Gardy's skin is absolute black and eyes are totally green

here ya'go:

also he said he doesnt have the backward cap anymore

if you must use me....

Alien King - Psychotic alien worm (that means he's green, no antenni). Evil, scheming, telekinetic and psychic

crown, scepter, telekinetic and psychic powers

special ability: Mind Melt - "Melts" the mind of any persons within a small area, or can be targeted onto a single person. Victim(s) suffer from extreme headache's, loss of concentration, suffer moderate amounts of damage and can occasionally cause the victim to be knocked out.

scepter often also used as a weapon

Maybe something like this (Had problems with the bandana)

antenni
antennae
;)

what about this?:

dunno. i think mine looks better

what about this?:

You cannot see Gardy's mouth. So that pic is wrong

are you blind!? the mouth is as clear as day!

are you blind!? the mouth is as clear as day!
Erm... the mouth must NOT be clear... That's what he meant...

Well, I like agent luke's picture, but I should ask Gardy what he thinks about it.

What's actually gonna be in this game?

What's actually gonna be in this game?
What do you actually mean?

boy i wonder which one gardy will choose...

yours is good, though here it is in better quality

What's actually gonna be in this game?What do you actually mean?

He means what kind of gameplay, what characters, what weapons, what inventory... is going to be.:)

Well, the demo may only have 2d mode, but i'll try to make 3D, and it may have some kind of Liero style. It has normal weapons, but it may replace some weapons with others. Then... I don't tell to you everything

kinda like worms fusion then ?

kinda like worms fusion then ?
Yeah, some kind

Except not realtime?

Except not realtime?
Well, I'll put there some realtime too.
Anyway, can you sent me the gamemaker file of that game, so I'll have a look how did you do that demo?

No, sorry.
However, I may be able to help you if you come across a problem.

Why not? Send it in Msn or something(email)

For a start, your MSN appears to be offline

*waits for entire project to go t*ts-up*

*waits for entire project to go t*ts-up*

You are not alone :p

lol it looked short lived from the start considering this guy has no clue what he's doing worms fusion however was a great sucess :P

Wasn't a great success for me. It wouldn't work...

what seemed to be the problem ?

When I opened the .exe I got a window with a red loading bar that froze.

Does not it belong to Plasma's thread? :p Just wondering...

What do you mean?
I started it about two weeks ago, so I haven't got all the skills.
Why me???

Started the game or GameMaker?

"GASP!":eek: killers...you have stolen that avatar...


"beats [killers] over the head with his sniper"

Oh my Glod! That's Sn!perWorm's avatar! Delete it immediately and get your own! *chases (Killers) down the road* Thief! Thief!

According to a PM (Killers) sent me, he has permission from Sn!per to use that avatar.

Have you asked Sn!per?

Well, if I know how to get a screenshot and where does this save it, then I would show it to you.

Mspaint? What the heck is that?

Mspaint? What the heck is that?
"Microsoft Paint" - a drawing application included on all Windows computers that basically allows you to open a picture and save it. And, if you're lucky, create a new picture and edit it.

It should be found in somewhere like Start Menu --> Programs --> Accesories

Oh, sorry, we just call it paint.

Use this anim as a guide. Colour it in Paint.

I also have three tufts of hair, refer to av. Also, I'm all black (except for eyes) don't have grey outlines.

Can I be in? I'm the Fire Guardian and this:http://img406.imageshack.us/img406/6910/mysigworm4xu.gif is my sigworm.

Can I be in this game? I made some sprites.
Here are weapon descriptions:
M16 - Works like UZI, has a 30-round clip
Pistol - Secondary weapon, last line o'defense
Flashbang - Grenade that freezes enemies, can also freeze you if you are too close.

What colour should the eyes be for?
Is the bandana black, too?

Well, I don't think this is good, but I'll ask you.

1: The picture editor that GameMaker has is very good for changing the colour of sprites. Test it around a little.
2: Please don't tell me you're gonna use one of the T17 wormsongs.

Well, I don't think this is good, but I'll ask you.

you're right, it isn't good

more like the worm here

I'll make those as you aliens (because you're the Alien King.)
Is that ok?

What colour should the eyes be for?
Is the bandana black, too?

Well, I don't think this is good, but I'll ask you.

[I]Edit:[/] What Wormsong fits in this game?
Eyes: green
Body, hair and bandana: Black.

Well, I don't think this is good.
But look it.

Edit: Oops, I forgot the hair.

Well, I don't think this is good.
But look it.

why is the worm black?

Eyes: green

Gardy answered you... :rolleyes: :p

Am I surely in?
I pmnd to you

yeah you're in.
There's just so many things I got to do, so I can't do everything.

Gardy answered you... :rolleyes: :p

i thought he was just saying that for the bandana

this is something that looks better

Nah, his eyes lose their luminous effect.

Ok, here's my list:

The Queen
The Prince
Traitor
The Trainer Knight
King of Aliens->Alien King
Some Aliens

I'll add some more.
You can suggest some more or ask if you want to be someone

The King
The Queen
The Prince
Traitor
The Trainer Knight
King of Aliens->Alien King
Some Aliensthe guy from the game&watch system

The 'That Programmer Guy'. Aka: Me
(Can also be known as 'Bold Ego')

Plasma, you haven't even told to me that you're in the game.

I did.
2 Posts ago.

Yeah, but you haven't told me anything about your charater.

Oh right.
Black cape. Metal, shape-changing hand (and colour changing).
Able to levitate things, including self

Well, actually everyone should send their weapons and else, look at the first post.

I would be able to poke a lava poke
(like prod but loses lot of more energy)

Ok, i do not want my sigworm in there, but rather him when he's sober... (And combat worthy :P)

SobreWorm-

Special weapons: Combat knife- like a super short range version of the axe, except it only tales 25 percent of health away, and has 2 shots.

Beer bottle (Yes, even when he's sober he still uses these...)- A bit like a watered down version of the baseball bat, except it breaks on impact, causing 40 damage instead of the usual 30 to the enemy.

FAMAS Rifle- Being the fired-from-the-military soldier that he is (well... was...) he still has plenty of weapons from the service, this Rifle has 10 shots and it's bullets spread in a distance between the minigun's and the uzi's, it also does 60% more damage than the uzi (that's 40% away from a minigun!).

And last but not least... THE BEER CAN!- After drinking this, he slows down and becomes and almost immobile slug, but his attack dramattically increases for a short period of time.

Well, actually I asked what weapon it replaces.

You have to tell us the weapons in the game first.

Ok, then don't do anything.

Well, actually everyone should send their weapons and elseif so, then I change my weapons list (all ripped off Plasma's thread)

bazooka: normal except monochrome (black and white) bullet
grenade: ball*
cluster bomb: ball* that explodes into clusters
homing missile: normal except with monochrome bullet
smart bomb: normal except with monochrome bullet
holy hand grenade: large ball*, does not make any "hallelujah" noise
dynamite: normal except monochrome
shotgun: normal except monochrome gun
uzi: normal except monochrome gun
landbomb: normal excpet monochrome bullet
banana bomb: big ball* that explodes into clusters
sheep: normal except monochrome
prod: normal

surrender: normal except with monochrome flag
finishing move/dying pose: hits head with frying pan, worm explodes into tombstone, and 3 sausages fly out as clusters
tombstone: game and watch statue ringing a bell

*ball 10 pixels wide, big ball 15 pixels wide, and the large ball 20 pixels wide. All balls are black.

Now please, don't post here anything until I say so.

P.S. I'm not gonna use any of you in the demo

In the game can there be a part where before getting in a fight with Koppis, I say "There's only enough room for one person with fire powers, and it ain't gonna be you!"

Oh and please make my Holy Hand Grenade the French onion, which you hear the sound of people crying and the French anthem, then BOOM!

Bazooka: Fireball Launcher
Grenade: Fireball
Shotgun: Shock Cannon (shoots electric balls)
Kamikaze: I reach my hands out and clap them together, then roll in a fiery ball.
Suicide Bomber: I get a huge water bucket and pour it all over me.
Cluster Grenade: Cluster Chicken
Sheep: Rocket Hover Sled (When jumps, rockets turn on)
Super Sheep: Flying Rocket Hover Sled (jets make it fly)
Mole: To make it easy for you: Flaming Bouncy Ball (non animated sprite :))
Surrender: I shoot fire up above me in the shape of "I surrender!" and hold them there.
Earthquake: For cheat have it be a giant farting noise.
Finally: Sally Army and Old Woman: Fireballs in the shape of a person, Sally Army one explodes into loads of blue fireballs.

So, what other games have you made?

IIRC, he started GameMaker with this game.

Plz, don't post here anything now.

Keeping just alive.

Why make a thread then?

I see no reason not to post, it'll attract the attention of more forumers.
Hello again Test!

Heres a player i like to enter!
C.D.Maker

I'd love to see where this goes...or rather, doesn't go lol.

It depends how motivated Killers is.
...And how soon he can organise himself.

Personally, I've never heard of (Killer). But I guess that's because I've been gone so long.

I'd love to see where this goes...or rather, doesn't go lol.



Personally i don't think this forum game will turn out.

sorry to ressurect this, but...

is (killers) still making this game?

i don't think so...most game-making threads are usually resurrected by their author every few weeks, like what i do...

Oh yes I am, only got few problems that I'm trying to fix.

Edit: Thanks anyway for keeping this alive.

i don't think so...most game-making threads are usually resurrected by their author every few weeks, like what i do...
Really?
Its always been other people for me.

Really?
Its always been other people for me.


yea well you actually have a demo...the best i can hope is to have a demo by thanksgiving...

You can post your suggestions here, what do you want in the real game.

The problem is now fixed, thanks to Plasma.

Huzzah for me and my great ability to... er... be great.

Now, I'm asking YOU! (Yes, I mean you, not your parents)
What should be the name of the game?
I were thinking of Worms Revolution

uh, Killers' Ultimate Worms Game?

also click here (http://forum.team17.co.uk/showpost.php?p=440556&postcount=300) for a bunch of random worms game names

I did see that yesterday.
But many of them was a joke.

Edit: Anyway, I'm adding some minigames, but those aren't coming in the (1st?) demo.

Worms Retribution
Worms Retaliation
Worms: Forum Fangame
Worms: Realtime (if it is realtime)

Worms: Realtime (if it is realtime)

Well, it has realtime, and no realtime.
I also (maybe) make there 3D(If I can).

Well, if you haven't got any ideas, I decide to set the name to worms revolution

Worms: Stationary.

Worms at war.

Worms: rage

I don't know...

well, when will the first demo be released? oh and why don't you use RPG maker XP? i hear it's much better and u can make better games and the graphics have been updated.

Umm, you can only make RPG games with that.
Anyway, did you post it in the wrong thread.

no he didin't. plasma alredy has a demo.

But the RPG maker, it's for making rpg games.

I need now a sprite artist.
I need to make those main menu buttons.

what kind of menu buttons? alien kind? bloody kind? wormy kind? what?:confused:

I need now a sprite artist.
This is the point at which we can safetly say that this project isnt gonna go far.
Killers: Pixel sprites are the hardest part of making a game like this.

what kind of menu buttons? alien kind? bloody kind? wormy kind? what?:confused:
Umm... maybe it's something, more wormy kind.

Edit: Well, then if it isn't going so far, I have to quit it.

This is the point at which we can safetly say that this project isnt gonna go far.
Killers: Pixel sprites are the hardest part of making a game like this.

They are? How'd you work that out? If someone is good at sprites then surely that would be the easiest part?
A game doesn't need great graphics to be a great game either.

1: That may be true, but its not actually relevant. Look at the credits of some good older games, and note how many people are graphic artists in comparison to programmers.
2: No, but it would be hard to make a good game when its not that origional.

And Killers might be able to make the game without focusing on good graphics, but it would be very hard to have multiple characters in it. (unless he decides to learn to make his own art)

Killers: Pixel sprites are the hardest part of making a game like this.

so... all the programming and stuff is easy then?

so... all the programming and stuff is easy then?
No, its just easier than the graphics stuff.
Presuming that you know how to do both.

Nah, I suck at making sprites, so can someone make a logo?(Sumthing about competition.)

No, its just easier than the graphics stuff.
Presuming that you know how to do both.

I'm not sure I could disagree anymore more at this point...

Umm... What?

Umm... What?
Nobody was supposed to reply to that...

I see, I think.

EDIT: I have readed that the weapons can't be more powerful than the ones that it replaces... so i have deleted the holy bazooka and the armageddon minigun... :(

Nah, hanging isn't original. Let's just start a suicide thread. ;)
