OK so let me preface this one:
so back in 2008 I visited this most amazing arcade in San Francisco. Within their amazing selection of classic arcade games, was the uber-controversial 1975 classic, Death Race 2000. So as I'm watching my younger brother (still in his 20s, so not that young!!) I'm thinking 'yknow, this looks easy enough that I could probably recreate it in TGF!!' so I set to work.
Various things kept coming up between then and now, but I finally have something to show for it! hopefully soon I'll have something up for download, I just wanted to put this out there to show you guys I'm not dead, lol
At least the first final release is, anyway. Many of the bugs that were plaguing the game (A galaxian/galaga/space invaders-style shootemup) I've been able to fix, but there are still a couple issues to be ironed out.
Hope to have a final release build ready for christmas or the new year!
So anyway after seeing insert credit's forums rise from the dead again, I checked out the 'Development Forum' and after a post about The Games Factory, Rerorero pointed me here. As soon as I get the hang of posting stuff, maybe I'll upload my space invaders/galaga/galaxian clone, at the moment simply titled 'invaders'. (I'll probably decide on a name once it's ready for release, but at the moment Invaders would be... y'know I don't know if it'd be considered a 'tentative title' or a 'working title' anyway that's what I'm calling it.
Hopefully I'll be able to check out some of your guys' stuff, so see you around!
