Afro-Ninja

Territory War Online around the corner, but...

Posted by Afro-Ninja Mar. 6, 2008 @ 8:39 PM EST

Seeing as how I made previous comments about getting this game to beta stages by late february/early march, I thought I should make an update on the situation.

First off, the game itself virtually done. There are a few missing assets, but nothing major. The problem? Implementing the stats system, and making it hack-proof.

I want people that play Territory WAR online to feel a sense of accomplishment with their records. And when someone comes along with a hacked profile, or is able to cheat the game, that takes a lot of fun out of it. The only problem is that with code execution being on the client side, it's virtually impossible to make the game 'hack-proof.' That being said, hacking this game should prove to be damn hard. People comment that stick arena is easily hacked, but that's because when stick arena was released, it had no security implementations. Territory WAR has several. I'm not going to describe any of them though- the more I explain, the more a hacker has to work with. Script kiddies need not apply. I ALMOST hope that someone hacks this game, because the hours they would have to spend sifting through obfuscated source code and encryption strings would be a testament to their pathetic nature.

Also, Xgen (who I am working with for the online aspect) is still busy working on their wiiware version of Defend Your Castle. Which looks amazing, by the way.

I still hope to have something significant released this month in the Territory WAR universe. But for now, I'll have to leave you with another screenshot from one of pox's stages. By the way, don't be surprised if you see a cameo level from a certain blockheaded flash artist too. (HAHA GET IT?!!? I sure don't)

Can't wait for it man.

Mar. 6, 2008 | 9:12 PM XxDaRkReDxX says:

awsome look like itll be fun cant wait =D

19th comment

Mar. 6, 2008 | 9:19 PM Afro-Ninja responds:

not quite

Mar. 6, 2008 | 9:19 PM JonBro says:

I think this is the fourth comment.

Hahaha oh man, I can't wait for Territory War Online. I'm sure you'll do a great job making it super hard to hack =)

Mar. 6, 2008 | 9:22 PM Wurmy1029 says:

What you COULD do is get someone who can hack. Have them, on purpose and not on through the internet hack your game. He/she can tell you how he/she did it so you can try and prevent that from happening. And maybe if you do this enough it will be a pretty hard to hack game.. So I guess you should hire a hacker per say :p

Mar. 6, 2008 | 9:33 PM voidshatter says:

shiiiiiiiiny......

Mar. 6, 2008 | 9:35 PM flashmac says:

The graphics are soooooooo good! Did you draw them?

Mar. 6, 2008 | 9:40 PM Afro-Ninja responds:

nope, poxpower is handling most of the art

Mar. 6, 2008 | 9:46 PM Skullkid700 says:

Sweet!
It's lookin' good!!!
This is totally why I have an Afro-Ninja sticker on my wallet. :D

BTW, I was wondering... You are close to getting to the next rank. But the Ninja Stars fit you...so do you NOT level up on purpose?

Mar. 6, 2008 | 9:51 PM Afro-Ninja responds:

I stopped depositing for a while to keep the ninja stars, but I decided I eventually want GOLD ninja stars (level 50)

Mar. 6, 2008 | 9:55 PM Skullkid700 says:

Haha, nice.
Well, good luck with that. Should only take you...what...a year or two?

Mar. 6, 2008 | 10:27 PM Coolio-Niato says:

That's seriously going to stay in 1st spot on NG for 2 months if not more. It's the best multiplayer flash game I've seen, and all I've seen are screenshots.

Just amazing. Would love to beta test it, but you probably have too many of those people already :P.

Anyway. wish you best of luck. Hackers SUCK >=(

Mar. 6, 2008 | 10:50 PM Afro-Ninja responds:

heh, thanks :)
only problem is that the demo version will be the one released on NG first. You'll be able to play online, but only in quickplay matches (no username or stats), so that might hurt its rankings in the portal.

Having a full version here will depend on a combination of what I, Xgen, and Newgrounds decides will work best

as far as beta testers.. well.. let's just say you can never have enough testers :)

Mar. 6, 2008 | 10:42 PM AVSciuto says:

I'd love to beta test as well Afro-Ninja, the last Territory War was awesome, but this looks intense. The graphics are crazy and the gameplay is going to be even better than the last one.

Keep up the awesome work and good luck keeping it 'hack-proof;.

Mar. 6, 2008 | 11:50 PM HeroFredy says:

All I know is that Territory War is one of the best games I've ever played, but I'd like to be a beta tester, although the Chances that I'll become one is slim. But please, could you make room for me? If not, I'll understand. Just please make room OK?

P.S. If you want, I can beta test any other projects if you want. On weekends, I have WAY TOO MUCH TIME on my hands.

Mar. 7, 2008 | 12:39 AM WolfBlitz2 says:

the best thing to do is get a former hacker to make it hack proof

Mar. 7, 2008 | 12:43 AM WolfBlitz2 says:

it is pretty much the same as viruses they keep on making new ones all the time
so virus protectors have to update all the time
this bit her is unrelated
tyhough there is some rumour that people who make virus protectors build viruses to make people buy them

Mar. 7, 2008 | 2:13 AM q13qew says:

l THink the game will be god because all the maps will be changet to better queiltu and the sticks will be better and the weopans waithing for them dude

Mar. 7, 2008 | 2:57 AM Hank514 says:

nice graphics

and hackers are a problem in lots of games but flash game si find pathetic its a stinking flash there simple there "time killers" if you have to ahck a flash to win or look good then maybe you should play a different one or you got way to mcuh time on your hands

Mar. 7, 2008 | 2:59 AM Hank514 says:

also this for wolfbitz

there are actually some security devices that do do that-privacy protector- spam virus we couldnt do anything without a pop up every 2 seconds and our background was changed all ads for privacy protector and many others do alot of things liek this too

Mar. 7, 2008 | 5:52 AM Cyberdevil says:

Looks pretty amazing so far!

Mar. 7, 2008 | 8:44 AM Luis says:

puuuurrrrdy.

stop making these fp posts unless its done and ready. you are such a cocktease... more so than tom and his redesign project

Mar. 7, 2008 | 3:26 PM Afro-Ninja responds:

You be quiet

Mar. 7, 2008 | 10:10 AM swordkill says:

Woah, looks pretty damn nice!

Really looking forward to it, mate. :D

Mar. 7, 2008 | 1:21 PM PolyBlaster says:

OMG how that hell do you make such beautiful graphics :O

Mar. 7, 2008 | 1:54 PM Hellbuster says:

a blockheaded artist....my final answer is The Swain's Blockhead?

Mar. 7, 2008 | 3:25 PM Afro-Ninja responds:

other way around dear

Mar. 7, 2008 | 4:52 PM Truth says:

first Brawl, now territory war

Mar. 7, 2008 | 7:14 PM Afro-Ninja responds:

here's the problem... can I get Territory WAR finished before brawl distracts me too much?

Mar. 7, 2008 | 7:24 PM JoxskornerStudios01 says:

I cant wait until its done!

Mar. 7, 2008 | 9:52 PM MindChamber says:

lookin awesome, sorry about the hats I keep forgetting to send it to ya..

I still think the stick figures is its only downside,I mean even stylized silhouetted character would look better, but thats a personal opinion.

Good luck getting it out.

Mar. 7, 2008 | 10:00 PM XxdeathpriestxX says:

can't wait for may 12th and the screen shot looks amazing!

Mar. 7, 2008 | 10:02 PM XxdeathpriestxX says:

starting tom, 1 MORE DAY TILL BRAWL!!! everybody do a snow dance so they'll cancel school and we get more time to BRAWL!

Mar. 8, 2008 | 7:46 AM dogpup4 says:

looks so awesome! do you know when its coming out or at least the demo? im dying to play it and i just cant wait any longer without knowing when its coming out!
sorry if im one of them annoying guys btw...
oh and can i be a beta tester if youve got space?

Mar. 8, 2008 | 2:03 PM Afro-Ninja responds:

"I still hope to have something significant released this month in the Territory WAR universe"

can't make any promises though

Mar. 8, 2008 | 9:59 AM PancakeExplosion says:

Other way around, eh? I'll have to guess Blockhead's The Swain.

Also, I'd be happy to beta test on the weekends, unless I'm renting a game or pretending to do something important.

Mar. 8, 2008 | 12:59 PM Splurda says:

wooo :D i can't wait to play it :D:D

Mar. 9, 2008 | 4:42 AM dogpup4 says:

Mar. 16, 2008 | 2:08 AM Afro-Ninja responds:

it's just that stage. but it'll be easier when the game is in motion anyway

Mar. 16, 2008 | 4:42 PM zooominsh says:

Theese terotory wars what is in the NG multiplayer games, is very boring, but not bad, but for flash game it`s very good , very !

Mar. 16, 2008 | 11:55 PM SonicFoxStrk says:

i added you to brawl but i need to get my code first k?

Mar. 19, 2008 | 2:28 PM picos44 says:

areyou the real person who made afro nynja?

Mar. 19, 2008 | 3:52 PM Afro-Ninja responds:

I have no idea what 'afro nynja' is.. are you referring to that video of the guy with the nunchucks? no, I had nothing to do with that -_-

Mar. 19, 2008 | 5:47 PM SonicFoxStrk says:

Mar. 22, 2008 | 3:35 PM supertoria12 says:

I can't wait! It looks awesome! You've GOT to be my all time favorite NG mod/flash artist!

Mar. 23, 2008 | 9:08 PM JimmySaint says:

aww, sweet art! I cant wait to play that!
I can imagine a hacker wasting hours, just trying to make the game a bit easier. Have you seen the "Champion Archer" hacker videos on Youtube?

Mar. 24, 2008 | 10:47 AM sparky216 says:

Sweeeet backgrounds dude..... I love your games, MAINLY Territory WAR!!!

Mar. 24, 2008 | 10:56 AM sparky216 says:

And BTW... Can I beta Test Territory WAR Online?

Mar. 24, 2008 | 2:48 PM sparky216 says:

I love your Afro........

Mar. 24, 2008 | 7:34 PM pimp-named-slinkback says:

Comment #20?

Anyway, I'm really looking forward to Territory War Online. I still love the original. Just please, at least release a beta version or an offline version this week. It would make my Spring Break.

Mar. 27, 2008 | 2:49 PM SevenSeize says:

I love all of the XGen games.

That's awesome you're working with them. Anything you guys manage to cook up is destined for greatness.

Anyway, keep up the good work on Territory WAR, and all the others involved too.

Mar. 27, 2008 | 8:21 PM zafimn says:

Ninjas weren't just limited to Shuriken, they also used Katana and Sai as well. You know, for a ninja, you aren't that knowledgeable when it comes to weapons.

Apr. 2, 2008 | 10:27 PM hereforrock says:

Holy shit man. How do you do all of that drawing and stuff in Flash? Did you seriously draw it all? Anyway, it looks like total fun. ;D

Apr. 3, 2008 | 4:09 AM Afro-Ninja responds:

pox did the art, in a combination of photoshop and flash

Apr. 2, 2008 | 10:29 PM hereforrock says:

Did you use other programs as well? Also, you probably have a pretty nice drawing tablet or whatever they are called. Never used one before(or seen one, for that matter).

Apr. 3, 2008 | 12:10 AM FrozenFire says:

I saw you on SouthPark. Great Job :D

Apr. 3, 2008 | 9:01 PM Khawner says:

How did you get into a south park episode?!?

Apr. 3, 2008 | 11:17 PM adamflecko says:

Apr. 4, 2008 | 10:38 PM poopmaster12 says:

This has nothing to do with territory war. In your hommagae i'm bringing this honor to ur attention... Afro-Ninja, you were featured on South park, the episode 'Canada Goes on Strike'. You were worth something like hundred thousand theoreticall dollars. I forget. Anyways, ur lucky to be featured on such a gr8 show. :)

Apr. 4, 2008 | 11:49 PM Afro-Ninja responds:

they're talking about a different afro ninja :)

Needs moar update

Apr. 18, 2008 | 2:54 AM risbolla says:

Great thing is that unlike stick arena, you chose who you are going to fight in territory war online, so should someone manage to hack the game, you don't have to play against them.

May. 16, 2008 | 3:18 PM Go10 says:

It looks awesome,but I've seen videos online of a BETA VERSION!!! Considering the fact that you made the game i thought you might be able to tell me were i could play the beta version. thnx!
