Shipwreck - Battleship game (2016-12-30 update)

Hi,

This is my first game, I still have a lot to do (add sounds, animations, menu...) but it's playable (2 human players, one after the other on 1 Gamebuino).

I'll have to make it playable on 2 Gamebuinos, and human vs CPU too.

Tell me what you think!

UPDATE 2016-12-14: Sounds and more animations
UPDATE 2016-12-30: Now with CPU opponent! Still needs some work but it's functional.

Looks like a fun project, keep it up!

getting better :)

The clouds' parallax looks awesome !

Gamebuino have small resolution but a powerful potential... The 3d effect and the gray effect look awesome! I'm to busy working on ConsoleBlock and finishing BigBBox but if I had more time or i will find more, i'll create a 3d game (maybe 3d tenis) or a 2.5d game (2d gameplay but 3d effect)

I can wait to play this game! (I know, it's aviable but i cannot play it yet.) Good job. You're one of the best graphical designer for gamebuino!
The Parallax effect is the way to create awsome looking game and you did it.

Will-you update it?

Are you using the grey color for the water? It seems to work great on your video and it takes quite a big chunk of the screen.

Wow that's maybe too much praise! Yes I'll update it, I'm working on the animations displaying the shots (missed, hit and sunk) but I have to rework the structure of the boat screen to do that because my initial idea was simpler. The Gamebuino is a great way to learn how to code games =)

Here's the GitHub rep, my code is messy I'm working on tidying it up - any constructive criticism is welcome!

That is quite a huge area.
I recall we had to make small use of it as it would flick too much on some gamebuinos.

I haven´t tried the game yet, will do soon to check it out.

ok, just tried, nice game!
Grey works fine, occasionally a horizontal darker line goes by the area but that is no trouble at all, one would have to be super picky as it doesn´t degrade the experience.

Thanks for the info, it looks beautiful on my Gamebuino but I'll make it a little smaller

Don´t worry about that, it looks perfect.
I´m being picky with that horizontal line, no normal human would ever see it, I guess I´ve been working with videos for too long. ;)

I updated the HEX with more animations and sound fx :) Not finished though!

Messy code? Oh boy... You didn't see the code BigBlackBox... It's awful but it work...

Tried latest version, animations are all great.
Are you going to add the different ships?

Thanks! :) I'm not adding all the ships because I don't think you're supposed to know which ship you hit until it's sunk. That would be too much of a hint I guess.
I'd like to add player selection though so that you can record stats between 2 or three players. Currently learning EEPROM.

of course! dumb me to propose that! hehe :oops:

The polish on this game is really great, and it's a nice version of battleship for the Gamebuino. I'm looking forward to a CPU opponent. It's interesting to have another game taking advantage of the gray color, since most Gamebuino games seem to avoid it. The shimmering effect of gray is interesting and I think it works well for this game.

Thanks a lot, I got you a CPU opponent! :) HEX in the first post is up-to-date :)
