Collision 2

Did some good work this weekend, manage to make a level that scrolls by itself. That wasn't the hard part, hard part was getting the collision to work with it.
Turned out that the collision works with global screen coordinates, and the level with local coordinates. Simply fixed it with the localToGlobal function.
Result! extra sturdy collision!

Getting There

Ha, I'm slowly getting into a prototype that resembles my initial idea. Its kind of like the game canabalt, but with some twists added. Hope to tell you more soon.

Collision

I taught myself to program in Actionscript 3, so I could prototype my own ideas.

I'm not a mega programmer, but I managed to write a little engine and I'm particularly pleased with the collision handling. It's only 10 lines of code, but it works with any rectangular shape.
I had a go at the graphical style, which I am not sure of, but it neatly shows the game's 'skeleton'.

Working on Games

I started working on 3 games. To be honest I am working on only 1, but have 2 others fermenting in my head. There's no pressure of course, because I will decide myself what comes in them and when. Fermenting is a luxury: you can always see if you come up with another idea. Far different from making games for a living. Deadlines require you to come with a cool idea on the spot. I would lie if both manners don't have their own charmes.
