Turtle: Puzzles [Beta]

[Turtle95]

MapMaker is in! Now to prompt an "upload" to the .png of the map. And determine which level you want it.

Also, TITLE SCREEN!

[rokit]

Also if you wanna make a level post the png here. were gonna post colors later.

[Turtle95]

Today's been productive, the next demo comes out soon today.

DO NOT CHANGE THIS WIDTH OR HEIGHT OF THE MAP.png!



Map stuffs:

Code: Select all

 if (red == 0 && green == 0 && blue == 0) { // wall mofo
                map[j][i] = (int)1;
             }
             if (red == 255 && green == 255 && blue == 255) { // air mofo
                map[j][i] = (int)0;
             }
             if (red == 255 && green == 106 && blue == 0) { // door mofo
                map[j][i] = (int)3;
             }
             if (red == 255 && green == 0 && blue == 0) { // lava mofo
                map[j][i] = (int)4;
             }
             if (red == 128 && green == 128 && blue == 128) { // button mofo
                map[j][i] = (int)5;
             }
             if (red == 255 && green == 255 && blue == 0) { // ladder mofo
                map[j][i] = (int)2;
             }
             if (red == 0 && green == 0 && blue == 255) { // goal mofo
                 map[j][i] = (int)9;
              }
             if (red == 255 && green == 106 && blue == 255) { // coin mofo
                 map[j][i] = (int)12;
              }
             if (red == 0 && green == 255 && blue == 255) { // lever mofo
                 map[j][i] = (int)7;
              }
             if (red == 0 && green == 255 && blue == 33) { // fake wall mofo
                 map[j][i] = (int)8;
              }
             if (red == 172 && green == 145 && blue == 255) { // water mofo
                 map[j][i] = (int)11;
              }
             if (red == 178 && green == 0 && blue == 255) { // spikes mofo
                 map[j][i] = (int)10;
              }
             if (red == 0 && green == 148 && blue == 255) { // pit mofo
                 map[j][i] = (int)13;
              }
             if (red == 79 && green == 152 && blue == 255) { // invisible block mofo
                 map[j][i] = (int)14;
              }
             if (red == 255 && green == 134 && blue == 79) { // switch for #14 mofo
                 map[j][i] = (int)15;
              }
             if (red == 0 && green == 255 && blue == 93) { // spawn mofo
                 map[j][i] = (int)16;
              }

actually, i made it so it can be any width or any height, but i guess this is a good size.

Unfortunately, to make level 1 a .png file, it had to be fixed at 20px x 15 so don't change that image's width or height.

[Turtle95]

New demo is out! There's a title screen, and I added:

Custom maps in the format of a .png
Restart level option if you are stuck
Level 4

[TheJonyMyster]

Alright, is there ANYTHING I can do!?! besides sprites cuz somebody always makes better... gosh

[Turtle95]

1) stop complaining

2) you (or anyone) can contribute by making a map.

[TheJonyMyster]

nvm, can't code. PEACE OUT Y'ALL

[rokit]

Heh they're PNGs.

[Hatninja]

imagine coding using only a png
that would be awesome
and also hard

Well not many of you really learned a coding language. I know how to interpret what is what in a for loop through the map array which is used from a png file.

[Turtle95]

Updated the first post on Teleporters!

[Qcode]

This good for a level?

[Turtle95]

This good for a level?

No, it won't work because:

A) It's fully filled with walls

B) No spawn.

[Qcode]

It was meant to be a joke :P.

[renhoek]

I have no idea if this works because I couldn't figure out how to get it to launch :P but I gave it a shot

as you can obviously tell it's one of those "Special" levels.

You should always test the level. It looks fine though. I can't check right now. Gotta sleep soon. School tomorrow.

that's the thing I couldn't figure out how to launch it. :S

[Hatninja]

did you watch the how to video?

[Turtle95]

did you watch the how to video?

People should see that there's a how-to video (the one you made Hat) in the first post. It's the second video.

[Turtle95]

I'm going to stream in probably a half hour, cause I gotta do some Pre-Calc homework. I'll be making a linking system!

EDIT: Stream is up!

[rokit]

goddammit no stream.

[Hatninja]

dont you look at the time and date on the posts?

[Mari064]

turtle how do you run this?

[Turtle95]

turtle how do you run this?

You need Eclipse Juno (Front post link) as well ask JDK 1.7 (also in the first post). There's a tutorial on how to install it in a video (which again, is in the first post)

[Mari064]

Not a video!my computer takes hours to load one

[idiot9.0]

No offense, but the "How to play demo" video kinda is a bad tutorial. I watched it and really didn't know what the heck to do. A written tutorial or a better video would be useful for those wanting to try it.

[rokit]

Well eclipse is such a bitch it wont build us a jar.
Wait till turtle sends me the newest ver and ill find something out.

[Turtle95]

Theoretically, it IS the latest one. I haven't done much. I added title screen music if anything. And a Readme on the stuff in the game.

well i did the best i could do

[Turtle95]

Hey guys, thought you'd like to know I am starting something else. It's not done yet. At all. Thanks to Hatninja for the falling bridge animation!

EDIT: It's also laggy because FRAPS makes lag.

[renhoek]

nice job so far but may I ask what this mario clone's for?

It's my old AP computer science final. There's gonna be more. Don't worry.

[Qcode]

So, I'm not sure if this is going to be final or not, but work has started on Turtle: Puzzles in love. Just so people can run it a lot easier. Whether or not the java version is being scrapped is uncertain at the moment.

Well, QCode, I will keep the java one, in case the Love version fails. Although since you made your "bighead" game in Love, I'll probably need your help.

[Qcode]

Yeah, I'm working on this right now. I'll send you it once I've got stuff working.

[Turtle95]

Sorry for the bump, however, I have good news. The LOVE Edition is slowly making progress. I just finished the animations and directional stuff and jumping (with jumping sound) right now for the turtle. I believe QCode is also working on the editor still (when he has time to, of course!)

[Turtle95]

Hey guys, we at TTI have a nice little contest if you want the Beta! Here's the topic link:

Update:
Pyromaniac's made a nice forum just for all you fans of Turtle: Puzzles, so if you want to join:

Haven't been on here in awhile.

Could you put a link to the forum in the first post?

Done. You should bookmark our forum so that you don't have to go here to get to it.

[Turtle95]

2 days ago, me and Pyro decided to put Turtle: Puzzles LOVE Edition onto IndieDB! Check it out! Rank (as of now) 146 of over 6,000 titles! Over 150 views too!

http://www.indiedb.com/games/turtle-puzzles

[Camewel]

That's probably just people viewing your game because it's the newest. You've fallen out of the top 1000.

[rokit]

now in the 500

[Bonko]

483 now. Also, in latest news, in two posts, this topic will hit page three and will recieve the animation.

[freakstorm101]

O RLY?

[Bonko]

Yes. This is the last post on page 2
