I got votes!

Hey everybody!

Well, I was banned from the Poppenkast (whole 'nother story, won't go into it). However, kind mr. JW still let my game be entered into the competition. Of course, I was never going to beat some of the entries there, but nonetheless

I GOT VOTES!

That's right. I've got three so far. Which means I'm ahead of FIVE other games! (All of which are undoubtedly better, but nonetheless.) And I'm drawing with two others! In fact, I'm in drawn fourth place!

YAY!

Dougun

Hi all.

So, due to files being lost and my memory stick screwing up, Run Away! is gone. But I've made another game for that competition (thankfully the deadline was put forward a few days).

I'm in a bit of rush, so no screenshot this time, sorry. Most of it's pretty self-explanatory anyway. Just use the arrow keys to move, Z to jump, X to shoot and Shift to switch weapons (pistol, shotgun and rail-gun). Ammo is universal; pistol uses 1, shotgun uses 5 and rail-gun uses 10.

Stay alive for as long as you can. Start off at Nightmare and if that's too hard, try Hard. Easy was put there for 3 year-olds.

Enjoy!

PS: I will probably make another version soon where a timer records the time you stayed alive, how many bullets you used, or whatever.

Run Away!

Another game.

This time, one that's not finished. There's another competition going on over at the Poppenkast, this time, you have only 4 hours to complete it (the deadline's Sunday). They love those kind of cruel, time-limiting competitions.

Anyway, I'm working on my entry frantically. It's called Run Away! and since the theme is money, the main idea is that you must run away from this angry face thing which fires rockets at you, drops crates on you and does other mean things. Basically, I'm almost entirely ignoring the theme, but that's okay, because it's the Poppenkast.

Again, click on the title to check out my post, but that would be pointless, because there's not much in it, heh. Might as well check out the topic, too.

Update soon, hopefully.

Negative Space

Negative Space is the first game I ever finished.

That's right folks, it took me around five years to actually finish a game. In fact, this particular game took me about a week. It was for a competition over at the wonderful Poppenkast forums entitled "BIG COMPO 01". Judging is still on, but seeing some of the other entries, I can already tell how doomed I am.

The theme for the competition was "film noir", or rather, "game noir".

Check out this topic for more details. Click this post's title to go straight to my post containing my game's download link.

Enjoy.

Ohai

Well, I was a little bored, so I thought, what the heck, blogs are where it's at.

So, yeah, I'll post updates concerning any games I'm making, and with any luck, I'll post games that I've actually finished.
