Mutant-Zombie Marble Madness^^

Post by sudi »

Well i finally decided on a game idea.

Story:
You are HumanMutant inside a big shield marble fighting hordes of zombies. either in single player or with your friends in co-op.
Since you are a mutant you will be able to use super human powers like force fields which stop your enemies or eletric shocks etc....

The Game actually evolved quite a bit in the technical aspect but not in terms of actual playability :D
Anyway i implemented a really simple Deathmatch gamemode. The game is playable over lan and inet. But keep in mind placeholder graphics and placeholder gameplay nothing finished this is still an alpha showing the tech.

Now some "spectacular" screens

Cloudf was so kind to record a video of us playing over inet(3 people in there) that is actually a little older version with some more bugs^^

So Controls:

We're programmers. Programmers are, in their hearts, architects, and the first thing they want to do when they get to a site is to bulldoze the place flat and build something grand. We're not excited by renovation:tinkering,improving,planting flower beds.

I think it's always a good idea to have the controls changable by the user. That's why I created the "IrrConfigController" code snippet.

@Sudi: maybe you would like to integrate that? It's somewhere in the Code Snippets forum.

Integrated network. and defined the protokoll. added LanBroadcast discovery and password protected servers.
And of course i updated the flamethrower.
In the final game i plan on having 3 weapon types. short range, mid range and long range.flamethrower is obviously short range.

Nice to see this developing. Are you using Irrnetlite for networking? How did you implement the LanBroadcast discovery? I didn't really try that, but I should for further games.

Seems like mixing marbles and mutant zombies was in the end inevitable.
You didn't seem like one who'd milk popular themes for glory. Do you really like marble or zombie games?

You're not using your deferred renderer ?
Because your flamethrower particles are not soft (see wall contact)

Ok finally got my network system fully setup :D

Download

You can only move and shoot when you are server right now. Sry was hard enough^^

So Controls:
Move: WSAD
Shoot1: left mouse
Shoot2: right mouse
Change gun: e
Delete the Player you are controling: r
Spawn a new player and control him: p

The client currently only connects and mirrors the movement on the server without deadreckoning.
