My very first LD. It's not perfect, but I'm super effing proud!
Well done for finishing! :D I remember my first and it is a great feeling of accomplishment. Great work! and don't be too hard on yourself, it looks great.
Congrats on completing your first LD :) I thought the controls handled well, and I got a laugh from a couple of moments. Nice job.
One negative note, I really dislike respawning enemies. I died because of them. Q_Q
I actually have a 360 controller and was able to play using it! The graphics are cute and the idea of playing delivery person is clever. Who knows what those planets are going to do with the poor pets though.
Applause sfx were quite satisfying.
A controller game, great :)
The grabbing mechanic is nice!
Has anyone made it to the boss fight?
Well..Can't really play it since i don't have a controller.. Why you did not make a keyboard-game? :|
Dont have a controller - I included it in part 7 of my Ludum Dare 30 compilation video series :) http://youtu.be/8xjQ7S7Vv10
Good thing I have a whole bunch of controllers, and in this bunch also xbox controller as well. But how many users have keyboard on theirs desktops and laptops - I'd gestimate around 100%. Controller support for PC should be complimentary, not mandatory.
Cool game othervice - nice grabbing mechanic, funny pictures. Congratulations. First LD game is a nice experience for you. Keep up good job.
would love to play but i dont have an xbox controller, just a keyboard :(
Had great fun playing this. The graphics were nice and clear and I liked the pop pop sound of the gun :D
That was great fun! It was a bit weird at the end when I seemed to be controlling 10ish ships all bunched together. Is that number of ships dependent on how many planets you satisfied?
Congrats on your first LD. Keep it up and see you on the next one!
Great work. Did you record the firing sound effect yourself? I imagine you'll want to include more support if you continue to work on this.
Thanks for playing, everyone! I'll get a post-compo build up soon with keyboard support so you can at least play it if you're interested.
@darkshadow: Yes, the number of ships at the end will depend on the number of planets you satisfied.
@Nooner Bear: Yeah, the sound effects were all me. Mostly just making stupid sounds with my mouth.
Post-compo keyboard version is available!
Love the Keyboard version! I included it in part 17 of my Ludum Dare 30 Compilation video series, if you’d like to check it out :) http://youtu.be/02vIiZyi3-c
The constant popping of projectiles was annoying. Maybe the mouse control would work better if you would use some other button than the right one on the mouse, because it opened up the context menu.
However its a nice little game. I like the hand drawn style of it.
Great mechanic. The controls (mainly the way the ship moves) and the identification of the supply icons are not easy to master. But the idea of building your fleet for the boss fight is really fun.
Everything but the graphics are awesome about the game. I'm glad I have a controller, it was great fun!
