does not respond to input - space does not launch rocket
Windows 8.1
Java 1.7.0_40
Keys are not working
Windows 7, Java 1.7, keys not working too
Had to press space to start rocket before doing anything else or the rocket never started. Once underground, controls were ok.
I like the 'refuel' as you dig part. The lava patches came up quickly.
The score did not make much sense if you just burrow back and forth near the surface, you gain a ton of fuel and lots of points.
Linux - Ubuntu 13 - open jdk 7
No glitches here. . . good job on the game! :D
Unresponsive to keys, windows 7, java 1.7.0
No bugs that I could see, but there diddn't seem to be an end goal? Liked it otherwise, nice graphics and controls!
I got the bug that if you change direction of your rocket before launching it would not work, other than that, no bugs that i could notice! Good work.
does not respond to input too
Nice game without the bug described above. :)
Worked fine on archlinux.
Love the concept, collecting the fuel and gems was pretty satisfying too. The magma really forced you to slow down though, slowing the pace of the game.
Also, the input ignored bug occured to me the first time I ran it, seems to do with unfocusing the window, it ignores input after that.
The game doesn't do anything on OSX. It just sits there with the drill animation playing.
Sadly, I can't play either. I have Windows 7, 64-bit OS.
Pretty cool. You might want to limit the angle to somewhat downward because you can actually just go horizontally. Also maybe an invert option? lol I kept going the opposite direction.
On windows 7, and java 1.7.0_03 it stops responding to input keys after clicking on game screen. Doesn't matter when I clicced - just after starting, while digging - it always blocks input. Only restart helps.
Some thoughts:
- Score should grow only when you go deeper underground.
- Short tutorial would be great. At first I didn't know what should I hit to regain fuel.
- More tiles! Ex. water that slows down ;)
And although I don't like this kind of games, I think your idea have potential as mobile.
A nice little game, which could be even better with some audio. I understand that the lack of time can be quite limiting though. Good job!
It's a shame about the input bug, but at least you know about it and flagged it up.
Fun little game. You seem to have given some thought to the general progression, a consideration not usually given to LD entries. You start out with a lot of fuel lying around so you can really get into things quickly, then eventually lava starts to appear in small amounts, eventually ramping up.
Good job
This is a good start! The game looks good already!
