Colourless: The Deeds Of Evil Mr. Mono! by bb_buster

[raw]
made by bb_buster for LD26 (COMPO)
Edit: compiled under the jre 6 so it should now work with java 6+ though you may still need to update that to latest. but in theory should work with macs =D

Further Edit: I've added a separate version for optimisation. This version draws less chunks than the previous one so I hope it helps the rendering issue, also added some fog to it to make it seem smoother

Well Evil Mr. Mono has stolen all your colours. Find them and defeat Evil Mr. Mono

The level is randomly generated as is the position of the pickups.

Use WASD keys to move forward/back and to turn left/right
when you pick up a colour you can press SpaceBar to fire it at Evil Mr. Mono

change colour (once you've picked) it up by pressing the number keys.

1 - Red colour
2- Green colour
3 - Blue colour
4 - White colour - also you can't fire white blocks

Fire one of each of the 3 colours at Evil Mr. Mono to defeat him

So this is my first LD and I think its gone all right =D

This game was built in Java using the lwjgl libraries

Game is very slow and sluggish, not sure if it's intended or if it's low FPS on my machine... I found it pretty boring, honestly :(

@M0N0QUARTZ do you have java 7+ installed, as I think it may be an issue with the jre being a different version. Otherwise I'm not sure why, sorry for that :(

@Morgwar it didn't feel slow when testing and the screen is set to a 60fps sync. Thanks for bringing this to my attention though. Next time I'll try improve on render optimization. Thanks for playing and leaving feedback. Its appreciated :)

I wasn't able to play it because of the low frame rate on my computer. Sorry.

I've also had an issue with low frame rate. I'll wait to rate it until I can test it at the proper speed.

Interesting idea and cool graphics and stuff, but not being able to strafe makes it too frustrating for me.

I couldn't find the evil guy, and the first time I played it I got an instant game over. I like how the colours follow your path though

I also couldn't find the evil guy, and had no idea what I was supposed to do after picking all the colours. Frame rate was fine. Being able to walk on the void was pretty cool, but I'm not sure it was intended :)

look & feel are nice, but I couldn't find the bad guy so I kept running around and painted the level
