PlatformGuy! V0.4

Uh, for me the new download still ends after the first level...

P.S., did you miss my suggestion? I don't know if I made it clear that I'm pretty sure the game will be broken without that fix, it's not just the indentation I'm worried about.

[Qcode]

EDIT: I tried the for loop you suggested, does not work, says expected userdata.

I'm sorry, make that

Code: Select all

for i = 1, P_bullets do
     g.draw(B_pic, i*32, 26, math.rad(-90), 4, 4)
end

I saw it and took the advice of orginization, and WOW... I did the same mistake twice. D:< Tired mistake, the download will be fixed now.

And Do you all really not like that he runs mid-air? I can change that :p I liked it though

Putting "ends" at random places until it gives no errors is a bad practice. Try using whitespaces in your code. Something like :

Code: Select all

for i=1, 100 do
    if i < 50 then
        print("i is less than 50 and is currently equal to" .. i)
    end
end

Instead of :

Code: Select all

for i=1,100 do
if i<50 then
print("i is less than 50 and is currently equal to"..i)
end
end

Of course, it's up to the programmer if he wants different styles or not. I am just suggesting a cleaner, readable style. If you wanna learn more, there's a wikipedia page about programming styles.

I always try to organize code like this. What Puzz was referencing was pretty much just me being a newb and forgetting end's after statements then making up for it by putting them at the bottom of the function. Thanks for the help though

Ah, and yet still probs with love.draw... You may notice that Nsmurf's congratulations no longer prints on level 2. This' should fix that, if I'm understanding how the secret works :

Code: Select all

function love.draw()
	if secret == "OFF MOFO" then
		bulletdraw()
      
		if startstate == "starting" then
			g.setFont(small)
			g.print("Hello! Welcome To PlatformGuy!", 266, 220)
			g.print("Controls Are: Arrow Keys,",266, 240)
			g.print("Enter To Restart LvL,",266, 260)
			g.print("Spacebar to shoot, (Try shooting Spikes!)",266,280)
			g.print("S to change Skin!",266,300)
			g.print("Press Enter To Start!",266,320)
		elseif gamestate == "lvl 2" then
			g.setColor(0,255,0,100)
			g.print("Congratz to Nsmurf for finding the Waffles!",40,268)
		elseif gamestate == "lvl 4" then
			g.setColor(255,255,255,255)
			g.draw(tile,768,320,0,2,2,0)
		end
      
		enemy_draw()
		  
		playerdraw()
		  
		mapdraw()
		  
		bullet_counter_draw()
		  
		g.setFont(small)
		g.print("Deaths:" .. P_deaths, 300, 5)
		  
		secret_draw()
		  
		  
		  --DEBUGGING
		  
			 --print( P_storedY ,5, 65)
			 --print( P_timer )
			 --print( P_storedY - player.y)
			 --print( player.x)
			 --print( player.y)
			 --print( B_x )
			 --print( B_y )
		  
		  --------------------------------
	elseif secret == "ON MOFO" then
		g.setColor(255,255,255,255)
		g.setFont(small)
		g.print("HOW DID YOU FIND THIS?! YOU SHOULDN't BE HERE!",32,32)
		g.print("Well, since you're here,reply on my LOVE2D, post,",32,64)
		g.print("' I found the secret, and I DIDN'T USE THE CODE TO HELP. '",32,96)
		g.print(" :) ",32,128)
		g.print("Press '1' and 'Enter' at the same time to continue",32,160)
	end
end

Man Puzz, you always got my back xD

So, what does everyone think should be in 0.5?
Moving platforms? or
A new location? (The lab) or
A actual ending screen?

Tell me what you think!

So, what does everyone think should be in 0.5?

Here's a tougie - procedural generated levels.

[WolfNinja2]

Procedural means like there will always be some thing there no matter what? (Like let's say the ground, and a way to get to the door? )
Or
There's a pattern of some sort.

I think I could do randomn generation but I have no idea how to make it work like that up there lol.

Sounds like a fun challenge though!!!!
