My windows machine can't play XNA games for some reason. Grumble grumble… Awesome screenshots though! :)

djlad97 2013-08-26 11:30

That's a shame, but thanks anyway :)

sam1373 2013-08-26 11:44

That was a very fun and challenging game, I liked it!

I didn't really catch the point in here, I managed to collect all the coins, but couldn't progress to the next level.

The controls weren't that sloppy, though, especially if you've just learned about doing the collision stuff. Keep working on it! :)

Couldn't get it to run, the installer fails. Could you generate a .zip file with the Relase executables?

kristinnes 2013-08-26 12:07

I couldnt get it to run either :( (Windows 8)

sam1373 2013-08-26 12:09

I ran it on Windows 8

I had a lot of fun with this!

fireblend 2013-08-26 12:25

The graphics could use some work, but the fun is there :) good job!

Great, there are little collision problems, and it's annoying to wait 5 seconds to play when you die. But a funny game. :)

The game is pretty nice. I liked the idea and the music. But It is too hard I think (I couldn't even pass the first level).
I also liked the possibility to kind of stick to the ceiling.
Please consider giving a download with only the .exe and the assets in a zip without installation (installing is pretty annoying).

djlad97 2013-08-26 12:54

Thanks for the feedback, guys. Regarding just giving the .exe with the assests, I put them in a zip file but for some reason the setup.exe and the other stuff still shows. I would appreciate it if anyone could help me :)

djlad97 2013-08-26 13:04

Never mind, I've got it working.

djlad97 2013-08-26 14:30

Also just noticed I spelled ludum dare wrong on the menu screen

timtipgames 2013-08-27 10:22

Really really hard :)

djlad97 2013-08-27 19:23

I enjoy making hard games, but at the same time hate people that make hard games/tracks. So technically - I hate myself :L

kbm0 2013-08-28 10:26

I dont know why, but this simple look is very appealing to me. Nice one! :-)

djlad97 2013-08-28 11:56

Thanks, kbm0 :) It's really awesome to see comments like this to say I've only been programming for a year now, and only C# Xna for several months :D

archaeometrician 2013-08-28 12:12

Smooth gameplay, simplistic but kinda entertaining. Great work :)

kragnir 2013-08-28 12:33

Like others have said the collision detection is not perfect. You can stick too the ceiling for a while and picking the right starting position is key to completing most levels.

I do believe you have put a lot of time into testing the levels considering how tight the timing in them are, looking forward to your future games if you continue with the same attention to details.

Funky music! Super-hard to start with but I got the hang of it after a while - rewards repeat playing. Nice one :-)

ellipticaldoor 2013-08-29 21:10

Don't working on my machine D:

ryebread761 2013-09-03 23:45

Really simple but a good concept. Could have used some more sound.

jprogman 2013-09-09 21:44

Good thing I was able to move during the 5 second delay so I can practice a bit before I run.

galman 2013-09-16 07:45

I like the idea and it is really fun! :D A bit too hard (I'm stuck at the first level :P ) and the music is too intense, other then that it's an awesome game!

jupiter_hadley 2013-09-16 14:56

I found this idea to be good, though the game is a bit glitchy and I could not pass level 1 :/ I featured this game in my LD27 compilation video series, if you'd like to check it out :) http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Tvnhwc_j5Mo

djlad97 2014-03-18 20:07

Not sure if anyone will see this, but: Did anyone download the source of this game before the link broke & still has it? I've just opened it up to improve some stuff & for some reason there is a game breaking bug it; I hadn't even touched it prior to open it so I am clueless to what happened to it. Anyway the source of the LD version might be able to help me out :)

djlad97 2014-03-18 20:22

never mind
