Proto:Bad Piggies: Create Your Own Angry Birds Levels! (Adobe Flash)

This page details one or more prototype versions of Bad Piggies: Create Your Own Angry Birds Levels! (Adobe Flash).

An earlier build dated March 24, 2011.

Differences

To do: Add screenshots for the revised level themes/templates.

General

• Unlike the May build, this build contains no online functionality and is fully playable without modifications.
• The birds and pigs use their designs from early versions of Angry Birds. By the May build, they were replaced with the updated sprites seen in Angry Birds Chrome.
• The physics and camera have not yet been fine-tuned to match the mainline Angry Birds games.
• Different resolutions for menus and gameplay are used.
• Many of the level themes use earlier designs.
• The level templates appear to be fully finished levels. They were vastly simplified by the May build, probably so players are not offered completed levels from the get-go.

Loading Screen

March 24	May 18

The loading screen features an animation of pigs doing constuction work on the loading bar, rather than the lone bobbing pig seen in the May build. It also lacks progress captions.

Title Screen

March 24	May 18

The title screen background is a simple blue gradient. This was changed to the Mighty Hoax background in the May build.

Main Menu

March 24	May 18

The main menu is completely different. By the May build, it was replaced with a different screen that would've also housed the user's saved levels.

Level Editor

March 24	May 18

The level editor UI has a vastly different appearance than in the May build, with a unique color scheme and conveyor belt design for the object select. There are also no mentions of the game's would-be currency.

Debugging Features

To do: There are key checkers in "com.AngryBirds.LevelPlayer:LevelMain" that are not having debug flag checks but execute things that make sense for debug, do they really classify as debug functions? There's a log display function you can use with F1, F2, F3 and F4 in "com.rovio.factory:Log".

The debug flag is enabled by default in all builds. A lot of features aren't in the other webgames, and the May build added a few more functions.
