Hello all;

I just wrote this a few minutes ago, it is going to be a puzzle game. the object is to move all your rooks to their corresponding goals (the little triangles). the catch is the piece moves as far as it can until it hits a wall or another piece. I am attaching a 1 level demo, I plan to add three levels of difficulty each with a varying number of pieces and about 100 or so levels. Give it a try, help me come up with a good name for it. I know the graphics stink I just needed a some placeholders for now.

mouse selects the pieces and arrows move them

Thanks in advance

Is it normal you can't win yet? Else than that, yeah pretty good!

Actually you can win in 12 moves, give it another try, though when you win it just ends the program at the moment

Ah yes, looked over it . I thought it stopped at the destination too... (like the game on my Sony Ericsson)

I have added a little more to the demo (3 levels now) these all represent easy boards, the difficult boards will be larger and have six pieces to get into place. Enjoy, and please help me with a good name.

Do you still need help naming it or did you name it Rooks? (that's what it said on the title screen)

That name was just a place holder, the name is appropriate but lacks any style I think. I am still looking for a good name for it thanks for any help you guys can provide.

When FPSC develops enough, lets make a Redwall game!

TiltBoard
Earthquake

Or make it like the Star Ship Enterprise, when people bash from side to side during a battle. You have to get to the firing button to shoot the attacking ship.

Call it....

Star Wreck

you are starting to be a n00b spammer person, if you can post productive things people will like you better. if you can help people, people will like you better. if you dont do anything you're a waste of stace on the board.

TriTilt
TriBash
PolySmash

i think Sunflash was making a serious suggestion. besides, you shouldn't be calling people noob spammer people right after you post [/quote]DB doesnt count as a language, it counts as a couple sloppily programmed string messes.

load object "object.x",1

seriously people...[/quote]

Thanks for the ideas guys. I like the name Tri-tilt but there will be boards with more than 3 pieces so let me work with that, any other suggestions will be appreciated however.
