| I'm currently making a flash game with my dad helping me with the programming, me doing some of the programming, me, my cousin, my sister, and my dad doing sounds, and me and 2 of my friends doing graphics. It will be done some time in 2008. It might not be until late 2008, it's going tobe a big side-scrolling platformer. Maybe 5-20 worlds, with anything from 1-10 levels per world, I don't know. I'll release a demo after the first world is finished, which will be early 2008, sometime before April unless something unexpected happens. If you want a quick prewiew, look at my avatar. (that's the original drawing of the main character, although the design has been changed) (actually not original, the original looked exactly like Kirby except different colors, but because of that it was changed from a circle to a trapezoid) (and don't worry, it's nothing like Kirby) I don't know the name yet.
My friend wants me to charge $5 to download it, I don't want to, although it was his idea. I'm hoping any revenue comes from advertising. Either way, I'll give it to anyone on jmtb02 forums for free. | |

We're in the middle of programmming the engine. There's going to be tons of powerups, and I'm not even up to it yet! Plus, my dad's teaching me programming while we're working on it, I can program some parts, but not a lot of it, and my dad is distracted ofted by my mom's website. Once the engine's does, level design will be easy, so that should be when I announce a release date. I'm hoping to announce a release date in the first half of 2008, but it should be when the demo comes out. And on jmtb02 forums, I gave a link to the engine the way it was then, but it had a big error that my dad couldn't fix, so we had to restart. We aren't even up to programing in enemies! Also, the characters aren't even in the game yet, it's my dad's characters, not mine, and only one. (there will be a lot more than that in the final game) | |

| Now, my dad's stuck with a problem that there's no way I can fix, and it's taking him a while to do it, also. He says it might not be ready until December '08! | |

| As soon as I can. The first one is in my avatar.
Anyway, he fixed the problem. Checklist Engine movement check gravity check jumping check scrolling check (fianlly, been stuck at that for 2 months) platforms check enemies no bosses no powerups no energy no (energy is a countdown clock for the level) health no (getting hit by an enemy lowers your health, if you get to 0 you die) dying no lives no game over no points and high scores no (might not happen) Internet compatibility no saving game no debugging no (when everything above this is check, I'll release alpha demo with testing characters) Actual game character implementation not started yet sounds not started yet level design not started yet (I'll break this into worlds when I'm up to it) (beta demo is released after completion of world 1)
ETA for alpha demo: First quarter 08 ETA for beta demo: first half 08 ETA actual game: second half 08 (this could easily change) | |

possibly. Most likely, there will be a high-scorse thing. Possibly not. Internet compatibility also means Kongregate.com. | |

| UPDATE!!!
VERY early alpha demo coming by January 15th. (unless something causes the programming to come to a complete halt) (if we're lucky, it could come by Jan. 1st) This version will be the test world, test characters, testing enemies, and testing graphics. It will really only be to catch any bugs. the second alpha demo will probably have a boss level, too, plus corrected bugs from the early alpha demo. The beta demo will have the first world of the actual game, including the boss level, with little or no changes from what it will be in the end, except minor bug fixes. I'll post updates as they come. Right now, fast progress is being made. outlook: very good Delay: negative delay ETA for early alpha demo: January 15th of earlier ETA for second alpha demo: January or Febuary ETA for beta demo: March-May ETA actual game: third quarter 08 or early fourth quarter 08 (this could easily change) | |
