Slaughter in Taiji

Share Collapse

Author Comments

Every year, in the bay of Taiji, hundreds of dolphins are being slaughtered. captured and seperated from their families to end up in swimming pools around the world.

This time the dolphins are armed and ready ;-)

A game with a message! The controls are a bit odd to get used to (why not have a regular menu/buttons in addition to keyboard shortcuts?), and the dolphin movement's a bit stiff, but the game itself isn't bad. The idea's unique and staying out of harms way is a balanced challenge. Guess it wouldn't be the same without the long time it takes to turn, you really need to plan a route. Keep it going!

Thanks for your review. I agree the control are a bit odd, but I kind of like it that way. The dolphin is indeed a bit stiff and i am not liking the rotating point.
I am working on improving these on the sequel, and for sure the dolphin would be less stiff then. I've got the animation ready for this. Hope to see you for the sequel.

It's 2014 and we still get crap like this?

friedfishcomics responds:

The world is big enough for it....cyber space is even bigger.

looked good.

Graphics were so so... sound was decent. loved the music.

not frontpage worthy though other than the message put forth which I truly support. Good message to send. Dolphins should not be slaughtered. They are said to be second only to us in intellect, but when you see what humanity does to animals and others around the world, can we really put ourselves above anyone or anything? Really?

That being said, I Didn't think it was that good of a game. My life is worse for playing it, but better for learning the message behind it. Keep up the good work.

friedfishcomics responds:

Thanks for your honest response. This was the first game I ever made and I agree with most that it's pretty simple. But it was more for me to see how construct was working. I am working on a sequel which has improved graphics and game play. So hope you come check again. But not sure if this would make your life worse....there are far more worst things then a game you dislike.

this is s*it!

friedfishcomics responds:

Your absolutely right, it's really s*it that they are still hunting down dolphins for our pleassure!

great game, can't wait to play

friedfishcomics responds:

Thanks man, hope you have fun with this!
