Angelwolf Posted October 12, 2017 Share Posted October 12, 2017 Nightmare PrismAn entry for the Halloween 2017 Game Jam Nightmare Prism is a shameless Quake clone. Since buying Leadwerks, I've wanted to make something in the style of the id Software titles of the 90's - a special time in gaming for me. Much like the id Software titles - Nightmare Prism has a very basic story. Data-Dyne Technologies (HQ is in an old castle with advanced laboratories beneath) have researched and, to a degree of success, managed to build their own teleportation systems. Teleportation is finally possible, but powered through a Crystal Prism. The downside? The Crystal Prism has some kind of demonic force attached to it: Not only does the Prism give the teleport pads the unique power they need to operate, but it also provides a gateway for vile, blood thirsty creatures to cross from their world into ours. All the scientists and researchers are dead, blah blah, you're the one marine left who can save the day! Have fun!

Are other games working for you in the Game Launcher? Not sure why the launcher is bugging for you before it even tries to start the game Quote My Games: Nightmare Prism:::WolfTale:::Dungeon Creeper:::Despair of Ordinary Men:::Piano Simulator 2016:::House (W.I.P) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not sure why the launcher is bugging for you before it even tries to start the game If I remember correctly, the GUI style is something I dropped right before the final release. You might have old GUI scripts that were designed during the beta. It should work if you just replace those with the current ones I think.

CangoJoe Posted October 14, 2017 Share Posted October 14, 2017 Doesn't seem to work for me either. It tries to start but then crashes to the desktop with error message: Lua Error: [string "C:/Program Files (x86)/Steam/steamapps/common/Leadwerks Game Launcher/Game/Scripts/GUI/Panel.lua"]:52: attempt to call method 'GetStyle' (a nil value) Process complete. What resolution is the game intended to be played in? Maybe if I preset my resolution prior to starting the game might help. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

For clarification, is this an issue with the launcher or my game? Ie, is this something I need to resolve or those using the launcher? Publishing the game standalone seems to work just fine.

The problem is your GUI scripts should be replaced with the latest. I bet you have not updated your project in a long time?

Josh Posted October 14, 2017 Share Posted October 14, 2017 BTW, it looks sick. Like a cross between Unreal Tournament 4 and Quake 1.

I'll try updating tonight, hopefully it won't give too much work for me to update. Then I'm hoping you can all play!

What's causing this? Josh, are there many scripts I need to update for this? Could I just copy over the GUI file (panel.lua) from the Leadwerks Launcher install over to my project, into the respective directory?

randomdude Posted October 15, 2017 Share Posted October 15, 2017 I acutally played it. Has some cool mechanics. The death sound of the rat-things is really funny. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

FortifyThisMFker! Posted October 19, 2017 Share Posted October 19, 2017 Downloaded it twice to make sure, I think the zip file was corrupt, crashes or ends at the end of level 2. the first time I ran out of ammo and jumped past enemies to find more but the second time I cleared it like a champ. I like how were both making old id inspired projects I see you one-up'ed them by making a chaingun-shotgun, very nice! It plays well.

Angelwolf Posted October 22, 2017 Author Share Posted October 22, 2017 Thank you! Map03 doesn't exist yet so it'll crash out when you finish Map02. I'm working on Map03 though (next upload also has a couple of bug fixes, such as health packs and ammo packs giving the correct quantities, they're rather generous right now due to some bad code). After that, hopefully more maps. I should really include some kind of melee weapon or very weak gun with unlimited ammo at some point.

Angelwolf Posted October 29, 2017 Author Share Posted October 29, 2017 Really hoping I can finish Map03 by the time the comp closes Quote My Games: Nightmare Prism:::WolfTale:::Dungeon Creeper:::Despair of Ordinary Men:::Piano Simulator 2016:::House (W.I.P) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Angelwolf Posted October 30, 2017 Author Share Posted October 30, 2017 Okay, Map03 is finished, some bugs have been fixed, and the standalone has been re-uploaded. Link in original post. Enjoy! And here's a video featuring all maps if you're sitting on the fence: Quote My Games: Nightmare Prism:::WolfTale:::Dungeon Creeper:::Despair of Ordinary Men:::Piano Simulator 2016:::House (W.I.P) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mdgunn Posted November 4, 2017 Share Posted November 4, 2017 Great effort. My poor aim led to me running out of ammo (near the end I think) . If I could punch, that might be an option. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Angelwolf Posted November 4, 2017 Author Share Posted November 4, 2017 If you're talking about Map03, the final gauntlet is designed to be run through, not necessarily fought through But you're right, I think some kind of melee option is needed Quote My Games: Nightmare Prism:::WolfTale:::Dungeon Creeper:::Despair of Ordinary Men:::Piano Simulator 2016:::House (W.I.P) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mdgunn Posted November 4, 2017 Share Posted November 4, 2017 Ah right......it was a close thing really. I did kill all but 2, if I was at the end, ..a lift up? Unfortunately the 2 fire imp creatures followed me into the lift....I was sort of playing around with them. They killed me in the lift. Game-play wise....maybe better I lost like that than had an easy escape. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
