Oops!!! v0.5alpha by Blue Steel 2013-08-25T14:04:00

oops!! forgot to say that there are a total of 12 colors in the game and its ALL Random (except for the 10Seconds )

Oops!!! v0.5alpha by Blue Steel 2013-08-25T14:05:00

oops!!! also forgot to add in the source code... (Written in java 7 ... gulp

Oops!!! v0.5alpha by Blue Steel 2013-08-25T23:48:00

Source files added .. sorry didn't get time to do any more yet. but i will be continuing Dev After the contest

Oops!!! v0.5alpha by Blue Steel 2013-08-26T07:33:00

yeah i ran out of time.. you press anykey to launch the blocks
I wanted the blocks to scroll faster as your score goes up and slows down the lower your score, but this is as fast as it goes :( there are no slow downs built into the game its running as fast as it can :( I will be continuing development to get it to where i want after the voting

Oops!!! v0.5alpha by Blue Steel 2013-08-26T07:48:00

thanks for the input. i'll slow it down a bit and speed it back up. I really thought it was a ok speed to start with but like i said its as fast as i can get it to go .. i don't know why . to me it should be able to go even faster

Oops!!! v0.5alpha by Blue Steel 2013-08-26T08:16:00

Thanks .. keep the comments coming

My thinking was that lives aren't important in this game as your supposed to loose its just a matter of how many you can place before you either run out of time or make a slip and place 2 of the same color together.

Yeah i know the ending screens and opening screens will be done jut run out of time..

Eventually you'll also be able to Change the Title of the Game From Oops!! to the word/thought that you have when you get the high score. and loose.. lol.. you'll be able to change it to what ever you want.. eg: frak, schweps,sugar,NOOO!!!! or any expletive you can imagine

Oops!!! v0.5alpha by Blue Steel 2013-08-26T08:56:00

yeah i know thanks.. ;) just didn't have time

Oops!!! v0.5alpha by Blue Steel 2013-08-26T09:50:00

on the title screen (going to be done ) it'll say pres any key to launch blocks. it also says what to do in the description

its as fast as i can get it to go :( i don't know why I can't get it to go faster

Oops!!! v0.5alpha by Blue Steel 2013-08-26T09:50:00

end screen will also have a high score table too

Oops!!! v0.5alpha by Blue Steel 2013-08-26T10:46:00

its not crashing , your placing 2 blocks of the same color next to each other

you press any key to launch a block up the screen. and place different colored blocks together filling the screen. you can't place 2 blocks the same color on top of or nest to each other (this includes the colored blocks on the sides and top.

Oops!!! v0.5alpha by Blue Steel 2013-08-26T12:34:00

weird.. unless your launching a block straight away that happens to the the color of the boarder.. try it again.. what platform are you running it on.. I don't think its crashing. maybe a key stuck or something

Oops!!! v0.5alpha by Blue Steel 2013-08-26T12:36:00

yeah i'll be making a intro and game over screen in time , I just ran out of time

Oops!!! v0.5alpha by Blue Steel 2013-08-29T13:48:00

The colors I'm using are the default named Colors that Java sets up all 12 of them

I've been working on an update for it I'll upload it as a POST LD version , it has instruction/game over screen, and some bug fixes. I just wish i could get it running quicker ;( still to come Sound and High Scores and Title Renaming when you get the high score.

Oops!!! v0.5alpha by Blue Steel 2013-08-29T17:49:00

I don't know how i can get more speed out of it without skipping some columns as the block moves along the bottom. I can speed up the blocks moving up the screen though.. thinking about it, but it won't look as smooth.Bang. hit the button and it'll be up as high on the screen as it can go :(

Is the slowness because I'm just using the straight java ? no lwjgl or slick ???

Oops!!! v0.5alpha by Blue Steel 2013-08-29T17:54:00

in the Post LD version when you place a block it adds 2 seconds to the timer.. should i drop it back to 1 ???

Oops!!! v0.5alpha by Blue Steel 2013-08-29T18:00:00

the instructions / game over screen is reminiscent of the old arcade days when such combination screens were common

Oops!!! v0.5alpha by Blue Steel 2013-09-05T20:44:00

Instructions are now on the start and game over screens in the latest post build
