Learning from what others are doing, for windows users, we have now added an exe file in the source folder on github. You can download just that single file and be able to play the game (tested on 64 bit Win10. Not sure about 32 bit). Working on a mac executable. Will update once ready. Please let us know if you have issues. Happy to fix them.
*8Suggestions:8*
- Before spawning an enemy, make sure the player is not on top of the spawn point.
- Shorter levels with increasing difficulty to give the player a feeling of progression.
Links to Windows and Linux executable files have been added to the description.
Edit: MacOS app has been added as well.
The music is wonderful.
In other hand, the controls are kinda weird, the end game was not super clear (I receive Game Over message but my health was full) and the lack of animations make the game a bit dead (got it? haha).
Suggestions:
- Since it's a top down rotation game, the player could move as it is, bit the rotation be by mouse position.
- Maybe a indicator of the body health is nice too
Hope this helps and once again, congratulations to all jammers!
Nice solution with player speed
The controls are like driving a car. up/down = accelerate/decelerate, left/right - to rotate. Will take @cvetk0 your comments about using the mouse. Much appreciated.
I'd recommend putting the "how to play" as a mandatory screen once the player clicks play.
Most players tend not to read those unless they're forced to, or unless they've already died because they didn't know how to play haha.
I also agree with some of the other comments about the pacing, the speed could have been picked up a bit to make it more action packed.
Overall though, very well done, keep up the great work. :D
ps: for running it on linux I had to make it executable `chmod +x ./RumbleInTheBronchs_Linux` and run it with shell
Despite the bit tasteless choice of theme you got a pretty solid game here, wish the bullets were a bit faster though. Great title.
I have a little feedback : I think the speed of the bullet could be faster, because when the player it has his max speed, the bullet seems very slow, but that's a detail, good work ;)
If I had to point something out, it would be that controls feel too clumsy. I believe that it is better to create difficulty by having more danger or other restraints, not by having "slow steering" movement.
@thecze jurassic park? ever played the NES game?https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=Q8UJQB-bNaU would love to make a game like that one day.
@isayneigh thats a first. when did that happen? did you bump into something when the bug showed up? will look into it.
@dedjo0 noted. bullets need to be faster.
Would have been nice to have something more satisfying happen when killing an enemy like a sound effect or animation. Shooting sounds would have been good too.
Overall good execution of the idea.
