I love the walking animation on the spaceman, it's a shame there was no audio for your weapon firing, or potatoes exploding, however I think the music of epic proportion made up, great job :)"},{"author_name":"mramaizng","author_uid":"8329","time":"Aug 26, 2014 @ 8:42pm","epoch":1409085420,"text":"The music is so intense it cracks me up!

I particularly liked the variety of gameplay available.\r\rI did feel like the very first level, the asteroid field between Earth and Mars, was far too hard (though obviously I got past it). There's very little reaction time available between when most of the asteroids appear on screen, and when they can hit you. Even a slight reduction in asteroid speed could make a difference there.\r\rFor the final bit, shooting down the asteroids, I thought it could last a little longer, and ramp up more from easy to hard difficulty challenge.\r\rGreat game!"},{"author_name":"HELLO23","author_uid":"21541","time":"Sep 4, 2014 @ 6:28pm","epoch":1409854980,"text":"I also thought the first part was a bit to hard, but Slime_Blue said it was too easy, so we decided to leave it like this. I have no idea what is the problem with firefox, I tried it with firefox both on windows, and on lubuntu, and the game worked fine. I am a bit hopeless about that bug that I can't seem to reproduce."},{"author_name":"Rage Paint","author_uid":"39734","time":"Sep 13, 2014 @ 8:51pm","epoch":1410641160,"text":"Didn't work for me in Chrome >_<'"}],"images":["ld30\/21541-3bf553ee1862d91f16504f0dc4e19d16.jpg","ld30\/21541-64c2d407d3002ba7586aaf567d8ee6d2.jpg","ld30\/21541-d95cb4e54e57a0af5b39ab247df933a1.jpg","ld30\/21541-2493c32c33f387aa6d0d405fbd02fff0.jpg"],"links":[{"url":"http:\/\/hellogravity.github.io\/LD30\/","text":"Web (windows\/linux\/mac)"},{"url":"https:\/\/github.com\/HelloGravity\/HelloGravity.github.io\/tree\/master\/LD30","text":"Source"}],"metadata":{"g_key":"17937","g_author":"21541","g_event":"LD30","g_eventkey":"24","g_subevent":"JAM","g_urlkey":"17966","g_title":"Potatoes To Mars","g_status":"UCHK1","g_place":"522","g_commentcount":"13","g_site2_node_id":"0","g_hide":"N","g_has_icon":"Y","g_rqueue":"0","g_random":"0"},"nds":[],"node":null,"orig_images":["http:\/\/ludumdare.com\/compo\/wp-content\/compo2\/\/375043\/21541-shot0.png-eq-900-500.jpg","http:\/\/ludumdare.com\/compo\/wp-content\/compo2\/\/375043\/21541-shot1.png-eq-900-500.jpg","http:\/\/ludumdare.com\/compo\/wp-content\/compo2\/\/375043\/21541-shot2.png-eq-900-500.jpg","http:\/\/ludumdare.com\/compo\/wp-content\/compo2\/\/375043\/21541-shot3.png-eq-900-500.jpg"],"text":"Controls:\r\nArrows - move\r\nSpace - jump or fire (depends on the part)\r\n\r\n\r\nOur game is about making a connection between Earth and Mars (two worlds) to save Earth from potato-asteroids' attack.\r\nAs the human hero, you fly to Mars to ask for the help of the aliens to get you a weapon to fight the potatoes.\r\nYea, we really like potatoes, so the game contains potatoes, a lot.\r\n\r\nThe music was created by incompetech.com, so if you like it go check the website.\r\n\r\nCode: Phaser (Javascript library : http:\/\/phaser.io\/)\r\nText editor : Sublime Text\r\nGraphics: Photoshop + Flash + Paint.NET\r\n\r\nMain Programmer: HELLO23\r\nMain Designer: Slime_Blue\r\n\r\nThis is the first Ludum Dare for Slime_Blue, and this is my third LD, but first Jam.\r\nFeel free to comment :)","title":"Potatoes To Mars"}
