full frames, which is what I saw first. His video shows him using 3-4 frame walks, ie 'dumbing' down his sprites. I wasnt actually referring to the code in any sense (or at least 'out of the box' I was) and its clear he hasnt even started to mess with that yet.
