My first T2D project...
Well I bought T2D a while back and kicked ideas around but nothing seemed to click..
until now.. :)

I decided to tryt o do a simpler game that I can learn form while working on it..

so far I got this going..


I am still working on the layout and the textures but so far the code is working out very well.. :)

When I get more done I will update again.. with more pics.. :)

well off to do some more work.. :)


thanks for stopping by.. :)

I have to admit, I thought it was something like an overhead RTS until I saw the flippers! ;-)

I need to add more flippers also and some rotating flippers that auto rotate to help keep the momentum going.. :) so the field looks kind of bare right now. :) I got the basic score code started and will tie it into the bumbers when I get them coded.. also need to look at making some kind of trap? or something that triggers a surprise.. :) thinking maybe a black ole/womhole that triggers for 5 seconds and sucks your ball in if too close.. :)

so many ideas and so much to learn :)

thanks for the great comments and when I get the game more polished I will of course release a small demo :)

I was wondering when a pinball game was going to surface !
Kudos ! Cant stand real pinball but digital pinball is a great time waster :D

Yay! I'm glad to hear it.

well got the bumpers in adn even added a cool code created animation :) just added a setsize by collision so the bumper grows and then shrinks after being collided with :)

I am sure I could do something in animation but hey its helping me learn as I go.. :)
also I have them giving out point on collision, but they seem to give way too much as the ball stays to long at the point of impact and the ball keeps giving points.. so may have to chedule something so it stops for a sec to let the ball move on :)

hopefully when I get more bumpers in the ball will start to cruise around the board a bit.. right now its kind of lagging until it hits my test bumper and then it starts to zoom all over :)

well time for bed.. I will post more when I get soem cool pics :)
