Since u answered my - well, not so friendly- comment, I’ll give u a comment which is more of use for u. I tried ur game now for 30minutes and here is what I think is not ok: 1st: no mute option - or I couldn't find it in 30 min :/ I really hate this. 2nd: no tutorial. I was killed before I shot one bullet - and then I button-smashed my keyboard to find out how I do something in this game. Needless to say I died again. 3rd: bad controls - not everywhere in the world ppl use a qwerty-keyboard. so imagine instead of using u [z] use [y] - this isn't a pleasant way of playing! And controlling with arrow keys - ahh I hate that too! 4th: gameplay: very boring. I like pirate games, but this one is - like u said - for 5 min, and then u loose the fun in it. I still don't know what earns me the most money - killing ships - collecting stars or collecting these crates. 5th: graphic: I really don't like the "curved" world - I’d rather like to see my ship from above, or at least on a plane sea.
Hi Equi thx for a more constructive post,
options are on the todo list, so sound and other control methods will be added then. to answer point 2 there is a small tutorial thats next to the arcade select button. point 4. the full game has missions planned and more modes. this is more like an alpha of the game im releasing to get feedback like yours. ive put no ads in it for that reason. you score infamy by killing things.. this dictates the level difficulty factor and gold by cashing in crates. which you can then buy upgrades to your ship. point 5, i cant help you with .. i like the spherical nature of it. flats borings imo. we'll have to agree to differ on that one.. again im sorry for causing you frustration which was not my aim.
HAHAH dang, glad you liked that one. That was the best comparison I could think of really! HAHAH Thanks for the comment and the play! I appreciate it! Best, -Tim
The sluice box scales VERY VERY VERY VERY VERY VERY badly! Just 1 more per upgrade - that's ridiculous! I have 80 labors, when I upgrade what they can carry just by 0.1, I have an income increase by 8! so I need 8 upgrades on the sluice box to compensate that... but I increased the capacity of the labors by 2 !! That means 160 upgrades needed... after 6 hours I still don't have a good enough sluice box to use all the extra stuff the labors are bringing.. and the cost of additional capacity is like 0,0001 of what the next level of my sluice box is... please fix that...
Oho! There also bugs in the ELITE zone! "Whtespace is gaps in your code," from "Part 3/7 Strings" misses something :=) There must be a better way to tell you this than using the comments :(
So, I just made my diploma *woohoo* and I have a question: To double my value, should't "userInput += userinput;" also be working? Or even "userInput += 50;" (at least in this special case?) - I know, this isn't the best, fastest and efficient way - but it should work anyways. Can't you define more than one correct answer?
Sorry 4 spamming - but there is something - I find funny, and I want you to implement it! Part 8/8 Basic Programming Math "Type:
I'm becoming a programmer!" Please change that to: "I'm becoming a program(m)er!" - It's a game after all - isn't it?!
More bugs to come *how exciting!* "7 myNumber = myNumber + 5000" from "Part 9/11 Basic Variables". There is an ; missing - or was it on purpose? to remind ppl to don't forgot something? ^.^
After finishing my pizza I found a bug *I am so excited!* "It is important to notice that we only had to use the words 'private var' once, when we decared the new variable at the start." From "Part 8/11 Basic Variables".
There is a L missing - you surely find out where :)
Ok. Imagine this: You are in the training camp, answering all thoose questions, and suddenly you realize: your pizza is ready! Now you wanna stop, change the screen - but - you can't! You are damned to complete the whole training before you can do anything else. This is maybe a bit harsch - don't you think? Let ppl make a break whenever they want - please!
Thanks for all of your comments! :) I'm a little confused by this one though. The game should be saving every time you finish a mini-level. You shouldn't have to do the whole training zone in one sitting. Or did the savefile mess that up to?
