Back To Basics

So I have decided to rework some parts of my game by following a tutorial, although I have to improvise some of my own code in order to fit my game style, as it works differently than what is displayed. So here is my new movement operation. It doesn't entirely work, because I cant turn my player. Once these corrections are made however, alot of progress can be made.

Health Problems

No, I'm not dying... my characters are. I cant control the spawning of my enemies, because somewhere in the process of creating a health bar I have managed to basically destroy my enemies.

EXPLOSIONNSSSS

Today I have created an explosion animation for when the bullets hit the enemy tanks. However, there are MANY problems with the explosions and enemies colliding.

Game Maker

Today I created an animated firing sprite that is synced up to the firing of the bullet objects. I combined the enemy sprites into one, and am working on the movement of the enemy.

Game Maker: Game Crashing Simulator 2015

In an attempt of remaking my health an shooting system, I have managed to make the game crash every time I press the spacebar. I have a fix for some instances of shooting, but for most times the game doesn't like what I've done.

Game Maker: The Uprising of Enemies

I have finished the enemy sprites, and am now working on making the tanks track and move towards the player. I have had some success, but a few weird bugs to work out. At least now they move and point towards the player.

More GameMaker

I have managed to rework the controls to make the player tank move using the WASD keys, and I am starting work on an enemy. (Sprite shown is unfinished.)

Minecraft Day 5

From a marvelous building to ashes and dust. It was fun to build, but one fatal error messing around in-game later, I decided to completely demolish what remained of the destroyed project. This is the best out of the million screenshots I took. Time to rebuild... at least now there is room for improvement.

Minecraft Day 4

The mods are really helping progress. I mean, REALLY helping. They speed up production quite a lot, but at times can prove to be a distraction.

To download the modpack and launcher, go here: http://www.feed-the-beast.com/ and click download.

The modpack I'm using is called Feed The Beast Infinity. Download that and you should be good to go.

Minecraft Day 3

Today was alot of work adding to the structure, and putting some villagers in place. still alot more work to be done, the cobblestone is just a temporary block.

Minecraft Day 2

I became fed up with the idea of installing forge on my own, the process taking too long, having too many errors. So instead I downloaded a modpack containing about 175 mods... unnecessary, maybe.

Oh well, at least it works.

Minecraft

I am taking a break from gamemaker to do work on a minecraft project: a recreation of MC Escher's famous piece, "relativity." It would normally be impossible in vanilla minecraft (at least in the scale I am building in...) so I shall install the forge microblocks mod to assist with some visual tricks that still look like vanilla mincraft.
