The whole presentation as you run the game and cycle between the menu and arena is very cool.


I'm going to eat you!

Btw, your website is broken - It doesn't work in any browsers other than Internet Explorer...

Nice game master! I liked the multiplayer aspect the best, and it proves how much you can do with darkBASIC classic!

Thanks!(for..whatever it is you did...)

Blanky,
I see that the reason the site isn't working on the Mozilla Turbomantis is because the site is designed with left and right postitioning, but, just for you, I'll change it and make table. This should then work for those not-so-popular-or-widly-used browsers. The next thing is the broken navigational bars. Sorry for them, but, you can still read what they should display because of the alt= command.

And, I didn't ask for comments about my site, I asked about my game, so, I see my site doesn't work, what do you think of the game?

Oh, thanks for the comments r333, I'll use it for my site, thanks a whole lot.

From my site, you can now view animations of live game play. I can't get a video recorder to take pictures of my game internally, so I designed my own .gif recorder. The pictures can be viewed below as well as from this link: http://slayer-battletanks.tripod.com/animation_index.htm

ROFL - 'Mozilla Turbomantis' is the Mozilla FireFox 1.1 alpha (not quite beta yet) with the auto-name-changing plugin installed

Anyway, the game has been competently designed, and it looks like you can jump straight into a game, nomatter of your previous FPS experience.

All right blanky, I made the site's home page into frames, test that now would ya'? I don't have Firefox installed on this computer.

Thanks for the compliments. But, I'm still open for more, keep throwing them.

I've added another level to game that you can play: Fort McDonald. This is a fort with a center and flag. Here is a quick screenshot (a few days old, I'll post a new one soon):


I'm going to add textures and trees. Right now I'm working on a brick texture, a flag texture, a ground texture, and inserting random trees to make it look like a plaza in the middle of a fort.

It took me a while to add collisions to keep the player inside, because, the objects weren't colliding with the walls! So I added an extensive coded feature that gets the position of the tank and checks to see if x position is out of bounds, or if thez position is out of bounds. All of this (the whole process) took me darn near 3 hours.

I'm still working on colliding with the trees, because, the tank almost moves past the tree, so I'll have to found the x and z values of all of the trees to apply it for collisions. That is one of my major failures in programming. The first, is the lack of a great modelling program. *sigh*

So, tell me what you think of my game so far, and, who knows, I might even add your comment to my site.

I just added more texturing and a sky sphere. Here are 2 screenshots of this:

Today I made a cool day to night changer. Just like in racing games, the sky changes from day to night. Mine changes three times like this: 2 mintues into game: sun down, 4 minutes into game: night. The rest is just night. The first minutes up to the 2 minutes is just a sky. (Show in my pic)


As always, I'd appreciate any comments. Thanks

Here is another level I'm making:


This is a castle style level, name not yet chosen. This features a 600(width)x 400(width) map and a really cool castle prop and sky spheres. A day-night changer will be installed soon.

As always, please send comments this way, or visit my comment/question form on my site here: http://www.slayerbattletanks.tk
