Neolithic by MemphisTen

[raw]
made by MemphisTen for LD26 (JAM)
Hello friends! We hope that you like our tiny puzzle platformer. Press "E" to open the inventory and choose between different shapes to get through the level. You might also drag and drop the shapes with your mouse after you placed them. We are curious to read your opinions.

We admit that this one is a little buggy. But it is self-coded in Java and we had some problems with the bounding boxes.

The game appears to be unplayable. My computer tells me the jar file is corrupt.

Pretty neat concept.

There are quite a few bugs but it definitely took hold of minimalism.

OK... a nice little platformer, but you need to say somewhere that clicking on the inventing bubble with the mouse is how you make boxes. Also, when I got to the second level, the game just exited on me.

Game works fine for me, sort of. Is there a level 2 or was that just a placeholder? If there IS a level 2, then it crashes every time I try to open it.

Neat idea, but needs to be more fleshed out.

Innovative! It crashed when I beat level 2. It took me a while to figure out that you could make blocks, and it took me a while to figure out that you could drag them around afterwards (except when you're stuck in a valley, in which case it seems a bit buggy). Collision detection is hard, eh?

Nice graphics and music so far, I like how the characted dances when holding space :) I would suggest to leave only one block (can be allready spawned), so you have to figure out how to use it in the level environment (it does not need to scroll and have numerous of gaps in a level - will be more appealing if you see the waiting girl at the right sight just from the beginning). At level 2 the game crashed (i can send you the error report).

Liked the idea, but the controls are not very intuitive. I had to read comments here to realized that I had to click the desired object. I do like the idea of calling down the blocks, but if they aren't placed right you can't do anything except reset.

simple concept.. but maybe when you reset your level the boxes you create should reset too? :-P
but great.

Sadly your game just crashes on my WinXP (32-bit) laptop, when I try to start it. :( No error message though.
