Sledge Hammer! The Game!
2005-07-13, 6:25 PM #1
I know a few of you guys like the Superman game I made with Game Maker (http://forums.massassi.net/vb/showthread.php?s=&threadid=34034 ), so i decided to post an incomplete short little demo of the first game I ever WORKED on.

The game is titled Sledge Hammer!, after the popular 1980’s comedy. Some of you might not remember seeing re-runs of this but others do. I don’t know if there are any other true “Hammerheads” amongst us but I thought I might give it a shot. The controls are simple:

Left Arrow= Left
Right Arrow= Right
Down Arrow= Climb Down
Up Arrow= Jump/Climb Up
Space= Shoot (.44 Magnum revolver)

The obvious areas of needed improvement are:

1) Making the character’s legs move (just developed a code for that, but needs a few bugs tweaked out).
2) Re-Stitching the background (a 2-hour job for a game like this).
3) Completing it (you end up with a blue screen just press “ESC”).

Well this is just a small demo that I thought some Massassians would just like to try. Granted this game DEFINITELY NEEDS IMPROVEMENT!!! That’s where you guys come in, as I need suggestions like a few I got to modify my Superman game. If you come to bash the game and say it’s horrible, and I should never post any of them again, this is NOT the place. Well tell me what else needs to be done besides the top 3 things I listed above, and your suggestions will be copy and pasted as a guideline to help me, as well has having your name in the credits (like the Superman game). Well? What are you waiting for? Download it and try it out!

I really want to try this, but I am hesitant to download exe files. Any chance of a zip version with no installers?

Uh.. if it was a virus.. he could just put it in a zip... and then you'd download it.. extract the zip.. and get the virus.

There's not really a difference?

[and I'm playing your game now]

Can't beat the flamegun guy... I'm sure I could if I played for a bit longer, but it's sleepy time.

See if you can get the music to loop nicer, and maybe quiet the sound effects just a little. But other than that.. kinda fun!

Was that the show where the guy talked to his gun? If so, that was a great show.
obviously you've never been able to harness the power of cleavage...

Jump on his head!


I guess I won, I got to the part where the guy talked about blowing up a building and I guess the game is unfinished after that?

Nice work, it was fun. :D

Yeah that was the show, here's a link to the main site:

http://www.sledgehammeronline.com

Yeah, it's not a virus, as the other poster said, but scan to make sure, (it always makes me feel better to scan EVERYTHING i download).

Well now that everyone's reassured, I urge you guys to download and suggest, thanks for the suggestion happydud, I'll defintley play around with the sound, to try to get optimum performance. Any other suggestions?
