Kind Words on RedLine

AJAX Magazine (of phpmagazine.net) was kind enough to have a look at our RedLine Javascript release and had this to say –

Vertigo-projects have a new and amazing racing game powered by jQuery and using the GameQuery plugin. The game itself is about one thousand lines of code, but you will need some practice to not shift too early or to avoid crashing. It’s interesting to see the level of applications that we can build today using modern javascript libraries such as jQuery. The design is pretty attractive to run a level or two, have a look and enjoy the race http://www.vertigo-project.com/projects/redline-game.

RedLine + Facebook

The RedLine Racing Game is busy making a transition to being on Facebook as well! We’ve always wanted to develop something big for facebook (not this) but never got stuck into the API; so we’ll be working on our next project soon after this!

We will keep you posted once it goes live (this week), in the meantime you can enjoy it here on the site!

RedLine Game Out!

We have at long last released beta 1 of the RedLine jQuery racing game. Making use of gameQuery, jQuery and a lot of custom code and images its a side scrolling race game made without any use of flash at all!

Please feel free to play it, leave suggestions, report bugs and show us your top scores!

Please note, the game was designed using Firefox and runs best with the fastest javascript engine you have available. Firefox 3.1 offers the best performance we have seen.

Play the RedLine Racing Game

RedLine Public Demo 1

We’ve been toiling away with sound fixes for gameQuery, problems with slow javascript implementations and more, but are getting close to releasing the first public demo for one of the racing games in RedLine. Its a side scrolling racer, where you have to dodge enemies, collect petrol and miss the dirts/hit the speedups to get a high score – arcade classic style.

There’s still much to be done, but we will be posting it and the source code here on Vertigo Project once its ready!

jQuery Racing Game?

Work has begun on playing around with JavaScript to write some racing games for Red Line – and Darryl has posted a code test on his blog where you can see some of the things that can be done with jQuery.

Check it out below by clicking in the image and then pressing the up arrow, or go straight to his site.
