Level 6 broken! Apart from that great game

@Aree-Vanier Fixed... I used == instead of <=. Stupid mistake...

Good game. Controls felt strange at first, other than that I loved it!

ajayajayaj 2015-12-15 22:24

@CaptainRed It is supposed to make it challenging.

Don't be too hard on yourself. You learned many things in the process of making the game, right? You finished a game in 72 hours after all - that more than half the people who start the jam can say! I'm giving you 5 stars for not giving up.

Cool game. The wonky controls were, I think, part of the challenge- the music fit as well.

Really nice considering you only used java and no libraries (I know what that's like.) You should really look into using a physics engine like JBullet though. It would have saved you time on your physics.

Fun little game dude!
Controls were a bit hard to get used to but I got there in the end and it was quite enjoyable!
(Since hard controls are the point, I say you did a good job there!)

ajayajayaj 2015-12-22 05:13

@pianoman373 I'll look into that!

@Hot Box Games Yay!

Great game. It's definitely fun although the learning curve is a bit to steep. You didn't have the time for many levels, I assume.

Controls were unresponsive, especially the small amount of spin per fuel unit. The collision boxes were off, too, and pressing left at the title screen is VERY laggy. I did enjoy the music, though, that was nice :P

ajayajayaj 2015-12-22 23:43

@acotis hmm... I didn't notice a lot of lag. I'll look into that.

The controls and the tweens are really fun! :)

Neat game. The quirky way the ship controls was actually quite interesting. Not bad at all!

Gets a moment to get used to, but controls actually work well and are main strength of the game. Game over animation is too long after several deaths.

@anv ok thanks.
