Hi there, it seems to load for a long time and nothing appears?
I like the look of this and there's also some nice ideas in there. Is there meant to any sound? (I saw note of FL Studio in journal)
eyehawk:
weird, to you see the LWJGL loading bar?
DustyStylus:
Nope didn't had time for any sounds :(
Cool shooter. Building your own shooter was fun. Some kind of an explanation for what the next block will do would've been a nice addon, I still don't know what that square piece does. :)
Great concept, would have be even better with sounds !
It was fun for a short time but the dificulty went up to slowly making earlier levels more of a grind.
I really liked it, very interesting idea!
Yay, I'm not the only one who made a shooter! Really nice game too - I like the friendly theme and the crisp pixel graphics.
Solid arena shooter, need some variation in the block properties. As now, all you will ever need is shooter blocks, as they will act as shield and guns. It would be more interesting if for example the normal block could take more hits. Then you have the defense/offense ratio to think about.
I like the retro graphics. Reminded me of the old Micro Machines games a bite. The upgrade & damage model is good too (actually losing bits of your ship when you're hit). I did seem to encounter a bug where my ship started constantly trying to move right.
hey thx all for your replies!
small trouble:
Honestly I didn't had time to balance the game :(
Brassawiking:
Originally I planned on making the block upgradable. My idea was that normal block level 2 can take two hits, level 3 three, etc.. But again not enough time to implement..
hgcummings:
I think I also so that bug
You just can't go wrong with a simple shooter, and the pixel gfx are rad!
Sound needed!! But good! :D
I really like the concept of this game! I think a bit more work could really make it shine.
Mainly what I didn't like was that the camera was really zoomed in, so that you could see only so many blocks at a time. If you zoomed out a bit you could add a lot more enemies and give the player a lot more freedom.
Awesome game, it really reminds me of my game :P Really liked it, really fits the theme
Nice concept :) It's a pity that there are no sounds and music :/
God job !
I shot a bunch of blocks and then I was all alone:( And all I had was just a square:(
