This is my very first game, and as it is nearing completing, I realized I needed feedback on it (game balance, fun factor, all those desing things, but also on the technical level: bugs, you know that kinda stuff...) So please go to this address and download the small thing (less that 1mb) and post or e-mail me what you found wrong about the game. Thank you! ------------------=======================---------------- N.B. Ok I got my web site disabled, I think they really suck for hammering on a small amateur game developper :o( I got the game at last on a file server, you can acces it anonymoulsy directly at https://www.idrive.com/_dragon_rider_/. Select shared in the dropdown list and then click on the link labeled voidinvaders.zip. Edited by - DragonRider on May 30, 2001 10:48:21 PM
Great game!

I''m addicted.

Mouse control and key remapping would be very nice. As it is right now I think you might want to slow down the aliens descent a little bit on the earlier levels. Mainly since I haven''t finished level 1 yet.

Cool game!! Very nicely done.

did notice a few bug you might want to look at:

1. Went exit the game, the app doesn''t quit. It will return to the desktop but the music is still playing and the app is running in the back ground. Have to use Crtl-alt-del to fully end the program.

2. Notice that it flicker if i have any windows open while running the game.

Can''t wait to see the finished product.
Hmmm those 2 last bugs (app wont quit and flicker from other apps) seem to always appear together, on some systems... I really don''t know what might be causing this and will be investigating. I''m open to any bit of help on that one! (and other ones lol)

Thank you for your comments
Just to inform you that there is a new version here. Select shared in the dropdown list and then click on the link labeled voidinvaders.zip.

It should be a bit easier to get to later levels on this version.

Are you sure you have cut off EVERY interface, surface, and divice context you have opened? Also, if you are using PostQuitMessage(int exit_code) you might want to look in the MSVC++ help files and find out EXACTLY what that function is doing to the system (or any other function you are using to close the window).
Tell him about the twinky...
