The previous installer turned out to be faulty. So here's a different installer that should work this time.
So now nothing is stopping you from trying out the fruit of our labors. So what are you waiting for? Click the link and get the game!!
EDIT: You will also need to install The .NET Framework 4.0 Redistributable and XNA Framework Redistributable 4.0 Refresh software packages.
MECHAGEDDON HAS BEEN RELEASED!!! (sorta)
Why 'sorta'? Because we (team Gemini Aegis) are not done with this project yet. Think of this as a "Golden - Beta" release.
Below is a link that will allow you to download the "completed" Mechageddon game.
https://dl.dropbox.com/u/64480643/Mechageddon.zip
Feel free to play it to your heart's content. If you have any feedback you'd like to give just drop us a line here.
This far from being the end for Mechageddon, so keep checking back here for updates on the game!!!
Coming close to the completion of the beta. Enjoy
Diego
More updates completed in the project. The next step, in addition to playtesting, is to begin the creation of a 4th AI. Not going to reveal any details as to what this detail is (if Ellis or Curtis wish to, they may), but it'll hopefully be a very enjoyable one.
Diego
This is Eli here! I'm just here to post some pics of the main character and enemy's death sprites. The Main character death animation will play before the game over scene and the enemy deaths will show either when they die or when the player completes a wave.
Another progress video for this week's work on the Mechageddon project. In addition to the updates done within the game, we are beginning to look into implementing Xbox Controller input, mainly for the port for Xbox Live Arcade. Stay tuned for more updates.

This is Eli. Posting a link to a video that has some game-play video of Mechageddon. Enjoy! Credit: Music playing in background is "Newgrounds Rumble Theme" Here's the link to the website for the music: www.newgrounds.com/audio/listen/83543
Art and Sound Update!!!
To anyone who is reading this blog, Hello! I'm the "Art Director", if you want to call it that, of The Mechageddon Project. You can call me Ellis or Eli. Either one I'm fine with. I'm taking this time to update some of the in-game photos that Curtis placed on the blog. The last picture we had up only showed the player as a black square, towers as red and blue circles and enemies a still square images. Well here is an updated look at the game:
As you can see, we made the towers have smaller sprites, colored the main character and the enemies sprites and added a life bar and currency counter to the game. Also there are now sound effects for when the player attacks and when the player takes damage. I will be posting more information on my area within two day interval. Till next time!
Spring Break Update
Hey guys, we've been on spring break for the past week (did I mention this game is a college project?), so we're not working as intensively on game as we have been in the past few weeks.
The second half of the project starts in early May, where we will be working toward the final product. We're at the alpha stage right now, and in two months we should be ready to release the game (we better be at least).
When I can manage to get the right software I'll make a video and upload it to this blog to show you all where we are with the game at this moment (probably make a youtube account at the same time).
Till then...
We're getting there, but we're not there yet.
Currently, we've got the tower shooting, the player avatar shooting, enemies spawning and moving, and the sprites are moving as they should (although we haven't put them into the main code yet).
However, at this point the enemies can only be killed the bullets from the player avatar, but not the bullets from towers. There is also no collision between the towers themselves and the enemies (the enemies just go right through them)
Here's a screen shot of the game as it is (without the animations).
The blue and red dots are towers. The little white dots are the bullets from the towers.
We hope to have the collision working fully soon.
Our art guy is really doing a great job with the sprites. Here are the sprite sheets for the player and enemies. Soon we'll have these colored and moving.
Game production is still underway. We've come up against afew hiccups, but this is a learning experience, so small setbacks are to be expected.
While we continue to work on the game, I though I'd leave you with what might end up being the logo you see in the opening credits when the game starts.
Cool, huh?
Hey guys,
today I am going to share how we plan to work out the height of our sprites in the game. As you can see from the image below, the toasters will be the small sprite on the field, followed by the blenders, then the main character, and finally the refrigerators will be the biggest things in the game.
A few announcements.
In the next few post I am going to be introducing you to the Mechageddon team members so you can finally put faces to our names and get to know us better.
Also, I won't be using this blog anymore. I am going to be created a new blog on tumblr. I'll be sure to provide the link to the new blog in my next (and final post) in this blog.
Until next time.
Heres an idea of what the gameplay will look like...
The blue bar represent where the player can move.
The green squares represent towers.
The red squares represent enemies .
(The actual grid is a 12x16 grid)
*Sighs*
We have to do a presentation tomorrow (today technically). It's basically a little update on how we are doing with the game.
So far we have enemies spawning, we can place towers onto the field, and we have a avatar that can shoot at the enemies.
What remains to be done?
We need to get the different guns working (two max), the towers (two again) and the enemy A.I.. The dreaded, DREADED A.I.
It's only a little frustrating because none of use have ever done any real A.I. before, but we'll figure it out, hopefully.
I really don't want to have dumb enemies just mindlessly walking from one end of the screen to the other....
More later....
Hey, guys (whoever is reading this :D ).
Just wanted to share some of the cool concept art we've got from our artist is from St.Croix.
These are our three enemy types: Blenders, Toasters, and Refrigerators. We're thinking about putting wheels on the blenders though. We want them to move fast!
I'll be back later with more updates. Stay tuned!
Welcome
Welcome to the Mechaggedon Project!
Over the next couple weeks I will be using this blog to document the progress made on the game my two colleagues (Ellis and Diego) and myself (Curtis).
The game is set in a post-apocalyptic world where machines all over the planet have revolted against their human master. Their leader? A sentient toaster named Lord Master Toast, The Supreme! (See Below) You must do everything you can to defend what remains of the human race while you wait for rescue.
Be sure to check back as we go through the process of making the game!
