VB: Sub Hunter [Source]

**jonask** · Apr 25th, 2004, 03:23 AM

Heyhey!
I'm completley new to this forum, but I've been at VB four a couple of four years now and I thought I'd submit my first post.

This is one of the first games I ever finished, about a year or two ago, and it's a completly craptastic sub hunter game =D.

You can of course download it here, but I'm not saying that you're going to like it. I just wanted to share and to write something, maybe get some feedback on my code :)

NB, I know there are faults in this code, but still... Also, if the server is kinda slow it's because it standing between the washer and the dryer in my basement :p

I love it!

Good work!

That was a nice game. The boat turned a bit fast, but hey..it was more then playable...

...a bit easy maybe, I got bored after a while. And the number of bombs in the top left corner didn't always match how many bombs I actually had after I took the first boss.

But I am impressed. BTW where are you from Jonas?

Hehe...I also thought about asking that. That name sounds Swedish

Thanks for the replies =)
The boat does turn kinda silly, doesn't it? Also it goes from a hundred to zip in one pixel :p

And since you wondred, cyborg was close, but I'm from the southern coast of Norway.

**cyborg** · Apr 25th, 2004, 09:37 AM

Hehe! That was close

You should make the game a bit more dynamic, like make the
water ripple a bit and make some debris float by in the water.
That would give the impression of the ship constantly moving.
I would maybe make it a bit more fun if more stuff were happening around, even though it doesn't affect the game play.

Have a look at my Fish game:

Hehe, nice to see that I'm not the only scandinavian around here

Jeg får prøve å henge med her i forumet da =)

I had a look at that fish game, cyborg. That was some really cool graphics, I see what you meen by adding detail. Those bubbles and their physics really give a nice touch. And I must admit that I am a sucker for real physics in computergames =)

Best wishes guys

Yeah, I would have added even more detail if I just had a better imagination (That's always the problem).
I'm not that good with physics either, but those bubbles was not too hard...

**NoteMe** · Apr 25th, 2004, 04:35 PM

My imagination is not my problem...my drawing skills are...

Du er den tredje nordmannen her som jeg vet om Jonas. Hvordan fant du forumet?

Your drawings rulez!

**jonask** · Apr 26th, 2004, 08:25 AM

I did some physics simulation programs a while ago, mostly to mimic what i learnd at school. I'll post them as soon as I get home =)

Jeg tror jeg fant dette forumet da jeg søkte i google etter visual basic og png støtte ellernoe sånt=)

**NoteMe** · Apr 26th, 2004, 10:12 AM

Nice....hope to have you as a regular member here in the future. The other forum parts are so crowded, and the game/graphics section need some new members now.

Looking forward to see your physics simulation projects.

ØØ

I think the games and gfx forum should be moved right under the general forums link, because that would maybe draw more attension to it. I've seen many, many threads in the general forum that belongs in the gfx area.

**NoteMe** · Apr 27th, 2004, 01:51 AM

Yeah me too. And I am always answering them when I see them, and are telling them to post here next time....Pete, and Mendhak and others started to get irritated on me a few times when I did that...
