Resident Evil

In my freshman year I made a trailer for a game I was thinking up

, then I lost interest in the game.

So I found it on my comp, and have realized I can now make this game with xLib.

It's top down like Zelda except wid guns.
story:In the middle of a destroyed town three buildings remain:a school, an office building, and a geothermal power plant. Your character is sent by the gov't to determine how the town was destroyed.
more details when I find them.

Neat idea. Hope it's good!

I made two Resident Evil themed games last year. More of a shoot em up type, however. I'm hoping to remake it with xLib after my current project.

Anyhow, good luck!

well it has been a really really long time since I updated on this game
so here's da

shizzle:
you can move up and down, strafe left and right
enemy follows
HUD has health and ammo counters working
5 weapons (tell them to ya later)
da

shizzle:
(5 asterisks means it is critical to the main engine, 1 means its almost unneeded)
only one enemy ****
grenades not implemented at all *****
very very small map *****
HUD has no weapon showing or items showing ***
no turning around yet ****
screen isn't placed properly ***
storyline isn't even started **
teh

glitchez:
the enemy skips tiles when you move backwards, pulling the screen with you (I'm working on that one now)
after the enemy catches you, he stays ontop of you when you move

After you get better sprites (iirc thecheat was working on some?), you should probably implement sprite masking over the tiles, otherwise it just looks ugly to have the sprite completely overwrite an 8x8 space.

Yeah thecheat was going to make some sprites, idk where he is atm....But Instead of doing a sprite mask it is possible to just not have line tiles ie make them white/black.

yeah, sorry I haven't been able to help, I've been working, I used a WHOLE week working on a school project, I'll try to play with some maybe tonight or tommorow, ok?

EDIT 2secs later...

well, put a side view guy in, see if you can tell where he is...
