My Cup of Fury by One Seed Fruit

[raw]
made by One Seed Fruit for LD33 (COMPO)
​hold to lift saucer

hold or to move saucer left

hold or to move saucer right

aim with mouse

or to shoot

VICTIMIZE THEM ALL! BUT DON'T DROP THE CUP!

Hints:
1) I meant for this game to have difficult controls.

2) You probably need to master the controls first before you can actually climb the platforms.

3) If you have trouble keeping your balance in the air, try pressing up and then immediately alternate between left
and right keys to "shake" the cup into position, then maybe press up again.

4) Or let the saucer, with the cup on it, slide down towards left or right until the saucer is "horizontal" instead of being tilted towards one side.

5)

You're

>>>>>>> suppose to descend a lot, most of the time, <<<<<<<

just to keep the cup >>>>>>> balanced <<<<<<< on the saucer.

So long pressing the key with the intent of "flying" upwards will most likely throw the cup off.

Thanks for playing! Hope you love it. Sorry if it's awful.

-Fixed some colliders.
-Fixed score not resetting on game over.
-Tweaked physics a little to make game more playable.

P/S: If you're playing the WebGL version on itch.io, your controls won't work right after the game is loaded. You have to

>>>>>>>>>>click on the tiny "Unity WebGL" logo at the bottom left <<<<<<<<<<

or anywhere along there and then

>>>>>>>>>>click on the game's screen itself right after that <<<<<<<<<<<

to "activate" the "window" before the keyboard controls work. Or set the game to fullscreen.

Funny idea for the game, however I cant seem to be able to fly the saucer fluently (sometimes it boosts the power for no reason etc. ?)
At least I got pair of kills before falling over, polishing the controls would be nice. (or maybe i'm just bad player)

Moving didn't seem to work for me - I could only fire on the spot. :/

Not bad, i liked the interesting mood of the game. FYI you should tell poeple they have to full screen for the controls to work :)

Thanks davidcmcdonald. I have edited in a p/s about getting the keyboard controls to work.

This is a good concept and the graphics look quite nice I just had issues getting the controls to work well and even after full screening the game still found it difficult :) but I liked the original idea.

Great idea for a game! I like it a lot.

I did finally get the hang of the controls, but man, I gotta tell you, the game would be more fun if the controls were slightly easier! I think it would be slightly easier if the physics were more realistic.

I also would occasionally bump a platform with the cup and be told that I had lost, even though the cup was still firmly on the saucer.

It looks interesting, but unfortunately, I can't get the saucer to fly :(

Thanks guys. I just fixed the colliders a bit.


logiclogue, you're probably playing the WebGL version on the itch.io page.

So:

1. Click on the tiny "Unity WebGL" logo at the bottom left.
2. Click on the game's screen itself right after that.

Good little game! Nice art and interpretation of the theme. Quite funny too. Either the level or the controls could be a bit more forgiving. Also I wasn't that keen on the audio.

Haha thanks! Sorry about the audio. I rushed the audio part. Everything was my voice recorded using Audacity, even the sound effects of when the saucer is boosting. :p

Ether this game is REALLY hard, or I just suck...

The game is meant to be really hard. You're suppose to get used to balancing the cup on the saucer first before trying to go up the platforms. :(

Sorry!

Very very difficult to fly! Saucer is too imbalance. Great idea though.

With Unity web, control are working only full screen for me.
Maybe it's the same for the ones that can't play...

The idea is very good but the control is a bit hard. The sound doesn't help to play a long time.

Silly, neat game. I included it in part 22 of my Ludum Dare 33 Compilation video series, if you would like to take a look :) https://youtu.be/CgBnxdy5Yfk
