Hi! I guess...

I'm going to be working on a small game called Lost Souls.
It all starts with a mysterious phone call for a free cruise trip to a tropical island you have never heard of (ITS A SCAM!... sorta). Being the gullible piece of trash you are (And plot reasons) you go on it. Turns out it was not a scam but actually a really nice cruise... until you get beached because the captain was texting while boating. Turn out, the island you got beached on is in the middle of a mysterious outbreak that makes them hungry, hungry for people! Try to  rescuing others in an effort to escape the island alive!

Moved to PC/Mac dev sub-forum and added to Web section, as this doesn't appear to be a calculator game.

This seems kinda interesting. And now I see where your avatar comes from :P. I am curious about what you'll come up with. Could you provide more details about what game genre this will be? (eg RPG)


Also make sure to bump this topic when you got updates, since editing the first post will not notify users.

Uuuuh trying such a big project on a platform like scratch might be hard, but I'm really looking forward to see it done ;D
good luck with this! :)
u/xMarminq_ January 26, 2017, 01:44:18 PM
Scratch is probably the most easiest platform to program on, so let's see if I can even program on the easiest platform ever.  :P
u/p2 January 26, 2017, 01:49:27 PM
actually scratch is pretty har if you hake advanced stuff...
sure its easier to get there, but its super hard to modify stuff only slightly towards something that wasn't supported my scratch.
also if you crete too many objects (had the problem with a snow animation) the program kills itself... <_<
I personally would NOT recommend scratch for bigger projects
u/xMarminq_ January 26, 2017, 02:19:18 PM
I'll try not to clone sprites or have a big library of sprites. There's just gonna be a lot of costumes. 10 sprites max.  :thumbsup:

(Updated! see the top post or first post)

This update has all necessary walking animations and components.

DJ sorry if this is a double post, this message will appear if it was updated and was a double post.  :-\

This update has all music added, at least until I make some more or find more.
u/p2 January 27, 2017, 08:52:55 AM
wow well that looks much better than I expected :D The collision detection is working nice :)
u/xMarminq_ January 27, 2017, 03:03:08 PM
don't do the d key and left arrow though... It beats the collision detection...
u/xMarminq_ January 27, 2017, 03:56:24 PM
(Updated! see the top post or first post)

This update has true WASD and arrow support along with the finishing touches on the bathroom, wth a reskin of the bath which fits in more with the game

I will check it out soon. I wonder, though, what makes it so difficult to make walking and collision in 4 directions when one dirrction is already done? Shouldn't it use the same code?
u/xMarminq_ January 27, 2017, 11:26:51 PM
I'm gonna fix clipping rn
u/Dream of Omnimaga January 28, 2017, 05:37:10 AM
So I tried it and I have a few suggestions: Maybe make the main track loop because it doesn't appear to do so (all there is afterwards are two beeps). Also maybe make the background a different color than white so that it looks more like you're indoors, like in Final Fantasy or Zelda. I like the graphical style so far. Also do you use tilemapping for collision or is it completely hard-coded for each object/wall?
u/xMarminq_ January 28, 2017, 04:18:37 PM
Nearly hard coded together
