So that was one hell of a journey. Granted, with Weapons on Wheels being the first real game I’ve ever developed, I probably did alot of things the long and hard (twss) way.
Play it on MaxGames.com, who is the awesome sponsor.
Update: Also play it on NewGrounds and vote 5 to be awesome.
Update 2: Play it on Kongregate and 5-star it to be even awesomer.
So that’s it. Go try it out and tell me how disappointed you are in the comments!
In all seriousness, though, I learned alot when developing that game. Both in terms of code-stuff and in terms of what makes a game fun. I’ll be using all that knowledge as I develop Hero Dude, which will hopefully only take me a fraction of the time it took me to make Weapons on Wheels.
Protip – don’t go directly behind the blue car.
IT SUCKS ASS.
Nah, I haven’t played it yet.
Of course you made it in CS5, so I need to go download some buggy beta version of flash player. Nice work Ralph…
FINALLLLLLYYYYY
I have yet to play it, but when I do, I will totally own your old record Raplh : D
Hmm… I remembered why I don’t like racing games..
@paul actually if you use the beta of FP 10.1, the game doesn’t work, the game is fine in any other compatible FP version though, 9,10.0, and 10.1 (the official release, not the early betas)
and yeah, I think if you don’t have the tracks ENGRAVED IN YOUR FUCKING HEAD BECAUSE YOU’VE PLAYED THEM OVER AND OVER AND OVER AND OVER FOR THE PAST 7 MONTHS then yeah, it does have a bit of a learning curve
Also WordPress 3.0 is cool.
Also @Sean – Protip: use the red car
Thanks for the tip, you “Pro” ;D
And yeh, WP 3.0 is the shit.
So, guess who’s #2 in the world with a score of 208,800. Yeah, it’s me (beating by previous record of 33,000).
Holy crap nuggets.
Ok, I got first place on my third try. I’m done, all I wanted was to BEAT YO ASS RALPH! And I think my score of 315,040 pretty much accomplished that.
I can’t believe you actually took the time to play through the game that many times.
Damn.
I know. I thought this game would suck hard ass, but surprisingly enough, every time I play it, it get more entertaining. Especially now that I figured out how to exploit some of the bugs.
Way to be an asshole.
Sorry… couldn’t help myself.
Oooooooooh, secret project! Why is it further in development than Hero Dude? You slacking off there Ralph?
It’s actually partly Paul’s creation, we were talking over MSN the other night.
It’s a vastly smaller game than WoW and HD. A fast last-the-longest-and-get-the-highest-score type of game. Hopefully will be completed in 2 weeks, probably less.
Oh by the way Ralph, something weird happened the other night. I had a dream where I was in my room playing the finished version of the supposed “Secret Project”. And you were behind me. Except it wasn’t you, it was that red thing in your avatar, and you were hitting an elephant with a rolled up newspaper. Yeah…point is, strangely enough, now I have a lot more ideas for that game because I dreamed about playing it…so, yeah.
I lol’d quite hard about the elephant.
I felt bad for the elephant. He was pretty small (for an elephant) and you were cruelly beating him. How could you?!
Sounds like Space Invaders or Geometry Wars or something like that..
Not really… it’s about a **** that is ******** away from a giant ***** of *** in the **** of ******, while trying to dodge things like ******, *****, and whatnot.
Nothing like Space Invaders or Geometry Wars
Wow. You actually put the correct amount of asterisks for the censored words, I was able to fill in the blanks.
Awesome.
Yes, I have too much free time clearly.
PS – I’d be on MSN if I wasn’t so busy watching TV and then going to bed afterwards.
Tomorrow etc.
Yeah, you seem extremely busy…
40 Percent?! SHIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIT
It’s either a REALLLY small game or you’re just not procrastinating with this one.
Btw, what are you guy’s MSN addresses? I think I should add you both since we all have our own little convo’s here..
@Sean – I tweeted you both our things (wink wink) also @Paul I trashed your comment unless you prefer to have spam bots all up in your messenger.
Sweeeeet, now I have more ways to annoy you! BUHAHAHA.
I’m done.
D:
the game was very enjoyable and challenging the first time i played it!
gets addictive after a while!
great job Ralph!
@Geoffrey – Thanks!
IT SUCKED BALLS
Kidding, it was pretty nice actually. I need to learn how to use flash :[
who the fuck are the newcomers?
