this is an old project that i decided to tidy up and submit. i always liked the engine but could never turn it into a game, so i made a survival mode. its pretty addictive and its always fun to try to beat your highscore.


i recommend u get accustomed to the controls in the how to play menu. in this game, getting used to how the character moves and attacks is KEY


EVEN IF U DONT LIKE THE GAME TRY THE BONUS MAD-LIB.
I guarantee you lol


check out some of my other games, Devils Never Cry is the best, and Planet Invaders is interesting and has very good AI

the 0 is the tarrget and i can get it and its all ways ther its so gay
but love the sprites and all

JCesta responds:

use teh wall jump. still cant get it? use a wall jump and an arrow.

Needs..

Ability to change the controls... working off of a mac with the newest OS on it... its a pain to do the jumping and attacking... because control also enables the window switching O.o Id be playing it and go to attack a target half way off of the floor and it would switch to Itunes and s**t... So I don't know if the game is good or not...

JCesta responds:

i never thought of mac frendly controls
Ill remember that for now on

Needs work

Personally, I see this as a prototype. The Mad-lib doesn't seem to work (when I used it anyway). The animation at times was a little rigid and the key alocations were a bit weird. Plus some of the targets were impossible to hit.

My advise (take it or leave it):
Fix the Mat-Lib (whatever it is).
Adjust the targets so they only appear within reach and possible remove the wall jump because you can't move forwards and strike at the same time, the key doesn't respond (because ctrl arrow has a different ASCII code than ctrl followed by arrow).
May be add a sidescroll option.
Possibly add a boss stage system fighting large enemies.

Very good for what it is, but needs improving to hit the all important 10/10. If you redo and make an improvement I'd be more than happy to give it a 10. Great concept just needs a little work on execution.

A plot line might be ok, but its not needed. Link was in soul calibur 2 and that made no sense even though it did supposedly have a plot. Besides, Link doesn't need a reason to fight. He's like its what he does.

Thats all for now.

aiight

it woz aiight, nxt timt can u make it an adventure game n add a stortline, otherwise u did quite well

JCesta responds:

when i started making the game a long time ago (at least 2 years ago) i tried for a story... but... i cant design levels because i dont know how to make the screen follow him as he goes through a level. AI has also never been my strong point either.

i would like to see this as a full game, but am just plain unable
