This is a great game, but It should have more types of enemys.

programgamer 2015-12-14 03:29

Yo, the source is not working, you might want to fix that lol, it says that I don't have access to the repository.

I like the movement idea, but combined with the level design it's very difficult to get around without falling off the edge; even more so because there's no clues as to which direction I should be going in. Initially going down seemed the be the right idea, but then I suddenly ran out of ground!

The graphics are quite nice though, especially the adorable tortoises which I could barely bring myself to jump on.

mithreindeir 2015-12-14 03:31

Sorry lol I forgot to make it a public repo

bazz_boyy 2015-12-14 03:36

Not a bad game. I agree with having more enemies

batmanasb 2015-12-14 03:40

"./game: error while loading shared libraries: libSDL2-2.0.so.0: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory"

It won't launch :(

waiting for a windows version

mithreindeir 2015-12-14 03:44

5you I'm working on it right now I am trying to figure out mingW. :P batmanasb I am trying to fix that, it appears that occasionally it won't statically link

zybit 2015-12-14 03:51

If I could rate the gameplay video, I'd give it a 5 for the recorder in the background.

tazdij 2015-12-14 03:53

overall it looks nice.

stormcaller 2015-12-14 03:54

No windows or web option for me to play. Will check back later.

mestrerothwp 2015-12-14 04:02

Any chance for a Windows release?

batmanasb 2015-12-14 04:04

@MestreRothWP lol, I love the irony :P

mithreindeir 2015-12-14 04:20

@MestreRothWP if I can compile it then yes. It may not be out for a day or two

atollett100 2015-12-14 04:22

The door is literally the chest from legend of zelda link to the past. Not sure what other textures you stole, so I can't compliment them. Leaps of faith, in general, aren't solid game design. would be cool to have more walls and less air. powerups of some kind, idk

shadedvertex 2015-12-14 04:26

The graphics are sweet, but the logo isn't very original. Look's a lot like Minecraft's logo. That's not important, however. What this game really needs is more enemies.

mithreindeir 2015-12-14 04:32

@ShadesVertex I wanted it too look like minecrafts font. I should added more enemies but I ran out of time

kakureta 2015-12-14 04:41

Cool game, the graphics are rather nice too :)

davidcmcdonald 2015-12-14 05:23

heads up for making a video! nice

peekotus 2015-12-14 05:23

Its very difficult to get around but the graphics are adorable.

guigrillo13 2015-12-14 15:03

Only linux? Really?

mithreindeir 2015-12-14 19:18

@guigrillo13 I'm working on compiling it as soon as I get home

mithreindeir 2015-12-14 21:15

I made a windows version, it works in wine idk if it will work on a real windows, but if someone could test it that would be nice

madcoil 2015-12-14 21:38

Works on windows! Cool gfx, but odd gameplay. You can fall off the blocks and fall forever! I'm not sure if it's just a bug with running on windows but there's also no sound.

mithreindeir 2015-12-14 22:14

@Madcoll The linux version kills you and restarts after you fall for a certain height, and their was never any sound, SDL_Mixer isn't working on my computer so I never incorporated it.

gornova 2015-12-14 22:38

it's working on windows, but there are graphics problem, let penguins vote it!

nunesbarbosa 2015-12-14 22:58

Omg.. what is going on? The starts, you fall, lots of glitchy blocks then you die and the game crashes.

mithreindeir 2015-12-14 23:08

The game doesn't crash it exits because I never wrote the thing to re spawn you. The linux version restarts it for you.

jupiter_hadley 2015-12-15 01:14

I wasn't really sure what to do, but it worked on Windows! I included it in my Ludum Dare 34 compilation video series, if you’d like to check it out :) https://youtu.be/LlS8bcKfkfQ

Nice little game. Kudos for not using Unity ;)

mithreindeir 2016-01-05 01:00

Thanks HUMANICS, my first Ludum Dare and I'm almost wishing I used Unity. Barely playable game, I was not ready to make a SDL wrapper and Platformer Engine in 48 hours. Next time I'm gonna do better. :)
