Good work so far, paintball games are always fun. I would love to help you with gfx and coding. I could make some backgrounds for you and so forth. Im not so good with animation, but I'll give it a go if you would like. My knowledge of coding for the psp is lacking, but I could help with coding structures and so forth.

Just tell me how you are doing your coding and what gfx formats your using and I should have something for you pretty soon. Basically, tell me everything I need to know to help you in everyway possible. I've never used Lua, but I'm sure my knowledge of other languages could help you.

To be honest, I've not tried the game, but have you thought about adding platforms and things for people to hide in or behind? You most likely have thought about that.

You have most likely thought about this aswell, but try to code your gfx in a way that allows you and other people to make their own gfx without having to change any code. Also try to have most of your controls and other details put into a config file for easy editing, I know how to do this(In C++), so if you need a hand just drop me a line.

Here's my e-mail: [email protected]

Send me a message asap and we can start getting your great little game in the history books.

Peace.

Cool idea for a Lua game. Looks good too...I can make some splatting sprites for this if you want.

This one seems to have a lot of potential. I would like to see how it turns out in future releases.
