I know it probably sounds redundant for an engine requiring another engine to run it, but is that the case and I just missed it when scanning over the above posts? Oh, and in what coding language are you scripting it in.. or what program for compiling?

ChuChu Posts: 53 Group: ChuChu Member #12,426 Joined: December 8, 2009	My apologies for the double post, but I need an enemy suggestion. Requirements are; -Must have appeared in a NES/Gameboy game. -Needs to scream (or be in between that and "just look like") 2nd weakest. -Should be simple; not Goomba simple, but nothing too big. -Shouldn't be too big in size. -Cannot be from Mario, only exception being that it's an obsecure Mario enemy. I know it's small and stupid, but i'm sort of on a stump here. There's so many to choose from... ): Edited by A_Bored_Game_Dev, Dec 31 2009, 08:34 PM.

As for an enemy suggestion, I'll see if my mind can conjure anything up. I'd suggest something from the Kirby series though, they're all pretty weak and mesh up with the Mario theme fairly well.

That might explain it; GM8's designed for Vista/7. I'll look into it... Oh, and the game's actually not meant to be Mario themed, it's more Nintendo altogether. Either way, Kirby enemies would fit. I've posted the same question at another board, and i've actually only got Kirby enemy suggestions.

You could jump on him, and he would explode after a second, killing all near enimies

Anywho, don't worry about suggestions anymore, i'm currently programming in hopping Waddle Dees. Anywho, i'm surprised I got this in so early in production, but i've finally got a good save engine down. I couldn't find anything from a NES game that was a visual representation of saving, so I had to resort to something from a SNES game. And which comes to mind more than the save plate from Kirby Super Star? I've got it to save almost everything you need, including the suit you're wearing and the direction you're facing, which is awesome, because i've never tried making a save engine, and this one came out pretty well. (:

The only thing is, when you jump or flap the wings that you get, there's that really annoying beeping sound. But, yeah, cool.

Bingo Bango Bongo Posts: 1,489 Group: Yoshi Member #12,036 Joined: June 8, 2009 Gender Male	That's what I meant, yeah. There should be at least an option to mute it once you've made the real thing.
