Title: Embed a file into game and later extract [SOLVED]
Post by: Etcher Squared Games on Sun 27/02/2005 06:53:34

I tried finding this, but no luck in help or boards.Ã,Â I fear I may not have been using the correct keywords.

What I want to do, is have some files embedded into my game, and once the play beats the game, I want to dump these files on the harddrive.Ã,Â These are going to be images that are "behind the scenes" stuff for fun.

This isn't a HAVE TO HAVE in my game, just something I thought I'd throw in.Ã,Â If all else fails I can have a link on the net that I give you once you beat the game...

thank you

Did you consider a "Production Gallery" button on the title screen that is enabled when the game is beaten? Then you could present the behind the scenes images interactively.
Some commercial games do this.
You could also have something like Indy Quotient points that add up to unlock images in the gallery.

Yeah that'd probably be better, and as you said, more like what production companies do.

thanks
