Shyguy’s Cave of Death

Shyguy’s Cave of Death is a game I made written in Java using the Slick 2D Java OpenGL library. It is inspired by the popular flash game Copter. You fly the Shyguy up and down the screen through the maze collecting various coins and avoiding the deadly mines.

This game is so fun… the source is not open huh ?

Left by krajsnick on June 29th, 2007

Thanks, yeah unfortunately it’s not open source. But I don’t think you would want to take a look at the code; it’s really not very pretty. :)

Left by alex on June 30th, 2007

And everyone would likely just scan the code for vulnerabilities.

H.B.

Left by Hugo.B on July 7th, 2007

Well I should hope not everyone would do that but certain people might, yes. But that is not what I’m worried about. It wouldn’t take someone who was keen enough very much effort to decompile the game as it is written in Java and I haven’t made any effort to protect the code. Even so, I’m not sure what kind of vulnerabilities someone might hope to find in the code. If you want to try to submit a fake score then go ahead. Looking at the code won’t help you much there. :D

Left by alex on July 12th, 2007

Good work. It’s really funny game!

It is posible to get from you some parts of code? I think about blood and smoke’s effects. Decompiled code might not compile.

Yes i’m the second now ^_^ Take care Lemaster, here i come!!!

(Is my english correct ? :-P )

Left by Shyguy on December 23rd, 2007

Hello ! Nice to talk with you! Hey I just have a question… my records was older than ” 2 days ago ” -_- No worry, but i think the game don’t work correctly with the records, maybe cause my computer is very strange ^_^

Just, I want to know whats the empty scores mean… you know the scores are marqued with the day of the highscores, but some records haven’t got date… Why ? Thanks a lot for your game :-) I love it!

Left by Shyguy on January 4th, 2008

Hello Shyguy,

The highscores that don’t have a date were recorded before I had implemented the recording of the date. Similarly with the level reached. The time will just show the last time that you submitted your score, that doesn’t necessarily mean that’s when you first achieved that score.

Left by alex on January 12th, 2008

Ok Hey, i can’t play SCOTD anymore… shall i uninstall the software and install it one more time ? Seems like you beat us Dex… Wow Oo congratulations ! I reeaaaly need to beat you ^_-

Left by Shyguy on January 18th, 2008

Sorry for the current brokenness of the game. I’m endeavouring to fix it.

Left by alex on January 21st, 2008

Sorry about the temporary loss of Shyguy service. Normal service has now resumed and we’d like to apologise for any inconvenience caused. Thank you…

Left by alex on January 27th, 2008

i got just over 20000 at lvl 8 the other day!!!! yeye

Left by Nintendo luver on February 14th, 2008

i would have posted the score but my computer is f***ed up bad :P

Left by Nintendo luver on February 14th, 2008

That’s impressive, Nintendo luver, considering that there is no level 8 :p

Left by alex on February 14th, 2008

a friend of mine made his own one of this the same thing but it had 100 levels that’s why it was so screwy on my computer i deleted it off though as after i saw this i thought that his was the Exact same sorry for the confusing post

Left by Nintendo luver on February 19th, 2008
