cool game bro XF
Wow, amazing style and feel to Orange Roulette. I love it! Please make more like it!
It's a very interesting game, I liked it a lot.
Quick question though: how exactly did you 'simulate' the spin, as opposed to using a simple 1 in 6 probability? What factors did you take into consideration, gravity, friction, weight?
I must say, the whole feel to Orange Roulette was actually quite tense. If you had made it even more serious, with art work themed around something more human, it might have ramped up the tension even more. Though the grim humour might be lost...
I can't say which I'd have liked more, but I definitely think that you could move further in this direction if you wanted. I'm almost sad that it ended so soon.
Your "Luck is an Illusion" badge is kind of a middle finger to badge collectors. ):
I loved orange roulette :3
Please tell me how did you simulate cylinder spin, I'm a nerd :3
public function spinner():void {
var place:int = 0;
for (var i:int = 0; i < 6; i++) {
if (Global.bullets[i] == 1) {
place = i;
}
}
for (i = 0; i < spinamount; i++) {
if (place < 6) {
place += 1;
}
if (place>5){
place = 0;
}
}
for (i = 0; i < 6; i++) {
if (i == place) {
Global.bullets[i] = 1;
}else {
Global.bullets[i] = 0;
}
}
}
(Global.bullets is the array that represents the cartridge. 1=bullet, 0=empty. So the array, if the bullet is in the first slot, looks like this: [1,0,0,0,0,0]. When this function is called, it 'spins' the array for the amount randomly picked by 'spinamount'. So it moves the '1' however many spaces that are 'spinamount', always moving right, but looping back after six spaces back to one (or zero, as the array sees it), to simulate the cylinder.)
(That variable 'place' is temporarily used to mark the placement of the bullet. And if this stuff confuses you, it totally confuses me too, I just don't think about it that way while I'm programming ...)
so what are possible values for 'spinamount'? I don't know programming.
btw how to get overripe medal?
Orange Roulette was a spoof right? I can't remember the old movie it reminds me of.
But you're my new favorite animator. Plus you helped me find CELL CRAFT again! I was looking all over NG for that game a month ago, and now I see it's on your profile! Thanks man.
Hello! I just wanted to say that you are a fucking genious! Thanks for making me laugh through these years :)

Always shoot the other person.
You shoot opponent
You shoot yourself
Opponent shoots himselt
You shoot opponent
You shoot yourself
Opponent shoots himselt
As you see, you are twice as likely to win as your opponent.

Truth!
The human has a definite advantage just by always getting first turn. As long as you don't blast yourself right away. And then the AI doesn't try to shoot you.
