How would you make a character forced to go right like in jetpack joyride, and jump? Please answer! :3

at your label(ex: @A), put this code: @label X=X+3

that is the force to right. i will give a pub code in a bit

Or, you could make the character not move at all (except for up and down, of course) and make the background move left.

thanks! pls give public code ;)

My flappy bird senses are tingling! *I hope he's making a flappy bird clone, w8 he can hear me :0

I was thinking geometry dash but i might make a flappy bird clone. :)

:0 YES! YES! YES! Btw, if you need help w/ sprites, I would be more than glad to help w/ sprites!

Here's a little example of one of my "works." MR.GAME &WATCH! ●)~‹

@Talen it couldn't be flappy bird sprites though becuase of copyright :( BTW good job on mr game & watch :)

Yes I know about the copy rights.

sure you can make sprites ;)

Awesome! You want me to work on "Flappy bird" sprites correct? Just know though, im still in school after all im only 13 so im busy! But, i'll can get things done! :D

It cant look like flappy bird, so possibly a plane? and we could call it crashie plane :p so do a plane :)

K, Now I have a few questions so I can imagine the plane. Is the plane going to be sorta cartoonish? How long, 2 sprite boxes?

idk, I guess I just wasn't feeling it today. :/ To me this looks horrible

@Talen You also should make a sky scraper building sprite, BTW those sprites are good! :)

Oh thx XD W-wait! You didn't notice there was a skyscraper already in the screenshot? XD on the left.

The start of the plane explosion is the animation when you lose. The peices next to it, is part of the animation too.

Okay just send me the public code and hopefully i can make it within 4 months maybe sooner :)

Hold on, I want too make numbers, for score ofcourse.

Arghhhhhhh! I FORGOT TO SAVE SPRITES! Now I have to re-do all of 'em! >:0 Give me some more time >:[

Okay :)

Good luck guys!

Thanks Mo!

As soon as I get home tomorrow, I'll make a new batch of sprites. Re-creating those would've been tedious.

@Talen you dont need score sprites :)

Meh, if that's what you want

Ugh, can anything else pop up? Sorry I didn't get to make new sprites, due to state testing.....I promise next weekend.

Okay :)

Ok, finished. I got a little clumsy with the skyscraper, oh well. Lemme upload this.

Okay, awesome!

Here it is

Okay ill download it today :D

I will give you a demo when i'm done! :)

@Talen when i try to load the planes it only loads one part. Could you show me the code to load both parts? thank you!

nevermind figured it out :)

Cool, I guess I'm a beta tester! Btw, If you ever need help with sprites, i'm always here to help! I would help with coding, but I'm still early in learning, I only know how to place a sprite, load stuff, change background color, playbgm, something else. Ugh its hard.

It is hard! took me a while before i got the hang of it! :)

BTW thanks so much for helping Talen! :D

Here is demo key! :)

Ok, so I felt that the beta felt "bland" so I added BEEPS and bgm to make it feel like a "finished" project. Just go into the files and add BGM PLAY where I did

Also, just put this on top of @death and when this is done, When plane hits a skyscraper, a explosion sound goes off, aswell as a sad distinct sound to make you sound like a failure XD

Okay! I am adding trying to add updates ASAP. I'll probably put those in the first update :)

@Talen update! key in pic! :D

Nice, feels complete to me :D

I wish I were as good at basic as you. I just cant seem to pick it up. Im WAY better at programming my dad's old TI-85 graphing calculator in ¨TI-BASIC¨. oh, fyi, great job :)

You'll get there :) BTW do you and talen wanna help on my next game? :D

Sure! Im on my way to school, so I wont respond till around 3:45. What type of game will it be?

Its kinda like pokemon where you get pokemon and fight with them and level them up. :)

@Mo do you wanna make sprites?

Im back from school!!! Sure! I just cant understand the spset command tho. could you offer some help on this subject?

Oh, and good game idea! (:

We should make it so that you start of with a basic creature, and as you travel through the [2d, scrolling] world you encounter beasts like these. You defeat them. [and in doing so, you get XP which is currency] Then you can battle with them. You [the player] might even trade XP in for upgrades. [like in minecraft] Good idea?

Yeah good idea! thats actually what i had in mind! Could you create sprites?

Sure I'll help! Why even ask?

Listen, I like makeing sprites, but I have NO idea how to use sqset, spdef, or any other sprite manipulation commands. See, on the TI-85 (and javascript) there isnt such a think a sprites. IM CLUELESS!!! HELP!

I am learning, it's just that its soo hard, because the manuel is so technical, and because there is no one to show me.

@mo okay i'll start teaching you tomorrow, i'm sleepy...

XD !!! same here, g'night.

oh, and thx

your welcome :)

So, all I know how to do is make sprites.

this is how to make a sprite move :) ACLS (this clears the screen of the copyright stuff) SPSET 0,48,144 (or whatever sprite) @MOVE (the loop) SPOFS 0,X,Y,-10(enables moving) B=BUTTON(enables button pushing) IF B AND 1 THEN Y=Y-1 VSYNC 1 IF B AND 2 THEN Y=Y+1 VSYNC 1 IF B AND 4 THEN X=X-1 VSYNC 1 IF B AND 8 THEN X=X+1 VSYNC 1 GOTO @MOVE

But see, I dont know how to use spset, or any other sprite command, and it's parameters.

SPSET just puts sprites on the screen :)

Ill talk more after school, see ya after school.

I guess im being ignored?

oh sorry talen forgot about that post when i woke up :P you could make sprites kinda like pokemon if you want :D

Im back! what arguments to i have to put after spset?

I'll explain SPOFS, SPOFS is a thing that will move a sprite too a different location on the screen and in my code to make a sprite move i put 0,X,Y and when you press a button it makes the SPOFS change therefore moving the sprite :D

How do specify which sprite?

or does it just move the one last specified?

[by spset]

srry if im asking too many questions.

It moves the sprite based on its ID. A sprite ID is a number that usually appears first in the command and it indicates what sprite you want. For example: ACLS SPSET 0,1 'Makes a sprite with ID 0 SPSET 1,2 'ID 1 WHILE 1 SPOFS 0,MAINCNT MOD 400,119+(SIN(MAINCNT MOD 360)*10) SPOFS 1,MAINCNT MOD 400,119+(COS(MAINCNT MOD 360)*10) VSYNC WEND Cool effect!

Correction: change both the SPOFS to these: SPOFS 0,MAINCNT MOD 400,DEG(SIN(RAD(MAINCNT MOD 360))) SPOFS 1,MAINCNT MOD 400,DEG(COS(RAD(MAINCNT MOD 360))) It should look like the code in the screenshot. Don't give SmileBASIC tips after a round of Splatoon…

Nvm, ok Pokemon-type like sprites are something I CANT do! Im not that creative. Well atlease this gives me time to play mh4u while w8ing for your next project.

nate you said you might want to make a geo-dash clone wanna help,with mine

Yeah that sounds cool! i have just currently made a game like flappy bird which is very similar to geometry dash... what do you want me to do :)

heres what i have so far :)

i have most of the button sprites done go to my latest post
