ATHF-NEW Game-'Master Shakes Grand Adventure'

[karcreat]

...Mario Bros like platformer, lots of sounds/voices from the show...control MS, as he is transported to an alien world...he's gotta collect pricey jewels and avoid raging water, spikes, flying saucers and Mooninites, among other stuff...;)

I need some folks to test it out, let me know what needs fixin', if anything...its about 4MB Winzipped...email me if you wanna help out!...;)

Ok, theres a sliiiight problem with THIS game...I cant email it to ANYONE, with all the goodies in it (NONE of which are removable, they all work too well...The Leperchauns talk, the Brownie Monster is fully animated, etc, etc) it turns out to be a 10.22 MB file...winzipped! (I was waaay off on my 4MB guess...sorry about that...D'Oh!)

So unless there is SOMEONE here that would be kind enough to host the game (Geocities allows up to 5MB to be uploaded at once, so Im screwed here), I dont think ANYONE will be playing it...too bad, its a tough one...looks simple...buuuut....hehehehe...;)

Bugs: Does not keep track of lives.
Does not start you on previous level.

On top of that:
Extremely hard to avoid spaceships rays.

Really???
Seemed like it was when I tested it...not sure how to fix that bug, this game creation stuff is still pretty new to me...

Does not start you on previous level.

Wasnt meant to...;)
Im afraid THAT option just aint in the cards, with the game creation software I have for making these damn things...;)

The only other option I can think of, to solve BOTH those errors is to give the player ONE life...and make the game SLIIIGHTLY lesss difficult...what do you think?

...Extremely hard to avoid spaceship rays...

Hmmm..THATS easy to fix...slow the shooting speed, make the shots from the ship a tad less often...

Man, Im an idiot...it suddenly popped into my head whilst I was out having a smoke (I seem to think better then) why the LIVES meter wasnt registering correctly...THATS fixed...but the whole deal of having to start all over on the first level if you die is just something that the program does...I am sure there is a way around it, but as I stated previously, Im still pretty new to making games (I tend to try to make them LOOK and SOUND really good, and the gameplay is challenging, I hope...but extensive/complicated programming is something Im still working on...;)

Other than that, I alstered the saucers programming to shoot less often, and a WEEEE bit slower, so you can move around a shot...if youre good...;)

I will redo the INSTALL program with the new EXE file, and reupload it...if thats ok...;)

PS...Unless there was anything else you noticed?
