I've just finished making a maze game similar to the "Scary Maze Game" and would like to add lazers around the maze to make it harder to get through.
So basically when youre mouse cursor hits the lazer you lose, id like the lazers to either swing side to side or just appear every X amount of seconds.
I am creating a Simple Flash Maze Game,and i have 2 'Movie Clips' that i want to react when the collide.IE. When 'CHAR_LVL1' (A Movie Clip, controlled with the Arrow Keys) comes into contact with 'WALL_LVL1'. I want it to 'gotoAndStop(27);'[code].I am using Flash CS5 and Action Script 2.0
I am developing a flash maze game and I have a problem with changing direction of my movie clip. I can move around my maze and I have a hit test sorted. But what I want is when a player presses a keyboard button, the first animation of the MC rotating will be played, then when the play head hits stop the MC will stay in this same position (pos from last frame) until another key for example up is pressed.
I want to create a really basic pac man style maze game, its actually for some marketing materials and it will be really used as means of navigation rather than as a game, I want pac mac to eat certain words and when that happens it will tell the user about that topic. What the best way for pac man to work his way around the maze would be? Would I be best using hit detection? Also what would be the best way to remove the pellets as he eats them? visibility or remove child?
I can't find the line in the Adobe samples for a maze game where the actual .as code is included into the project. This is fundamental, since my own implementation is just using include "file name";, which isn't working. I also can't use import, since I then can't access the elements placed on the stage.? The files are available here http:[url]....
I tried to debug the code, but I can't even find the point where the constructor is called. The execution starts at "stop()" in frame 1 and then if you step into it, calls the enter frame event handler.
I am making a maze game and i have the edge of the maze as a movieclip. I'm trying to test if the player hit tests the maze to make him stop using this code.
If(player.hitTestObject(Maze)) { function() }
But wether or not It's actually touching the maze (it's in the empty space on the inside) it always registers as touching.
I have some working code that I created in C and ported over to the PSP. I decided that I wanted to work with it in flash and ported it over to AS3.0. It took me a bit to get used to the graphics commands but over the course of a few days I managed to get the code typed in. I compiled it and watched my baby come to life in a new environment. But there was something wrong, everything looked correct but felt wrong. I looked closer and saw what the problem was. The maze is not being displayed like how I put it in.First let me give you some visuals to look at.
[Code]...
When I run the program this is how flash displays the mazeThe starting position is the bottom left corner. Which in flash terms is 13,1. Why oh why is flash rotating and then inverting the map? If row = 13 and col = 1, then [row-1][col] should equal 12,1. I've broken it down and analyzed it till my brain hurt... I can not find any reason for this bizarre behavior... All the program does is interpret the 1's and 0's to know where to place a wall. If the square has a 1 then a wall goes there, if not then its open and the player can walk there. I look at the surrounding squares and then draw what I see... no rotating and no inverting is done.I remind you that the code works as intended in C. So I don't think its a coding issue.
I'm trying to make a maze that's not made of square blocks,The little guy in the left-hand side moves when the user presses an arrow button, but when he can't walk through the lines (walls)I'm guessing that I can't use the usual "hitTest" command, so is there any way i can achieve this without finding every point where the lines cross and do a specific hitTest (hitTest (x,y,true) )?
I am writing a maze program for school. I am using a 2d array to represent to location of walls for the maze. The background (for figuring out where a player can move) is not the problem.I am using this algorithm for places the images...
for (i = 0; i < 22; i++) {for (j = 0; j < 16; j++) {if (maze[i][j] == 1) {instanceName = "wall" add i add j; //for multiple names for each instance duplicateMovieClip("wall", newname = "instanceName", 1); setProperty("instanceName", _x, (25*i+13));
[code]....
What needs to be done to use many copies of one instance to build the visible part of my maze? I want to be able to have all pieces anmed "wall" instead of "wall1", "wall2", etc...which isn't working anyway.
I am going to develop a very simple game for android and for iphone/ipad I have the option to develop it in cocos2d or in adobe flash air (i am not a developer, but i have 2 developers who are offering me the service)I have a developer that states that cocos2d is better and other one that states that adobe flash air.I want it in cross platform.the cost offered by both developers is the same..i have heard that adobe air has the flaw that it is very slow, is this real? if you had the 2 options which will you use to develop your game and why?
I'm making a game that populates user-designed cards into the game using an external xml file. My main class loads the xml file and then calls to the "Card" class, which wants to use the xml file. I've tried using this.parent and it just gives me a null object reference error. This is what I have so far: Main.as
currently i making this game and objects would spawn at random and be able to click but when de game starts itself, the spawn is correct but i am unable to make it stop when time goes to 0seconds.
I'm creating a game at the moment for my university course and it involves the player character jumping on top of boxs twice to break them as opposed to just once.What would be the most efficient/simple way of writing this in Actionscript 3.
I have recently started working with Mahjong game. But being not so experienced developer. I am just confuse about many aspects of it. So if anyone could throw some light on it. I have to build the game where there could be different number of tiles on screen. 32, 48, 64 , 80, 96, 112 and so on Now I have questions regarding the levels of blocks in this game. I mean the layouts of the game should be predefined or they should be dynamically created? Also I wanted to know how the surface of enable and disable symbols are created?
I was trying to make a game, and the character inside the game could swim. However, I only wanted him to swim in short bursts that refueled every time he hit the ground.
I am thinking of developing of a game like this: [URL]... Do you have any idea - by which game engine I may develop this type of games? I am not sure whether I have to use any 3d physics engine? I think JiglibFlash may be useful, but I am not sure.
how to make a game tutorial as farmville game tutorial to teach the user to play the game. i have recently involve in make that kind of game tutorial for its user by actionscript 3
im trying to create a tamagotchi game type game. For some reason i can not add any items to the stage.Currently i have imported 2 png images to the stage and coverted them to movie clips. One is called TamagotchiCharacter and the other is called Beer. I have also created a new 2 AS3.0 script class called TamagotchiGame and DraggableItem. The following is TamagotchiGame:
Code: package { import flash.display.MovieClip; public class TamagotchiGame extends MovieClip {
[code]....
I have assigned the above code as the BaseClass of the Beer symbol, this has allowed the beer to become draggable and droppable etc.when i run the program nothing happens, i just get a blank white screen.
It's about the "Game Character Dialogues", It is used to instruct the user what to do, like what you see in BookWorm or Diner DAsh.I used dynamic text fields to generate these dialogues,but as I continued doing it. I found myself stuck.I have no idea on how to change the words when the "next" button is clicked. there will be no previous button. but the dialogue will replay when the character is clicked.
Is there a way to get this code to work? It's meant to count the seconds passed while playing the game and gives a bonus multiplier to the current score when the game ends. I don't know how to get the returned value to combine it into the multiplier int variable. Is there any way to get this code to work or is it completely wrong?
We have a bug in one game whereby the sound of the word repeats. Even when we use stopAllSounds - the sound is still kept in memory and you can hear it in the next activity - it's a disaster and kids get real angry.
I am making a Shooting game in flash actionscript 3 and have some questions about the flow of logic and how to smartly use the OOPs concepts.There are mainly 3 classes:Main Class: Initializes the objects on the screen.Enemy Class: For moving the enemies around on the screen.Bullet Class: For shooting.What I want to do is find out if the Enemy has been hit by a bullet and do things which must be done as a result ...What I am doing right now is that I have a ENTER_FRAME event in which i check collision detection of each enemy unit (saved in an array) with the bullet instance created, and if it collides then perform all the necessary actions in the Main class .. clogging the Main class in the process
well i made a game and in the game there is music at the first frame and when u lose to goes back to first fram and more music plays so they are overlapping.
the problem i get is that when the user selects "new game" it should restart the game. when it does this the toolbar is not reset. instead a new menu item is added (without removing the old one. so evertime the user hits new game, a new "file" menu is added). how do i make sure there is only 1 "File" menu? and im using actionscript 2
When game page loading , the flash game itself does not appear ( just white area as the holder of the flash game) untill the game almost finish downloading, then it appears .. This long waiting with just white area makes visitors leave, thinking there was nothing there.
