HWA Example Video

Hi guys,

I've uploaded a video of my new game which shows the new HWA effects. Let me know what you think :)

Needs moar soundz.


Anyways that's nice, but I can pretty much name all of the effects (2) that you used from the file archieves. As in you pretty much just copied and pasted some of the examples into your game. Got no problem with that though, but I'm getting kinda tired of watching the same effects with no modifications all the time.

Also your game is kind of a cartoon-ish style one IMO so these effects doesn't fit that much in.

Gameplay wise, the game seems pretty, uh, easy. I can't seem to recognize any obstancles on the last 70% of the level so it seems kinda like flying and throwing grenades at random without having any challenges.

But yeah, looks good. Keep it up.

Yeah sorry I couldn't get CamStudio to pick up my audio.

I have used some of the stuff from the file archives and modified it quite a bit (that's what it's for right?!)

I actually quite like the way the effects mesh in to the game :) although they do need a bit more tweaking.

The game isn't exactly easy IMO and every tester so far has failed to finish very many levels. This is mainly due to the difficulty of keeping the plane in the air whilst concentrating on other stuff. I'll upload a quick engine test sometime soon :)

I'm not saying what the game is like, I'm saying what the game seems like. Don't take it too hard :)

This video is awesome! :)

I'm very impressed that this is an MMF2 game!

Thanks Bornemix :)

Very nice demo. I love the burning planes. Very nicely done.

Nice work Steve. Much better that previous productions.

Very cool -- I look forward to seeing this game.

Wow. Impressive.

I can't wait to try the final product with some sound.

Looks like a rather professional game to me from the video.

Keep up the good work and thanks for sharing the preview video with us.

Thanks all :) I'll upload an engine test on this thread soon.

I've uploaded an engine test today. So if you don't mind can you download it and report any bugs? Also would like to know whether it is laggy on your PC or not.

Controls are:-

Left mouse - increase altitude
Right mouse - shoot
Space bar - drop bomb
Left arrow - decrease speed
Right arrow - increase speed
Down arrow - bring wheels down
Up arrow - bring wheels up
Enter key - eject!

Nice! It works pretty fine on my computer, but it gives small lagspikes every 20 seconds. I'm running windows Vista with 3 Gb Ram, 2.40 Ghz processor and Nvidia Geforce 8600 GS. I found it a bit difficult to play, being so fast-paced - would be a lot comfortable with it if the plane had some kind of health and didn't die by one hit.

Remember one of the rules of all game design: Your game is harder than you think, probably a lot. It definitely applies here.

Let some people try the game while you watch them play it. That will help you improve it a lot.

It was cool though :)
