For lack of a better place to post this I'm plonking it here.
I felt like opening RPG Maker again, mainly after playing Deus Ex and thinking "oh hey you could sortof do that with RPG Maker? lol" but yeah.
So I started trying to make the mechanics for a shooting game.
This is what I have so far:
- pressing A fires a bullet from the player's location which moves in the direction the player is facing indefinately
- if there are more than 40 bullets they start disappearing from 0
- if the bullet hits an event, that event disappears
Very basic stuff so far.
Events:
Parallel process:
And then any enemies you want walking around the map.
Anyway, comments/suggestions/requests? I am thinking of making a simple game with this.
