Hi,

Now I really want to start the development of this game : a badminton game with a top view like old video games.

https://royexp.itch.io/superbad

I am ok if someone wants to join me (free) to draw character (players) movement.

You can see the first pictures and animation of the game.

I just started the shuttlecock movement and i use old sprite for the players.

The next target will be the character movement (drawing and programming).

See you soon !

There is a video on the game's page !

There is a new video more long on the game's page !

First "IDLE" sprite !

First Shot !

First downloadable demo at https://royexp.itch.io/superbad

a launcher sends shuttlecocks to you to send it back:
Use arrows for moving
Use space to shoot
More longer you let the space bar pressed and more the shot will be far
As soon as you release the space bar the shot is launched

the idea is to refine the gameplay as much as possible

Also thank you for giving me your impressions, bugs, ideas to make the game more visual or real or ... what you think !!!! Before creating the game against an opponent.

Thanks for your opinion !

Thanks Odeki !

do you have downloaded the file ?

New video (N°7) of version 0.03.

The shuttlecock launcher has given way to an AI opponent.
To direct the player, you must use:
Arrows keys to move
"Space" to serve
"W" to clear
"X" to drop
Some sounds have been added.
We can play 1 whole set of 21 points against an AI opponent.
by the end of the month, this first playable version will be available for download.
At the moment, The demo with the shuttlecock launcher where only the space bar is used to return it remains available.

Please after each download leave a comment !!!

This time it is version 0.03 is available for download ! https://royexp.itch.io/superbad
You can finally play against an opponent (computer-controlled) for 1 set.
To direct the player, you must use:
arrows to move
"Space" only to serve
"W" to clear
"X" to drop
In the case of the shooting keys, pressing the key (space, W or X) triggers a target which must be directed with the arrows and when the firing button is released, the shuttlecock moves to the place where it was the target.
This system of shooting is similar to what we find on old tennis games (great cours 2, advantage tennis, ..) especially for the service. The main objective of this game is to have a nice gameplay to play, we will see for future releases if it will be kept especially for the service. It is especially your impressions / wishes that will make this game evolve.
So I'm counting on you to leave a comment on your impressions after each download !!!
