Hi team members,

Last few weeks I was working on some music ideas for the game. I have 9 tracks uploaded on the SkyDrive and it would be great if you would download it and tell me what you think.

There is a new version with enemies, moving platforms, a restart function, new camera and plates that switch the layer of a crate touching it on George's SkyDrive account.

Hi there,

I've added my first version of the main menu prototype to skydrive/prototypes. It's integetrated in superkus movement prototype_0903 so that option selection and key_profile selection can be tested in a working level. I know that the menus look horrible by now (I'm certainly no artist!! ), so please try to ignore their appearence and focus on handling, structure and user-friendlyness. I hope you like it so far, of course it's far from being finished.
Features so far:
-Profiles selection menu
-Profile creation and auto loading function
-New game selection menu (relock feature is only a dummy ba now)
-Basic Game options that are saved with each profile individually
-key profiles selection (I decided to make the key assignment profiles independent from the game profile, I thought that's better and doesn't complicate things too much, as each game profile saves it's key profile selection)

Next to do steps:

-key assignment menu for editing key profiles
-advanced options
-autodetection for grafic options
-highscore menu

That is good news! I have tried to add your code to Superku's code but I am getting some errors. Could you please zip the entire folder and upload it? Thank you.

Ok I uploaded the code again, now containing a compiled exe. I also added a source folder, where you can find all needed files to port my code version to any other modul, and theres also a short description of what to do to get it running.

I hope this helps.

Thank you - great work! It was a misunderstanding; I was looking inside your folder on Skydrive and the good files were somewhere else .
A few notes:
- I'd like to see a "delete profile" button as well. Please make sure to add a confirmation box before performing the actual operation.
- If you try to create a new profile, you can't use the "cancel" button because inkey is active.
- How will the "auto" graphic detail work? I suggest that we should display a complex level behind the main menu panels, measure the frame rate for (let's say) 5-10 seconds, compute the average and then decide what to enable or disable.
- We also need a few resolutions for wide screen monitors: 1280x800, 1366x768, 1600x900 and 1920x1080 should be more than enough. We should also add what I call the "optimal" resolution, given by screen_size.x and screen_size.y - this one gives the best video quality for any monitor.
- I'm not sure how the "key assignments" section will work, but I think that it should display the actual keys, not the profile names, so that the player can remember them or change them.
Once again, you have done a great job; I appreciate it. Oh, and your programmer's graphics look much better than mine

I finally managed to check out your menus modul and it's great, very functional & efficient I like the game-levels map screen- that's a good idea.

Once we start with game visual-prototype development there will be a need for 4 more things: anti-aliasing(0-9), shaders(on/off), post-processing effects(on/off) & invert-mouse(on/off).
...maybe we should also make a water effect to be optional, or at least with higher/lower bmap resolution?

Some of these might be too technical for the average, casual game player, so maybe we should incorporate them in the "graphic detail" options, without giving the player direct access to them.

Add "Advanced graphic options" or so.

I seen your work on the menu and I must say I'm impressed
I would also like to suggest adding program solution for sound effects and menu music. I could upload temp music that you can use for the menu and temp sound effects for all clicks. Once the menu is visually completed by the guys from the Art team i could upload adequate music and sound effects.

Keep up the good work
