Escape Prison (Official) Thread!
Hello everyone, this thread will be a place where I may post some new info on my game, "Escape Prison". Hopefully after this I will continue working on the game after I make this thread, because if I don't, then the thread would be pointless.
Ok, so screenshots of some new stuff may be coming soon, but here is a quick completion chart to show how "complete" the next version of the game is so far:
V.0.2.8 completion (14%)
As for any new news, currently I am working on the next build of the game, V.0.2.8, which will basically be an updated version of V.0.2.1. V.0.2.8 will add in sprites to give a general idea of what the rooms look like, but of course not all rooms will have sprites. V.0.2.8 will also fix the "incorrect damage" bug in combat.
Suggestions are welcome, as long as they aren't impossible to add in.
And feel free to report any bugs here!
●Do you need help with anything?
With how easy the game currently is to program, i don't think i would need help, but help is appreciated.
●Do you need testers?
I may need a few testers, maybe only one or two though. If you are interested in testing the next build, send me a message and i will determine whether or not you will be a tester.
(this may sound stupid) How would i make the Z-offset of the sprite lower?First things first though, i do need help with something: is there any way to display text over a sprite?Text, as in text on the console? Either make the Z-offset of the text higher (negative) with LOCATE or make the Z-offset of the sprite lower (positive) with SPOFS.

SPOFS ID%,X%,Y%,Z%Z% is an optional parameter which is why you don't always use it. Use some positive number
Ah, i was assuming i would have to do something like that, anyway thanks!(this may sound stupid) How would i make the Z-offset of the sprite lower?First things first though, i do need help with something: is there any way to display text over a sprite?Text, as in text on the console?

Putting some pictures on this thread would be nice to see. Just seeing what the game actually looks like. Or if you don’t put them on here, a link to the submission thread which (I think) has pictures of the game already.I'll get some pictures up as soon as my computer will start working again. I don't know why it is acting up, but it is super annoying. Be warned though, the pictures will probably look bad once i get them up.
Wouldn’t you be 11% completely done if you have 5% story, 3% sprites, and 7% area?
[poll=p315][/poll]
I know that this is unrelated to "Escape Prison", but there is nowhere else for me to put this poll. Anyway, since "The adventure engine" is basically just a lazy edit of "dungeon tanken", I'm debating whether or not I should release it. Currently I am leaning more toward not releasing it, as it doesn't feature many "new" features, only having to find the map and getting a key to open the door.
UPDATE 2/17/2018
I lied when I said I was working on the custom engine for Escape Prison, what I was really doing was what I normally do, be lazy and get distracted on other SB projects, as well as updating some of my other older projects.
After I get done with a currently secret project, I may come back to this and continue development on the engine.
