Viewers,

RippaZ Inc. has been planning since last year to start our very own game. It is EXTREMELY simple, and most experts will not spend more than an hour on it.

The game consists of 3 characters and 3 guns. It's extremely simple. I would like the user to be able to choose the character and the gun. There should be a pistol, shotgun, and rocket launcher. Each should have different effects on the character that they choose. All the user has to do is point and shoot to hit the character. With the pistol, 10 hits should allowed before the character blows up. With the shot gun, 5, and with the rocket launcher 2. After the character blows up IN AN EXPLOSION, the user should be able to go back to the menu and choose other characters and weapons.

Please create the look of the guns yourselves. However, leave the 3 characters as circles and rectangles. Include information on how to replace these shapes with what ever I wish to draw in for a character.

This game is for a business site to draw in users, not for personal game usage.

RippaZ Inc. has two registered versions of Macromedia Flash MX 2004 Pro. We will give one away to the programmer who creates the best game. They will also recieve 900 MB on a secure RippaZ Inc. server. In addition, the winner will recieve a banner on the RippaZ Inc. mainpage that points to the site of their choice. It will stay there for 1 full year! Finally, they will also recieve a real award from RippaZ Inc.'s CEO, which entitles them to 10 free legal mp3 downloads off of RippaZ Inc.'s website.

Please send all questions, inquiries, info requests, submitions, etc. to webmaster@rippazinc.tk (me) or to my PERSONAL account, s4p4n@yahoo.com

Thank you very much.

I wanna meet the guy who can do all you want in an hour!

There's always a better way. The fun is trying to find it!
 
Isn't there enough violence in this world and that we should still be creating such games? Is the word "game" really appropriate?
 
I find it hard to believe that this is possible to do in an hour, most people could barely manage to draw the things they would need for the game on the canvas in that time, let alone program it!
 
One hour!? :-D

Why would you need a Pro if it is so EXTREMELY simple? Perhaps you should have a go at it yourself.

All you said here is that you want something (significantly more complicated than you suggest) and you don't want to pay for it.

 
Pixl8r hit it on the head! I see this kind of thing so many times and frankly, it's an insult to the intelligence and experience of those who make their living writing programs, web sites, and games. The thing that people don't realize is that the web is a giant advertising medium and the budget the prepare for their web sites, and content, should be the same as what they would spend for newspaper, magazine, and television advertising.

All you said here is that you want something (significantly more complicated than you suggest) and you don't want to pay for it.

I read it a little differently - they want something fantastically complicated, they don't have a clue about what it takes to do it, and the DON'T HAVE THE MONEY to pay for it!

There's always a better way. The fun is trying to find it!
 

I dont get the part about giving away Flash MX 2004 Pro. If you are looking for someone to design this no brainer game for you in Flash, wouldn't you just assume we already own a copy of Flash, and that it might not be a very good value to us to get another one? Just a thought.

Not only will they give you something you probably don't need, but they're going to give you a used copy! How do you register it without installing it? These guys are a joke!
