THE POWER OF FEATURES:
PART TWO
I must say that I find features in a clickgame very important.. With that I mean It’s best if you have like 2 or 3 ( Or many many more.. X) ) cool features..
Features can be lots of stuff.. They don’t have to be hard to make or nr. 1 graphics.. Although I think graphics are very important, but lets not talk about my fetishism here. I am now giving some examples of some nice, not to hard to make, cool decorating and fun to play or see or do FEATURES!!!
#2 MINIGAMES:
Minigames can be very fun and nice to play or chear up your game. It can be like somesort of bonusgame, a extra level, or a anti-bugs operation in the characters house. Ask god, he might know why I just said that.. Anyway, There issn’t much to teach about minigames. All I can do is give you some tips or themes on them.
..::Tips::..
Hide your minigames... This may sound weird but you better hide the games where the can still easily find them.. X)! Bonusgames etc... don’t have to be hidden. The can be after a few levels etc... After a few coins maybe..
In the minigames you can change from the normal gamevieuw like make your character change from sidevieuw to abovevieuw... ( Or the other way around! )
The can be with a scrolling screen but they can also be with one screen with a fast number of objects shooted in your direction. Then you can make that the end is when you die, times up, all coins picked... YOU NAME IT! Everything
Is possible.... That’s the fun part of making features... It distracts you from the normal programming work... Gives some decoration aswell!!!
..::Entry::..
How to enter a minigame is very important. It’s kinda’ boring if you see a playyscreen with a opject that says: “ Jump here for Minigame! ” Don’t you think? It would be cooler if you like saw a jumper, jumped on it, fly in the air,
stand on a invisible platform and jump on several invisible platforms and then see like a box ore something... It’s harder to find but still a place you like to look while playing the game! And that’s ( I think ) very important...
I can’t tell anyone what to make in there games so I’ll just give some idea’s:
- After jumping on several hidden platforms..
- After 200 coins.. ( Better if it is a bonungame
then.. )
- Normaly a cave will kill you but now it whipes you
to the top of the level.. A place with several
leveljumps, bonus and minigames... X)
- After winning a boss within 2 minutes..
- The rest is very up to you!!!!!
GOOD LUCK!
