PEW! by acronaut

made by acronaut for LD26 (COMPO)

First!
loads of things to be added..
so far it's a 'toy'
WARNING:(don't fall off the edge.. no killzone reset)!
didn't have time to add sound/music, interactive npc, etc..

Pewter (yes, that's the characters name!) can fire laser, unlimited (pending how good your machine can tolerate Nth of particles)

It's a first, and loads of lessons learned.. Hopefully on next Ludum Dare I'll crunch more 'complete' in a package..

my bad, there's a readme.txt file on archive.. I'll remember next time to embed instructions on-screen or a mini-level to cover controls. Thanks!

This was such an unexpected pleasure. I love the character pewter. I can't wait to see what kind of game play you have in mind.

Really love the graphics and the design of the characters, that fluid is so cool too.

It looks really rather nice and if it could be turned into a proper game I think it would be great, it's just a shame there isn't really much to do other than make the framerate drop

I really like the idea of having something behave in an unconventional way (the lasers). I feel like there's a lot of potential there.

Wow! a Blender/Python Game! Pewter is an awesome character and the potato boss rocks! Fun to play with, you should do some post-compo versions

Sadly I can't even start it because it's not for Win 32 versions. :(

why are my lazer snakes circling the level? Why do I close my eyes when firing my lazers? Why are the controls so weird? :D nice graphics tough! :)

Seems like this could have potential! However, this is probably the only game I've seen that's capable of reducing my GTX570 to a smoking pile of silicon - you could maybe try using sprites for the gunfire! Still, this shows promise. :)
