----------------------------------- Amit Fri Apr 24, 2009 9:48 pm Split Screen Shooter ----------------------------------- I made this game after I saw AsianSensation's Ultimate Mario game. It's a two player shooter, with each player having their own screen to look at and a minimap in the middle of the screen. The computer I make this on has a widescreen monitor, so if you're playing it on a standard width monitor the minimap might have to be moved a little. The controls are ... Player 1 Turn left/right - A/D keys Move forward - W key Move backwards - S key Shoot - H key Switch weapon - E key Reload - R key Pick up a weapon off the ground - Space key + E key Player 2 Turn left/right - Left/right arrow keys keys Move forward - up arrow key Move backwards - down arrow key Shoot - numpad 1 key Switch weapon - numpad 2 key Reload - numpad 3 key Pick up a weapon off the ground - numpad 0 key + numpad 2 key Any advice or recommended changes are welcome. ----------------------------------- Dan Fri Apr 24, 2009 10:07 pm RE:Split Screen Shooter ----------------------------------- This is rather imperisvie. I did not have a chance to look at the code to much but the game play was not too bad. The bigest issue i have is the players move to fast on my computer. It also seemed very easy to kill some one, just taking one or two shots but i guse this is realstic. I realy liked how the bullets showed up on the minimap and there impacts and having a selection of weaponds was also nice. I might layout the keys a bit diffrent but it's hard to make a good layout for four hands. It would be very intresting if you could make it have online play (even if it was just over the local network). +bits and karma Edit: Also more maps and/or a map editor would be cool. ----------------------------------- Amit Sun Apr 26, 2009 3:05 pm Re: Split Screen Shooter ----------------------------------- Thanks for the complements. The players moving too fast can be solved by just changing the delay in the program, and same with the controls. It would be awsome if there was online play, but I have no idea how to set that up, especially in Turing. The map editor is also a pretty good idea, and I might work on it if I can find the time. ----------------------------------- saltpro15 Sun Apr 26, 2009 4:20 pm RE:Split Screen Shooter ----------------------------------- for online, look into the .NET commands for Turing, ShadowDan wrote a good tutorial for them, it's in the Turing Walkthrough ----------------------------------- Dan Sun Apr 26, 2009 5:15 pm Re: Split Screen Shooter ----------------------------------- The players moving too fast can be solved by just changing the delay in the program, and same with the controls. If it is moving at diffrent speeds on diffrent computers you may want to check out this tutorial on limiting FPS in games: http://compsci.ca/v3/viewtopic.php?t=7393 ----------------------------------- andrew. Sun Apr 26, 2009 5:59 pm RE:Split Screen Shooter ----------------------------------- That is VERY VERY impressive. +50 bits (I would give more but I'm poor) ----------------------------------- Analysis Mode Sun Apr 26, 2009 6:50 pm Re: Split Screen Shooter ----------------------------------- pretty impressive. However, it's done in turing, so... go and learn OpenGL. nehe.gamedev.net is your best friend. ----------------------------------- zspamz Mon Jun 01, 2009 7:55 am RE:Split Screen Shooter ----------------------------------- It's sickass good job My friend ----------------------------------- T.O Tue Jun 02, 2009 8:06 pm RE:Split Screen Shooter ----------------------------------- AMAZING 50 bits ----------------------------------- Turing_Gamer Wed Nov 18, 2009 4:55 pm Re: Split Screen Shooter ----------------------------------- EPIC!!! ----------------------------------- SNIPERDUDE Wed Nov 18, 2009 8:28 pm RE:Split Screen Shooter ----------------------------------- I'm surprised I haven't seen this before! (then again, it was summer) + bits ----------------------------------- Prince Pwn Tue Nov 24, 2009 1:35 pm RE:Split Screen Shooter ----------------------------------- My friend was holding down the fire button, it totally lags the program. Other than that, this is all epicness.
