Dungeon Raid by kbf123

[raw]
made by kbf123 for LD 40 (COMPO)

Oh look, it's a sidescroller plat... not a platformer.

Enjoy, I guess.

Here are some screenshots:

So. Much. Loot! Grats on the compo entry!

I wasn't able to run it (blank grey screen on startup), but I did check out some of the art and music, which was pretty good!

Sadly, same problem as baknik, the art looks awesome would like to see it in action :)

That's odd... It works on mine. I'll try to fix this, but to be honest, I'm a bit unsure of what to do here.

I've made a new version that embeds java. Let me know if that fixes the issue.

Embedding java worked for me! It's likely that I don't have the most recent JRE installed then. I got crushed by a boulder!

That fixed it for me :thumbsup: I can't seem to outrun the boulder though. Even if I avoid other loot and get the big gold nugget first I can't get away. Not sure if it's a bug or if I'm missing something.

Nice graphics and music! And the game over screens are very well done! Congratulations!

Ok, it works now! Finally get to play the game! The art really shines in motion and create a unique blend with the music.

Managed to get all 4 endings (nice art!), so I guess you can't outrun the boulder... so don't be greedy! Getting every other piece was a little tricky, thanks to the weight/jump mechanic, but not too difficult.

I would probably slow the animations a bit, little fella is moving his legs too much, otherwise it's fine short minigame.

Enjoyed playing it!

The first time I ran into the boulder I laughed. The art is very cute and enjoyable. The music is a bit repetitive, but I try not to hold that against compo entries. I feel there's a way to get (what I assume to be) ending 1 and was attempting some Indiana-Jones esque swaperoo, but it didn't seem like that was the key. Very fun to play, regardless!

Can someone say Indiana Jones? Cool game!

Nice homage to Indiana Jones! And really good graphics, I loved the different ending screens.
Too sad that it is not allowed to use the Indy Theme ;-)

Managed to get all the endings. This is a pretty good but simple game, good artwork.

You have a whole keyboard to work with! No reason to make the player take their fingers off the controls. Otherwise, fun work! I like the art.

Haha, nice game. The boulder and ending #1 were quite funny! It's actually cool that you created several endings.

I found a bug: controls stop working if your Caps Lock key is activated.

Got all the endings! Simple game, but lots of nice details. Nice music, too!

Overall it's a pretty neat game. Although you could have put a little more effort into sfx and such. Small things like that can greatly improve the game feel!
Keep it up :)

Nice little game. Love the different ending screens (deaths included). The music is also really cool, if a tiny bit repetitive, but I'll consider the time limit here ;) Though the principle is simple, exploring different endings keot me engaged. Well done!

Aw, that last treasure was quite a tease, but I guess you can never out-run the boulder. It's pretty cute, and I appreciate the loose collision detection keeping my character from dying too quickly. Not exactly a fan that the central game conceit is just dodging enemies while handling with the negatives of lifting all the items. I dunno, I guess that experience is just not for me. The experience just feels like a one-off narrative and that's it.
