Re: The Legend of Zelda : Chiming Bell

- Looks nice, plays decently. I also liked playing with all the items. One item did error out for me. The bombs, I threw one and it said some error about unknown variable "ch".

- I see you have a few tunics in mind, that will be interesting.

- The movement is good, but when you go into another room in a diagonal (holding down both directions), it cuts off that movement in the next room, and goes in a linear direction. I also faced the movement just stopping (On a previously held key) occasionally when entering another room. I'm also not too much of a fan of the fast diagonals. However, not a big deal.

- There are at least 2 places where the entrance to another room is hidden by the HUD. Attached an image.

- The design for the castle with the swords is very nicely done. Overall the designs are well done.

Keep up the good work!

Re: The Legend of Zelda : Chiming Bell

you need corner cutting, but other than that it's good

if place_free(x,y,z) {wrong number of arguments to function or script}

ch = Fixed.
Tunics = Thanks. They're mainly for armour.
Movement = There's nothing I can really do about it. It's to do with GM. Though I will see if I can beat it. Any help with this fix I'd appreciate
2 Rooms = I'll fix that now.
Design = Thanks

I shall solve this feedback after Im done with the current room

(Btw, corner cutting?)

Are you using direct key checks? keyboard_check_direct. May solve your issues.

Re: The Legend of Zelda : Chiming Bell

have a look at 4sword/goodnight's example, it'll help with the movement.

I fecking love you man! The glitch has finally been fixed!

EDIT: Another province is complete. I'll release it but I'll be taking a small break to get ahead of the future uni work. The next Province is incredibly quick. It's one room right now. (Whaa?) Though the last province is 95 rooms (Holy crap right?)

EDIT: During my break, please vote. It'll decide how I approach the next 2 provinces

Love it, but shouldn't the flowers be like grass, solid and cuttable?

I'll add one of these later.

It's a work in progress. They come in Misc part of the schedule

EDIT: Done about 20% of the tracks. I have gotten to the switch point.

Awesome. you should have enemies that climb on the train and you need to use gravity boots to climb on too and kill them. it could be an acheivment!

Re: The Legend of Zelda : Chiming Bell

The only thing I can really think of that you must must must must must fix that's always bugged the crap outta me is that enemies need to get knocked back when you hit them. It completely ruins the GB feel when you swing and they just stand their ground :X

Re: The Legend of Zelda : Chiming Bell

Tried the overworld demo.

- I must say that the screen is rather high. The game seems to be made for a widescreen monitor put on its side.

- I hate the diagonal movement, it is freaking fast and with Link having already a pretty fast isothetic movement the diagonal becomes even faster.

- When swimming in water the game becomes unresponsive to the controls, I assume this because Link is drowning and not swimming.

- Your game could use some corner cutting, because it is freaking annoying when I get stuck behind a single pixel.

- When I get stuck, Link goes into the pushing animation. If I released the key the pushing sprite remains, although it is no longer animated.

- When trying to leave castle town the game gets stuck.

- Your collision detection with water could use some work.

Notice that the enemies aren't 100% complete. I haven't forgotten about it. Don't worry it'll be there

Screen - It's the size it is for GB. I won't be fixing this.

Movement - It seems fine to me. Though I'll see what I can do.

Swimming - Yeh he's drowning. Not swimming. I haven't changed the sprites yet.

Corner Cutting - I don't know how to but I can shorten the player's mask if you want.

Leaving - I did warn you all.

Water Collision - Yeh I've been trying to fix that.

Re: The Legend of Zelda : Chiming Bell

Niek is pretty much right though; the movement is way off if you're going for 1:1 to the GB. As for screen size, it's true that your w/h is the same, but your room size is 16 pixels too big.

Corner cutting is when you make Link move automatically to avoid obstacles; usually within 8 pixels of the edges of the colliding object.

I still dont understand the problem with the screen size.

I can implement corner cutting within the hour.

But Im stuck on pit/water collisions. Can someone help me with this one?

Re: The Legend of Zelda : Chiming Bell

There's nothing wrong with your screensize; but you have a HUD that takes up 16 horizontal pixels of that realestate that you shouldn't be using for mapping. The tops of your rooms should disappear

Re: The Legend of Zelda : Chiming Bell

You have sent out several demos from concepts.. do you need a full one to move back to WIP?
