This little game was originally meant to be a Helicopter-like game, but the ceiling/floor movement was too time consuming and I gave up and reversed it.

So basically you're a little rocket ship dodging fireballs which get faster and faster the the further you go along. You use the spacebar to contol the hieght of the ship(a helicopter-like control, but I didn't like using mous down...)

And because it is a bit annoying when you accidentally touch the very tail of the fireball and die, I gave you "health" which you usually get 2/3 hits before dying. hitting the walls however is an instant death.

You'll need to download the .zip file with all the images and sounds too for it to run.

Heres the bare script:

EDIT: Added the warning right when you start the game

EDIT: Your ship speed increases at 2x

EDIT: Fireballs stop increasing speed at 3x (3.45 is impossible)

Looks neat, all i can really suggest is slightly smaller fireballs and DEFINITELY include some sort of warning that the game starts instantly :)

*EDIT*

Keep the fireballs, but include that warning :)

Could you please make a zip with the images (may I suggest JPEG's?) and current script available for people with dial-up?

941kb (current mediafire download is quite large for dial-up users)

Not super-important but it'd ease some aggravation.

YMSG Protocol Support (Discontinued) Circular Keyboard and OSK example. (aka Iris KB) Target Screensaver Drive Toolbar Thingy Rollup Pro (Minimize-to-Titlebar & More!) 2D Launcher physics example Ascii Screenshot AutoIt3 Quine Example ("Is a Quine" is a Quine.) USB Lock (Another system keydrive - with a toast.)

Oops, oh yea, by the way, it uses the space bar XD I think I might have forgot to mention that...

@crashdemons

sure, but I can't use JPEGS, autoit won't show them for me... I'll just have all the pictures in a zip for you too (has sounds too..)

@Sxyfrg

Sure, I was going to do that, but I was so tired by the time I posted I just let it slide lol, Il'l get to that now

Okay, Just add this:

MsgBox(0,"Dragon Chase!","Get Ready!" & @CRLF & "The fireballs will get faster and faster  the farther you go! Be sure not to hit the walls!" & @CRLF & "Use the SPACEBAR to control your height! Hold space bar to go higher, left go to go lower!")

right before the While 1 Loop

EDIT:

You know, you'd think the ceiling/floor wouldn't be a problem, but it really does matter when those fireballs get fast

EDIT:

Oh jees, you can't avoid the fireballs when it gets up to x3.45 speed , I should make the controls faster too

Edit:

Okay, the cieling/wall blocks that move really eat ur cpu lol wow I didn't notice it..

EDIT: 3.45x is impossible lol, lets have it stop getting faster at 3x, the dragon's gotta have limits, yea know lol

Edited the first post's script

Not bad. Make the images transparent though.

How do I do that?
