Adding zombies to my shooting game on xcode 7 on macbook air 2015!

Hi guys, it's me again,

and in this video I'm going to show you

how I can change these into an

image I created. So this is the zombie I

want to change it to. I drew this on my

phone, so it's just a simple,

simple image, and I saved it as a PNG.

So we're going to download it. And here it

is, Project 63. And then what you

want to do is you want to drag

it into the supporting files and

then just press Finish. Now I'm not sure

if it's the right size, if it's going to

be good enough quality, but we shall try

anyway. Hang on. Just need to change this.

Okay, so what we do is select all these

bad guys.

I'm holding Command. I think on Windows

you have to hold Control. And then go

into this 4th tab, Image. And then

it should be here, 63.png. And there it

is. So you might have to fiddle with the

size a bit. So let's try 30 by 45.

That looks better.

So you can move them around. Later I'm

going to draw more zombies so they don't

all look the same. You could have some

bigger ones, but maybe he can be like

the leader, the leader of the zombies.

So just space them out evenly,

and then I should

have given them a shadow. Damn it.

Shadow would have been pretty cool. But

anyway, let's just press, press run, see

how it looks.

Start. Oh, interesting.

Look at them, and you shoot them, and then

they die, and then they reappear at the

top. It's pretty cool, right? What I want

to do next is do like a walking animation

so they're not like sliding. Not sure how

to do that yet. I have to learn.

So it's actually running pretty well

because last night I had this weird

problem where I'd shoot them, they'd

reappear, and then they'd all just stop

moving. It's like they've just given up.

I can't be bothered trying to eat people's

brains, I'll just stand here. And it just

happened randomly. And I think that the

reason was because I had all this code

that wasn't really doing anything and it

was messing things up. So I deleted all

that excess code that wasn't really doing

anything, and it's working. See,

also, I don't really think that this kind

of design for the zombie fits in the game.

I need more of like a pixely, blocky type

of design. At the moment it looks a bit,

I don't know, too cartoony.

I want more of like a blocky feel, like

this tank is kind of blocky,

so I need to make like a blocky zombie.

Anyway, looks better than those aliens I

had before, I think.

Also, what would be cool is if when they

die they don't disappear, they stay on the

screen, stop moving, and then turn into

like a pool of blood or something.

I'm not sure how to do that. So it's quite

easy at the moment, so maybe I'll increase

the speed. And one shot

is just plowing right through them, just

killing them all. So it's a bit too easy.

I might have to change the bullet so the

bullet can only kill one at a time. Right

now it's a bit overpowered.

Also, when I press restart, it goes back

to the main menu. Then I press start and

the gun, it kind of bugs out. It just

stops. I'm not sure why. I have to restart

the whole simulator and then it works

properly like before.

So yeah, that's my game so far. It's

working pretty well. Still needs lots of

work, like I need to do the high score, I

need a scoring system so you get points

every time you kill one, and I want it to

be game over if if a certain

amount of zombies get past the tank. So

maybe 5 zombies get past and then it's

game over. So it's kind of like a tower

defense game, except you're moving the

tower. And it's kind of like Space

Invaders. I don't know, I have to— it's

still in development, still in its early

stages. Anyway, just wanted to show you my

zombie. That's how you—

and these are all image views. Like, you

go down here, type image view, and you can

drag this onto the screen. And then you

can choose an image that you have saved on

your computer, and it just appears like

this. Like, this is also an image, the

start button. Tanks are also an image.

These shoot buttons are almost also

images. So yeah,

I'll see you— see you next time.

See you next time,
