Title: Try my Flash game!
Post by: Flip_Willie on February 15, 2009, 06:25:42 pm
Hey everyone,

A couple of years ago, I made a flash game, and I just got around to posting it on Newgrounds.com. I would be thrilled for you to try it. I also would be thrilled to hear your thoughts.

I would like to state, that it really isn't meant to be very serious. It was definitely intended to be more "humorous" than fun.  I am only an amateur flash programmer. It is more a hobby than anything else.

Anyway, have a look, if you don't have anything else better to do.

Thanks!

It's okay. The intro's funny. Some slight changes would make it better. The ghosts can easily out-pace you. They don't chase you unless you get a certain distance from them.

I am glad you liked the intro.

Yes, some slight changes would make it better, but I am hesitant to re-visit old code.

The ghosts speed and chase distance increase incrementally according to the number of "travels" you have gone. If you play long enough, they will chase you from one side of the screen to the other.

I suppose I could have made the changes more gradual, but then the game would have been slower. For me, I enjoy the fact that it gets hectic quickly.

No doubt, however, that it could be better.
