cool idea! the one critical problem with it, though, is it's hard to see on what level the blocks are once they're placed - which makes getting lines difficult. other people have mentioned it but i think it makes a game that requires the a high level of concentration like tetris kind of guessing game
i like this idea a lot. i had some trouble navigating, though. i'd move a really long time in the direction of the static and i never got anywhere. maybe i'm missing something. though a lot of it was that i had to stop after awhile cause it was hurting my ears
i loved this! i loved the feel of the movement and the fisheye prespective. i loved it even more when you got hit. the map screen is also really awesome. only complaint is i think it would look much better in a stricter b/w aesthetic.
this needs some work gameplay-wise as you said. not a bad idea though. not sure what the hat on the head of a character has to do with anything =P
cool idea. a few things: i had a hard time keeping off the wave of guys after a bit. maybe i'm just not understanding the mechanics yet, because i don't know what the darker squares seem to do. also i would make the player's square stand out more & (a minor thing but) ingame when it said "L&R to shoot" it confused me.
i like the name and the painting theme. i also like how the stage gets lighter and lighter as you kill more enemies. the idea didn't strike me as particularly distinctive or fun though.
i want more balloons! i like the ms painted title/ending screens.
i realllly like the mood set by the environments. the lighting is really cool. but your character being a big orange-ish rectangle kind of clashes weirdly with the great style.
happy face's happy adventure sure involves a lot of spiteful triangles and hostile environments. this seems like a WIP - several things seem kind of broken or out of sync and i'm not sure if that's because they're not fixed or i just don't understand the mechanics. some sound or other kind of player feedback would drastically help
for those who complained about the collisions/jumping: i hear you. i'm working on fixing some of the collision problems in the next day or so, i'll put an updated version then.
NEW VERSION!! FIXED MOST OF THE COLLISION BUGS!! woo!! i updated the link. check it out if you found that off-putting before and are willing to play again.
barrenszeppelin: most of the serious collision bugs have been fixed as of 4/29, as indicated above. you might want to check that version out
the "lol u died" song was definitely the best part
you should use gamemaker 8: http://www.auntiepixelante.com/?p=1240
neat little minimal puzzle game. i think the mechanics could be a little simpler, but it works ok.
i couldn't really get anywhere other than wandering around the building. i like the idea of the game telling you stuff is there when it's not there visably. maybe a map screen would've helped that idea out, though.
neat idea (though the symbolism was maybe a bit too heavy-handed for me), but i found it too easy - and consequently kind of boring. i think it's ok to instadeath the first time your character gets hit for this kind of game. it's also probably ok to speed up the red guys a little bit. i did like how the sprites looked a lot.
the slidy movement didn't really work for me. it would almost be better as choppy. i like the gameboy visuals quite a bit, but the text/menus are kinda ugly.
neat little unity puzzle game. i like how the blocks stick to the walls. i don't like that you recycled the same puzzles and put a instadeath pit under them.
i love the look of the blocks and the gun. i wish more games did stuff like that. in terms of balance - it would've been nice to see the cores turn red a little slower. it doesn't really allow you to renew your resources fast enough before shooting at you. also i wish there was some form of audio (though i def understand time limitations).
i was totally confused by the level selection screen, but it figured it out eventually =P. i feel stupid but i can't get past screen 5. don't know how to get past the red zone. what i've seen seems a little rough around the edges, but i also really like it in a lot of ways!
def makes me think of super hexagon. i'm not super into the idea itself, but it works pretty well.
i tried to relax but there's too much rattling around in my noggin ='(. i'll try again later
clever use of audio to frame the game. i really really like the scary noises later on. the idea kind of sounds like the game the stanley parable, though it's hard for this sort of thing to work effectively without much context.
not a bad roguelike style game. the mouseclicking to control your actions and the generation presentation of the game felt kind of clunky though.
very cute! also yay stencyl! (i used it for my game too). i like the visual style too, and i like how quickly everything moves. i maybe would've liked designed stages or at least more accurate generation, because it makes things feel stale after a bit and sometimes the blobs spawn into an unwinnable situation.
the stick to ceilings mechanic made this a lot less frustrating in places, though i think you should make it more apparent that is an intentional thing you can do. i stopped right at the end of the 4th stage (i think?) when navigating the spikes got super hairy, but it was pretty enjoyable overall
