Is that possible?
« on: June 18, 2011, 12:07:44 pm »
My game idea was Cut the Rope for TI (as an APP).

Spoiler For Picture:
wouldn't it be possible to program Cut the Rope as an APP for the TI?
I'm thinking of using up, down, left and right to point and 2nd to cut a rope. But Omnom should be animated. (Omnom is the green, hungry animal in the game)

But my question is, wherthe it would be possible to do that.
I'm not sure because in Cut the rope every physicalic things must be perfectly programmed and it must be possible to cut many ropes at the same time.

But would it be theoretically possible to make that with Axe??
I'm not sure.

I've never used Axe but from some of the games and apps I've seen yes this would be possible. Though it may need a few changes in the controls like setting the beginning and end of a cut before you do it and such to account for slow speed. If that's even a problem. :P

Builderboy might be the one to go to for physics though. Or you could perhaps try this thread:

Spoiler For IMPORTANT NEWS!:
Late last night, Quebec was invaded by a group calling themselves, "Omnimaga". Not much is known about these mysterious people except that they all carried calculators of some kind and they all seemed to converge on one house in particular. Experts estimate that the combined power of their fabled calculators is greater than all the worlds super computers put together. The group seems to be holding out in the home of a certain DJ_O, who the Omnimagians claim to be their founder. Such power has put the world at a standstill with everyone waiting to see what the Omnimagians will do...

Wait... This just in, the Omnimagians have sent the UN a list of demands that must be met or else the world will be "submitted to the wrath of Netham45's Lobster Army". Such demands include >9001 crates of peanuts, sacrificial blue lobsters, and a wide assortment of cherry flavored items. With such computing power stored in the hands of such people, we can only hope these demands are met.

In the wake of these events, we can only ask, Why? Why do these people make these demands, what caused them to gather, and what are their future plans...

Cut the rope is extremely advanced in terms of rope physics. I think it uses a continuous rope model, and the only practicable rope model in Axe is single stranded. It would work, but it wouldn't look as good.

Its extremely possible, since you could get away with murder on just using single segment ropes. However, why?  Speed lack would be a total troll, and cut the rope requires fast speed for quick actioned puzzles that require fast reflexes.  And cutting ropes would be awkward.  It's possible, not practical.

I just wanted to know if it's possible, because Axe has some problems with decimals and negative numbers.
I wasn't sure because some rops are stretchable and they surely wont be easy to program. Esecially as an APP with Axe.

This topic was just theoreticaly.

I think the problem is not the physics, even if it is hard, it is possible.
As Ashbad said, "cutting the ropes would be awkward" because we don't have a touchscreen.
It would be impossible to do the exact CutTheRope but it is possible to make a game that look like it, such as a cannon that shoots on the ropes or something.

Or the ropes will get numbers and you have to press the key with the correct number.  :)
But It'll be annoying if there are numbers all over the screen.  :P

Not really, negative numbers are easy to deal with, and you can use decimals in 8.8 form if you don't want to worry much.

They aren't, but anyone interested in making them should refer to this.

Making it as a flash app doesn't make it any harder to make it in axe -- only like one or two commands won't work in a flash app because they require the ability to conduct SMC to various degrees.  Most games are programs though because they're easier to deal with n your memory, and they take up less space ;)

You can also use signed comparisons to help you.

And yes, I think this should not be a nightmare to code.

Are you moving on with this?

It's definitely possible to do something like it.  In fact, I would enjoy seeing something like it.  But you would have to make which number cuts which rope pretty intuitive.  The ropes wouldn't be deadly nightmarish to code, but they won't be incredibly easy either.

Remember, they can curve.
