Anyone who is interested in trying a new game written in PureBasic...

I needed to learn some new math equations and test some ideas, and it's much more fun to test them in a game than what they are actually needed for

The Game-setting-Windows is rubbish. I see only the checkboxes (without text) and the Rocket-Button.

Also the sound cant initalised. But i hear the music.

Very nice, works great even with a simple Celeron417Mhz+Matrox200 !!

Any chance to have some bunus city every X levels or similar?

Nope. The game itself work. Also i don't have a problem with any other PB-Programm.

Why not use transparencies for explosions, for better special FX? Right now the explosions are too "dark"
Are you using sprites3D, aren't you?

I have a question, how did you manage to get all of that music in that tiny little file?

Proteus · Post by **Proteus** » Fri Oct 10, 2003 3:07 pm

It sounds like MIDI...

MIDI files are very small.

Pure Basic supports MIDI? I thought I tried that once and it didn't work. Hmmm that might have Macromedia FLASH. I just found out about OGG sounds. You can convert them from WAVs. They sound the same but are MUCH smaller - is that what you used? It sounds a little better than a MIDI to me...

Proteus · Post by **Proteus** » Fri Oct 10, 2003 5:09 pm

I'm not sure it's MIDI. I think there are API commands to play MIDI though.

Yes, it could be OGG as well. If it is, I'll have to write an upgrade for my ears. (What do you mean, 'that's not possible'?

)
