I liked the style and the hinted at story (could use a bit of sad, low music too), shame it's so short (or else I'm missing something), I'd play more.
2 small quibbles: the 'hotspot' for larger objects always seem to be to the left rather than run the length or centered and the perspective of the bathroom sink is inconsistant with the rest of the house.
Heya :) Thanks for playing :D I know music would have set the tone even more, but I'm not much of a musician... yet :p
I know it's pretty short, there were plans to be able to go downstairs, and go outside to a playground, but most of this was made in the last 12 hours, so yeah :')
And I know of the 'hotspot' issue you mentioned... There was some bug that caused Lucy to look at the wrong stuff so I made everything one tile wide. That still didn't fix it, I see :p
Just the simplicity of it is pretty nice! :)
The animations for Lucy could be a little more... animated. Instead of just her feet moving and that sort of stuff.
Oh and it works fine on my computer(Mac), just to let you know!
Nice graphics and it works on Linux too ;)
Love the message at the last door.
Nicely done, but a shame it's so short. As has already been mentioned it could definitely use some sadish music in the background.
Well, there wasn't much gameplay except of looking at objects and moving, but the theme and graphics are really good.
Could have used some short looping music ^^
If there was something to do in this game other than look at objects, I lost! I do like the graphics and bleakness though. :)
I was trying to read into your source code. How do you edit those tmx files? Don't say by hand :)
Hi philon!
The .tmx files are just map files, created by Tiled, a handy tile map editor. Slick2D (the library I used) has a nice interpreter for those maps. Check out http://www.mapeditor.org/ :)
