It's here! Slova released!
« on: June 15, 2013, 04:37:41 pm »
After fixing several bugs and adding features, Slova is here!  Slova, a fan-made sequel to Word Rescue, is a 2D platformer aimed at helping you learn a new language.  Your goal is to match English words with words in another language.  Use nuclear weapons to kill the gruzzles that are trying to stop you, and collect E-book readers and letters to increase your high score!

Better yet, you can customize Slova!  You can create language packs for Spanish, French, German, anything you want.  Furthermore, full source is provided.

Included are 4 language packs -- Russian, Dutch, Swedish and English Rhymes.

Enjoy the game, and let me know of any bugs!

Wow that really looks great and fun to play! O.O I'll probably have to read the readme first before playing, though, to figure out how to do so :P

Good job and glad to see you still around :)

It looks great!
Are you planning on including an on-calc editor so you can easily and quickly add the words from a vocab list you have to study?

Yes, but now I'm active as a music composer, which is what I did in college.

That would be a good idea, but I'm going to do almost no programming from this point.  And last time I tried to do an on-calc editor for something I tore my hair out.

Do you still plan to come here on a regular basis once you come back from Russia?

That looks amazing.
I'm going to play this a lot hopefully when I'm studying for french. :P
(That is if someone makes a french-add on pack by then)

Really looks awesome.

It's hard to say.  But I will admit that, without warning, I was gone for a very long time the last three months.   I'm hoping I won't disappear like that again for a while.

I see. Hopefully you stick around for a while longer (even if not as active as before nor programming). It would suck to see you go completely :)

Nice to see this released :)

I've played it for a while now, and the game itself works very nicely. There were some problems with the included files, though.

  • The Swedish pack is one of the old versions. The newest version is available here: http://ourl.ca/18129/341218
  • The Dutch pack uses some capital letters in Dutch words. The collectible versions of those letters are completely black, which makes it impossible to read them until they're collected and causes some collision issues. I've attached a version that only uses lowercase letters.
  • Right now, all of the source files are in the same folder as the readme and exectuable. It would be easier to find the files needed to run the game if the sources are in a separate folder.
  • There's a typo in the game's intro text: "INTELLEGENT" should be "INTELLIGENT".

Thanks!  I'll take care of those.  This is why I didn't release the game on ticalc.org yet :)
