PSParty beta has just been released by me here: [Release] PSParty Beta, and I am looking for some devs who could make some minigames (coded in LUA) for PSParty

I will be giving rewards for those who make minigames:
1 minigame= 5,000 points
2 minigames = 12,000 points
3 minigames = undecided. Willl be a lot.

Here are the criteria:

1. The game MUST have some sort of score. Make the score variable named "score" without the quotes.

2. Don't make the minigame too long or too short. At least 15 seconds for a minigame, and no longer than a minute.

3. In the beginning of your game put in a range of what the average score is like this

Code:

range={low, high}

Just replace low and high with numbers.

4. When you have your game end, put return at the end. For example:

Code:

if game=over then
return 
end

I will do anything else. If you have a minigame, please send it to me in a PM titled "PSParty Minigame."

Now get coding!

Um... custom titles are gone now. I know it says there's 99 of them, but it's for mods only.

Anyway, good job on your release.

Whenever you want. No limit on wqhen you have to have it by.

psp-justice · 05-28-2006, 10:20 AM

This is looking nice. Before I could program I also wanted to make a PSParty game. Maybe now I 'll try to make mini-games for yours. I am first gonna test it and will let you now soon.

lol, i bought a three month thing. and does any1 have any ideas for a game i can use?

**FrozenIpaq** · 05-28-2006, 11:14 AM

On the topic of 3 minigames = custom title... I would not like to have them have a title that they choose, it would have to be something like: PSParty MiniGame Creator, or PSParty MG creator. Changing your title to something you personally want and like is a premium member feature..sorry

**Bronx** · 05-28-2006, 12:58 PM

hey, psphaxor can u help me the save game part? i have the rest coded for a mini game!

**Kos** · 05-28-2006, 01:11 PM

He explained to me that it is for non-premuims. Non-premuims cant change their title, so he takes advantage of the "Change Someones Title" item to change it.

Something like this:

Code:

file = io.open("highscore.txt" "w")
file:write("Score = " .. score)
file:close()

I'm guessing along the lines of that.

**SpiderJames** · 05-28-2006, 03:39 PM

I will try top make one, I already have a good idea for one

**PopcOrn DeVil** · 05-28-2006, 04:20 PM

I might make a mini game of SBA

. Now I gotta do a lot of testing to see how long an average game takes, which isn't that long.

**SpiderJames** · 05-28-2006, 06:45 PM

arggh, I am so new to this. This is so frustrating. But I will finish in no time

No, you don't.

**SG57** · 05-28-2006, 07:27 PM

Define mini game... Like mini as in that Wario thing mini... or like Mario party mini...

I will make one just for the sake of LUA and me... my C has been trampling on it for me...

Basically in between. If you play PSParty you'll see about the right length.

**SG57** · 05-28-2006, 08:12 PM

Ok... i have a mini game in my head after playing a couple off Mario Party #here... Its a 1 player thing though... is that ok?

They're all one player things. Play PSParty please

**SG57** · 05-28-2006, 08:22 PM

Oh sorry lol... Lua Player Windows couldnt get past the play against computer screen... So does it matter what character used? The minigames already in there have predefined charcaters (bandicoot for the catch one only?)

No, not at all. Each game has one character for the game, whether it be Crash, a Chao, or some guy in a red shirt and jeans.

**Theknightinhell** · 05-28-2006, 08:29 PM

awesome man. This is gonna be awesome when it's finally released
