SteamScale by The crane

[raw]
made by The crane for Ludum Dare 49 (COMPO)

SteamScale This is the first game I have made a Demo, and it can be said to be my first game. It’s a game about scales. The villains and bricks keep falling from above. You need to catch them and put them on the scales. Build houses with bricks to prevent the villains from falling down. But it’s difficult, anyway, I can’t play it myself. The game is built through Construct3. When exporting, I found that only the background color is displayed. I don’t know if it is only my computer and mobile phone. If you can’t open the game, please use Construct3 to open the project source file and click preview to start the game normally. If you find the cause of the export file error, you are welcome to tell me, thank you.111111111.JPG You can open Construct 3 directly from the web page to load the game. If you are trying to launch the game via CONSTRUCT 3, please do this: 1: Open the website: https://www.construct.net/en/make-games/free-trial 2: Click the pink button Launch Construct 3. 3: Click to open the file at the top right 4: Select the game’s project file Single file format .c3p and open it 5: Click the play button above to start the game

I still don’t have a good way to improve gameplay. If you have any interesting suggestions, please let me know.

From your screenshot, the game seems incredibly interesting, unfortunately, I've never used construct 3, so I don't know how to open the game.

You can open Construct3 directly through the web page and load the game, and load the project file on the Edit game page of the Construct3 website.
I'm also trying to solve the problem of outputting to playable games, but I don't know what went wrong.

I'm sorry, all I see is source code? What website am I meant to go through? What do I load?

The screen is red when I try to start the game, both for the html5 and windows versions. Do you have any idea what happened and how can I start the game?

Interesting concept. I really like the graphic design of the scale. Is there no music or is this a problem on my part? If there is no music, you could probably turn off the audio ranting for your game, next time.

Sadly Chrome tells me he found a virus in your file *sigh* :(

The game has no music and I didn’t turn on the sound during development. Will it play noise? In addition, my computer does not display a virus prompt? If you are worried, you can try to open it with a virtual machine.

I really enjoy the art direction. It is unshaded and vibrant, while still keeping it abstract and original. The gameplay is also pretty fun. there appears to not be any sound, but you don't need that to make a great game.

Great job for finishing overall <3

Please do not compress your project before uploading to Github.

I'm not able to play the game. Red screen in the browser version or error messages on the windows version (win-7). :cry:

I'm using Linux, which means I had to run it in the browser. Looks like that was the recommended way anyway. It was quite a hassle to get it running, but eventually it did. It took me a while to figure out what I should be doing. Once I did, I liked it. Well done given the limited time of the event. If you're gong to work more on it, I'd suggest to start with some kind of scoring system. I got bored pretty soon because it didn't look like anything was going to change. If there was a score, I would give me more of a goal to keep me interested longer.

Overall, good job and well done that it got finished.

The game of life. Keeping people in one place is really very difficult. And when you push them with a brick, they fly away... :smile:

The cover art looks cool. Too bad though that the download link is to a github repo with a rar file.

Great art style! I like the animations.
Like others said you could have pushed your project files on GitHub directly instead of compressing it.
But good job!

Maybe it's possible to upload the youtube video with gameplay?

There is too much hassle required to get this to play. Since this is a web based game engine it should not be too hard to make a HTML5 export of this and upload it to itch.io. This way more people will play and rate.

For me it was a little too hard to play and i don't understand what a purpose of playing is. Loved the artstyle and theme representation :D

I loved the art syle and overall concept of the game. It seems very powerful for the first release, my congratulations.
