function keypressed() end

CR4SH3D wrote: And finally can you switch a particle system to another without it simply replacing the current ones on the screen but drawing them again from the initial source? Or would i need another particle system entirely to start and stop when a condition is met (ie death)

What's wrong with the timer = timer + dt method?

If I'm correct, you want to move the particles to the old position, not just the system.., unless you're going to change the x and y passed to draw, I don't see it happening, so maybe you want to play around with that.

What?! I can't finish my attempt to kill myself?! (again, haven't played it, so I don't know what you mean by incomplete)

bartbes:

Woah.. did you use an entire timer lib?

Let me ask you this first, why use FPS to decrease values? And as far as I can see the color values are properly updated (unless they are <1 or >255).

To get back to the particles: I don't know if it's possible, I don't think so...

Evil Telephone:
Cool looking game, but incredibly buggy.

- If you use the boost, and then die right after, you can't press Z to start a new game. - fixed(?)
- When you start a new game after dying, you travel REALLY fast for a few seconds. - will be fixed, might sort of be
- You seem to die at random. What exactly kills you? - fixed
- When you start a new game, you still have your old score. - fixed

On the bright side, the controls are very responsive and the particle snake is really awesome looking. You may want to increase particle output when the snake moves faster so it doesn't thin out and become translucent. It's kind of hard to see when that happens.

• Added drone AI (random movement)
  Fixed alot of bugs
  Improved snake entity particles

• Suicide
  Title screen and pausing
  Richochet of enemys when killing them unless boosting

function changeColor( colorchange )
		if score > 1 then
			if color1 < 255 then
					color1 = color1 + 1
					color2 = color2 - 1
					--not here!
			end
		end
		timer.newSimple( 0.003, changeColor, colorchange )
end
