Light Cycle 3D
by SG57
This is a PSP clone of a Tron Light Cycle racing game. Objective of the game is to make your enemies collide with the trail you leave behind you as you speed along the grid in cyber space.
Features:
- Variety of different skins from a Default black grid in cyber space to the classic environment from the Movie to a more 21st century-esque metal arena.
- Variable number of enemies; go 1v1 or All v All with 4 speeding cycles in one cramped arena - good luck heh..
- Variable speed allowing for greater or lesser difficulty (and chaos)
- Custom paint jobs on your light cycle with 5 customizable components of your cycle; Hull, Window, Rims, Top and Chassis
- Custom MP3 Playback support; PSP/MUSIC and /MUSIC directories supported, 1 level of sub-folders as well
Under the Hood:
- Uses Brick's LTE Lite Mod (with a Fader addition)
- Particle Effects for explosions (more to come)
- Framerate Independent Movement
- A smooth 'chase' camera (to be used in my next project) and you can cycle through targets
- GLTron resources
- Uses PGE Wav and MP3 functionality - by InsertWittyName
Bugs:
- Weird graphical glitch in the engine itself (maybe..) that'll be fixed asap with material coloring (very bad tints)
- Particles disappear the darker you set your hull's color (bug in engine with material type parameter i've deduced)
These will be fixed asap!
Future?:
- Online Multiplayer for sure! Race against your mates across the world hah...
- Free-turning, no longer restricted to 90-degree turns
- Free-riding, no longer restricted to a flat playing field, add some hills, some loops, some jumps
- Different game types; adds some guns, missiles, blinding flashes, tar, invisibility, you name it
