Description I wanted to make a simple side-scrolling flash game, but learning to code in Actionscript is like watching CSPAN - boring and incomprehensible. :<

So I'll content myself with making little movie clips/designing levels as if I was capable of coding them together into a game. :'C

It was going to be a little game where you run around as toon Ganon collecting Triforce pieces and causing trouble for everybody with Link as the final boss. One day I may figure out how to code it together.

THIS IS CUTE AND AWESOME. Also that animation is nicely done. Man though, I love how tiny he is, and his little frowny face. Also, tiny tiny nose!

This flows really well. Great job!

Ahahah, yeah, he kind of does... *squints*

Well, in the game he'll be much smaller, with a harder-to-see face, so his facial expression was mostly for my own amusement.

But I'll keep it in mind to change it if you can still tell during gameplay...

Very cool. This moves really well.

Good luck with turning it into a game. Coding in general can be really boring, tedious, and frustrating, but the product is usually worth it

Vestergaard In reply to Rizimar [2010-02-24 07:28:21 +0000 UTC]

Thanks. I'm finding that to be the case. Code would be easier to learn if there was one set way to do anything. But I guess that's the whole point, and I'm missing it.

Hahaha, thanks a lot. Yeah, you can do all sorts of stuff with flash, including making games.

pfff that expression. Gosh how smooth looking, how many frames is it?
I have tried flash but I am too lazy and I always just do a shitty eye animation haha. This looks really cool though, hope it evolves into a game! I would love to win over link for once.

Vestergaard In reply to Gauffin [2010-02-24 07:24:18 +0000 UTC]

ooh, it's 8 frames.

Ahahaha, I've done my share of eye animations, too. They're like the "hello, world" of the flash world.

Oh, man I hope it evolves into a game, too. *yearns*

If making a flash movie is hard.. I can imagine how hard it is to make a game! Nice little animation.

Vestergaard In reply to LuisaRafidi [2010-02-23 18:26:26 +0000 UTC]

Yeah, making a flash movie is pretty tedious, but at least you don't have to know scripting to do it. Making a game is a whole other world.

Aw, that is cute.

So, as a final boss, would Link look...scary? Or just like Link?

Vestergaard In reply to Seldavia [2010-02-23 13:37:42 +0000 UTC]

Hahaha, I hadn't really thought about it.... but probably scary, otherwise you wouldn't know it was a boss.

SilverBellsAbove [2010-02-23 11:57:56 +0000 UTC]

Aw! So amazing! I like his eyes. So nonchalant looking. Like, "I have a game. No problem. Boring."

I can't wait to see what Link looks like.

I like his wiggly sash. <3

Vestergaard In reply to SilverBellsAbove [2010-02-23 13:39:09 +0000 UTC]

Yes yes yes yes, that's exactly what I was going for. XDDDD

Thank you so much for saying that, I really wanted him to have a bored facial expression.

SilverBellsAbove In reply to Vestergaard [2010-02-23 14:58:30 +0000 UTC]

Yeah, whereas Link has that 'BRAVE, 4 SRS' expression, Lil' Ganon's just all 'meh' about this heroing business...

"Awful mercenary tormenting my sisters? Meh, I'll just whack him.

What? You say I'm too little to whack him?

I say you're wrong."

Here's an animation of him running. If he was in the game for real, what kind of weapon would you animate him with?

Vestergaard In reply to SilverBellsAbove [2010-02-23 18:36:37 +0000 UTC]

Two swords, naturally! A little dual-wielding punk. That and some magic powers maybe.

I mean, since I can't do it, I might as well dream big: I wanted him to be able to control monsters that come to attack him - to force them to fight for him. Like, a bunch of keese, he could do a spell that send all the monsters in the frame after Link or innocent townspeople or something. XD

SilverBellsAbove In reply to Vestergaard [2010-02-23 19:07:02 +0000 UTC]

I giggle in glee. It's a game where you don't get experience for fighting monsters, but for encountering monsters and bending them to your will. The more people you terrorize, the more points you get.

Link is the Scary Captain of the Guard and he comes to put a stop to your fun, wherein you go all flying terror at him, and you need to put monsters between him and you or else he'll KO you easily. :3

Fie on him! Fie on he who rains on your parade!

Oh please do figure it out, that would be the most amazing zelda fan-game next to Konjak's Legend of Princess!

I'm sure you'll figure out all the coding business eventually!

CUTE.

also I hope someday you do figure it out or somebody comes along who happens to know and then works together with you to make it happen because I WANNA PLAY THAT LIKE A MILLION.
YES THAT IS THE END F MY SENTENCE

I'm kind of hoping that someone I know just happens to be an Actionscript guru, ahah.

But it would probably be more healthy to learn how to do it on my own. It's so boringggg though. :<

I'd refer you to my awesome computertechfriend but I have a feeling he does wayyy different coding and also he's still going to school and spends his time on that and apparently prank coding and send it to people so their desktop is covered by 3000 files saying "i like dick" so mature.

Ahh but why learn when you can mooch! XD
