DeerHunter1066 v1.2 UPDATE!

[StoneCrow]

Just finished and uploaded a small update that gives you the option to base your player colour on your score and health (so it looks different) and adds dig-dug mode which makes it a little easier.
The level at the bottom right is the current wave and i didn't know there was a bug i'll try and fix it for tommorow.

So far, what time did you work on it ? Just to make the first release ? I saw 5 hours in comments...
What part took you much time ?
Before starting did you have a precise idea on how to code this ? So that the 5 hours were full time coding ...
Or you just started typing randomly and end up with something working ?

my arm is hurt... I gave up at level 71...

Another problem is that some combinations of background/UI indicator colors made stats completely unreadable.

Well I would say it was about 7 hours now including the art, I had a pretty precise idea of the game i wanted to make before i started though and the saving, menus and animation system are all from older projects. The dig-dug mode was originally a bug from accidentally leaving a "return" somewhere and it took me about 45mins to work out (lol tried everything before i spotted it) but thats included in the time, now putting it back in along with the colour stuff took 20mins
All in i would say the whole game took 7 hours to program (keep in mind the scoreboard doesnt work yet haha).

Another problem is that some combinations of background/UI indicator colors made stats completely unreadable.

I just think of it as extra challenge haha.

eh eh, call it laziness for not doing a contrast detector or get safe colors. I think if you make it always white it could be always readable.

EDITED: Experienced new version. Liked the color option. Don't get it the Did Dug mode. The game freezes time from time? Well, the game already is too easy for me, I need an anti-Did Dug version.

Nice work Stone.

Gee, I gave up at level 37...
I intend to think that these bambies are kinda evolved self-thinking specied ...
Keyboard got busted.

Yeah white might actually be a good idea, will probably do that in an update with a slightly better hud in. Whenever you stop moving on the digdug setting everything else stops moving.
Also thanks for all the feedback guys .

Ah got it thanks. But if I keep moving left/right it will end be the same as normal (and easy) game.
