I'll be releasing the first WIP Demo on Sunday.

 

[Tyler]

Ok. I can't wait. : D

 

[Fabioisonfire]

Today, I added a new Price + Desciption feature, so these screenies are officialy incorrect, out-of-date, and old. New ones coming tommorow when the demo is released.

 

[Fabioisonfire]

Demo Version 1.0 is now open to the public. Comes in a .ZIP folder, estimated 1.47 MB size, comes with .Exe and a .Txt Read Me file. Enjoy and rate. Also added 3 new screenies that are totally up-to-date.

 

[Bulerias]

Uberly awesome as of right now, but there's one problem; how do I earn money?

 

[Fabioisonfire]

Either buy a Pearl, or, your creature will evolve and start to drop money signs that create profit. In this demo, it'll evolve twice, it should evolve after maybe, 5-6 minutes the first time.

It's pretty cool, just my Pet got stuck on the right wall. How can I get it off?

Happened to me, but on the left wall.
Now the right wall... there should be some thing that lets you move it around a little/fix the wall glitch.

 

[SL92]

Pretty sweet.

 

[Furry Sparks]

add maybe..

• Some kind of house, like a fish house
• A way to fix the wall stick glitch
• Maybe have the ZIP file come with a folder called saves, and have it save there by defult if possible...

 

[Fabioisonfire]

Yeah, I was aware of the wall-stick glitch. That'll be fixed next time around.

 

[Furry Sparks]

Apperently it's worse then sticking to the wall... after a while it will go compleetly though it, and start floating around there. When it goes off one side it will reappere on the other

 

[Fabioisonfire]

Yeah, the creature wraps in both directions, just in case something happens like that, so you won't lose it.

 

[Furry Sparks]

I got a different level two this time... its a stick. The other time it was like the first, but with 3 things insted of 4.
This one has worse power, but better intelligence and charm.
and now level 3 looks sorta like a fish
so what does the rare level 2 look like?


More stuff to add:
An are you sure thing for when you buy stuff (i just accedentally wasted 300 on color changer, I hit cancel then had to fix it)
And another way to make money.


Oh yeah, and when I try to load my game the files don't show up, so I have to type in the file name

 

[Furry Sparks]

hmm... scratch the thing about another way to make money, I have more then I need.

At this point I don't even have to do anything... food is taken care of, and I get money really fast.

Anyway, this game is awsome. I can't wait untill a newer version is ready

 

[Fabioisonfire]

Woah, that last screenie makes me feel great, ZF104. It makes me know people will actually play it. (The level 2 rare creature is a secret. ) In the next version, you can look for at LEAST 5 more buyable items, each will have an effect, like the Feeder Coral and Pearl. Also, bug fixes, 2 more levels, 5 more evolutions for level 3, and possibly a mini-game to up your stats.

EDIT: The mini-games will offer money and stat upgrades- also, I'm not sure I can change the file thing.. It's just my engine.. I'll try and fix it.

EDIT 2: What I really want to know is the FPS rates you are all getting. (The number in the upper-left corner.)

 

[Tyler]

Hrmmm. It's very time consuming which makes it fun when you are board. I'm level 2 right now and I have a few suggestions.

• Make a border on the top to reduce chances of Pet going off-screen.
• Try and fix the glitches. I know it's only a beta.
  
  
  
• Have an ability to have more than one pet on a screen. It'll add more use to the select button.

And ZF That is awesome.


^_^

 

[Fabioisonfire]

Yeah, the stick glitch is totally fixed. No worries about that in the next demo. Since I can see that is extremely annoying, I'll try and get the next demo out ASAP.

 

[Tyler]

Ok. I can't wait.




Also my FPS is 30.

 

[Fabioisonfire]

Also, I'll be making a website where people can upload and trade their creatures, but that'll come with time- if you'd like to compare and trade, use a file upload service or Photobucket.

I'm open to suggestions for items.
Oh, and the Mind Spawn forums should be up tonight.
