Guest Croccy22 Posted April 28, 2003 Report Posted April 28, 2003 No idea on a time scale as of yet. But hopefully this game shouldn't have as many problems as Smartanoid did. If any of you wanna see the new graphics in action then just do the same with this one. unzip both files into a folder and run with smart explorer or shortcut. Keep watching for a while, I think the planet looks cool. No sprites on this one yet, did a quick re-write of what little code there was just to make things easier for me to read. Enjoy!!

Guest NederSoren Posted April 28, 2003 Report Posted April 28, 2003 mann.. this game justs look even nicer every time... Would be a little more fun with the lil truck on though ;) In next release we want a funktion to shoot... Btw... in the top right conor of the screen (The butom right if you turn it) i saw a strange little thing.. no idea what it was and it was only for a 1/4 second
Guest Croccy22 Posted April 28, 2003 Report Posted April 28, 2003 Yeah, I have seen that also. I don't know what it is though. Looks like the phone trying to update the screen behind the game. It is where the signal meter and battery meter would be. Any ideas anyone??
Guest midnight Posted May 5, 2003 Report Posted May 5, 2003 just to keep everyone updated, heres another mockup using actual ingame gfx (in other words, even though its a mockup, will be pretty damn close to the actual ingame gfx)...mpmock.jpg
Guest Brody Posted May 5, 2003 Report Posted May 5, 2003 I think you'll all agree with me that the screenshot in Midnight's post looks rather nice!! Keep up the good work!!
Guest mavisdavis Posted May 6, 2003 Report Posted May 6, 2003 :shock: wow :shock: wow & :shock: wow 8) keep up up the work on this one it looks ACE ;) :)
Guest Croccy22 Posted May 6, 2003 Report Posted May 6, 2003 Will hopefully get around to doing a bit more to this today. Only problem is I am waiting for the new documentation for GapiDraw 2 to come out so I can see if I can get some more speed out of this thing! Has anyone looked at the new tile sample within gapidraw? Lemmings in the making surely!! ;) Anyway back to staring at meaningless sentances for the rest of the day!. Matt
Guest fde Posted May 20, 2003 Report Posted May 20, 2003 Any news on the topic? I can't wait for it ..... please keep up the good work.. Cheers Frank
Guest Croccy22 Posted May 20, 2003 Report Posted May 20, 2003 I have been held back for a couple of weeks on this since I have been trying to finish off smartanoid first. Also I took a bit of time off to do the aquarium screensaver but this actually helped a lot becuase the sprite engine I developeed for it will help out a lot with moon patrol. It will get done! Shame I can't leave my job and program full time. Would make things so much easier!! Matt
Guest skimask Posted May 20, 2003 Report Posted May 20, 2003 All I can say after seeing the screenshot is....WoW!
Guest Croccy22 Posted October 8, 2003 Report Posted October 8, 2003 Er, don't no-one get yer hopes up but does anyone want me to finsih this game??? Also can some one explain to me exactly what happens in the game, coz i got bored of playing the online version ;) what makes it harder in the later levels? more crators and ufos? or anything else special Matt And RichieM your opinion don't count. I took your advise yesterday and got told off for not going to skittles :D he he.
Guest fde Posted October 8, 2003 Report Posted October 8, 2003 ;) :D :lol: YEEEEES, It's not just more UFO's. It's mines, rocks ... and the combinations which mike timing a crucial challange. You have to jump in the correct moment not only to jump over the next rock, but to be able to jump again over the subsequent mine or so. If you jump to late in front of the first obstacle, your punished be hitting the subsequent second obstacle, all while being bombed be UFO's. Thats the game, more or less. A must is of coarse the sound. I recommend ... have a look at the mame version. ... and keep going!!! Regards, Frank

Guest mugenakuma Posted December 20, 2003 Report Posted December 20, 2003 Hey Midnight! I loved the classic Moon Patrol game and will never forget all the quarters I wasted on this arcade game. Your new Moon Patrol looks AMAZING! I am sure everyone agrees too. I personally would be happy to pay my hard earned cash for this game, not that a free version wouldn't be appreciated :)
Guest midnight Posted December 20, 2003 Report Posted December 20, 2003 as far as i know croccy has put this on hold while he works on other games. I myself have done no more work on it since the screenshots earlier as i too am deeply involved developing other games which are due shortly. When we get time we may quickly put this together, we'll see.
Guest mugenakuma Posted December 20, 2003 Report Posted December 20, 2003 So what other game(s) are you working on midnight? What about croccy? I am curious to see what you guys have coming out!?
Guest midnight Posted December 20, 2003 Report Posted December 20, 2003 well, one game is obviously Kumite, the other we are not revealing just yet, but in my honest opinion, it kicks ass... expect an announcement about this in January as for croccy, i have seen a couple of the games he's working on, but i'll let him tell you about those :)
Guest mugenakuma Posted December 20, 2003 Report Posted December 20, 2003 Well I definitely know about kumite and I, along with most other forum members here, am eagerly awaiting it's release! What's it's release date looking like? Do you know anything about the smartphone's presence at the upcoming May E3 video game expo in Los Angeles? I go every year and last year I saw nothing on the smartphone. The nokia ngage was everywhere and I was not very impressed.
Guest midnight Posted December 20, 2003 Report Posted December 20, 2003 to be honest, i cant give an exact date for Kumite, we'll just get back onto it when this other game is finished (you wont be disappointed, in many ways i prefer it to the current Kumite, but that could all change by the time we finished it :) ) as for E3 presence, i have no idea, but if Microsoft want to get in touch with me regarding our games and E3 please do so :D
Guest mugenakuma Posted December 20, 2003 Report Posted December 20, 2003 Well I cant wait to see your new games! Hopefully microsoft will have some smartphone presence at the E3. I will be sure to post any information I find at the E3 this May.
Guest mike-oh Posted December 22, 2003 Report Posted December 22, 2003 to be honest, i cant give an exact date for Kumite, we'll just get back onto it when this other game is finished (you wont be disappointed, in many ways i prefer it to the current Kumite, but that could all change by the time we finished it :) ) as for E3 presence, i have no idea, but if Microsoft want to get in touch with me regarding our games and E3 please do so :D This other game....??? Come on! Don't tease! Is there anything u can tell us? genre? plus members only? price? anything!
