Critique my game

[esnetni]

ok i made this game for my site but it doesn't have nice graphic nor a preloader but what i need help critiquing is the amount of live how to make the game harder and funner etc the graphics and stuff i will deal with later

[esnetni]

ahh man theres a bug i have to fix it

[TheCanadian]

Increase the frame rate ;).

[esnetni]

ok i fix the bug but when ever i raise the frame rate it goes slower then i tried lowering it and it also went slower here is what i got so far.what should the frame rate be

[Dae]

If theres any game worse than pong, its a pong game that cheats. It wont let you get the paddle all the way over to the right and makes you lose lives :(

Edit: Second attachments better, increase the speed maybe.

[danulf]

one thing: you can't play pong alone from right/left... I you're alone it's up/down, that's a rule :P

edit: I always use 25/30 fps...

[esnetni]

ok the paddle thing is a bug and losing lives well who cares

[esnetni]

ok how bout this

[danulf]

I wouldn't call the paddle thing a 'bug', you only have to change the _y position on where the paddle isn't allowed to go further...

EDIT: I should really refresh the browser before posting! :D
and it's much better now!

y? left to right is harder for somereason you know what in the first part like where the play button is i should let the gameplayer pick like you have two choices play vertically or horizontaly

the paddle was too small

[danulf]

Um, the ball going up/down is standard, that's what I meant :)

[esnetni]

i understand i just like doing stuff unique

[danulf]

yeah, then you should make 2player mode with the ball going up/down, that's hard :D

[esnetni]

thats a good idea maybe i should i will get right on it after i get some sleep its like 5:00 right now and i was on all nigh ahhh goodnight

[danulf]

sleep tight!

[wingdude]

Lol the first one said play againg after you lost. You must be tired

add more frames and speed up the frame rate to meet those frames... i think what you have is good, but man, it's like ten frames to get from the bottom to the top so it's soooooo jumpy! triple the amount of frames that you have and that might help you out some. it'll at least make things smoother

[Theros]

Exactly... U could add power ups and levels to make it even more in depth and things to break up etc... The possibilites are endless and oh color!

[esnetni]

hmmm thats a good idea i will try

[dr_vroeg]

is it me or are the physics not all there? the ball changes angle sometimes when it hits the side walls....maybe I am crazy
