Nice work on this. Took me a while to figure out how to place tetras, but I got it eventually.

You can pick up tetras from the loading zones without being in the triangle. Maybe you should asses penalties for that. :)

I love it, I am going to play this all day tomorrow, since I am going to be sick from school tomorrow ;) Thanks for spending the time to make this.

Re: TRIPLE PLAY the Flash Game
 

That is so awesome!! May i suggest that eventually there are several options for your robot aka you can chose to be fast with a slow arm or slow with a fast arm?

Re: TRIPLE PLAY the Flash Game
 

Very cool game. You have a future programing flash games. I wish my robot could single handedly get 100+ points a round. Now for some constructive criticism

Pros:
Arm height variation
claw (when u get it working)
field was flawless
damage counter
battery life

Cons:
no competition ( i know that would be hard)
human zone is instantaneous
robot is a lot slower than most real robots

And some ideas:
have the robot slow down a little as the battery drains
make it so that u can release tetras
have red tetras randomly appear as 'competition'

Re: TRIPLE PLAY the Flash Game
 

I still am stuck at 120 :mad: ...

What kind of strategies are you guys using?

I am starting by grabbing a "vision" and going down field then going to autoload and taking it down field and working my way back to my home row...what other ways are you guys playing this game?

Re: TRIPLE PLAY the Flash Game
 

120- 9 capped, two extra, and behind the line

Edit: 132 now

Re: TRIPLE PLAY the Flash Game
 

Is there a way you could put the actual .fla file for download ??
I've been looking for something like that for a long time ...
I'll appreciate it.

Re: TRIPLE PLAY the Flash Game
 

Those are good ideas i will try to add some of them.
It may be a little while till i can update the game because i missed 3 days of school for nationals and finals arn't to far away but i will defiantly keep it updated.
I'm going to add a really nice intro with the story behind FIRST so people who don't know about it will understand.

Thank You for all the ideas and comments i will try and do some of them
i really don't think i can add an opponent or 2 players because normal keys don't work well with flash but i have some other methods to try.

Re: TRIPLE PLAY the Flash Game
 

I like the updated version! Cheat codes?!?!?! So do we totally have to guess the codes or are they "encoded" in the game somehow?

Re: TRIPLE PLAY the Flash Game
 

So what exactly is the claw for?

Re: TRIPLE PLAY the Flash Game
 

Amazing game I love it.
If you have time you could make it so that the more points you score you get upgrades to your robot to make it move faster, etc. Maybe levels with opponents. That must be hard though. But overall this game is INSANE, once you perfect it I suggest you send it to some online flash game websites, i'm sure they'll be happy to host it. :D

Re: TRIPLE PLAY the Flash Game
 

I love this game. I tried making a game like it with our robot but I know nothing of Actionscript coding in Flash. Their claw was to keep hold of the tetras. I know this all too well. They defeated us in the finals at St. Louis, good job guys.

Re: TRIPLE PLAY the Flash Game
 

i have yet to play this game...but it's taking up a lot of some of mine friend's time...so it must be good....

i saw it though and it looks great!! great job!! eventually i'll play...in a few weeks then i can have all the fun i want..i can't wait....

Re: TRIPLE PLAY the Flash Game
 

Wow, this is really fun. I hope you decide to make it a two player game one of these days ;)
Great job! I'm not very good at it though.

Re: TRIPLE PLAY the Flash Game
 

I thought it was awesome that i could score 12 tetras on the center goal
No ones robot could stack that high.
