I thought there was a bitset that caused the enemy's picture to be flipped horizontally, kind of like a "confuse" effect in some games. I guess I was mistaking though.

Checking for enemy orientation

Is there any way to check if an enemy has had its picture reversed in combat before an attack is made? I thought it might be possible with tags, but looking further into I'm not sure how it would work.

Any idea or suggestions would be much appreciated.

So it doesn't have to be a new game? I guess the rules don't specify. (edit) looking at the prizes again, you better hope I don't take 3rd It can be an addition to another game. I've allowed RMZ to do such in the past, and it wouldn't be right for me to change that now. I did make specific note on ...

#36 will be the April HamsterSpeak, which is where the results will be listed. I won't be able to participate, but I'd enjoy reviewing the games. If we end up with two separate sets of reviews I guess that works out fine, but you've been writing a lot of content lately and I've been writing very li...

Sorry.

I played for years but haven't played in quite sometime. I still have an urge to play every now and then but I doubt I ever will again.

I know this doesn't help you, but I thought I'd add anyways.

Importing 16 color palette

You know, I did this without any problems for the 2008 8-bit contest, but I'm having trouble this time. I have a 16 color master palette, saved in 8-bit/bmp format. I'm guessing that is correct? Anyways, I go to import it, and the colors remain the same from the default master palette. What am I doi...

2010 OHR 8-Bit Contest!

Ok guys, I know it is sudden, but I had to do it. I just thought about an idea for a game that needs to be done, now. I could have stewed on it for a couple of months, brewing over the ideas and figuring out the design, but that wouldn't be fair. I want the playing field to be level, which is why th...

I was actually surprised about the Hours review myself. I was expecting to play the game and love it, just like I used to back in the day. I couldn't lie though, the game is not very great. I suppose I just had different tastes back then. Machine Saga is just something I stumbled upon last month and...

I channel the vast majority of my reviewing energy towards the Hamsterspeak Magazine and my website. I should, however, continue cross-posting my reviews from other sites here. I just haven't had much time to do that recently.

If you could make a caucasian colored slime with a brown afro and a full beard, that would be sweet. He is the main character from the next game in the Attack Fish series I am working on. Still waiting on this...from two years ago :D It's funny though because I haven't started on that game yet. I h...

I'll definitely check it out, but won't be able to start up the server until Thursday most likely. I'm hoping that James will be able to post information about it on his site, as well as SS and CP. I think that it could be a really nifty help/social tool and perhaps be an occasional place to channel...

Duck Duck is not dead! I had to pack up and move suddenly this past week, which killed the vast majority of my time for any extracurricular stuff. I had enough time to work on some features for the Hamster Wheel and complete some stuff for Hamsterspeak, but that's it. I should be back into the swing...
