My first TGB project

by Steve Bisson · in Torque Game Builder · 04/11/2006 (9:43 pm) · 12 replies

I am not a coder so for my first TGB project i decided to create a game based on the side scrolling shooter that comes with TGB.

I am hoping some more experience coder will be interested by my in game screen shot and help turn it into a complete game ? :) maybe

heres what it looks like

i managed to modify to my taste lots of things but i cant hunt down bugs or expand the game very much due to my VERY limited knowledge of TGB.

Looks very nice...
I really like the style of your artwork. :)

If only i could create something like that, but I'm a bit more on the programming-side of things ;)
If you need help coding this game, drop me an email, maybe i can help :)

Melv May , i updated the screen shot . You can now see the helper ship and the composition of the image is just cooler in general :)

Ill make the other backgrounds pretty soon.

I'm pretty sure you can. Maybe not the art but it doesn't look like you use that anyway.

Looks great. I do suggest increasing the contrast between the projectiles and the background a bit, though. The shots seem to blend in a bit too much.
