Title: Extermination: Introduction
djrussell - May 25, 2007 09:34 AM (GMT)
Okay, don't laugh..

... okay, go ahead and laugh. I am making this Flash game (using ActionScript) for my college course. Basically "Extermination" sits you inside 20 tons of steel, wielding a cannon at Iraqi's coming to blow you up. Now before people start crying "racist!" - get over it. It's supposed to be fun.. and it's very stereotypical... there are Iraqi’s running in from all directions with bombs strapped to them, American spies running in a tripping off land mines, etc. Now if the suicide bombers hit you what do you think will happen? That’s right! If they jump on your tank - KABOOM! - you go up in flames.
You've got three lives, and the game includes 6 different types of items ('boosters' - health, ammo, speed, etc). As well as 3 types of Iraqi’s, and 3 different types of 'splatter' (but i may be adding more in). It's taken me around 40 hours to get it where it is right now.. i've had to learn a new language and build the game from scratch.
I will be posting this game up in about 1-3 weeks time to play, and will probably be adding it to the Osiris Games arcade section :) Let me know what you think.. its pretty funny, and its a lot of fun :P

djrussell - May 25, 2007 02:55 PM (GMT)
Oh btw ill be posting up the game script for people to have a look at (if your interested).. it was a learning exercise for me, so i figured it might be able to help some other people interested in programming in Flash (ActionScript) too.
hannawald5 - May 25, 2007 03:18 PM (GMT)
Sure I can take a look :)
Seriously Unserious - May 25, 2007 04:11 PM (GMT)

sc always had 5 enters down and then just a ninja, he has 2 enters down then his name and ninja...imo he didnt copy at all...but it does bring back memories of the grumpy old man :P
Gavinjohn - May 26, 2007 06:38 PM (GMT)
im not a grumpy old man! im a grumpy teen :D
Gavin :ph43r:
ben3683914 - May 26, 2007 07:13 PM (GMT)
dont flatter yourself, i was talking about sc
Gavinjohn - May 26, 2007 10:42 PM (GMT)
i liked Sim Crazy, he was good
Gavin :ph43r:
ben3683914 - May 27, 2007 02:57 AM (GMT)
i miss sc, he was a funny old bugger
djrussell - May 27, 2007 03:13 AM (GMT)
Maybe his wife kicked his ass for spending too much time on the forums.. or maybe he died :unsure: i hope not.
ben3683914 - May 27, 2007 03:33 AM (GMT)
i hope not...maybe he just doesnt like us :unsure:
djrussell - May 27, 2007 04:46 AM (GMT)
Maybe.. but that doesnt sound right either cause almost everyone liked him and we all got along fine.
ben3683914 - May 27, 2007 05:44 AM (GMT)
yea, it must be personal reasons that he cant be on anymore...who knows maybe he keeps forgetting to make an appearence here but he does want to
metalman - May 27, 2007 10:40 AM (GMT)
he's probably just forgotten his password. and his email address.
u1bd2005 - May 27, 2007 02:06 PM (GMT)
Yeh temperory amnesia is popular these days, I descovered the cure for it but then I forgot it :D, anyway he'll be back (i think).
game looks great btw. I have flash 8 so Ill be wanting the script off you when you post it, ive never been very good with flash, ive made a snake game and a tetris game (both using tutorials) but thats it.
u1bd2005 :ph43r:
djrussell - May 27, 2007 02:24 PM (GMT)
A snake clone was actually my original project.. but I found it way to hard and advanced for what I wanted (suprisingly hard infact)..
ben3683914 - May 28, 2007 07:35 AM (GMT)
i didnt think that snake would be hard...i thought it would be rather simple...but hey, you learn something new everyday
djrussell - May 28, 2007 10:33 AM (GMT)
Thats exactly what I thought, thats why I wanted to do it! lol But nope.. its actually suprisingly complicated.
u1bd2005 - May 28, 2007 04:33 PM (GMT)
heres the one I made using the tutorial I found on the internet, all of the code i needed I just copied and pasted so I never really learnt anything while making it.

So what was the point? haha
u1bd2005 - May 29, 2007 10:40 AM (GMT)
that im not sure of, it was just something to do when I got flash, lol

Update:
Did another day's work on the game today.. its coming along really well.. its looking tones better then the screenie, so I'll have to post some new ones up soon. A lot more blood, the blood splatter looks a lot more realistic and now theres shit like planes flying over the place dropping bombs n stuff as well lol Pretty cool..
djrussell - June 3, 2007 04:25 AM (GMT)
Update:
I just re-uploaded a new image of the game (overwrote the old image):

NOTE: If it looks the same as the old one, just right cick on the page and click "Refresh".
Its coming along very nicely :P
electric_adrian - June 3, 2007 09:47 AM (GMT)

Looking forward to this game.. B)
