Paid Work / Re: Looking for partners in Mobile Game development.

Thanks gfalcaor for the post! Yes what I really need is a mentor someone I can show the game to and help me fix a few things or say do this and let me continue to tweak it. I might need additional help with some other parts as well.

I have always been a gamer, and my some wants to learn so were doing this together. However he seems to worry about things not important at this point. We need a logo, we need a webpage etc.. I told him to relax I need to get the game complete before that stuff lol..

Any time help would be appreciated.

Thanks

Paid Work / Looking for partners in Mobile Game development.

« on: February 16, 2014, 02:11:20 pm »

First I would like to say hello to all the other developers out there! I have been an avid gamer from the TSR-80 and Apple IIC days grew up on the Commodore 64 and still enjoy playing games to this day at a ripe old age of 42!

Recently I have begun to explore the idea of working on game development. I have been using Stencyl and Game Maker Studio and have begun work on my first project using Stencyl. I have the core concept/title screen, game and scoring system in place it's completely playable in it's current form. However I am not advanced enough to see this through entirely myself. I am looking for someone experienced with Stencyl and mobile game development to help steer the ship and clean up any loose ends I have with my coding.

I am sure a million people come here asking for free help, and everyone has visions of grandeur about their games, but I have always wanted to make a game, and now with the help of my 11 year old son we are on the verge of actually accomplishing it.  The Goal is to get this on iOS first and than Android as a free app with ad's.

I would be willing to partner with someone who is serious and would be willing to work out a payment  system that would be acceptable to both of based on revenue. If anyone is interested and working together please let me know and hopefully we can work something out! For this first project I just need some finishing touches and porting help!

Thanks for taking the time to read this, and good luck to all you developers out there trying to make your dreams come true!

Ask a Question / How do you put actors behind others?

« on: February 15, 2014, 02:51:35 pm »

I have two actors on screen lets say a man and a bird. The man is the main character and bigger. The birds spawn later and just fly across the screen as eyecandy. However when the birds pass paths with the man the birds can be seen in front of the man. I want it to be behind and kind of vanish behind the man. Anyone have any ideas how to do this?

I checked in actor settings and properties but found nothing noting foreground or background.

how are you creating this "List" I have 6 objects I want randomly placed at a position. I cant figure out how to make a list that pulls random OBJ1-OBJ2-OBJ3 etc ever 3 seconds and scrolls them from left to right

Ask a Question / How to spawn a random actor (object) every x seconds?

« on: February 14, 2014, 02:35:10 pm »

IM new to Stencyl and to programming all together. Spent the last few days reading and writing some code for a basic flappy bird type game to get some experience and am stuck at two things. for this post Ill stick with the random actors.

1. So I created 6 objects (pipes lets call them) I spawn in pipe 1 at y/x locations and set them to move at a negative speed of -10. They slide from right to left perfectly. I also set this up to spawn every 3 seconds. Problem is this is just one set of pipes. constantly moving the same. I have 5 others I want to have randomly spawn at same locations with same movement speed each with their own collision setup ( I can do that) so the pipes vary.

Can anyone show or tell me the commands to create this effect?
