Super Early Testing: http://web.roblox.com/Headlight-Proving-Grounds-place?id=20633197

Flicker is a roblox game based entirely on dynamic lighting and darkness.

Players spawn inside a mysterious pitch black facility armed with only a headlamp and a dull dagger.

Salvaging parts from inside the building, they must navigate their way to freedom without ever letting their headlamp die.

Headlamps run off battery power, and as such players must collect batteries from through out the building in order to survive. As their headlamp loose power, they begin to flicker.

Between every flicker, there is a chance a monster will be spawned. Monsters quickly disappear upon contact with light. Once the headlamp looses enough power and dies, monsters will quickly attack and kill the player, clearing their inventory and starting them over.

Quite a brilliant game, might I say.

I hope to see a lot out of this, I'm quite pleased by the scripting, as my knowledge is limited in that pursuit.

I was just there, the light went out when I picked up an item, and it wouldn't come back on...

I've sort of matched your light coding, besides the energy bit, I can't code that off-hand yet lol

http://www.roblox.com/Coding-Centre-place?id=61608135

this was created from half an hour of learning how to code c:

how does yours work? I tried using the health bar as an 'energy' bar, so that the player mimics a robot, run out of energy; dead.

I kept trying to make it decrease humanoid health but it wouldn't work, and output said nothing :/

You need to add a lot more. Players will eventually become bored of constantly every few minutes looking for batteries. It sounds as if their task is to walk and grab batteries and constantly do this repeatedly. You need to add a lot more.

Suggestions:
- Material to develop different types of lights




That's all I got for now, I will inform you with more suggestions later.
