[FP] Overhead Shooter

[do_pete]

This is my final project. The music was taken from the Rainbow Six sountdtrack. The function FindAngle is a modified version of the function GETANGLE from the program "Space Combat - AI.t" made by Bored. It's an overhead shooter. The controls are:
Movement - Arrow keys
Fire - Ctrl
Reload - Enter

-a description of what it is exactly that your project does
It is an overhead shooter where you walk around and shoot enemies.
-a description of your programming experience (if somebody who's finishing grade 12 computer science hands in a buggy version of pong, I'm going to laugh at them. If someone in grade 10 hands in the same program, that's a different story entirely.)
I'm in grade 10 and I just started using Turing in September
-a list of all of the features of your program
Has random blood splatters when you hit an enemy.
-a list of any known bugs in the program (be honest This can actually make you a better programmer)
The AI is glitchy, dead bodies can sometimes randomly disappear, the longer you play the slower it gets because of the amount of blood.
-any features that you plan(ed) to add.
I plan to completely redo the entire thing to make it easier to read and so that it runs faster. I also plan to add multiplayer, 2D particle engine for explosions, GUI, actual missions, and a completely different AI.

Please feel free to make comments and suggestions.

Amazing!

I think you should start the player farther away from the enemies...
And a strafe button would be cool...

But it's Amazing!

albrecd...y did u say horrible. its pretty good.
u voted horrible but you said amazing? you are a very weird person. and yes, a strafe button would be very cool

Great Game...AI could use improvement and game does get slower but it still runs fine..Better GUI and your on a roll. You should continue this and make a newer version.

[Mr. T]

Says the file is corrupt.

[Rasta Fella]

Nope not for me file seems fine...

[do_pete]

No, it's not corrupt. For some reason it sometimes stops downloading after 1.88 mb

[blaster009]

I got the same error

[iker]

Same here, realy wish it worked... but I'm using FreshDownload, so that might be the problem...

Well that function was a modified version fo a function I received on these forums. I beleive it was zylum's coding but i could be wrong. Good game, the ai was good but could use some work and be made more inacurate to allow for a longer game. As for gameplay, it's quite fun just a little slow. I voted average by acident when I meant to vote good so please remember that when counting the votes whoever is doing so.

Consdering this is for a contest that has not ended yet i think it is very vaild to be posting in it.

This reminds me that we have to juge thess things soonish...

[blaster009]

You're right...Post retracted. I'm itching to see what people thought of my game. Also, very good game. I voted "good" though, because I almost couldn't get away at the very beginning. No matter what I do, I die almost immediately.

Good graphics and all but to die in this game is pretty easy, and how do we restart it? I have to close the exe and start again, maybe adding a play again would help, also make the AI a little less weak perhaps? And a different color for the players army men would help cause hard to differenciate which player I am.

Overall, good job. I really like how you broke down the code into sections, very well commented, and organized. [claps]

One suggestion: Music.PlayFileReturn or Music.PlayFileLoop (must have version 4.0.5) to avoid the ugly forked process which eats CPU....(it ran kind of slow on my p3)...
