This will be my entry for the Intel Competition, called 'BRIXOID'. It's a 'Break Out'- clone, a simple and (hopefully) fun game, with lots of special effects for everyone to enjoy. I'm hoping that my graphics and my selfmade music and sound effects will get me a prize, but I'm sure that the rest of the contestants are hoping the same for their game, right?
What the game will have:
- 25 levels (maybe more, though
);
- A complete level editor (which I'm working on right now);
- 11 power-ups/downs:
* a power-up that grows the paddle
* a power-down that shrinks the paddle
* a power-up that activates a lasercanon to shoot the bricks
* a power-up that speeds up the paddle movement
* a power-down that inverses the paddle direction
* a power-up that activates the 'CRUSHER' (an electrical beam that destroys the bricks upon contact)
* a power-up that activates the 'DESTRUCTOR' (an electrically charged ball that destroys the bricks upon contact, which has the ability to drive trough complete rows of bricks without bouncing back)
* a power-down that speeds up the upwards movement of the deadly laserbeam
* a power-up that glues the ball to the paddle
* a power-up that adds 1 life (not in 'EXTREME' mode)
* a 'SURPRISE'-power-up that drops deadly bombs or bonus-diamonds
- A pause feature;
- A highscoretable (if I can, I'll make it an online one
)
- Four difficulty levels to choose from (Easy, Medium, Hard and Extreme);
- Several songs to choose (made by myself with FL Studio). There will probably be a heavy metalsong too, which I recorded with my guitar and FL Studio.
- A colorpicker to change the color of the ball;
- Nine different themes (skins) to select (i.e. Silver, Army, Purple Dream, etc...).
- and maybe some other things I can come up with...
Here's a screenie of the Main Menu:
