Germ Run

Hi,

Here's a game I've been working on.

It's currently only a one level demo but I thought I would put it up anyway to get some feedback on it so far.

Arrow Keys - Direct

Shift - Jump

Space - Shoot

'R' - Restart

'S' - Stop Music

Thank you in advance for your thoughts.

I don't know if this is featured, but arrived on the higher platform (2nd black "octopuss") the screen becomes all white with some yellow circle.

The game isn't frozen, as I can still hear the jumping sound. The view is just opaqued.

From here, I can't pursue the game.

That's odd, I've not come across that and can't seem to replicate it! lol

I've been testing it on Chrome v15.0.874.106 and so far it's been ok. Which browser are you using so I can try it in that one?

Thanks for letting me know! <img src="smileys/smiley1.gif" border="0" align="middle" />

Also, if anyone else has tried the game, feedback would really be appreciated. Even if just to let me know if they get the same error as above. Thanks again!

I have the same problem as Kyatric, white screen and a yellow circle. I'm using Firefox 8.0

FireFox 8.0 here too on win XP.

Interesting. Everything is fine on Chrome. Let me try it in firefox and see what's going wrong.

Although if it's working in Chrome and not firefox I have no idea how I would go about fixing that???? lol

With firebug running:

Index or size is negative or greater than the allowed amount

c2runtime.js line 126.

This sounds like a C2 bug.

Please could you export a non-minified version, host it and post the link.

I'll look into it more in depth and try to see what's buging before making a bug report.

FireBug/Fox seems far more strict than chrome on the "correctness" of the code. It's not the first time that I notice such behavior.

I've now updated the export and file link to a non-minified version.

Thanks for your help, much appreciated.

Ok the error is probably that there is an image missing, since now firebug refers to:

c2runtime.js (line 5783)

The

this.height);

ctx.drawImage(cur_image,
myx - (this.hotspotX * this.width),
myy - (this.hotspotY * this.height),
this.width,
this.height); 

I managed to complete the level using Chrome on Windows 7.

Couldn't even get past a white screen when trying to run on Firefox 4.0 once it indicated the game was loaded. I then updated to 8.0 and as soon as I got up the stack of crates and made it about 1/3 the way across the platform with the second black germ, I too got the same screen discussed above.

So I went back to Chrome and played it through again. Great start!

That's strange, so it can't be something missing from the dropbox server thats just saved in my cache on Chrome if it's worked for you too?!

Because I literally can't find any missing objects or events linked to objects that no longer exist etc. It's really strange.

But thanks for your feedback, it's early stages still, needs cleaning up and levels adding etc <img src="smileys/smiley1.gif" border="0" align="middle" />

*Edit* Also I download Firefox 8 and did encounter the problem, but I must say, even before that point the general performance of Firefox is TERRIBLE compared to Chrome. A much smoother gaming experience with Chrome.

Interestingly enough it felt like it was running faster for me on Firefox but definitely not as smooth as on Chrome (more even experience).
