i made this game with four other people for a 2d game programming class in school. we definitely lucked out by having all original art and music. for almost all of us, this was our first project in direct x, so if you have any suggestions, find any bugs, have any feedback in general, or if it plain doesnt run, please leave your comments, it'd be greatly appreciated. without further ado http://www.rit.edu/~boa8488/games/derelict.html or for those who want to go straight to the download http://www.cs.rit.edu/~boa8488/derelict_release.zip (25 megs)

I tried it its good for a side scrolling space like game, I think it might move a little bit to fast cuz I had a hard time with just the first level. That also might be because my graphics card is really fast though, either way good job. It did lag up my comp a little bit when I closed it though. Dunno about that :D
Crashed on startup. I've taken the liberty of highlighting the problem area for you:

004F7CD0  mov         dword ptr [ebp-0E8h],eax 004F7CD6  mov         esi,esp 004F7CD8  push        0    004F7CDA  push        0    004F7CDC  push        0FF000000h 004F7CE1  push        1    004F7CE3  push        0    004F7CE5  push        0    004F7CE7  mov         ecx,dword ptr [ebp-0E8h] 004F7CED  push        ecx  004F7CEE  mov         edx,dword ptr [ebp-0E8h] 004F7CF4  mov         eax,dword ptr [edx] <-Right here is the problem 004F7CF6  call        dword ptr [eax+0ACh] 004F7CFC  cmp         esi,esp 004F7CFE  call        004C71C3 004F7D03  mov         ecx,dword ptr [ebp-8] 004F7D06  add         ecx,1Ch 004F7D09  call        004C8D48 004F7D0E  mov         eax,dword ptr [eax] 004F7D10  mov         dword ptr [ebp-0E8h],eax 004F7D16  mov         ecx,dword ptr [ebp-0E8h] 004F7D1C  mov         edx,dword ptr [ecx] 004F7D1E  mov         esi,esp 004F7D20  mov         eax,dword ptr [ebp-0E8h] 


hahahahaha.....okay I'm just kidding. It was an access violation of some sorts. I got the error running it in windowed and in fullscreen...

EDIT: some stupid grammar

Good luck on your first project and all:

Just letting you know that the name is already copyrighted. I know you have no intention of doing anything illegal since its a school project and not something you are trying to sell. In the future, make sure you look up what other people have named things... and you still may want to consider changing it. Here's the site that owns the Derelict brand.
