Re: FLASH: Game Check! Sliders from Mars!

[Charles Goran]

I originally wanted the player to have to use the shield to block against all un destroyed burgers. But I found that with the way I had architected the game, I had gotten myself in a corner. So, out of desperation I came up with this other (shake) object to be the end game lynch pin. I too was thinking an ammo

counter might be cool. This was made for a food related site.


Thank you for your comments!


Cheers,

Charles

Maybe make Mars a pizza, the stars bubbles, space as a glass of Coke or something...
