This is the kind of game that you can get good at. Where the player levels up (evolves), along with the avatar on screen. Great use of the theme! I would love to play a super polished version of this. It was also great to see the cause of death, because the life cycles can be pretty rapid. Good Game.
I don't normally like these text heavy games, mainly because I'm still ignorant to their draw. But this was pretty sweet. Two things: the lack of sound made it hard to stay engaged with. Even if I was playing my own music. Second, why are the criminals black? That didn't really sit well with me. But I'm probably just noticing this shit because it's everywhere, if you care to notice it. That said, I'd still play this as a final product, if these issues were addressed.
Oh wow, sorry for the mini-freak out!, and thanks for checking my game out! Again, that game needs sound! The bike riding scene is cool already, it needs animation, and music! something brooding.
Cool to see another Stencyl user!
This is a pretty cool concept. The controls are the biggest barrier to progression though. For me at least. with a simplified control scheme this would be a lot better. I really like the graphics, though, real nice presentation.
I really like the atmosphere of your game. The mechanic is also pretty interesting. Especially for the style of game you're making. I just thought, "GLaDOS!" When I was reading the text! Pretty cool. I can't really complain, for a game made in 15 hours. Bravo!
Thanks for the comments and feedback! I was definitely thinking of having diagonal movement, but I found it more challenging without it, hence the final product. I just like tough games with deliberate control design.
Again thanks for playing! It means a lot that people actually spent time on this. Especially for being my first game.
I din't get much out of this in terms of gameplay, but it made me feel pretty good. From the title screen and the music, to how it ends. I feel it was quite appropriate.
This works pretty well! I agree, the graphics could be improved, but mainly just by adding animation. sound would be awesome as well. Also, thanks for checking out my game! I really appreciate the feedback!
Wow, this is something I've been wanting to make for a while now. Glad to see it actually be pulled off. I can see this becoming bigger. The only things I'm not so hot on are the music, which is in complete juxtaposition to the actual mood and events of the current game. Also, unless I haven't figured it out, it would be nice to have a way to restart after dying.
The balance issues can be fixed with some work, and the visuals are just right for this. Awesome.
Yeah, I second that. I bet it would have been pretty cool. Judging from the simple and solid mechanic (moving). Pretty sweet for your first game in Flixel. Or anything for that matter.
I really like the musical progression in the Post Jam version. Still wish it were longer though! I was getting excited to see what the creature would become.
Wow, this was more fun than I expected! I really think you can make something out of this. I kept thinking of myself as a rabble rouser, who kept gathering followers who then in turn served as instruments of my cause. Some were collateral, some were militant, some were highly mobile. Hah, anyway, that's pushing it for a bunch of cubes on a screen, but hey, I had fun with it.
Oh maaan!! This is that game I dream of making all the time! I just don't know how to plan it! So happy I can play it, though. Thanks for making it. I died on the first day, on my first play! I lasted till the 30th day on my next. The psychiatrist, doctor and engineer all went crazy! Totally felt helpless. The only thing I'm a little iffy on is the sound. Unfortunately it kept cutting out at different points with each game I played. That would take me out of it completely. Especially when the awesome music just cuts out without warning. Or did I miss something? Anyway, I've got a radio to fix! Great Job, guys!
Sweet intro, too. So appropriate!
Oh wow, this is fantastic! I love the control sceme. It works well enough to provide the player with a chalenge. The visuals are refreshingly simple, too. I also like the absence of a tutorial! The only thing I'm not a fan of is the audio/music. I like that it's reactive, and the implementation makes for a richer experience. The actual sounds somehow clash with the visual tone. But that's just my opinion. Awesome game. I'd definitely drop some change on a full version of this.
Oh wow, I'l really overwhelmed by the feedback, guys!
Yes, the game takes a little while to load, but I unfortunately couldn't tell you why that is. Please be patient, even though it can be a little frustrating. All I really want is to share this experience with you guys. :)
And yes! The levels!! I feel each an d everyone of you on that! We just didn't have time to think of that. We both wanted to make something that felt like a complete and well thought out project, given our time limit (and, you know, life outside the Jam).
@DaveDobson yeah, you're right. I talked about it over with my partner and we decided to both put it up through our separate accounts. I'm glad you liked it, though! Thanks for checking it out.
This is a cool concept, it adds a layer of strategy. Only problem is there's almost no reason to move away from the center. Different enemy types, that make you move around or behave differently, would add a bit more to it. Cool to see a Stencyl game in the jam, too.
Hey, thanks for the nice words! I've never played Killer 7, so I'll take that as a compliment! XD
This game is really cool. It starts off a little jokey ("Mitsubishi!") But then becomes a game of concentration and patience. Wonderful!
