My website seems to be down at the moment. We'll just have to wait for it to come back, it does that a lot for some reason.

So basically (for now) we'll just have to wait and see. If someone desperately wants the game now, you could PM me with your email address (or just post it here) and I'll send it to you as an attachment.

EDIT: My site is up and running again. You should be able to download the game now.

This game is AWESOME!!

Okay, I sent this message to Color Printer, but since he hasn't answered yet, I'll see if anyone else knows how to help me.

I need some help coding a certain platform. I want it to be like the platforms on Stinkoman 20X6, as in, you can jump onto them from below but not fall through from above. Currently, I've only been able to accomplish ones that stop you from falling AND jumping through.

P.S. I'm using version 5.3

Can anyone help? Please?

Also, how do you make the score and lives and stuff in front of everything? Because I have this enemy that goes in front.

I have read your message.

Oh, and the thing about socre and lives in front? Try changing the depth. Read the help file about depth.

This game is excellant. Unfortunately, I'm not very good at video games.

God, your game makes me mad!! Which, of course, means that it is a good game. Grood job. I suck at Gamemaker, I've had it for years now...the best thing I ever made was a game, where, like, you were a tornado, and you had to knock down houses and destroy cows and bathtubs, but if you get touched by a weather forecatser, you die.

I can't beat level 5. I keep dying at the second part of the sugar rush thing.... right after it says TAKE YOUR TIME as well.

I'm making a game of my own. Here's a preview:

This might be sort of off-topic, but I tried making a Homestar Game once, using Zelda Classic, but I got bored with it quickly.

It was called Thy DungeonMan III (now with GRAPHICS!™), and starred Strong Bad. You basically went through one really large dungeon and gathered stuff to progress to the end. That was the idea, anyway. Like I said, I dropped it. I might still have the SB sprites, though.[/url]

That link doesn't work. I wish it did, though, I've heard of that program and I really wanted it!!!

Edit: Okay, it does work, it just says "The page cannot be displayed".

DOUBLE EDIT: I found it, it's on some other site. I downloaded it! ^_^

Not bad at all. I particularly liked the sprite designs and 1936 Homestar shooting Strong Bads. Obviously there are some glitches and the gameplay seems kinda hard, but for a beginning game designer it's actually really damn good.

The game I personally think would rock would be some sort of challenging Commodore 64-styled text adventure (with maybe occasional graphics) featuring all 12 main characters and a few secondary ones. I'd probably spend all day playing that one.

Joshua · **Posted:** Thu Jun 02, 2005 10:08 pm

Well, in my game you'll be able to play as several different characters including Bubs, Pom Pom and Teh C. :cheatgrin:

If all goes well, anyway...

Now THOSE are some ugly birds! :mrgreen:

Joshua · **Posted:** Sat Jun 04, 2005 6:39 pm

Okay, the first level of my game is almost at completion, but I can't figure out to change the room-2-room transition effect. Any help?

Joshua · **Posted:** Sun Jun 05, 2005 3:42 pm

Nevermind, I figured it out myself. By the way, the first level of my game is COMPLETE!!! All I need is a good place to host it and you guys can play it!

I can't help you there. I don't make games.

That Cinnamon Thing · **Posted:** Mon Jun 06, 2005 11:12 pm

lol me either
ARRRRGHBLBLBLBL BUT I WANT TO MAKE ONE SO BAD! Can you guys help me do so?

Joshua · **Posted:** Tue Jun 07, 2005 12:00 am

It's really complicated and takes lots of hard work.

Having GameMaker is the first step.

The second step, as well as the last one, is to read the "Help" section of GameMaker. It provides a step-by-step process to making your game.

Oh, and nice game, DumDeDum. Teh hard, though.

That Cinnamon Thing · **Posted:** Tue Jun 07, 2005 1:35 am

Muhahahahaha! The " Kill homsar! " game is like gonna be fun for you homsar haters! :cheatgrin:

Gun: BAM!

: DOOOOO! THIS BURNS LIKE A PETUNIA LIGHTEd oN A HAYSTACK! ( thanks joshua! )

No seriously

Its gonna be Homsars biggest moment!

Starring homsar, he has to run through levels of fun! ( just like dumdees game )

he has to avoid everybody exept Marzipan. Marzipan will give him advice and some powerups!

If he collects 3 Jenga jams he wins a jenga ship ( life )

10 levels and to win you have to complete every level by collection all of the hom-coins ( 10 points )

Thats the game! Sorta stupid but fun!

The poopsmith is ending character hit him and you win level! ( unless you dont have all the hom-coins though! )

Thats it!

PurpleKoopa · **Posted:** Tue Jun 07, 2005 1:35 am

Not bad for a first game, Dumde. I love how Homestar turns into different forms and gets to go on sugar rushes. The game is not to boring - I keep humming the music! However, I would suggest making a password system, make the screen bigger, and have like, different kinds of enemies. The ice skating level keeps killin' me, ya hear? Thanks, and keep up the good work!

Nice idea, but that would be extremely difficult to make.

And that's the one I was talking about. It was just too long when I quoted it so I cut the description out.

But all things considered, making games, expecially side scrollers, are a difficult, complicated, and time-consuming business. But if you're still interested, go to http://www.gamemaker.nl

That Cinnamon Thing · **Posted:** Tue Jun 07, 2005 3:20 am

then i REALLY know what you mean!

If anyone here has an idea to help me please do tell!

Joshua · **Posted:** Tue Jun 07, 2005 3:23 am

Well, judging by your less-than-perfect spelling and grammar and inability to get an image in your signature, I think you're not ready to start working on a game. No offense or anything, but download the gamemaker and you'll see why.
