   The Adventures of Felix Fox - Dream Master (My Last Game)
  INTROI'm sure by now the veterans of this board have heard of my project once [grin]. If not the story is of a fox named Felix who does nice deeds but often is pulled into something drastic. This time the battle occurs within the dreams of the Felix. The tone changes from time to time but I think you'll know I'm aiming for about the [T] range. It took me about a two months and a half to make and I really rushed near the end to beat my deadline so I'll expect some errors.NOTES-It's optimized to use smart joy and it's modeled after the Gamecube controller.-I know I've used music that wasn't mine. I'll happily remove it the slightest notice. It's not if I have any intention of profiting from this.-It runs on a Nvida Geforce 5500 card with 256MB, a pentium 1.7ghz 4 processor, and 768MB RAMDOWNLOADDownload (25MB)(You can get old projects from) http://www.freewebs.com/antiguyx/project.htmBACKGROUNDThis will be my last game. I was hoping that creating games will lead me to the gaming industry (NINTENDO!!!) but as time passed and I learned more, now I'm pretty sure it won't. Now I'm forced to get a job or go to college but I plan to find another way in. I've got until January 1st so I'm going to take the next couple of days to relax! Enjoy the game![Edited by - AntiGuy on December 5, 2005 6:30:18 PM]
  I can't download it right now, but the screenshots look awesome.Also, even if making games at home doesn't land you a game industry job, why stop? I know that the simple 2D games that I make aren't going to get me a game industry job either, but I do it because it is what I love to do. I see that screenshot of your game, and I wish I could make a game that looked half as good as that.That's just my opinion, though.   ;  What language did you use for that game, and how hard have you tried to get in with these demos?  Have you sumbmitted them to the big guys yet?  Perhaps attended GDC and showed them off?   ;  Congrats on your latest Felix game. Sad to see you leave though.Good luck on whatever the future holds for you. ;)   ;  So, do the college thing, keep making games, and land a job in the industry.  If you're making games like that it's in your reach. It looks nice.;  Howdy,I played the game, and it rocked.  On the plus side, the graphics were beautiful, everything was fast and fun, and the sounds were great.  On the minus, the camera was a little jerky, there were a few graphical glithces, and I would've liked a little more variety, but otherwise pretty awesome.From everything I've read/heard, college is practically essential to getting into the industry today anyhow.  So if you want to leave a door open for that, go for a CS degree or something similar.  There's nothing stopping you from making games in your spare time (and you'll quickly find that, although everyone hypes college up as being incredibly hard, you'll still have plenty of time to make fun little games).  Cheers,--Brian;  Would any of you believe I actually want to be a game designer? I knew I couldn't build a team off a story so I actually ended up doing everything else. Unfortunatly everything else cut into my designing so everything didn't work out as I would've liked it. Two months and a half isn't a long time for a perfectionist. [sad]   ;  Wow I never realized how many errors I had from changing things at the last second. I've taken the time to fix them. I'd like to at least go out decently.- Couldn't load data.- Trouble changing controls- Item problems- Extra commands   ;  You already know what I think of your work, Master Preston, I just wanted to voice my support publically.  I'm sure in the future, you'll have some fans waiting to see your next project.  Brick by brick, right?
