Within a Deep Forest 2 (made with Game Maker)

Well, the project is abandoned, and I already made music for the three levels already in the game. I guess you could help out if PYP ever decides to pick it back up though, but I'm not sure if that will ever happen.

I am currently quite busy, however I own Game Maker 8 Pro, so once I have finished all my crap, I might be able to pick this up. I'm not as good as PYP (I'm still getting my head around it), but i'll see what I can do.

Yeah, and it was such good music too.

On a lighter note...

I may have been wrong about how this project was going. I'm hearing a fairly decent negative response to my abandoning of this, which proves wrong the main reason I stopped (I felt like there was next to no-one working on the project), so I might pick it back up. No guarentees, though; I probably won't.

Wait a sec... <DEAD>!? How is that possible!?

Mostly demotivation.

I say we have a Motivation campaign for PYP!

Let me surprise you in a couple of days.

This is a demo. Nothing is set in stone. Ball speed/bounce height, graphics, nothing. I worked on it because I always wanted to make a bouncing ball game, ever since I played WADF, and I uploaded it here because in case programming of the old project was hard, I might be able to open a new path.
Also, some other ball ideas:

• Ceramic ball Resists heat
• Phasing ball Teleports above/below current point
• Illuminating ball Lights dark areas

So...anyone interested?

So.. vdweller's taken over the WaDF sequel project.

neat
i like where this is going 

...I uploaded it here because in case programming of the old project was hard, I might be able to open a new path.

Oh, if only it were that simple. The programming was fine; it was mostly a lack of motivation, a lot of it on my end. Seems I'm not quite cut out to lead large projects. The fact that the co-leader of the project (OSad) up and vanished without a trace, leaving me to scramble to hold up his end, didn't really help either.

Although I do like where you're going with this. I'm gonna tentatively remove the <DEAD> tag from the topic. I'm also going to look at what you've made from a programming perspective; it's entirely possible you've made a better engine.

My assumption that you met difficulties with the engine was a daring one, and I apologize if I seemed to underestimate what you have done so far.

No worries, I wasn't offended. It was an entirely reasonable assumption, and is often the cause of these sorts of problems.

I would be happy to be a graphics person. Put me in

well, if this is alive again, i think i'll re-enrol for graphics
Give me a shout if ya need help. I'm not exactly a pro at GM, but i know what i'm doing (mostly), and i often find another mind makes problems 1/3 as hard.

Frik it, if ya want, i'll help with programming (once my laptop gets back from repair )
