Cool game so far, it's a concept that's been done before but if you're just going for fun, than it's not bad.

I like the music and levels. It seems a bit easy. Maybe try only allowing 60-70% of the total current ink to be used because it seems like I have way too much at my expense to beat these levels. The graphics could be improved a bit, the Falling Frog logo in the beginning you should try making cleaner to attract people to wait for the game. The GUI's buttons could be a sleeker design as well.

Programming wise, I think The hittest on the hair should be done away with and the gravity should fall a bit faster.

More interesting levels down the road (other than spikes) could be better I guess too. Maybe some sort of enemy that eats away your line before you can finish hopping around on it or something.

[fallinfrog]

awesome ideas! thanks.

and the buttons are just to get the job done right now, will be better though. the hair thing is a good idea too. And as far as easiness, i am working on adding teleporters, lasers, and other stuff. i love the idea of a line eating monster though!

[Starogre]

Yea that all sounds good. I expected moving spikes to destroy part of my line as well but they just go right through. Whatever you want though, it's your game! :)

[fallinfrog]

honestly if i thought i could pull off something like realtime destruction i would. but frankly im clueless as to how to begin that. i will play with it though so maybe i can learn. great ideas though, thanks!

It's good, nice programming I guess.

But what do I do? I draw a line for him to move and he just falls and does nothing :\.

FUN ? not sure
Puzzling ? maybe
Original ? definitley not

The title is game feedback , there is no game to feedback on , like you said you did it yesterday night , its not a game just an experiment , go spend a week so its at least worthy of 'alpha' status or better yet spend a month for beta( just an approximation) and THEN come back for feedback

It reminded me of this game-

Pretty ugly spikes :P. Also I fell through the line once. So you might want to check your coding because stuff like that makes people angry.

[fallinfrog]

okay, technically there is a game there. if you cant figure it out, maybe i need to make it easier for people to understand then i dunno....

but you gotta get the guy to the can of soda right now. as far as gameplay, you draw the level, click go, then you navigate the world. the is an objective, and when reached, you do get to a finish. THATS GAMEPLAY! this isn't some confusing RTS or anything here, seriously. its just a little flash game.

and yes it is very similar to Draw Play. Not original, but what games nowadays are original and not using concepts that haven't been done already?

There's not much to it yet, but before I started alot of work on it and spend time and effort just to get it blammed, i posted this to get some feedback. i did. mission accomplished. the NG community will never be happy i suppose.

and to the guy who clicked go and died, TRY DRAWING A LINE UNDERNEATH YOURSELF FIRST.seriously, do you need someone to hold your hand through the entire game?

i didnt want that to sound hateful or anything guys, i just kinda was looking for something about where i should take this game before putting in many many hours into it and getting nothing out of it. I want to make something thats just fun to play around with.

Why did you start it if your going to get so pissy about it , you said it yourself you wrote it overnight so maybe youre better off leaving it and doing something proper

Don't worry about it, hd is just trolling, ignore him. I found a bug, if you happen to die underneath an object your floating angel will pick up the object and end the level for you.

It's a fun game, I've seen the concept before yeah, but just so long you bring something new, I would play it. Better graphics are needed for sure, a better looking HUD. Also, I think you should work on an eraser instead of just deleting all the lines drawn.
