Great suggestions, here's the deal: - Any source code for a rock counter is great, I don't know how - The fact that the rocks don't spawn exactly at the top is intended, just the way I made the code makes this necessary - Health is a little bit beyond me at this point. I'm not that experienced and not enough people put up their source code :( ANY recommendations always welcome though :P

I've never done counters, but I'm sure it can't be too hard, I'll try it out some time. Health would be easy (once again, a health counter I don't know). Just add a variable: int healthLevel = 10; then under the function for where the guy gets hit with a rock: rockHit() { getNeighborblehbleh...(player) if { blah blah rock hit him healthLevel = (healthLevel - 1) if (healthLevel < 1) { game over blah... { } }

@Mr.Sandbox I made a version of this with vertical motion, but I published it as a different scenario called 'Dodge Flier'. In that game, you also have three lives.

Nice job! Could you complete the Acquarium one. I wouldd really like to see what I'm doing wrong. I have all the code done, but my fish don't move like I want them too!

@rjl8789 I published the simulation with the source, at the webpage http://www.greenfoot.org/scenarios/3855 I left comments in some classes explaining how it works. The classes that I did not put comments in were the Animal class second and third fish classes. The Animal class was not my creation, so try to understand that as best as you can. The first fish has comments, and you can understand the other fish with those.

Soon I'm going to be updating this scenario again with a scoreboard! Only problem is that I'm not 100% sure where on the screen I can put it... any suggestions?

I think i got it... I'm looking to have the score up the whole game, but with this last update I made a space in the cloud that won't get blocked.

@cooldude hehe you know, I basically had to become a pro at my own game so that I could test it properly, so that seems kinda funny to me :P

Right now, I think I hold the record with: 1187 points

For lives, you have to have a Counter class of some sort (at least in my experience). In the world class, you do the following: public MyWorld() { public Counter lifeCounter = new Counter("Lives: "); addObject(lifeCounter, x coordinate, y coordinate); } public Counter getLifeCounter() { return lifeCounter; } Now, with other classes you can use getLifeCounter to add and subtract. In the Counter class that I use, there is an add(int score) method, so if I was adding a life, I could do ((MyWorld)getWorld()).getLifeCounter().add(1); and that would add one. Also, if I lose a life, I would do ((MyWorld)getWorld()).getLifeCounter().add(-1); You can do this now from any other Actor you like. The key is the Counter class though.

Hello y'all, I haven't been active on this site for a while, but I recently took a look through the code for this game and almost vomited... So, I decided that I will remake this game following all the proper programming conventions to make the code as easy and sensible as possible.
