I’ve just finished my game Hell Court! Check it out!

Description

You play as a devil and hurt humans that fall into the hell. Each level has it’s own goals, but the gist of it is that you ask the human about their sins and then deal appropriate amount of mental and physical damage. After that, you return the human to your evil masters. Use your minions and contraptions to scare and hurt poor humans just enough so that they wish they’ve never done anything bad!

Thoughts and Feelings

I’m so glad that I actually finished a game! Doesn’t happen a lot to me. I spent most of the time of those 3 days developing. I blocked all distractions (real life – mobile turned off, PC – Cold Turkey). The code I produced is a horrible mangled spaghetti mess, but I didn’t care and that allowed me to get more stuff done. I wrote code, painted graphics and made the sound (using well known sfxr). I’m actually surprised that even with my horrible painting skills the game actually doesn’t look that bad.

The goal of the game is not that strong as I would like, but I think that it is not important because of the systems in the game and how they interact with each other (often in very funny ways I didn’t even image).

Future

I think that the game idea has potential. But I can’t continue with this project (since the code is really messy), so I’m releasing it as open source. I will then refactor (or rewrite) most of the code, create some more utilities and hopefully make this into a full game (potentially paid one). But for now, I need rest. A lot of it.

Anyway, go check out the game, play it, rate it. Thank you.
