[Game] Mini Slug Project

[joe78]

Hi there,

For those who could be interested, the final version of my Mini Slug is available.
(Binaries for Windows & Linux included).
Edit : A Mac version is also available now, thanks to my friend "Pouet".

The link didn't change:

You can now configure the keyboard, and I added joystick support (only tested with an old stick on Windows).

Many thanks for the quality rips found here and there, (nick)names are included in the credits.

Have fun,

Clément.

Hello,

I'm not really a ripper but rather a coder. I'm currently working on a game by myself, just for fun.

As I am using many material coming fom The Spriters Resource, and I just made a "public preview", I thought some of you might like to see the result, and the use I made of your rips.

This preview is limited to 1 mission, and not everything is finished/tuned up. But I think it's playable and is a good glimpse of what the final product will be. (There will be 3 missions in the final product, and hopefully more stuff !).

There are no ingame credits by now, but don't worry, there'll be in the final version.

I did the archive today, and I've had no time to translate the readme file in english. Sorry about that.

You'll need the following controls :
On the main menu :
1 (or keypad 1) : switches 1 credit / 3 credits / infinite credits.

To play :
Directional arrows,
V = Shot,
C = Jump,
X = Bomb,
Down + C to exit a vehicle.

F10 to switch widowed mode/fullscreen mode.

You can get the archive here :

(Sorry the page is in french)

There is a Windows exe and a Debian 5 elf, the later also seems to run on an Ubuntu and a Debian Squeeeze 64 bits.

At the moment, the credits for the rips are going to (in no particular order): Gussprint, The Mad Soldier, Random Rebel Soldier, C2000MC/Futaokuu, Random Talking Bush, Kevin Huff, Grey Wolf Leader, Magma Dragoon, AzRaezel/Dan, The_Protagonist, Tk big_mickey_k, Grim, @$$h0l3 (what a nickname is that!?), Crazy Slug, Xezan... and some 'unsigned' rips. Hope I'm not forgetting anyone. (Obviously, I'm not using the rips of all these people in just one mission ! ).

Clément.

PS : I'm not an English speaker, please excuse my mistakes.

Edit :
Screenshot (well, I moved the truck since, but I got too lazy to make another sreenshot).


Edit 2 :
Added a mode 2x and TV2x, switch with F9. For optimum performance (especially if used on a Linux system), please switch to a 16 bits color depth screen mode, the conversion 16 > 24(or 32) bits seems very sloooow.
