  game in the works, testing shit, fuck you.

  i hope thats an offer

  here's something that you can do to give it a small improvement.

  It seems you're using the same sprite at the base of the tornado to be produced a whole bunch of
  times like the ground is exploding. Try making another sprite and the base so that it doesn't
  look the same all the time.

  Another thing you can do is make a thinner tornado in the center of the main tornado, like an
  inner layer.

  Have the main tornado follow the thin tornado very closely to give it the full effect.
  Hopefully my improvement ideas help. If that's not the style you want, fine. Fuck you too.

  Much love,
  Anon

  Already doing the first one, not as noticeable because the perlin noise is being weird... Two
  different images, apply DisplacementMapFilter from perlin noise, noise also determines direction,

  but the second idea is good... Really good, assuming by follow you meant that it would stay
  inside the tornado

  You have angered the tornado.

  Hehehe, glad I could help.

  I notice a slight bug when going up or down on the screen, the dirt explosion thing stays pretty
  fixed, rather then moving side to side, it'll extend

  Along with what I just said: when you move down, you'd expect the tornado on top of all those
  sprites. But yeah, just a heads up.

  Not bad though. This test is amusing. :)

  Hey, also put it low quality...

  yeah, i'm lazy..., i'm just testing parsing shit anyway, there's alot of stuff going on in the
  background that I want to get working first

  Gonna be katamari-damacy esque, for anyone who cares. Tornado starts small, collects shit, grows
  bigger, travels the world, eats china...

  That sounds awesome. Good luck on that project. Hopefully I can see the upgraded versions and
  whatnot.

  Don't let laziness become an element to your development style, haha.

  Looks awesome so far! You rock!

  agreed, do please post further test phases.

  So you start off in a trailer park, and work your way up to towns, cities, counties, then the
  country?
  Maybe for each level up thing, you just go to a different 'map', with news reports of the killer
  tornado on a rampage.
  Maybe have storm chasers as enemies that have a potential of knocking down the twister?
  OH NOes! Superman with his counter twister twister!

  Possibly, I'd prefer it to be more fluid, but that's the gist of it. Start in a trailer park or
  some shit, then eventually cross the ocean and fuck up the rest of the world. You never actually
  get larger, everything else gets smaller. Or maybe you get larger, then "Level up", you return to
  normal size, and everything else gets smaller.

  Liking the idea of storm chasers, there will definitely be enemies.

  And news reports for sure.

  I'll prbly be posting most updates, anon gives better advice than real people because they're
  anonymous and don't have a problem telling me how I fucked up.

  >>968611

  How is a tornado fluid?

>> [_] Anonymous 05/01/09(Fri)03:22 No.

  Nah, the levels. I'd prefer it to just be emergent, rather than distinct levels. As you get
  larger, more stuff is going on, and you can go more places. Kinda open world, but not because
  fuck that, open world is way more work than this game deserves. I'd also like to add bonuses and
  bosses somehow. Yet I still want to keep it simple.

  The news reports would come in when you do something important, like reach a certain size or take
  out the white house. I'm kinda curious to see what'll happen if /f/ actually collaborates on
  something....
