My First Game

Hello everyone :)

I recently joined the world of game making. I created my fist mini-game in Processing. It’s very simple: http://www.ballrunner.hostzi.com/

Please tell me what you think of it!

Well you should add graphics and sound for a start.

Then you might want to think about adding some sort of variation so the player has something to look forward to. Maybe the blocks start traveling left and right a little.

Cool ideas for improvement is that the blocks could change texture to the beat. How about power-ups? There could be a simple power-up that acts as a reverse magnet (pushes the blocks away) or one that slows the game down a little. Or maybe even on of those invincible powerups.

Also, you could have lives. They might be represented as rings around your player. When a block hits you, the block explodes and one of your rings evaporates. Then, maybe every 1,000 points, there’ll be a life power-up :)

Hope you take the inspiration ;D

Nice Game.

I think it’s a great idea for a first game.

I got around 3700 points. Keep on working!

Thanks 馃榾 And BTW there is a serious bug: after 1000 blocks pass, they stop appearing! I MUST fix that.

Not a bad game for your first. Like others say it would be better with more stuff like power-ups and sound. Also, you are using the picture’s top left corner for collision detection. It would be more accurate if you used the center point. But still good game! 馃榾

I think it’s great for a first game. I use processing too!
