Title: The King of Rock- host no longer needed
Post by: viktor on Mon 17/05/2004 21:25:00
story:
Ok the story is sort of clishee.
Your name is Brian May. No!!! I'm just mesing with you. It's just Brian.
Brian is a eger yung boy that likes music and wants to becme big one day.
Next weeks batle of the bands is your big break. There's just one problem. You have no band.
Well then. GET THEM TOGETHER. The band is mising a singer, a bass player and a drumer.  But that isn't the only obstacle. Let that be a surprise.
The graphics arent very good though. At least in my opinion.

I'M LOOKING FOR SOMEONE WHO WILL UPDATE MY GAME TO THE NET!!!

rooms looks good, but i would advise against putting exclamation points in their save name.  you can also show images here by putting [img ]urlhere[/img ]    but take out those spaces before braces.

i would shorten the guys right foot (on our left) of the first guy shown. his foot is too pointed downward to be standing correctly.  very nice sprites and bg!

Looks very cool, as it is already awesome since it has a poster of Brian May and Queen just rock...

And seriously dude, if you use the name, King of Rock, you need to have Run DMC's song, King of Rock as the theme tune... that'd be awesome. :)

(The top of the door is off perspective in the room picture)

The characters are small but with good detail.  Have you tried animating them yet?

I look forward to seeing more.
Title: Re: The King of Rock
Post by: viktor on Tue 18/05/2004 13:45:44
yeah i did but I still got to work on that. The animations were crapy and until I don't fix the rooms and the charaters I wont have time to do that. I thnik I'll do the animations after I make the actual game.

and here is a litle more info bout the game. The mp3 payer we were talkin about in the beginer section will play musik from 4 well know rock bands. As well as one little less known. So I hawe a fawor to ask of you. What is your faworite queen sonG ( I like them all so my wote doesn't count  ;D)

here are my modified characters and fixed rooms:

Well, my personal favourite is too hard to pick... but if I had to pick, I'd pick one of these:

Who Wants to Live Forever
The Show Must Go On
Hammer to Fall
Fat Bottomed Girls
Princes of the Universe
A Kind of Magic
I Want It Now
Radio Ga Ga

Seriously, how could you ask such a question... it's too hard... :-\

OK OK. The question is too hard. Let's limit it to your faworite album. Maybee that would be easier.
Good choises by the way.

Post by: LordHart on Thu 20/05/2004 15:35:35
It'd have to be A Kind of Magic then... as it has most of the songs from Highlander, which is also one of my favourite movies (and obviously why I like so many of the Queen songs I listed)... ;D
Title: Re: The King of Rock
Post by: viktor on Thu 20/05/2004 15:51:19
OK. Although my vote doesn+t cound. I just gota say it. I have 2 favorite albums. The first is definetly QUEEN ROCKS. The second is sheer heart attack.
I like the highlander movie too. Say didi you ever wach the flash gordon film. I realy thought the quality would be better. But since this forum is for games, I'll just shut up...

Thanks.
And I don't know yet. It'll probably (even in the zip fil) be biger that 10 Mb. That's becouse i'm gona use a lot of musik (no sound efects. If the game is gona be evaluated good I might even make a talkie)

Dude, you better have a poster of Freddie Mercury on one of those walls, you had just better or I'll boycott the game. (The game? reminds me of a Queen Album).
I just found this thread and nearly wet my pants, I love Queen, the beatles were nothing compared to Queen.
Bohemian Rhapsody sshould deffinately be the opening song or if it's about a player trying to make it big then I want it all would be more fitting.

ARGH! Queen is my favourite band of all time!! You're awesome!

Now I have another game I'm really looking out for... god damn.

The screenshots and everything look good too. I'm glad you actually have decent artistic skills for a game with so many Queen references. Make me proud! That's an order.
Title: Re: The King of Rock
Post by: viktor on Tue 25/05/2004 14:47:22
zhamx guys. The game is already complete. I only have to di the intro credits and startup screen. But don't expect to much of good playability becouse it's my first game. And I still have to find someone who will upload my game to the net. Unfortunetly I don't know how to add a zip file to my web site. I'm using DREAMWEAVER so if anyone knows how to do it. Please inform me.
Title: Re: The King of Rock
Post by: Chicky on Tue 25/05/2004 17:02:52
i dont use dreamweaver but try logging onto your mainsite thing, be it freewebs.com or whatever. And where you would upload the site just upload the game file.

err thats what i do anyways  :-\

Ok I know I said I won't post any pictures no more. But I'm just so damn pleased with diss one that I just have to show it.

P.S.
Don't think that this is all my work. If you want more info on this go wisit www.rocktoons.com
I just wanted to say this becouse I feal a little guilty. The original art work is from Jordi Peters. I'll make sure that he's included in the credits.

damn it I only just noticed this post. RIGHT ON. The beatles are good but not that good. And I'll have to dissapoint you. There will not be any of those tracks in the game. But there is a freddy mercury picture...

OK THE GAME IS OFICIALY FINISHED. Well not finished. There are probably still some bugs in it that I didn't notice. Remember this is my first game so...
I need somebody to post it on the net. It's about 6,8  Mb. And even that's becouse of the optional music (there are 10 midis available). I alreasdy send some PMs but I would still like to go on the safe side and ask someone to post my game. So anybody willing to do that please contact me einther by PM or on this e-mail: viktor.hochtl@guest.arnes.si

The game looks good and interesting. Too bad that you have finished the game because I would suggest to use an Elvis Presley song. I know he's not a band but he's really a legend of the Rock N Roll and also the one who made it so popular. Just a suggestion though.

Hm...
Maybe in the king of rock and roll series. But "rock" and "rock and roll" are not the same.
Although QUEEN to had rock and roll.

just a little info:
Elvis played the song this thing called love. Did you know that queen were the original artist?  8)

The song's name is Crazy litttle thing called love and Elvis never sang it, since he was Dead when Queen released it.

OOPS. Than it wasn't elvis. I know someone sang that song and was oftem mistaken for writing it...
my bad...
Title: Re: The King of Rock- host no longer needed
Post by: goldenmonkey on Wed 09/06/2004 03:49:33
The way Freddie sings the song it sounds very much like Elvis and Elvis is often mistaken as the artist.
But it is none other than Queen.
