nice game!
I like the mechanics of the game. Found the control a bit "harsh", as I died many time just by getting *near* a pit. Overall a nice little game you have here !
i liked the concept, but found that the music was a bit jarring as it sounded more Latin than Egyptian.
The only thing i don't like about this game is the odd controls. i died many times going to a pit while i want to go left.
Other than that, great job!
This is the first game here that I played for so long.
Nice, but very hard. Single mistake and you're done.
Also, looks like I found a bug: I managed to find the key and the door, but the key disappeared from my inventory when I tried to open it.
And another thing: You can't use that shout sound if you didn't make it. It's against the rules.
I really like this one! Kept me playing a while.
@HolyBlackCat : It is a classic from sound fx : the wilhelm shout, totaly free and it was jut for the wink.
Controls were odd, especially since you insist on having us press A to start, I often lost immediately just because my fingers automatically went in the wrong keys. If you want it to be AZERTY proof, give the option to use the arrow keys next time, especially since you don't use the mouse.
Otherwise the game is simple, solid and fun.
I love the scream XD Nice game. Very nice on lighting.
P.D: Sorry. I've made op-out the ratings of my game by error :-( You can vote it now
Great work in such a short space of time. =) I feel this would work even better in a grid format, this would also solve harsh control issues mentioned by others.
This entry unfortunately suffers from the controls. More often than not, I found myself hunting for the proper keys, and after 2 fail-and-retries, the game wouldn't allow me to start it again. The concept is really good and mechanically its a solid entry. Well done!
Great game! I liked the idea of using torches to prevent rooms from being randomised, and the Egyptian aesthetic works really well with the concept of a shifting dungeon.
Cool game, loved the random room mechanic, really well made.
Nice game! But the torch aren't really useful, are they?
What you did in 48 hours is very impressive. the general mood of the game is very solid as the music perfectly fits the shadowy gameplay.
I thought the game was very hard at first, but once you understand you have to walk carefully, it's pretty easy.
It's an egyptian temple afterall, not a kindergarden !
The torches didn't seem too useful to me. Maybe they don't last long enough.
Cool game! I really like the concept, but controls was a bit wierd.. :p
Ahh, very neat mechanics. Physics were a bit too stiff for my liking - audio did not work on Safari 5.1.10 for some reason.
Nice graphics, cool innovation. Good job overall!
nice thought
Fun game! The controls could be improved though, I often ended falling in a pit when entering a new room
Cool.
"EDSF"? Seriously?
Instead of that, Nice Game!
Nice idea, I kept dying so dang quickly though.
I like the searching aspect, and the continual randomness. I wish motion wasn't maintained between doors, but otherwise pretty cool.
I like your game. The darkness effect is neat. The controls are a bit strange but I don't think its a big deal. I really don't like the scream. Its funny but I find that I don't want to hear it. It would be cool if it just went all dark or something :) The music is nice and soothing for Egyptian labyrinth exploration.
Nice theme and graphics! But I do not like the controls very much
Controls were a bit funky at the start, but after that game became great. Great idea!
the shout when you pass a door too quickly his really fun. you have to walk carefully nice concept.
When you enter a door sometimes you run immediately into a pit. The game could be a bit more forgiving there. Other than that, nice job.
Neat concept, I like the randomness of the rooms if you don't have a light! For some reason I didn't hear any music though...
Excellent game. ESDF is the best choice. http://use-esdf.org/
Definitely liked the concept, but I agree that it's a bit too easy to fall into a bottomless pit. Maybe it'd work better if you were unable to step past the edge instead.
controls are a little funky, using esdf my hands ended up moving many times while moving and i ended up going left when meaning to move down. collision is a bit off too, kept falling in pits i was clearly not in.
Pretty fun, i got really frustrated after getting both gems and then losing it on a tiny hole. also all you get for winning is a retry screen =/
First of all, I really enjoed the music. Seemed oriental enough to go with the mood. Graphics were minimalist but nice looking. I didn't like the controls, movement was harsh and I died a lot in a dumb way... Otherwise nice atmosphere and puzzle :)
Brilliant idea! The game has fun, controls, adventure. I really like it.
Good game.
The wilhelm scream was not made in the 48hrs. I'll remind you all assets must be made in the 48hrs.
Nice game. I like the idea of walking around in the dark avoiding pitfalls.
Sources doesnt work properly, please fix that! Im extremely curious how you made it and i may find answer i was seeking for a long time (about level generation based on few "floors")
I really like the mood of this game, as well as the main concept.
The torch\maze mechanic is really clever and interesting, adding a lot of fun to the game
It's a hard title, but that's not necessarily a bad thing. A little difficult to grasp at first, maybe even because of "uncommon" controls.
Has some minor bugs, such as: the game still runs on background sometimes, after you die and go back to the "intro\help popup".
Nice idea, but controls are not very handy. (EDSF? Why?)
I like the shifting rooms, cool concept. I liked it, good job :)
Is it possible to share .capx? I thought you sent it when you meant sources. :P
I quite enjoyed this! As many people commented, the controls are a bit iffy, but the game is fun and pretty solid.
Nice!
Thanks!
To be honest, I didn't enjoy it. Super weird button choices, literally doesn't do what it should. Putting torches down doesn't stop them from changing? I put torches in two rooms and after a while, the lit rooms changed as I moved through other rooms. Half the time, items appear on thin air. Got the golden key and it would disappear from my inventory when I left the room. Along with the extreme difficulty of avoiding the pits (momentum from the previous room will usually carry you into a pit), needs a lot of work.
why not WASD?
