Title: New game added: Battle Combat Fighters
Post by: LPChip on September 13, 2012, 14:22:20

Nifflas has updated the Nano Pack with a new game called Battle Combat Fighters.

I've updated the link from the description, and can be found here as well. (http://www.ni2.se/redirect.php?target=nanopack)

Be warned though: Some have claimed that this game is highly addictive! So only play if you can play for at least half an hour, or you might neglect other duties. :nuts:


[mod]Changed topic to Battle Combat Fighters. Was Combat Battle Fighters.[/mod]

(Psssst, it's "Battle Combat Fighters")

As far as the addictiveness goes: This game is made of Pringles.

I've got 60 as highest, but its doable to beat your score, so will definitely give it a go this weekend. :)

I thought my score of 34 was pretty good, but it looks like it wasn't. :/

Don't worry, I can't get above 48.

The game is so fun! Only one thing I miss, though: the ability to wach the replay in the end, in real time.

My top is currently 73!

If you want to know a good start strategy, check the following spoiler. I use it all the time to get a good head start.

Spoiler: good starting strategy (click to show/hide)

Shoot the items in the following order:
Left, right.

Now look for the blue one that is moving out of the border the most, shoot this one first, then the other one.
Now shoot the yellow shooting ones top and bottom.

The next 2 shots are important in this order.

right, top-right.

Then bottom-left, top-left.

You are now moving really slowly in the center. Shoot each closest one without moving too much to the border.

When the yellow shooting stars on the right appear, kill one then focus on the orange squares on the left, otherwise you'll hit the border.

Good luck. This should get you up to 20 points without getting in much danger. Doesn't always work, but 90% of the time it does.

EDIT: score history:

60, 72, now 73.

me scoring 56 (http://youtu.be/hmhiJxEqIBU) (didn't persevere because i dislike memorizing spawns and going through the optimal opening ritual each round)

I think my best score was 49 (or 59?). I can probably improve it a little bit, but I'm not very good at turn-based asteroid-like shoot'em-ups. X)

[how short do i have to make my posts before people stop calling them articles (: ]

the game is unnifflassy so this would mislead readers a little. in general, i avoid mentioning names on owV lest i sound like "play this game because it's by X"

the one thing i dislike in BCF Ultra: enemies move quicker and strafe more compared to BCFs so i have to memorize enemies' speed vectors during turns to aim at moving targets during pauses. i wish enemies left a short-lived trail.

Maybe if I make a new version, I can make them do that.

Small question: How the pfargtl does the game decide where your guy will move? It seems like the two dots are in completely random locations each time.

You shoot and that gives some recoil. This recoil makes you move in the opposite direction. you can give a big push too.

Clicking adds relative speed. Not absolute.
