I love the idea and the critism to our community, to judge only what you see..
I have answered your statement pls come again and check out it could help us alot (your the first to say you couldnt see your resources and we want to fix it)
very nice idea, remembered me pretty much of portal.
in the 2nd "real" room with the 2 green boxes and the 1 cube the door didnt open, could walk through it after a while though...
the charging bar was pretty hard to see/find
in the 3rd real room i was unable to move dont know why. Nevertheless it´s a great game. Looks like you have some experience in making games so i would appreciate if u could look at our game and give us some feedback
Full Humor for ships beeing pulled down and beeing just fine after coming up again :D
Pretty funny game, I have answered your statement so you can check out our site again if you want ^^
impressive that u made a multiplayer game, we thought of adding it too, but time was to short.
ps.: could you pls check our game again if it works for linux now?
AWESOME idea!!!
@ kristof, y the inivisible guy is indeed a bit tricky. He gets only 1 dmg per hit on him, u need many dwarfes or 2 hammer dwarfes to kill him, we needed a good guy to balance our weapons, the axe was to superior without the invis guy. We could lower his starting Hp though
@Peni6
We are sorry, that it didn´t work on your pc. Please be petient with us it´s our first LD and we didn´t thought of the possibility that it doesnt work on other operating Systems (we 5 all have windows). We are currently trying to fix it by rename our files and hope it will work
well zerkruemler did you look at the monsters armor? The hammer gives attack speed but if the armor is higher than your damage you wont harm him. You could try to equip the Axe, gives no atk speed but heavy dmg. Also it could be that the level of the monster was just to high. Did you level your dwarfes enough? We had the gameplay faster in the beginning but it was impossible to handle especially when you and the enemys have higher level and when you have several of dwarfes. And y the difficulty is not that accurat, we will rename them.
KirbiKaka hm it shouldnt be hard to close, we hadnt had that bug till yet, what operating system you use? You can see how maps are created file folder under how to create new maps ^^
y might be a hard entrance into the game, but its hard to judge what´s difficult and whats not when u played the game several of hours and understand how the mechanic works, for us every map was possible we will discuss it later
@KirbiKaka: We have to admit that there are some levels that are definitly too hard in the beginning, especially with strong enemies in a small cave, where you can hardly escape. There's definitly some work waiting for aus :D
We are currently working on a longer tutorial with special levels so every player can start from the very beginning without getting harmed and killed instantly.
By the Way we are currently working at a "full version" of our game. Included are bugfixes, visual makeup like light, a campaign buildings and other stuffs. Of course we would need some testplayers so it would be great if you could help us.
@sevenkingdoms, it was never meant to be playable in web.
@ ZYXer we will rework the speed in the "full" version. For fater game we recommend that u play "Small" its a tougher 1 but with only 10 crystals. Also there will be more animation in the "full" version, the sign for blocks is already included
Great game!
Walked to the end of the Screen on the right side and couldn't move anywhere then except from drilling down. You should fix that :/
<3 the random generation!
i have never played text adventures bevore so i cant judge properly but i found it really interesting (even though i was a bit disappointed after not beeing able to open the gates with the key from the library XD)
hope you could check out our game and leave us a comment
to your comment for our game:
the multiplayer only works within a network ;/
but you can play it with others via sharing the mouse (hamachi for example supports that)
it was planned that to make a way will be hard (depends on your luck, would there be a way from the beginning the game would end to fast )
if you dont see clearly what islands are connected you can turn of the movable ice shells, then all islands fit perfectly ^^
but thx for the long comment, it helps us much more to hear your honest opinion than just some numbers :D
Great pixelart :D
not bad .
nice idea, but a bit easy to hinder them to get through. Just need some overlapping fires, a bit salt and wind after that and they never stand a chance to get through
played till score 7000 then i got bored
even thought good game and we´d appreciate if you could check out ours too
haha the ending was awesome (dont know if it was really the end couldnt react more) but the guy :" hey wtf are you doing" and you see its a lake just awesome XD
could you pls check out our game and leave a comment? ^^
Had some trouble figuring out the actual hitbox of the player, But i love the music & art
same here, made it till "Onslaught".
Standing in the verry bottom or top of the screen makes it very easy cause bullets rarely get there.
Pretty interesting but hard to play since it´s lagging like hell o.O
we´d love if you could checkout our game and leave a comment :D
haha i first didnt know what you meant about the laggs under our game :D then i realised that you mean your game ^^
thx for fixing it its way better to play (but there are some bugs in the walls, in lvl 5 i could even jump into the menue XD)
ah ok didnt know you meant it like that, there are also many puzzles you can skip with going through the wall :D
reading would make my life easier XD
omg .... so difficult to not kill the sheep yourself.
Luke pls tell us if you could fix the issues / found out why you have issues.
We absolutely recommend to watch the timelapse it´s amazing D
@ justin, well you need the time if you actually play a real match vs someone else
@ cake oh yeah its pretty awesome against other players, we are pretty sorry that we couldnt make it run via internet (its possibly within a network or via mouse sharing (we,the team used hamachi to play against each other)
@sharky, y that isnt possible, only to persons in a network with you
@ chaoseed, the path should be hard to make! and for the difficulty to see what platforms are connected you can turn of the movable ice shells then you should see it better ^^
well, it shouldn´t take that long. True you have a bit white screen while loading the animations etc. My laptop needs less then 30 seconds to lunch but with a less good it might as well take 1-2 min i guess. Unfortunately we cant shorten that time unless we erase some of the animations
benjamin you clicked on local multiplayer? or you tried to connect to port?(thats only possible in your local network)
Awesome animations between the levels!
Wanted to leave a comment from our team. We pretty much enjoyed playing it even though we were sceptic if a text game could be good, but you made it wonderful.
It worked me a bit up that i couldnt ask den whats wrong with him (cleary sth was not right "call no authorities..." and the sudden Jonathan). Pls make an end i want to know what happens after dead battery :D
nice idea (even though it didnt hit the theme) but it bugged me a bit that i couldnt move and look around at the same time
noooo i was on my way to a planet with a chance of 95% for surviving with 3 embryos... and then the battery went out -.-
haha pretty good, got to lvl 15 then i died because i was to long in shop
ps.: little cheat, hook the top platform so that your weapon is a bit above the middle platform, then shoot with the bazooka, you will hit lvl 12 with ease :D
not bad idea, but there was a time i could do nothing because that guy was so often there and any direction would have killed him. What is the criteria to win? suddenly had You Win
i love the visuals.
pretty nice game (thx for the comment to our game else i woulnd´t have found it )
the first guard was pretty hard indeed at first i couldn´t pass then i read your instructions, few but gave me enough clue to pass him, the rest was pretty easy with turning off the light. Also i think the "secret" passages were to easy to see if you lock closely (they are a bit more transparent so i found them all ;D). My last point is a "hey you got is safely) would be nice, thought the cop got me while walking through the secret exit and i retried but the 2nd time I´m 100% sure the cop didn´t see me so it must be the lack of a endgame scenario
But only minor things, all in all a pretty good game !
ps.: you see the connections better if you turn off movable iceshells snow and water :D
Thanks, I have to say I (the programmer) didn't put much work into this game -.- that's why the controls are so wierd and thats why you can get stuck and so on...
the jumping though is intentionally :) if you double tap space you're supposed to jump the highest and by waiting a long time before hitting space the 2nd time you can travel a long distance sidewards. If you wait until te character is falling you do even ignore the downwards speed and jump as if you had no velocity to begin with.
Sometimes you can't jump from cause you're walking upwars but thats actually cuse you get stuck in the ground.
Well, anyway thaks for playing and the feedback.
I'm sorry for the problems with mac. I probably won't look into it though.
haha nice philipp, thats exactly what we refered too ^^ (the reason why he is immortal) his only purpose is to annoy you like interrupting your jump
first we had it a bit more serious but as the first day passed and after loosing even more interest we keept making it even more weird (too keep us going)
well thanks for playing our game, we hope you had at least some fun
Died pretty fast at the beginning but after some time I got the hang of it. I kind of felt immortal against the enemys following the player (warp, shot them in the back and warp again)
Anyway thank you for your long comment on our game.
I don´t know if you read this or want to know it but I´ll tell you anyway ( I think there should be some kind of message system on LD ).
If I remember correctly we had a pathfinding but one of us thought it would be cooler without, so we tried it.
We plan on spending another week or so to complete this game (we will spend much of that time in mapmaking and storypolishing, maybe even a campaign).
With the new maps the feeling of being a swarm will get a lot better I assume.
Greetings Team Wir
Thanks for the comments, we added an explanation via pictures
@chipassgames
We know that, thats why we added the explanations here in the screenshots.
@synthetic-entropy
Well, the time limit was implemented with the background, that the hivemind has no need of swarm, that takes that long to evolve :D
I´ll try to encourage the rest of my team to talk it through and make new maps.
I liked how you could destroy the other canon shots
Could be nice but to be honest we have hardly any idea what to do and especially HOW to do it. You could have included some kind of tutorial or manual about the keys and what they do. Therefore there really is a lack of Fun.
Nice Idea !
Thank you for commenting our game, we added explanations (hope they explain everything). We haven´t fixed the resolution problem yet but we will when we got time for it.
Maybe you could give our game another try? (We recommend playing small islands)
Great game, a bit short though ^^
I love that game machanics. It´s a bit crappy to jump though but thats the 2 button controlls fault ^^
Sometimes I got stuck in blocks but all in all I liked that game
Greetings Team Wir
Realla nice game !
Kind of funny controlls. I died at the first attempt cuz I got with my mouse into the black mass :D.
It also got really fast when I was on the brink of winning.
Bevore I got the 100 points for white, the black side had -7 points (Don´t know if you wanted it like that but if not maybe you should look into that ^^).
I loved the black dragons (lets call it that :D) especially when I was on the brink of loosing.
Greetings Team Wir
ps.: We would love if you could play our game, I´d say its better to see someone actually play then reading only their comments (comments are pretty nice too, though).
Pretty nice game (sorry though, for writing more about our game than yours, but I think you read your comments more than ours)
It was planned kinda different, there should have been a picture exlpaining the hud (the meaning of the timers, the meaning of the unit tree)
Yeah, we had a complete system and it really worked kinda well but some hours bevore deadline we recognized it was to easy to win and so we etablished a new system. The problem was, that the maps were now almost impossible to win (except the tutorial and small island)
This time we set our goal so high, that we had all of our team (except 1) make textures (they are all self made with gimp, with some help from online tutorials). We almost worked non stop, the programmer did a really amazing job (all from scratch except his self made library) coding all the features.
Anyway, thank you really much for your feedback. Comments like yours are exactly why we are here. Sadly we won´t be able to fix the map problem the next days (since there is a RL problem I can´t talk about) but I will add a explanation about the unit and building system soon.
Greetings,
Team Wir
ps.: Sorry for the language fails, it´s pretty late ^^
