Orange Runner 2 combat

Posted by Maxwelldoggums - August 20th, 2008

I've been working on OR2 and so far it is AMAZING! I've worked out the combat code (Prince of Persia style) and have made a few changes to the code. I'm including many of the options that weren't in the original too, like a mute button, a quality control and... Fullscreen?!?! (GHASP!) that is... if I can get it to work... So far it is a pretty cool game. I've decided to ditch the electricity power idea for the meantime, but I might bring it back when I get my act together. the only problem is that the combat animation takes away from the coolness factor due to my sucky animating skills, so first you're all like WOAH! and then you're all like SHAZAM! and then you're like... aww =( ... I have a few practice animations that work tho, so I'll use those.

I'm going to be posting a GAMEPLAY DEMO!!! I'm not sure when, but very soon, so keep your pants on.

thanks

Wow looks tasty.

Maxwelldoggums 2008-08-21 02:15:52

It certainly is! it won first place in a secret underground iron chef contest =)

CursedKrade 2008-08-21 13:57:24

Dude this looks so... so... boring... XC. I wish it was a lot cooler... you stink! XD Naw just pulling your leg man. This looks so KICK ASS FREAKING RIGHTEOUS! Hey, if you have it mute, will the background stop flashing? I honestly don't want to mute the song... just wondering about the visual effects. I think you shouldn't scrap the electricity idea. Like they say, bells and ornaments go on after the tree is up. And right now... the tree looks like it's about 20FT tall. The little angel at the top? That's going to be your game as #1!

Maxwelldoggums 2008-08-21 13:57:24

I think the background will keep flashing even though it's muted. Thanks!

Nice metaphor by the way =)

Orangerunnermaster 2008-08-21 15:40:41

sakura50000 2008-08-21 19:29:51

can't wait for an other awsome game like orange runner...

Maxwelldoggums 2008-08-21 19:29:51

Thanks!

wootsauceman 2008-08-21 21:42:07

this game going to be awesome i never seen a free runner game before

Man, don't take out the electricity power in the second one, it's one of the three things that made orange runner so great. That, the music and the speed (the rush you get from running super fast).
I would suggest you add in more powers like ice or fire, doing various things.

Maxwelldoggums 2008-08-22 10:47:57

ok.

Stargate22 2008-08-22 17:27:11

yes i new you were working hard good job!

Maxwelldoggums 2008-08-22 17:27:11

Thanks

jdrian10 2008-08-23 04:28:51

You are outdoing yourself....
i dont think OR 2 is a name that will match this game...
its "orange" runner, dodger, and fighter....
i only thought that you would chuck in just a few more obstacles...
Looks like i was badly mistaken

o and btw... the screenshot looks to good to be true...
did you just draw that? i think ur just pulling our legs.... :P

Maxwelldoggums 2008-08-23 04:28:51

I snapped a screenshot of the game. That's not pre-rendered footage =)

dozyrabbit 2008-08-24 06:24:56

amazing, man!
Cant wait for the demo!!

CursedKrade 2008-08-24 19:26:34

Hey man, sorry I haven't been on in a while... I see you leveled up... XD. I was on a Christian Retreat. I love Orange Runner. In fact... I'm wondering of instead of calling it Orange Runner 2, Maybe you could call it Orange Master??? What's that thing that the black stick dude is holding on to? (Not in a racist way.) Is it a bazooka!? Is he going to launch giant rockets at you? Man, that would be so sick...

Maxwelldoggums 2008-08-24 19:26:34

No, it's a handgun, you just can't see it very well because the background is in the way... but It wouldn't be too hard to add rockets... *Shifty eyes*

flamingice76 2008-08-24 23:45:05

YYYYYYEEEEEEEEAAAAAAAA!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

(woot)

Looks awesome dude!!!!!!

Maxwelldoggums 2008-08-24 23:45:05

Thanks

Even if you just add the Electric powers in the animations rather than "shooting" and such, they should definitely stay in the game.

And don't ruin the sense of speed with all this combat! Its not 'Orange Fighter' it's RUNNER!

Whats the point of getting to insanely high speeds if you have to stop and kick some dudes ass? You should think about just making the bad guys a trap of sorts, similar to what you were talking about with the prince of persia style combat but even swifter. Like you are running and you press shift next to the guy as you hit him, and then you would slide kick him, or jump on his head, and just leave him be, that way it would be a quick little burst of combat but wouldn't interrupt your speed.

Maxwelldoggums 2008-08-25 15:18:15

ok, I was going to make it so there are fewer badguys, and Reflex Mode really eliminates the need for combat altogether. I was going to try and reward the player for not killing as many people as possible a sort of "Pseudo non violent" thing.

CursedKrade 2008-08-25 16:13:14

Anyhow... don't get too caught up with everything before the demo is out. This looks So KICK ASS FREAKING RIGHTEOUS! But don't get trivial trying to get everyone happy. Stick to your own idea, then, release the demo (Make sure the demo doesn't have the plot included...) Then once the demo is out we can work out the kinks!

Maxwelldoggums 2008-08-25 16:13:14

ok, thanks!

jdrian10 2008-08-26 05:59:30

back....
i think your supporters (including me) would like a lil storyline...
i know it's = more work but.. you know... just a late idea... maybe 'bout a real great guy (OR) thats being chased by the government to use him in an experi- wait.. THAT IS THE STORYLINE!
anyway wish you the best
with this screenshot i dont think i can believe it all started with flashing lights, mountains, saws, power-ups, lively music, and a limping guy who can go 200+ miles an hour...

Orangerunnermaster 2008-08-26 17:24:16

you know what you could do I know it's a late idea and probably a stupid one but maybe you could be able to change the character but its stupid but maybe think about it

CursedKrade 2008-08-26 21:47:52

I see where your going with that OrangeRunnerMaster... Maybe your saying have other characters to fight with with their own different move sets? Or just clones of the original but in different colors? Like Castle Crashers?

Maxwelldoggums 2008-08-26 21:47:52

That would be cool, but a lot of work =)

Fineas 2008-09-01 10:17:37
