I asked myself - how it's possible? Why I must wait twenty seconds before playing? And now I understand :)
How many cubes you have used to create these maps?
It's a strange game, but it well done. THX ++

Nice dude! I like the voice clips, especially the tutorial. Gives it a very Half Life feel

thegamefather 2014-04-28 12:37

The most detailed tutorial I've ever seen lol. Nice game though more polished may be needed :)

ludonaut 2014-04-28 20:37

Very impressive. Cool voice acting, haha.

I loled at the tutorial :)
The aim was a bit off, and there was a lot of z-fighting in some walls, but nice work!

notruespaceman 2014-04-28 20:40

I liked the tutorial and the voice overs. :)

Fun little game, just the pauses when loading are a little... distracting... ! :) The rest is cool, though!

jacob-peltola 2014-04-28 20:43

Sweet game, loved the voxel-ness of it all

It's better to just run past the worms, the gun doesn't do much at all.

Very impressive game, especially the tutorial ;)

Cool game, I liked the voice overs. The loading screens were death though =(

saiato 2014-04-28 23:20

Very cute. The gun really is a problem, it does not work very well. Once I gave up on using it though, I had fun running through the mines.

Love the voice clips and the weird cuby graphics. Shooting is a bit cumbersome because the bullet object isnt directed towards the cursor properly, but perhaps that was intended.

Thanks to everyone who has left a comment! I am working on fixing some bugs for the next release, which should be up soon. Those bugs include the gun not shooting very accurately, the worms not doing very much damage and the loading times being very long.

lots of Z-fighting on walls in tutorial, voiceovers overlap, gun needs to be rendered in separate camera (so it won't stick into walls)
but good start so far.. keep it up

sugarbyte 2014-04-29 22:45

Very cool, I liked the tutorial a lot.

martinysa0311 2014-04-29 23:04

has potential, good game tutorial.

tuism 2014-04-29 23:14

I'm going to be honest because honesty is how you'll get better! We're always learning!

So, how long did it take to place all those cubes? I don't know, I like the LOOK of them, but the rest of the game needed a lot more attention. The cubes weren't worth the load time for the most part.

Is there even a reason to switch the torch off? If so, why make it an option?

There's zero feedback on if you hit the worm or not. That's a tough one to contend with. Also eventually I just ignored them. They don't do much damage anyway.

So bumping up the damage alone probably won't solve the problem cos it'll just either be too hard. The enemies need to do something a little bit more, either in movement, or in attacks (which are almost unavoidable, which takes away from the players' decisions space).

So that's my crit, it's not a bad start, really, but I do hope you learn and grow! :D

gwinnell 2014-04-29 23:16

Ahhh, overlapping voices! and it doesn't capture mouse input (OS X). :( That was a good tutorial, though the gun didn't seem very effective against the worms. Perhaps it should fire faster?

kbm0 2014-04-30 11:46

really crazy glitchy art-style. liked it! :)

mrexcessive 2014-04-30 15:31

Hi. I like the microcubed maps. The shooter aspects are tricky to play, mouselook gun works better when fullscreen, but still tricky.

oye-beto 2014-05-01 05:28

How old are you? I'm curious because I guess you recorded the tutorial hehe.

Anyway, good job with developing a game in less than 48 hours even though it's very raw. :)

icereci 2014-05-03 11:28

nice atmosphere an sound effects :)

foolmoron 2014-05-14 15:26

Great level design. The tutorial was really great too. Although you should try to capture the mouse in the web player, and disable the right-click menu.

I like the voice tuto but it's not playable.

snooze82 2014-05-19 09:32
