Oddly enough, some Darkbasic-based software, aimed at kids, and costing 20 quid, wasn't able to do that! I did use it to make a bizarre game where you fly a spaceship around some generic city streets, shooting giant chickens. Anyway, I recently downloaded the software for free, and found out it's a bit more versatile and customisable than I thought, back in the day. So I re-made the giant chicken invasion game, but a bit more, er, Felney-ey. ********************************************************** * TO RUN * * Right click, and go into "properties", then into * * "Compatibility" and check the box to run it in * * "Windows XP (Service Pack 2)" mode. You can also * * right-click on the game and select "Run as * * Administrator" to make extra-sure it will run. * ********************************************************** CONTROLS Left and Right arrows - Steer Shift - Accelerate Ctrl - Shoot Up - Down Down - Up Hearts are extra lives Orange balloons are points Purple balloons are 10 extra health Blue balloons are 50 extra health Brown chickens are minions, Rainbow ones are tougher "bosses", though they fire the same shots. KNOWN BUGS -The different types of missiles seem to be bugged, if you change their default settings once, they get stuck that way, so your missiles are bizarrely "homing". Basically, at the start of the game, speed around shooting like crazy. Once most of the chickens are down, you can try hovering at a distance and "sniping" the rest. -The level I used is intended for driving games, not flying games. If you're low to the ground, you'll keep colliding with invisible walls, so fly high! The hitbox of the comedy wings on the car is also a lot bigger than it looks. -One of the custom textures I used is set up wierdly, so there's bits of "window" above one of the shops. I tried to fix it, but it just made it worse. -The texture on the car is also set up wierdly. For some insane reason, the texture at the back is "mirrored", without any reason to be, so the number- plate is backwards. I simply couldn't be arsed to fix it. Or to make a decent texture for the car at all, really! Well, it's geometry already looks nothing like a Peugeout 305...
