OmegaRaceX LAUNCH!

I finally uploaded the exe for all to enjoy, you can download the game here:

Less Lispy

I have massively reduced the number of parenthesis in the code. I started using the C# built-in getters/setters and it's really made the code easier to read despite that I was avoiding them for just that reason. Collisions are still not perfect, and I'm tempted to add new sprites for a third and fourth player and maybe it set it up so it'd be possible, but I'm running out of official time to work on it. It's pretty good timing, but I wish I had a little more to work on that the giant leap it'd require to add more players. Also the controls would be difficult to figure out. Still, the code looks nicer now.

Now With Color

I'm rapidly slashing through the bugs. Still have the giant bug of collisions left, but I'll get to it next week and that should finish off my current list. I redid the controls to be more Mac-friendly, but I do not like them as much as the previous controls. I did add colors to the controls page and it wasn't as bad as I thought it might have been. I was going for a minimalist design, but oh well. Looks nice.

More And Yet More

So, it looks like there is still a lot left to do. I've made a few updates already, particles look less threatening and you can lay fewer mines. The controls are a lot different, too, to support Mac users, but I fear they are not a very good choice of keys. I still need to update the instructions to reflect the new keys. Still a bunch of fixes left, especially collisions. Which I suppose is good because I still have 5 weeks of this project left.

// This is a comment

I just spent the last few hours commenting up nearly every line of my code. I also took out some useless methods and fixed a few things. Apparently I didn't even need the GameCamera class at all. Finally there are comments in the code, though it probably would have been better if I had done it earlier.

Complete

The game is complete!

I edited the sounds and added a mute button. The sounds are still pretty terrible, but they work. I'm hoping the volume is good, too. It's all undocumented and uncommented, but it's done. And I'm pretty happy with it.

Stay on Target!

Well, everything's done except audio. It's in, but it needs some cleanup and a mute button. I'll have to spruce up the images to fit the button unfortunately. There goes my minimalist design again. I'll see what happens. Next week is also my last week to work on it. It looks great though, except one bug where if you're terribly unlucky, you get stuck in a wall. Also, there are no comments...
