[Homebrew Idol 2]PSPMarble : Orchestra SensatioN

[Masteroid]

I think this multi-player option is a good idea. This also makes me think of having, like, a time-trial mode for the game, also may i suggest a few more things:

1. Switch the Quick Tutorial and Select Level around, because you really only need to use the tutorial option once, I think it would be quicker.

2.Have NO high scores pre-set, let the user set their own, have them blank so we can notice what OUR OWN high score is, not the preset ones of 110 or whatever.

I look forward to the improvements of this game, its doing very well. Also, nice textures in the newer version, I didn't notice it changed!

i really hope your not getting lower then 110 lol.

online would be pretty cool.
especially if there was some kinda battle mode where you try to knock the other marbles off the stage.

NO WAY! LOL! Just have them all blank, or have a numbers and letters system, like the arcade machines have with the 3 letters.

@PSPnoobmod:
#1:
Hmmm ... hmmm ... I don't really think that this can be considered as an improvement or
something :-P.

#2:
Lol , why ? Your scores remain there ... unless they're lower than the pre-set ones(110) .

I had many ideas , just like everyone does when working on a prototype test code , but in the end i thought
that the single player was more important , well at least for a marble "clone".

Some of the ideas that i had , include a co-op mode , where 2 players will have to work
together in order to solve some puzzles , and a "death match" for crystals.

Anyway , expect an updated version soon.
Edit : i will also finish up the marble editor's tutorials after the next update.

Oh ok. Thanks, I am a little dissipointe by what you have said about the online mode, but the single player is more important ATM, maybe once you have this all sorted out, then online?

Well , like i said , since im working on the network driver for lte lm(btw : a native hw driver support is also planned) , i might end up doing it to actually test the new module.

Here's the complete changelog:

Spoiler:

2.5 -> 2.5b
*COMPLETED REQUEST regarding the camera system ( wrapping is allowed now)
Requested by : "the underminer"

*UPDATED physics module , now marble goes a bit faster , but the controls remain
still accurate , and they won't make your life harder with "puzzles".

*UPDATED stacked particle system for smoother animation

*UPDATED session cache manager , and now the load times while you switch menu-related sessions
are improved.

*UPDATED an input event in the tutorial mode

*Plus more not-so-worth to mention


2.0 -> 2.5
*NEW PHYSICS MODIFIER - No gravity
*(COMPLETED REQUEST)UPDATED camera( "full" 360o rotations are allowed now ( 90o / animated step ) )
{
Received request by : "Punk777E" , and "pspjoke"
}
*UPDATED tutorial mode with the new camera controls
*UPDATED the geometry of some levels that had low-res textures
*UPDATED the input system(no more timed execution is used in order to make 100% syncing with the menu SFX & controls.
Gameplay isn't effected)
*UPDATED the audio module
*UPDATED the controls
*UPDATED the physics module
*PORTALS are now 100% complete and fully working(can interact with any dynamic object without limits)
*ADDED SFX TRIGGERS for portals
*MORE SUPPORT FOR "PUZZLES" : Once you fail , the dynamic objects that are out of bounds will come back into play
*Added + 5 levels
*Some misc optimizations
*And many more

1.8 -> 2.0
-ADDED SAVE POINTS! (once you pick a crystal , that is , it becomes your save point and you can continue from there if you ...FAIL!)
-Updated a bit the camera system
-Normalized the movement of the marble
-Reworked on level "A real challenge". Now even a beginner can actually play on this level...but
the tricky "puzzle" is still there ;-).
-Added one new level : "Made of glass"(this one is easy enough , but with really unique style!)
-Updated the code that detects if the player is inside the map bounds.
Now , its instant , since you don't have to completly fall off the whole world ,
but instead , the closest node's normalized position is picked , so its "instant".

1.8 ~ initial release

There's no need to worry , the controls remain still accurate ,it's just that the marble can go a bit faster.



edit : DONE.
