f7f5: Just goto res/Settings.txt and change 1.0725 to 1,0725
Save and enjoy :)
Nice entry by the way, but the controls need finetuning since it's hard to get exactly between two blocks.
Also escaped alive. Loved it!
Plays OK, but it needs borders and I swear the controls locked in two times. Couldn't move left or right then. A solid entry.
If you get a hang of the controls it's really great. Loved the artwork!
Addictive! Thanks :)
Liked the concept, missed more forms and something like a spawn protection since it happens that you or your enemies spawn directly in each other. Still a nice entry :)
Nice visuals, fluid gameplay, nice soundtrack. Who needs more? Great work!
Easy to understand - hard to master. Lovely.
Gorgeous graphics, nice game play. I would've loved a mode where you can cut off pieces of the level until you die. The only thing missing was the sound ;)
8150! Got nearly every of those green small fish. Nice entry!
Not bad, but not enough bullet pickups and the movement gets laggy after some time. Also some enemies wont move if too many are on the screen.
So much to explore...nice entry!
One of the best I've played so far! Love the art & music package.
57 kills! Innovative controls! :)
Fun, good looking & sounding, relaxing. That's a great mix you got here! Loving it.
I'll play this again before the next LD ;) Thank you for this piece!
Thanks for the feedback so far! I'll look into the posted issues and publish a fixed version. Maybe next week. I have some word for a couple of things:
- Words: Getting a word IS really hard. The idea was, that words are mixed up and spawned. I didn't finish that function so everything is random. Which makes it really hard to get a word sometime. It's like playing scrabble and everything you have is ZYYXZSQQO.
- Words Part II: I used a list of the 1000 most common used words and I'm not satisfied with that solution as there are missing a LOT of good & often used words. Maybe I should have used the top 10.000 ;)
- OSX error: No clue. Sound's like a mismatch of a lib. I'll look into that.
- Multiplayer: Sure. But first: Bug fixing, more enemies, joypad support.
@kddekadenz
The generic JAR >should< also work on *nix systems (java -wordhunter.jar). The dotSH was made with jarsplice - seems like the only thing that works out of the box are the jars itself.
@angelk
Completing a word is as easy as pressing the right mouse button. But in some cases it still won't register a word since it only knows 10k.
@Cake&Code
After changing the spawn cache in the post-LD version it's easier to get a word. But for the full version (if I ever get to that) I'll include a lot more words. That's for sure :) Thanks for the links!
Awesome indeed!
I don't feel that good right now, but congrats on your entry!
Really nice entry. The mixing part also got me by surprise :)
Very intuitive. Loved the audio :)
Now that's a fun guestbook :D
Wow, nice one. Loved it!
Loved it. Plays way smoother than it looks at first ;)
A crossover of minecraft and pov? Thank you! The only thing I'm not comfortable with, is the time limit. But that's just me. I just love to take time in games. One of the best I've played yet. I'd love to see a post-compo version with a puzzle mode.
PS: If you don't know pov: http://futrellsoftware.com/pov.php
I don't know if there's something like that for windows too. A shame that it's not cross platform.
You can almost feel the falling speed. Nice one. Quite addictive!
