Here is my game made for LD48 contest. Your task is to travel through veins and shoot various viruses. It's a bit buggy and it's rather small fraction of what I've intended do make, but I think it turned rather nice. Any comments will be much appreciated. Controls: Features: Known bugs/things to be corrected: Download (Win binary + data + source) (about 1.7 MB) Project page (with my worklog) http://sphere.eti.pg.gda.pl/~krzysiek/img/ingame2.jpg ________ |

Wow. Great... The tunnel effect alone is neat... and this in the short amount of time... well done! EDIT: -- |

Thanks! Quote: On a sidenote, I just found this and thought you might be interested:
Nice screenshot. Although it's very different from mine (and looks way better). But well, it's my first game using OpenGL. ________ |

I couldnt get it to run in linux, dont know why. For future reference, use forward slashes to seperate directories instead of "\\". I tried to debug the game, but it crashed in seemingly random places which probably means a memory leak. |

Works for me and runs nice. Good work! One thing I did notice, if you rotate the view all the way to the left/right, and then (possibly) look up/down, you can see the slices being removed from the tunnel. Just in case you are going to continue working on it. -- |

I died, waited a while (a few seconds -- I was lucky, I guess), and ran into a health box (well, weird spinny donut thing) then started playing again several times. Probably should have disabled powerups after death. This is actually the worst part of the game, imo -- if you can't die, then a high-score game loses flavor way too quickly. My minor complaint list is somewhat longer: Also, more feedback as to when you're hitting / hit would be nice -- some screen flicker and explosions, although it's understandable not to have time to do this in a 48 hour. And crosshairs would be cool -- it's a bit strange to aim without them. And I was sure I was hitting an enemy at several times when the game didn't seem to be recording hits. And the pacing is somewhat off; the game was rather boring in the beginning as I could just chill out on the wall and fire randomly and seem not to lose health ... but maybe I was just lucky. Finally, since the rules asked for a game "involving the spread of something" it would have been cool to see that a bit more -- maybe replicating germs or something. All that aside, it's a cool game. Great turnout for a short compo like this, and a nice first effort in OGL too

kazzmir: I know... Linux is unfortunately completely unsupported - I haven't time to think about this (wasn't sure if slashes would do with fopen) and my Linux installation isn't prepared to handle OpenGL. Also there was not enough time to do any Linux testing. I'm going to work at this game a bit and I'm going to support Linux too.

Thanks. Quote: I died, waited a while, and ran into a health box then started playing again several times.
Thanks! Quote: Oh, and highscores should be saved to file and re-read, so as to persist across plays.
I know. Highscore was done about 15-20 mins before deadline so there wasn't enough time to do it. ________ |

I'm dumb!... you should finish this game. It would be cool if you added some bloodcell (both red and white)... it would be interesting if the red blood cells were similar to "asteroids" (must be avoided or you will die) and the white ones were basically red blood cells with a small amount of AI.

Great job! This was the best of ld entries I tried, by far. |

I get the feeling you were inspired by my website?

not bad! some ideas: also, I had trouble shooting, and the targets had to be a certain distance before they would get hit. other than that, not bad at all! -- |

Anyway, I think OpenGL matrices would do better)
I haven't thought about this. When game is over input is disabled and I thought it was enough. I haven't thought about powerups.
