Slime Salad

This is a project I started about a year ago. Couldn't turn it into anything. Now I probably never will, just cause it's been too long. Still, I thought I had an interesting thing going. I'm posting this here so that it's not forever sitting in the bowels of my Documents folder. Of course, if anyone...

It's nice to have a lot of little fixes that make the engine smoother to navigate and operate! You guys are swift at making those fixes. Never fails to satisfy. Personally, I prefer that the mouse works well in custom as a whole before the map editor. I mean, we're all used to the way it works now. ...

I thought it was amazing how quick and easy it is to get a sidescroller out of these new commands. I fixed the gravity delay and added a container slice that is the appropriate dimensions of the sprite. That makes it feel much better. I also find the animation definitions script confusing. I just di...

Hello again. I took the scripts from [game]Pixel-Walker[/game] and reworked them into a sidescrolling tech demo, [game]Dwimmerplatformy[/game]. It worked out really well! Took me hardly any time to do it, and it works even better than pixel-walker. Some of the commenting, especially on the animation...

I rehashed the scripts I used for [game]Pixel-Walker[/game] and turned them into a platformer tech demo. I added in gravity and acceleration/friction. There's one known bug where the player may pass through a wall when coming at a corner from a diagonal. Other than that it works pretty smoothly, and...

Thank you for the questions! A lot of things sort of go over my head. As a general answer, the current demo is actually less playable than when I was first working on it, which is just a product of me changing all of the battle math and not rebalancing everyone's stats. Because I'm still testing all...

[game]Fear Tactics[/game] I've been working consistently on Fear Tactics probably for longer than any other game I've worked on. I decided it was probably time to start a dev log or something, if not only to keep myself on track and maybe get some feedback along the way. All the dev logs I see on h...

Awesome! I remember finding this and thinking how cool it looked. I'm hyped that a big mechanical roadblock is taken care of now. Hopefully we'll get to see some gameplay pretty soon.

Would there be a possibility for the A* pathfinding implemented recently to include zone data at some point? When I was reading about the A* algorithm, I remember it mentioning assigning a sort of "difficulty" value to each location/tile before seeking the shortest route. I don't actually ...

Along with the new stable release came a wide variety of awesome new features. I took some time today to play around with one of those in a way that hopefully others will find useful. Using the "move slice with wallchecking()" and "check wall collision x/y()" on a walkabout sprit...

Pixel-Walker is an 8-directional movement framework for the OHR intended to act as a replacement for default grid-based movement. Run the included .rpg file to see the scripts in action. When compiling the scripts into your own project, make sure all .hss files are in one location, and compile "...

Ah, right. I think I remember that being mentioned. I'm just using an old nightly, so I neglect these things.

That should hopefully eliminate any confusion about which bits are on/off when using the mouse. fanTASTic. That looks so much better. One of my complaints about the mouse functionality was that when you were using the keyboard, the mouse highlighting just gets in the way, even if you move it off th...

Ealdorman - the chief officer in a district (such as a shire) in Anglo-Saxon England

Or Echinopluteus - the pluteus larva of an echinoid, which is a fancy term for a sea urchin.

There are example scripts on the wiki for 3-frame walking. How familiar are you with plotscripting?
