Are you meant to be able to rotate/look around with the mouse?

2013-08-25 21:39

Um, is it on purpose that you can't look round?

tinykidtoo 2013-08-25 23:36

I can't look around, but it is a fun game

Use the middle mouse button to toggle mouse lock which allows you to turn. There are buttons on the screen that you can press so the turning needs to be turned off when the cursor isn't locked to the screen.

Nice idea!

Mouse-locking is a bit off. People usually don't figure out it's "keep mouse-wheel pressed" :P

I'd change it so you can click on the screen for it to lock but I don't think I'm allowed to change anything during the voting time.

I also got irritated by the mouse look thing. I can activate speed and shield by pressing 1 and 2 on the keyboard. Is there really a need to unlock the mouse?

Besides that, cool game. More levels would be nice. :)

I liked, but...Where is the exit?

Cute maze game idea. It is a lot more fun than all the "Do X in 10 seconds" games. Still, I am glad I read the comments before playing the game to find out about the mouse lock...

intripoon - Excuse me, but what is this shield you speak of? Besides that, the Restart skill can only be activated by pressing the button. I couldn't decide what key Restart should be set to since Revive was set to R.

juaxix - At the end of the linear path ;)

Beautiful graphics, but I couldn't work out how to find the middle mouse button on my mac :(

justi 2013-08-27 15:33

Nice graphic effects. One note: the player must turn to face the direction of movement automatically.

Will Edwards - Yes I realized yesterday that not every machine has a middle mouse button so it would literally be impossible, sorry about that. I'd fix it if it wasn't against the rules to do so.

Really pretty graphics and I like the concept a lot, nice work!

luzfish_4 2013-08-29 01:06

Couldn't play it, even on "Fastest" the graphics are too much for my GPU.

Cool game! Nice use of the theme. If you just keep on moving turrets won't be able to shoot you most of the time so powers aren't necessary to make ut to the end.

I took me a little while to figure out to start moving my head arround (needed to press middle mouse button). Solid graphics. Nice to see full material setups with specular/normal maps. Gameplay wise it was a little slow, but interesting idea.

good game with a good idea =)
(but maybe some power ups could help ^^)

Well Done ! I Like idea and style. Have some problem with camera turning. but very good at all. Wish some background music.
