Spacewalk by tompudding

[raw]
made by tompudding for LD28 (COMPO)
Did you like the recent movie Gravity? Did you wish you could float about in space armed with only a single fire extinguisher for adjusting your momentum? Well now's your chance!

The theme tie in was supposed to be about the fire extinguisher. You only get one, so you have to pass it about between your guys to get them out.

For Linux you need to install python and pygame, and then grab the pybox2d module from here (http://code.google.com/p/pybox2d/downloads/detail?name=pybox2d-2.0.2b2.zip&can=2&q=) and install it. Windows should just work.

Is there a way for a windows user to test your game ? I would like to try it ;)

Loved the movie! It was brilliant!

I'm on PC so, I can't play it :P

Great game, harder than a 4H pencil. I would die in space. Quickly.

Cool mecanics, too bad there isn't more levels cause you have everything to make really great level design. Nice ending, nice sounds.

I wasn't able to grab the fire extinguisher. Just kept bouncing off of it

You have to click the fire extinguisher to grab it, sorry if that wasn't clear!

I like that it conserves both momentum and rotational momentum. Nice ending. Feel like there is a lot of room for expansion.

Hard to play without a mouse. Like the feeling of it and the mood. Nice idea! Stable implementation.

I found this game really hard. I could barely reach the fire extinguisher and could in no way reach the box. I almost made it once, missed it and so I gave up.

Interestingly, there is another game I found that's set in space and requires you to use the only fire extinguisher to move. Here it is: http://www.ludumdare.com/compo/ludum-dare-28/?action=preview&uid=25406 (not affiliated in any way :))
