Play my Game

[starBlinky]

Hey Newgrounds, heres my game again
http://denvish.net/ulf/260507/45100_gameforgu y.php

I spent so long fixing bugs and adding minor details, I haven't gotten to finishing it yet. But it's looking really good so far, what do you think? Please tell me about any confusion with the game, warn me of any bugs and give me tons of suggestions and feedback.
I know theres no sound/music yet, It's being added at the end.

Anyways if any body is interested in drawing your own guy to play with, then draw him up and email him to me in an FLA. Make sure his head, body and weapon are put in separate MC's or Graphics. Don't draw his legs or his arms, I've taken care of that.

Heres the dimensions for the body parts if your interested in drawing new ones to play with:
37 x 32 pixels for the head
33 X 44 pixels for the body
20 X 60 pixels for the weapon

Try not to stray to far away from the style I'm using; just simple graphics.
Send FLA.'s here [e-mail]

It looks okay but FFS stop posting about it! It was only a few posts ago since you made the last thread about it!

[starBlinky]

nah that was weeks ago, I was wondering if people wanted to draw their own guys XD

[Ponz]

It seems like this will be a fun game, i might do something, just a question though. People that help will be included in the credits right?

[Battered-Prawn]

this is really cool. i love it ^^, when it comes out on ng ill 5 it.

oh and btw you should try and speed up that sword movement so it looks more like a slash and less like just a sword movement.

1. It wasn't weeks ago... yet
2. You've posted in ONE thread since, it's like you only come to NG to advertise your game
3. I might draw up some characters, not sure =p

It's pretty good but lacks a lot of balance in some ways. That first enemy is a pain in the ass because it seems impossible to pass his enormous wall of fire without getting his at least once. All you can really hope for is that he teleports somewhere far enough that you can hide from his fire and rebuild your health. Plus the hitboxes seem really unclear and I was never sure what was hurting me in that bug fight or whether it was even worth it to kill the bugs since one replaces them instantly. The sword animation could be much faster. It feels like there's an actual response time that you have to wait through. Those are my crits, but keep going, because it shows promise.

Nah, no credits, just for fun, so you can play your own guy in the game. And I'll message you when I submit it so you can play.

PSHA! Yeah well I like to advertise my games here, NG is a good place to get good feedback. :P

Hey thanks for the input, I'll make the sword faster. When you fight the worm, if you hit the falling rocks you get hurt. I'll change that so your invincible against rocks :P
Well with the first guy, yes it is hard to not get hurt with him. But you can always replenish your health right? So I think its a fair balance there.

[shazwoogle]

Need better art.

[squidly]

It's good but you're terrible at hyping.

[Mehrdad14]

i got to slug but its to hard because you only have one or two hp left... please make it like 5 hp for you...

[Blommestein]

Its pretty good.

[noob-toast]

It's really not that good. I don't really know why everyone else is saying it is, because it's pretty.. well, sure it's decent, but it's not good.

The controls for one, I for one hate pressing spacebar for anything, and on another note, my spacebar broke recently.

Another thing is the hitTesting is fairly detestable. I feel as though I won't be hit and I end up exploding or something.

[Blommestein]

Yeah its not good if he's planning to submit it as-is, I simply meant it's decent for a demo, assuming that things will be greatly improved in the future. In short, the concept is decent, nothing fantastic.

[BlackmarketKraig]

Yeah, that worm is hella hard. I think that 3 health spheres is too few.

[BlackmarketKraig]

DP, so shoot me.

Heh, I finally killed it. The seahorse level is cool, I like the way each "level" has totally different dynamics... on foot, falling, and with seahorse mount. I think it's a pretty good game with rather humdrum graphics, I look forward to seeing more if it.

[squidly]

I can make a couple of guys.

[squidly]

I need more health spheres, or at least health sphere pickups because I can't beat the worm!

I'll make 2 difficulties. One with 5 HP one with 3 HP

How can you judge a game based on if it uses the spacebar or not? Thats pretty dumb and its tough luck, cause' im not changing it for you :P

You will end up exploding? What, the seahorse part? You have to dodge the bombs if thats what your talking about. I thought by decorating the bombs with giant spikes and skulls would help make it obvious enough for even people like you to realize... you aren't suppose to hit them. And thanks for you comments.

I'll add some now and post an update for you. If you're interested in making new characters, then email them to me at [e-mail]

Meh, or just add me to msn w/e, I barely go online though.

[ChilliDog]

Not bad, I remember playing this when you were first starting out. I like it.

I'm almost done with a docter.

[squidly]

I'm done with my charecters. I will send them to you so check you're email.

[LordZeebmork]

Add music. That's all I have to say.

[squidly]

Check you're email

[starBlinky]

Haven't gotten your email yet, heres the updated V
THERE its easier for you now

[squidly]

Strange. I'm pretty sure I sent it.

[squidly]

Can I make a level suggestion?
Or an etxtra level or something. Maybe a coliseum where you fight until you die. Or if it's a story level, fight a lot of people then fight one huge boss.

[squidly]

Try here. This file is only for use by starBlinky.

[squidly]

Bug report: In the sea level it said the boss was coming but he never came.
