   No problem.  I've always wanted to help out on a game!

I can modify my existing button, but I can't make bumpers.  Do you like any other color?  Obviously, I wouldn't make a new button for every color, but here's just how other colors look like.

*Edit*  I'm too busy right now, but I really can.  I might make bumpers after next week when I'm not studying my butt off for the SAT, or my writing assignment (which is, so far, 10 pages long).

I'm sorry, timns...I don't think I can come up with bumpers.  I keep making some, and then thinking that it looks horrible.  Plus I have the SAT coming up in a week, and no time at all on the weekends.  My days are filled with homework, and just about every horrible thing you can think of short of beatings and tortures.

Now you said you would make a folder in my name...What about just simply making a credits page, and say "Cyeb-Made the crappy green button." at the very bottom?  I don't deserve that much credit.

*facepalms*  Okay, my bumpers are not turning out well, but here's a possible button.  Click on the attached button, it looks different on my post.

By the way, you named the button "Button220x70", but it's 213x64.

Hey wait a minute, the "bars" are larger than 16x16!  Does that mean that my bumpers that are currently making me cringe can be larger?  (Not that I'd want to..)

I'm going to get done with the graphics I'm making today, hopefully.

No no, definitely better looking than mine...But I'll create them anyways because you say so.  It might take a while.

Hey timns, I was going through the Graphics folder and found that there were some png's called pegs that look better than the bumpers I'm making...(peg-red.png) and also rectangles...Are my efforts wasted?

You've mentioned that.  Oh, and the bumper I made really does fit 16x16, I just made it 250x250 so you wouldn't miss it.    Then it's just a matter of colorizing it in the GIMP for the other colors.

IDEAS

New game modes if you are up to it.

1. A mode where the objective is to strike a particular bumper in the least number of bounces. Scored like golf, the lower the score the better.

2. A mode where bumpers are not destroyed between balls and special bumpers that light up when struck. Objective is to turn on all the lights, challenge being that the lights are toggles so if struck again they turn off. Not sure about how to score this one, but I think it would be fun.

-dragonmage (December 31, 2009, 07:22 AM)

How about a mode where the bumpers are randomly scattered, and the screen is entirely dark except for the ball launcher?  Then you shoot at the bumpers, lighting them up and the bumpers around it?  Just an idea...  

Timns!  How do you like my blue bumper on the previous page?  Here it is again:


Alternatively, you could use that as a ball?

It restores the defaults for the "hide when inactive" or the "always show" thingies on the side.

If you rightclick the taskbar and do properties and then click "customize...", you can see every program you've ran, uninstalled or not!  Is there anything to get rid of these?  Messing around with AHK has left a bunch of crap in the list.

(*ahem* What I mean is, can anyone code it?  )

Ideas for improvement:

When buttons are clicked, they are pushed down.

The bumpers start off-screen.

The bumpers do their animations as they get hit, saving time!


*Sigh* one day left.. Should I start creating some wonderful looking bumpers, buttons, and such?  Or is somebody else taking care of that?

*EDIT**EDIT**EDIT**EDIT**EDIT**EDIT**EDIT*

I've created a bumper now, do you like it?  Please, go ahead and criticize it, I don't mind.  I'm going to stay here and help you finish it...If that's okay.    I've never helped anybody make a game before.

Nice, I've never heard of this site before.  I found out donationcoder from a popular science magazine a long time ago.  It was talking about the program fSekrit.

I hadn't noticed those, I just thought it was a nice game!  

Hey, timns, when are you going to "put out the call to us creative types"?  Don't you have only three days left to complete it by New Years?

As for the rest of the content of your posts, if I thought like Obama, I would apologize for the arrogance of the U.S., and beg for forgiveness.  I don't so I won't.

-bcpaladin (December 26, 2009, 12:06 AM)

I wonder why it actually is said to be English. A German invented the computer, a Swiss invented the WWW. Time for a change, Obama would say.

-Tuxman (December 25, 2009, 11:40 AM)

Ahhahaha, so funny.  I live in the US, and even I despise Obama.  That spoiled brat that probably did drugs in Hawaii.  What other reason would he have for making marijuana legal for the US for "medical purposes"?  And then he doesn't even want to join his own healthcare that HE thinks is good enough for us, but not good enough for him!

Aside from that, Crush, I think this is a great program.  I really liked that encryption program that you made for NANY a while ago, so I have high hopes for this!

Sure!  Only I have absolutely no java coding experience, and very basic c++ experience.  (I only know how to do cin and cout stuff..)

I know how to use the GIMP though, which is what you need, right?

Ooh, I like it!  It works on my netbook.  Some things run slowly, but when you're actually in game, it works perfectly.

Just another thing, methinks the game is a good idea, only the graphics...well...I can help you if you want.  Oh wait, I see up there ^ you say nudone is helping you?  Can I is help too?

Activation/License/Language Help / Re: License Question: 1-year-free key vs Donation key

« on: November 28, 2009, 01:07 PM »

I have a question relating to this topic...

For the over-one-year license key, is that key for that program only, or for all of the programs?

(All right, yes, I know that this is my first post.  I didn't just sign up to get license keys, it's just that I'm very basic at coding as of now, and hope to contribute some day.)
