Döts - A silly ripoff

Post by thelinx »

So I saw this video on youtube and I was like I can totally make that in LÖVE, so I did.

döts.love

ndöts.love
For nLÖVE (Caanoo)
(12.16 KiB) Downloaded 574 times
Disclaimer: This game has no menus, lacks score display, lacks music, et.c.
I also have no plans to finish it. To top everything off, the code was written when I was tired. Expect mindfuck.

... Did you use a perpendicular function for bouncing the balls?

Code: Select all

if x<0 or x>width then
vx=-vx
end
if y<0 or y>height then
vy=-vy
end
Your code:

Code: Select all

if x ~= self.position.x or y ~= self.position.y then
		local r = math.atan2((winmid - self.position):reverse())
		self.directionAngle = r + (math.random()-0.5)*math.pi
		self.directionVector = Vector:new(math.cos(self.directionAngle), math.sin(self.directionAngle))
	end
You were right when you said "mindfuck". O_O

If you look closely, you'll see that his version introduced a random element, presumably to make the whole deal more interesting and/or silly.

Even though I said I wouldn't work on this, I did.

I added a primitive menu along with two extra gamemodes, "extreme" and "epilepsy".

Also, there's now a game over screen.

Crazy! :crazy:

It fails, though. Collision is really inaccurate (sometimes I'm making this nice little Venn diagram with the yellow dude, without scoring a point). Also, in epilepsy mode, if you end on black, the score is unreadable.
