Stencyl Day 1

Adding in the background of the game so we can start building

Be sure to have Layer 0 above the background so you can see the blocks/tiles you are placing down.

Making the stage longer so i can have more room to build 

Making the stage by placing blocks/tiles

I attempted to make the stage look like stage 1-1 of mario

I put in Red but i had no time left to implement him into the game itself.

Game Journalism Day 4 - the little things

Game Journalism Day 4

The Small Things

What did I do?

i found the crystal ball in a cave near the old person who asks us for the picture of his wife and to collect water from the hidden pool of water

a noise maker is used to distract the seeker because it creates a load of noise when you throw it

i found the bobble heads in hidden spots in towns and areas but i forgot to take a picture of where i got them

it was hard to find the totem in the dead tree forest because it blended in with the scenery

it's quite easy to find the tumble weed because it appears everywhere on the map

i used golden bullets and hit it in the chest while running it took about 3 bullets to kill it

Tips and Tricks

you can sprint and jump at the same time to save more stamina (do not hold sprint)

crouching reduces the sound drastically, be careful to not walk on pebbles because it creates a lot of noise and attracts the seeker almost instantly

you can collect everything you can collect in a chest instantly if you press the spacebar
