game OOP Pokemon

[MVC NVMXD JVRXD 2,406]

mlp pokemon.zipSo I was trying to get into OOP, and the one thing it reminded me of was Pokemon. So I created this!

This is an easily customizable pokemon game. I'm just gonna post the source right now, but tomorrow (May 12th), expect an update. The basic way to create a new Pokemon is this:

Fluttershy=BasePoke:new(100,"Fluttershy",true,false,1,false,'fly')

It may not look like much, but there really is a lot to it. The function BasePoke:__init sets how pokemon should be made.

function BasePoke:__init(hp,name,user,enemy,level,attacking,attackname1)--Sets how you would name a custom pokemon
self.hp=hp
self.name=name
self.user=user
self.enemy=enemy
self.level=level
self.attacking=attacking
self.attackname1=attackname1
end

You'd write: YourPoke=BasePoke:new(100,'YourPoke',true,false,1,false,'fly')

Now if user is set as true, that just means it will appear on the left. Enemy=right. After you do this, in the main.lua, find love.draw() and love.update(dt). In these, put:

function love.draw()
  YourPoke:draw()
end
function love.update(dt)

  YourPoke:fight()
end

Right now, the fight system is like, awful. Just press space to start, and press f to see what happens. This stage, early stuff, is bad because you need to take a lot of time building the foundation, but in doing this you lack a lot of features.

To run the code, you need love2d.

Also, most of the pokemon were not MLP-named, but altered pokemon names to sound like... certain body parts. I think this edit is better for this community

 

Shameless bump!

Poop load of progress, though none of you seem interested I got bored, and created a bunch of pony-pokemon classes. So... screenshots!

Nice to see more people teaching themselves programming. Or anything really.

 

And I like that you used LÖVE.

But if you trying to learn object orientation Java or C# might be a simpler language. Lua handles classes in a weird way.

 

Keep up the good work.

Well i already know a nice amount of LÖVE, so I thought it'd just be easier to learn lua classes, rather a new language.

C++ and Java are taught as the main languages in college and are arguably the most popular languages. Thus they will both have immense documentation. I prefer Java simply because it is multi-platformed. I can't say I have heard of LOVE. it looks much more simple. Good job anyways Edited May 24, 2012 by Bohtty
