My ball game

Here is a game I wrote that got my freinds addicted. You move, shoot lasers and there are cheats if you find them. The game is 2 player, keyboard controls.

Cool. Though I think you should make it so that you can actually "shoot" the lasers. (ie. They continue to move in the direction they were shot after you release the fire key).

That would make the game so much more fun. (Kind of like Spacewars).

aaugh. Add a delay, so as not to fry our computers.
Other than that, good job. The next addition to this game is to use trigonometry to allow players to shoot on angles.
so up arrow is forward, down arrow is back, right arrow is turn right, left arrow is turn left. And they always fire in the direction that they are facing.

Good job.

You'll need to add border barriers to this...moving off the edge of the screen is irritating.

Otherwise quite decent. You 'cheats' are a little odd though, but hey, they seem to work. I think the Player2-Transportation-To-Just-Above-Player1 cheat is the best. Laughing

nice job me and my friend were playing it for 30 mins straight lol

get barriers and scoreboard instead of exiting the program as soon as one ball dies

Nice job, another improvement would be if the other player could move freely while one shoots, as to not piss them off and have them beat the crap out of each other.

oh yeah i agree.. i agree ... it pissed me off like hell

any tips on how to let the other player move freely?

you could create two different procedures and fork them one after the other. or make a procedure within a procedure..

i only have 2 posts and 200 some bits hehehe

I don't think Turing allows you to declare a procedure in a procedure.

You could either fork it (quite inaccurate) or you could prototype a couple of procedures and use simultaneous loops.
