Snowball Fight! >:O
Version: 1.0
Author: cozziekuns
Date: May 1st, 2010

Version History


  • 1.0 [Created, I guess?]


Description


After playing FFTA, I saw that the first battle was a snowball fight. I'm all for snowball fights, so when I got the idea that I wanted to script a snowball fight, I was working my head off. But I decided to use events, a nice break from scripting.

You could use it as a mini-game, I guess.

Features

  • A snowball throwing minigame.
  • Parallel Processed, so it doesn't run throughout your game (Only in a specific map).
  • A custom snowball sprite! (Come on, who doesn't like snowballs).
  • Difficulty is Customizable.

Planned Additional Features

  • Co-op mode. Uh huh.
  • A WAY better AI (right now he just runs around randomly).
  • Suggest some!

Instructions

The snowball sprite can be found in Graphics/Characters/$!Snowball (I made it in about 1 minute, so it's not so good  :-\)

The keyboard letter "A" is the default button to throw a snowball.

Copy/Paste basically everything in the system. Change the number in the brackets of $game_map.events[3].x and $game_map.events[3].y to the Event ID of the event you want throwing the snowballs. Change the number in the brackets of $game_map.events[2].x and $game_map.events[2].y to the event ID of the snowball you want the player to be throwing, and change the number in the brackets of $game_map.events[5].x and $game_map.events[5].y to the event ID of the snowball you want the enemy to be throwing. You can change the difficulty of the game by changing the Movement Speed and Frequency of the enemy. Personally, I find that Normal Speed + Highest Frequency is already hard enough. I like to put the event on random movement, so you'll never know where the enemy's gonna go, and where it's gonna throw its snowball.

The time it takes for the event to re-load its snowball can be adjusted by changing the Wait: 45 secs to your preference.

Quick Tip: Put the snowballs out of the player's sight. Or else it just looks weird... Teleporting snowballs...

I'll have to take a look at this later, but it sounds pretty neat. Nice work!

Is this like a tactical mini-game like how you compared it to FFTA?

Unfortunately, no. It's just a regular snowball fight.
