Okay, it's been a few days and I've got some news! The game is, essentially, fully functional and nearly bugless! (Thanks to the many people who helped test the game.)And so, I have begun adding modes. To start, one of the original modes. Build Your Own Shelter (BYOS) has been added and let me say, I actually put quite a bit of work in to adding it (as compared to the first installment of this game).
The doors are the main cause for this. In the new, re-coded version I spent hours working on the doors (quite literally). The reason? Well, I wanted the floods/fires to enter the closed section of the door and not exit the side it's closed to, to seem more realistic. I also wanted to make it so building a door wouldn't save you, as that's extremely unrealistic...
Now, in doing this I had to make the doors a turf. And making it do the same functions as normal when being built was difficult. But, that's technical work and I won't get in to that. Just know that BYOS is much harder now, and, thus, more challenging.
The reason why it is is for A) Debris fly in 8 possible directions now, so instead of making an X to survive, you have to make a Star (*), which takes time and concentration. And B) Because of something new I added, it's the "Difficulty Setting." You heard right, Admin's, or the Host, can now choose how hard they want the game to be (as if it wasn't already). The setting's are listed below:
-Easy (Usual format used in previous versions)
-Medium (A bit harder, debris spawns twice as much)
-Hard (Again, a bit harder than Medium)
-Hell Hath No Furry Like a Hurricane (Need I explain this? This mode is EXTREMELY hard, and has been known to wipe out all walls in the shelter. Thus far only have people beaten this mode whilst testing the game, and bugs were saving them).
Um...And I was bugged about the next update to. Expect The Day After Tomorrow mode to be in the next update. Then, after that I can finally start adding more modes! YES! Finally some new stuff! One problem though.... I need suggestions! I already have some, like Bombardment (Objects come from every angle each game so that you can't completely prepare) and Cow mode.... (Launches cows instead of Cars, Trees and Soda Cans if you didn't guess...) In addition, a Hell mode was suggested, but it would alg the game up bad, so it's out of the question.
Please, post here and suggest possible modes! (Nothing along the lines of Frogger please, lol.)

CSS looks familiar...

Aaiko, what's up?
This CSS probably would, a friend of mine a year ago said that I should use that because someone he knew used it, but never told me who it was.... I'm guessing that it was someone you also know. Edit: Or it is you lol. Did you make this CSS? |
