terpos/asteray

A space shooting game

asteray's Issues

change variable frames to object frames

Instead of creating int variable for frames, declare object frames. Also, change int frame variables to object frame variables.

Change the Level code structures

The code structures are a mess. I think it will be an ongoing project throughout the beta release.

Background music sounds crackly

All background music needs to be put into ALLEGRO_SAMPLE_INSTANCE.

Document every piece of code

This is to let other programmers know what piece of code does what, if they want to contribute.

Implement a feature to reset the whole game or level

In order for the player to play again or replay a stage, there needs to be a reset feature.

Weapon for enemies

A laser is required for enemies

Enemy damage animation is working wierd

Foes_while_scroll and foes vector enemy object variable works for one enemy but acts weird for a whole bunch of enemies.

This can be fixed by making individual enemies have its own frame.

Spartak acting wierd by not randomizing movement

After Spartak is damaged, the randomized coord does not work. In fact Spartak goes up and down.

Spartak shooting is buggy

Here are the list of bugs that's encountered in Spartak's attack_Move:

• Frames goes over the 200 when shooting energy ball or diamonds
• Spartak goes out of screen (that's fixed)
• Spartak does not release energy ball and diamonds
• Spartak does not shoot high energy lazer

Movement when miniboss is defeated and as player advances

This can be fixed. Here is my idea for the bug fixing week which is next week.

• Put in bool advance and if the player is in the certain coordinate, advance will be true.

Weapons for Boss

Here are weapons that needed to be put into

Spartak:

• 4 or 8 way laser
• Laser Beam

MartianB:

• Egg Bomb
• Sonic Turbulence
• Laser Beam

Kamekoset:

• Comet (3, 4, and 8 ways)
• Heat pressure

Xorgana:

• Twin or single beam

Make weapon Polymorphic

Right now, Weapon is not a polymorphic class. Every function has different weapon parameter so It needs to be optimized.

Pressing (p) in pause menu not working

This may be an easy fix but it will be looked at in the end of June.

When the keypress enter on how to play the hover does not work as well as the escape button

When how to play in the main menu is pressed by the enter key the program will not close via escape key nor will show the hover animation. This is an easy fix.

The bosses and the mini boss acts wierd and its frame rate is fast

Improve enemies drawing

The enemy does not move down while the screen is scrolling

Maybe this is because the velocity of the enemy matches with the velocity of the screen scroll.

Make Sound for menu (Asteray main theme)

The menu would be boring without sound.

Make boss weapon Polymorphic

There are a lot of boss weapon class. Not sure if boss weapon class should be created.

When enemies are killed (foes and foes_while_scrolling vectors) tools are randomized and not on the same x and y position as enemies

The tools are in random places when either foes or foes_while_scrolling vector are deleted. In addition the tools does not disappear when the player collects it.

When Z is pressed and held or directional button is pressed the screen scroll goes fast

Wiki Needs to be made for the game

Put in:

• Enemies name & health
• Bosses name, Health, weapon, and how to hit them
• Different stages
• Plot
• Weapons and its use

Abilities for enemies

Implementing abilities for enemies will make the game a bit more interesting. More info later.

Animation of moving player is not smooth

When you move the player, the animation is jerky and not smooth.

Enhance the Pause Button

There is an implementation but it does not work so I need to fix it.
Pause Menu should be made.

Ammo sound triggers even though there is no ammo being displayed

I think by making the if statement for weather or not the ammo is true. If one of the ammo is true, then the push back statement triggers.

When all Enemies are being destroyed by sonic wave, the destroy animation triggers one by one

The destroy animation triggers one by one when all enemies health is 0. The enemies' collision is still there as well as the ability.

Xorgana goes down when appearing

This is because Xorgana's coordID did not adjust to left or right when get_y() = 0.

Release version of the game is buggier than the debug version

The release version does not output the destroy animation sprite. Sometimes it does it but most of the times it does not.
The reason for the release version is for everyone to obtain access to this game.

Disfigurement does not destroy foes_while_scrolling enemy vector object

When an enemy before the end of the level is shot disfigurement appeared. When player collects disfigurement, all of the enemy did not clear.

Implementing how to play in the main menu

Putting in how to play section in the main menu will help welcome new players.

Improve Splash Screen

Implement:

• Escape button for splash screen
• Random tips or facts on the splash screen
• Terp trademark on the bottom right corner of the splash screen

Spartak is on damage animation loop when shot

Spartak is on damage animation loop when energized and shot from the energy ball
