Yay for usable negative fuel. :-D

wulfdesign 2013-08-26 05:17

think the fuel gauge just must have been stuck...! ;)

hmmm... Stencyl site (and Arcade) seems to be down.. trying to get it to host from my dropbox account as well...

wulfdesign 2013-08-26 05:22

ok, must have been just an site update... working now.

Cool, I always enjoy these thrust-style games.

greysphere 2013-08-26 06:22

Heh, the soft failure was actually pretty nice for my first time. Then replayed and did it 'legit'!

Though you ran out of time and didn't get to add a lot of the stuff, I liked the concept and some of the bugs were entertaining!

krides 2013-08-26 22:54

Oh man, I'm bad at this. Nice idea though :-)

megamasterx 2013-08-26 22:57

Given the timeframe, not bad!

ahm99 2013-08-26 23:00

If I were you, I would quit game development and start working on a jet engine that works without fuel XD. Nice concept though. Next time you'll do better :)

kristof 2013-08-26 23:01

Although a lot of the game is still missing, one can definitely see where this is going. Nice graphical stile. I especially like that you can see the thrusters burning ;)

Nice game mechanic going on. I can see this becoming a great game!

unept 2013-08-27 03:14

Fun. I got nervous when I realized I had 20 seconds left and I wasn't even close. Well don!

photon 2013-08-27 04:05

Well, its a nice start. Good idea... just a bit of a skeleton, obviously. Not to mention the humorous bugs. The solar flare will be here in -15 seconds? Well, keep at it!

Nice concept. When fully polished, would definitely become a neat game.
I missed some damage or an instant kill, when the rocket hits the ground and not in landing position.

Sad face, made it into the deepest part of the cave first try, with fuel and time to spare, alas no win condition.
Great game, first spaceship I've controlled that handles like a glacier.

tipyx 2013-08-27 13:19

Negative fuel, ah ah ah ^^

flarb 2013-08-27 18:36

Same title as mine, great minds think alike! :)

tombsar 2013-08-27 21:06

Well done on achieving what you did; I look forward to seeing if you make it into a more complete game. I liked the art style, and the rocket physics.

kramin42 2013-08-28 07:03

I managed to do it legit, I think the difficulty should be about right when the timers run out and crashing is implemented. Funny that you chose the same name for your game as I did for mine!

zillix 2013-08-29 07:15

nicely done! I'd love to see it with more features. I was amused that I could navigate the whole thing using my reverse thrusters, which used no fuel!

jacob123 2013-09-03 11:46

Would've been a nice game if both timers didn't go into the negative. We can always pretend though!

connors 2013-09-04 06:16

The pages seem to be down at the moment. I might try again later. ;)

mamoniemm 2013-09-04 10:02

Little hard to control. But i though i will get exploded when i hit the walls !

vikingpotato 2013-09-04 21:13

The game looked and played well.. Some more interesting levels would be nice

manuq 2013-09-11 22:16

In only 8 hours?! Nice!

crowbeak 2013-09-12 11:41

Not bad for a first time. Not bad at all. Keep it up.

LpSamuelm 2013-09-15 17:04

The time is going negative, my thrust is going negative, I can fly through some walls and nothing is happening. I think a few bugs might need fixing.
