Pretty much unplayably buggy. The Jump button will randomly stop working, things will kill you from being nowhere near them, your character often runs suicidally into things entirely of his own accord and your health decreases quickly to zero just by entering the second level! The concept seems to be good, though.
Quite a complex game for such a simple idea. Takes a while to get used to it but it's really quite fun! A high-score thingy in the corner would be a welcome addition for any future development.
Quite fun - like Helicopter with GUNS!
This is a game?
Clever idea but quite difficult and easy to feel overwhelmed. A proper difficulty curve would be nice - maybe start with just green and gradually add creature species in as the game progresses?
Great Game, though I found that at the "just delete them" level, you can get to a point where you can't progress or restart the level, so I had to reset the game! Very annoying... Nevertheless a good game!
Claims it can't find the main class and crashes...
Clever little bit of programming! Shame it's unfinished and thus not quite a "game" yet...
I love how it is so far, is there any chance you can continue this after the competition?
Simple and quite fun but rather difficult...
REALLY Fun game - I can't put it down!
One thing though: the tilt isn't very level - perhaps an option to change what's classed as level and what's tilted in the options menu would fix this?
Quite difficult to control - plays like a Klick'n'Play game from the mid '90s. Fun concept though and if the controlling issue was fixed then this could be a brilliant game!
Slightly buggy (infinite food) but not in a way that spoils the game. Very immersive.
OK, having played through it to the end, I have to say I love it! This is by far the best game I've seen (and been able to play) so far!
I Love this game!
Really fun game! Shame the music stops after a while, the Combo/Power readout is illegible (off the top of the screen) and it's written in Java rather than the Piet language itself; but nonetheless a great game!
Can't get it to run... :(
That was quite depressing, really moving and quite powerful all at once! A great contemplation on the futility of life...
Didn't even start on my machine for some reason...
It just seems to crash.
Won't run - I double-click the game and nothing happens...
Crashes immediately on boot.
Umm... WT actual F?!
Game won't run - I double-click on the icon and LITERALLY NOTHING HAPPENS!
Somewhat fun game. Rather repetitive, but no more so than the average mid-'80s arcade game. Could do with a steeper difficulty curve though as it's a little easy and as such gets tedious waiting for the harder levels...
It's a good start, it's just a shame it doesn't really work yet...
More an experience than a game. (Must have taken you AGES! ;) )
I love the interface but, yes, it would be good if it backed onto an actual game...
Really cleverly programmed, given that it's all in Batch!
Certainly very clever but has somewhat limited fun value. Overall 3/5 (if it doesn't tag the rating to the comment...)
Fantastic game! My best score was 53!
I know what you mean, Branch, I've hit the same problem with a lot of the games. Go check out PurpleMoustache's entry "Solitary" - I know that works and it's fantastic!
Dietrich Epp, Morgawr: The "Puzzle" is literally just flicking balls of paper into the bin and trying to build up combos.
tompudding: The source code is in QuickBASIC/QBasic format. You can load it up in either (and QBasic is free so you don't even need to find a pirate copy of QuickBASIC :P ). If you have a full copy of MS-DOS 5, 6.0,6.1,6.2,6.21 or 6.22, you should have QBasic already installed. If not, just Google it...
Tainted_Code: As stated in the description, users of 64 bit versions of Windows will have to run it using DosBox. Most 32 bit Windows 7 users should be fine but some have problems; those people should use DosBox.
Requires installation on C: drive, which I can't do...
I assume it's not meant to just put black borders around my screen, play sound effects and crash...?
Dead link on the DLL download: "We are sorry, the page you requested cannot be found.
The URL may be misspelled or the page you're looking for is no longer available."
Therefore unplayable. Shame - it looked quite good, too...
Runs right up to the point where I click the difficulty level, then crashes claiming it can't create the canvas.
Clever puzzle game, though a bit complex for the theme.
Quite a good old-school beatemup. You owe me a new "G" key though...
Seems unfinished but otherwise quite poetic.
Not a bad Pong game with a good power-up system, but let down by the REALLY slow default paddle speed and the fact that the actual power-ups (as opposed to what are effectively power-downs) hardly ever appear, so if your paddle changes speed, it inevitably gets slower!
Refuses to run: "Error: Cannot find the main class"!
The restart button just unpauses the game - you have to close and re-open it. Nonetheless, quite a good game AND the only fully Java game I've managed to run on my system!
This is AMAZING! Fantastic game!
Incredible and thought-provoking!
Really quite a fun game, not that I've managed to get very far...
Rather buggy...
