Hello!

At first i need to say, Im not an experienced Java game designer/builder, still, i feel that, i may with a little work, create fairly good Java games to net.
This my first game project is a plane game for two players, game runs on an Applet.

Finished game ->

Both players will go with 2-10 planes, game year is 1917 or 1940 or 2312.
Mouse or keyboard controls,
Click chooses a closest plane, second click after delay turns planes head to a destination point, 1940 turns faster and 2312 jumps.
Plane shoots automatically for 1/5 screen when there is enemy on fire line.
Shot wont stop when there is hits to foe or friend, this way shot can + or - collect points from several planes at once.

Nothing final yet, game is still heavyily on a build.

Not So Ready Java Demo Applet Java 1.6+ -> http://temp4321.dy.fi/Pelit/

Keys ->
“1” 1917 Sprites.
“2” 1940 Sprites.
“ESC” Restart.
“Arrows” Green cursor.
“ASDW” Red cursor.

( edit. )
I have removed the LWJGL version of game demo.

I have no gamepad but anyway I must say “Bravo” !! as the Applet is so much nicely integrated and have a nice resizing on the fly feature , very very good start :slight_smile: (do you plan to add keyboard control?)

#4

hm… how to start game?
i see only couple of aims, and could move them with wsad and arrows. Am I missed something?
Also I haven’t find any instructions at website.

Hello!

Sorry for this, Im still on a showcase, i havent write yet any good instructions or havent implement any final game locig yet.
This demo is still on a process to build final graphics.

Finished game will be on my homesite and game will be a mouse/net game for two net computers, still,
i will add a keyboard controlls for one computer, but i think that the game is not a good keyboard game.

Final game ->
-Game goal is to collect higher score than opponent with in time limit.
-Mouse klik chooses closest plane, a second klik chooses destination point where to fly.
-If there is enemyes on fire line, planes will autofire to 1/5 screen.
-You get minus points for hitting your own, still score cant go to minus.

Thats about it, i hope the game is nice and playable when it is ready for publishing.
Yes, This is a small game, but like i said, i hope it will be nice and playable.
