Front Line Strike

[Hanz Ketchup]

When achievements come out. Which will be after the initial release of FLS. Which will be after the Community is "finished". Which will be after I get the limited version of the Community up.

Also yeah, I just made a bunch of Gameboy-esque FLS sprites when I was bored last night because the internet was out. I can show you guys if you want.

Actually here's this mock-up I made last night.

A demake of a semi-demake

[Saltonara]

FLS isn't a demake of anything :|

Also, my presentation date is this Thursday. I was hoping to be able to play it for them rather than have a simple video of it, but the chances of that are looking grim. So here's where you guys can come in! You can either
A) Offer to host a game (my presentation starts at 1:15 PM EST). If you do this, you'll have to PROMISE that you can have a game up at that time.
or B) Play a game with me (preferably more than two players, four players would be greatly appreciated tonight, tomorrow, or Wednesday.

Either way, if you're gonna play, please, PLEASE no swearing/"bad words" that technically isn't swearing but is still looked down upon by adults because hurr durr skool apropee-it.

Okay look at my last post and then read this one.

So I decided to be nice and just upload a new build (meaning all's the poll did is buy me a little time for more features). Since this is probably the biggest fucking update yet, I'll list all the changes/new features.

Added the Christmas themed map "Rockin' Around". This map features an event which occurs on the 25th day, where a present will replace each base's Christmas tree. Attacking the present will open it and give the contents to the attacker.
Added the game mode "King of the Hill". Currently, the only official map to feature this mode is Rockin' Around.
Fixed a glitch where players could combine armies across blocked paths.
Modified the dispersion code so that the resulting army is also "used".
Remade the Main Menu and Waiting Room Menu.
Added the ability to play on teams.
Modified the game end code so that not every enemy unit dies on the host's view.
Modified the outline of the cursor and the "can move/attack/build/whatever there" tiles so that they are more visible.
Decreased the view range of units.
Removed the Worker's ability to mine from multiple Ore Fields in a single day.
Added a tutorial.
Modified the unit menu code so that players can now back out of "typing menus" (disperse menu, etc) by pressing Escape.
Fixed a glitch where typing in "0" when selling/buying metal would result in the ComSat being used.
Fixed a glitch where clients wouldn't see the name of the map in the Waiting Room.
Modified the Medic so it can now attack (punch).
Raised the speed of the Transport Copter to 5 tiles per day rather than 4.
Fixed a glitch where players could have army sizes greater than 50.
Raised the speed of Workers to 5 tiles per day rather than 3.
Removed the grading system because everyone's being a whiny bitch about it. I did leave "bonuses" in, however.

Yeah. Also, don't forget about this:

Also, we need a new 2 player map. The only built-in 2 player map is Pumpkin Patch, which most people don't like because of the Spooky Ghost. So here's what I'm gonna do about it... rather than me making the map, we're gonna have a map making contest. You make a 2 player only map (KotH is allowed) and post it here, simple as that. I'll probably hold the contest until like, Tuesday or Wednesday night, where I will stop accepting entries, post snapshots of all the current entries on the first post, and run a poll. And whichever map wins the vote (ending I don't know when yet) becomes ~official~, and I might give them an award or some shit when the Community gets up.

Thanks. New build's on the front post, as usual. Also, this time, you don't need the music to play.

B.
Only if the holy laptop is in use by my brother.
And if don't have school tomorrow (which is unlikely because it snowed a sheet and 2 blankets ) (9 in.).

[Orangestar]

School closing? Then I just might be able to make it. That is, if my school closes. But it is snowing like a bitch.

:U MAP MAKING COMPETITION? Sure, I'll give it a shot.

I think I'm gonna make a 2p map now.

[Dusty]

Colton, you should've given us a bigger headsup than 3 days.

[Saltonara]

January 7 was Friday of last week.

Nonetheless, I suppose I can end it at a later date.
