By the end of September/early October I’ll try and have something cool up. A mini game on the scale of the Samurai Girl game or such rather than a tiny 48 hour thing :)

Seeing as there was no Tigsource challenge last month, and I have found the things to be good for practice, I decided to challenge myself to make a Powerpuff Z game in 48 hours. I went a little over the time, but the extra time was mostly just tidying up the graphics a little, not the main bulk of the game code. Its got working AI, specials, beams, blasts, three playable Powerpuffs and one snow covered level.

Very odd. The theme this time was ‘Everything is Ruined Forever’ so I made a platform game where the world blows up. A lot.

Controls: —————————
Left/Right – Move
Up/Down – Increase/Decrease radius of weapon’s rotation
Up – Talk/Read [?] boxes
Z – Jump (and Double Jump)
X – Fire weapon
C – If energy is full, power up

Currently I’ve been using Blitz3D, but it doesn’t seem terribly well suited for the kind of 2D games I hoping to make. BlitzMax seems much more suited. Here’s a little test thing I did with the BlitzMax demo!
