[COMPLETE] Making a laserdisk arcade game! "Get Lucky" progress thread..

[supadave]

Launched the website for the game.. Figured why not.. www.gamecadeproduction.com  Nothing to see there but a placeholder really..

I sent the game out to a few members from this board for beta testing. Haven't really heard much back yet. Could be good news, could be bad news.    I know there is one major bug that I fixed today that may be causing some issues for them. I just hope the expectation isn't too high. The game was built on alot of speculation on what could be done and can't be done. I have a good grasp on the programming and now know what can and can't be done. I'm looking forward to making another one with all the new found knowledge that came out of this one.

Don't sell yourself short man. I'm having lots of fun with it. So far the only issue I've been having is the front menu system being slow to respond if I scroll over the items quickly. Not that it gets slow but it stops letting me select a new game or to continue if I zip by all the items and then try to select one. Not really a big deal though, I don't imagine many people do that.

There is an issue with starting another game after finishing or loosing a game there is a strike sound effect and some issues with spacebar strikes. If you close the application and restart it you will be fine. Basically a value was not being reset between games but that's been fixed.. Everyone who has the Beta copy has this issue as of right now. I will release Beta2 next week for those who have been giving me feedback so please keep the feeback coming. I've taken some suggestions and they will be implemented into Beta2. Look for a txt file in beta 2 that will explain those changes.

Thanks again for all the help..

Actually Yes, but i'm not sure if we will be able to make the changes needed. We are going to try.. Here is a demo video of the game I threw together today. Enjoy.. Right now the game is just $4.99 over at our site, www.gamecadeproduction.com

Also we were the feature article on Kataku.com It got the treatment that I fully expected to get from our FMV game. Yes it's cheesy, we knew it would be, and we embrace it.

Here is a review from another site that enjoyed the game quite a bit. YAY! Gamecast.net

I would simply like to Bump this as there might be some new hobbyist who are unaware of this project that I created.

NOTE: The video below is of the full version and the pics are from the arcade version. The arcade is very much so like an arcade game would be. Insert coin, play. Game over. No frills or extra's. Just remember that F1 opens up the options menu so you can set your buttons or set it to free play or have it accept coins if you want. Game is 1024x768 full screen only. If you have any other questions feel free to ask.

About the Game It's just FMV quick time events similar to Dragons Lair. Press the direction arrow when it flashes. Be quick or you will get a strike. 3 strikes and you're out with this chick. Unlock the bonus game with a perfect run including all 4 Post it bonus scenes. Unlock hidden Posted notes scenes by pressing the action button when you spot a hidden Post it note. (Tip: first post it is at the very beginning right when he flashes back to his garage story) The rest are much easier to spot.

This is a sequel to a very short and not so great project I did years ago called "Survival 1:Horror". If anyone is interested in trying the first one out you can snag it for free HERE WHERE THE LINK IS.  The second one is nothing like the first so that's why you won't see it listed on my website. it's not that great at all so don't judge the sequel from it.
