Yay, new features!

Posted 10th May 09, by Codemonkey

So here I am thinking I'm just about done with Coal, when Kisguri says "IT NEEDS SOMETHING MORE, HOW ABOUT PARRALAX SCROLLING".

I think it makes it look a bit cluttered, but what do you guys think?

Then I came up with this idea on how to make an "Ghost" replay very easy like, so I tried it out and what do you know, it worked!

Yep, this ones a keeper. I've been trying like heck to get it so it can play multiple replays at the same time, so you can see your last 10 deaths playing out, but it's proving to be quite a pain.

The parallax scrolling makes it a little confusing in my opinion about whats real and what isn't.

That's deep.

I don't think Kisguri meant that with Parralax Scrolling, i think he meant add a background that looks cool when moving around.

Like Moving stars, just not Screening the background with the front... that will put a few people off... unless that was your intention to make that game more difficult?

I think it looks neat, but it would be less confusing if the parallax background were solid (Like Mistah Bodgah said) or at least not made up of so many little separated pieces.

I think you should really darken the parallax layers, it probably looks ace in motion but it's much too bright.

I think it's a cool feature and all, but it's pretty cluttered. I agree with Dr James, they're pretty bright.

You could have a splash of colour in the background. Make it look like it's in front of a spinning galaxy or something might look nice.

Great ideas, I'll probably try them all.

Great idea, maybe just to re-iterate what everyone else is suggesting one way or another, but darken the background to ease confusion.

Other than that, man i cannot wait for this bad-boy Tasteful Codemonkey!!

Yeah, the moving stars is probably worth a try...
