I like the main character, the whole thing is like characters from a toybox!

First time I play a Blender game. The graphics are amazing, but I couldn't catch any crystal

The characters are so cute! I think the game is a bit hard, maybe if I could control the direction of the main character with my mouse like an FPS, it could be easier to escape from the soldiers

heloheu 2012-12-18 02:09

Also, it ran without Blender installed here!

First time i've played a blender game too. Some times you can't get the crystals.

cool game and cool walking way!

I like the character and his walk style, pretty cool!

Nice job! Really love the graphics (good graphics are typical of an art centric engine like blender)

Cool game! But as some already said, sometimes you can't get the crystals.
Cool walking way! x2 hehehe

I liked the graphical theme a lot. It seems like with a lot more time, the movement could be made into a really fun physics-based mechanic.

Nice game, its always nice to see someone else using the bge:)

Sweet game but a bit hard. An when you are in the top view (space9 you can't move forward and press left. Forward and right works though. 2 crystals was my max :/

Wow! I thought that nobody would play it because it was made with Blender, thank you guys so much!
I'm glad to hear that you don't need to have Blender installed, but if you do, I think it is more guaranteed that will work.
I am aware of the collision problems, but sadly, there is nothing I can do. :(
What works for me is insist in the collision, it works after a while.

Good job. It works pretty well without having installed blender =)

Nice stuff. Keep it up!

Interesting game, the visual style makes me think of boardgames. For some reason I could only play by opening the .blend file in Blender. Windows insisted the .exe file was not a valid executable (go figure.)

I read your postmortem about using BGE and it was very informative too.

Sorry I can't rate, I don't have windows.

h-attila 2012-12-21 21:05

Cute graphics. I think the game is a bit too hard and it needs some sound effects or music.

frederickk 2012-12-21 21:47

@jmaasing Actually, there is a way to make it work. I use dual boot with windows and ubuntu and tested. I edited the post with the instruction to play it with it.

jmaasing 2012-12-22 10:14

Yeah, running from inside blender worked on Linux. Thanks for the instructions.

benjamin-soule 2012-12-27 23:58

It works here too without blender. The game is ok but I triggered the end sequence by bringing back just one crystal. I like the smooth move on view scroll, I think It could have been higher.

mrspeaker 2012-12-30 02:50

"If you is reading this, you started the game or died". Genius.

cyboot 2013-01-07 20:45

Nice and funny game. Love the graphics and the walking animation.
I am not sure if I did it right but after I got the first cristal and took it "home" I won.

Nice job!
