I just did a tune for Bisse's game. If anyone else needs one, hit me up.

Man, that's some cool mechanics Walrus. Would be great as a casual game if it wasn't so frustrating. I think the game would've been better as smaller levels rather than a big one. Right now it feels a bit overwhelming. Definitely a concept worth expanding upon. Good job!

Thank you cactus! I am a fan of your games as well (one of my favorites was Ad Nauseam 2... lots of games nowadays try to make you feel badass but AN2 was one of the few that made me feel like a freaking force of nature). And I know that Clean Asia was an IGF finalist. It definitely seems like you are good at what you do, and I appreciate the constructive comment.
You are right though, it is too frustrating. I designed the entire level without playtesting, so I had no idea how easy or hard it would be in the final build. It definitely needs some balancing... I might scrap the weird checkpoint system if I expand the game, and just use standard stationary, infinitely usable checkpoints.
I kinda like the big level though. I guess I'm just intrigued by how the "sticky hand" mechanic could lend itself to exploration and stuff. I feel like I might actually make it into an "open world" style game. But I would probably add some kind of "gem detector" or something so you know where to go.

Well, whatever you decide to do with it, I'm sure it will turn out well. I'm amazed that you managed to make the game as good as it is in only three hours  |

Well I thought it was amazing that you made Kryzta in three hours, it's way more polished than my game if you ask me. But I guess part of it could be that Game Maker and MMF2 have different strengths and weaknesses, it's probably faster to do certain things in one rather than the other. |

  http://willhostforfood.com/access.php?fileid=27766Super Sniper! I sadly didn't get to do a lot of things that I wanted to do with it, but I am quite proud of the quality given the time limit. Try and kill all the baddies as fast as you can, but don't kill any hostages! |

Black Parchment your game is pretty radical but, way too short. Also the last level is way unfair, it would be ok if at least the enemies could eat the guys you turn into path blockers, or if there was any way at all of getting those guys to stop blocking, because then you could stand on the platform and shoot them down. But as it is it's just impossible. Or maybe there's something I missed. The music kicks ass though!

Bob And The Fly --- I like the one-button steering, it's hard to control but that's kind of the point right?? SuperSniper --- Nice and simple artwork and stuff, I like it... actually kind of relaxing Walk Aftermath --- Good graphics and nice idea (like a simpler Lemmings w/ guns). I thought the last level was impossible but then I realized I could stand on the platform and shoot them... maybe I'll try again?? Also, a speedup button would make it a lot funner I Was In The War --- This game is great!! I love the way you skewed the camera and made warnings scroll through the middle part. The music fits it perfectly. It's very stylish. I feel like I'm playing something that's deeply symbolic, even though it looks simple. Like it's depicting how ridiculous war really is or... something. I don't know. It's pretty fun, good job! |

Bisse, when I saw your game I realized I wish I grew up in the time of pixels. Loved how you grew and the sheer size of the tanks to show how powerful they are. The changing of sides was a coo idea. but one thing annoyed me that when the missiles came down they didn't destory the people when they were asploded. btw spoiler for those who want to solve the last lvl http://img386.imageshack.us/img386/3156/solotionjg0.jpgUltimateWalrus Nice idea with the hands, I've played game simular to yours but yours is the easyest to use. I kinda was intimidated by the sheer size of the place But regardless a nice piece of coding. Love the Music Phlog! |
