Not Fun. WTF is this supposed to be? An exercise in how stupid a player is supposed to be? I imagine the majority of this has to do with the insane music displayed..... ABSOLUTELY HORRIBAD MUSIC, it makes me what to puke. WTF WERE YOU THINKING? Does your player really live in 1910 New York Broadway district? WTF were you thinking? I'm not normally this harsh in comments, but seriously, WTF WERE YOU THINKING?
And before I forget, a freaking Sound/Music mute or volume control. I for one, sold yachts for 10 years, YACHTS, YES $100K TO $1m plastic monstrosities! The thing I hate in life is hearing f****** steel drums! They make me think of work, not of joyous vacations, i"m sure I speak for all cruise ship employees. For majority, everyone likes to lower music during games to play their own music on Pandora or whatever provider they have. Yes I know, I hear you saying .. "But I have to seperate music from SFX in game to make that happen". yes we get it... every game dev does, but that is a noob lesson for you, never ever, ever put Music as the same audio priority as your SFX.. that should be determined from the start of your game.. If you want to bitch about it, then I can assure you, you are a noob game dev.. just do it, and I can assure you, half the people who play your game will be happy we can turn off this GOD AWFUL STEEL DRUM SOUND! but still play the game. =D
..Continued... In order to make it playable, you need some grid system to know when you are turning left/right that you will be on that path (http://answers.unity3d.com/questions/8023/creating-a-mesh-procedurally.html), because it feels whacky otherwise. Also, maybe create a story to go along with the game because it seems really drab that I'm a snake dropped in a pit trying to eat fruit (yet we all know, snakes eat other animals), and I feel let down that I'm the only dumbass snake trying to collect fruit. This isn't a simple 2d remake, if you remake in 3d, give us the immersion experience that calls for a 3d remake. If you want to make a 2d game, then forget immersion, but you are making 3d here, give me the immersion I expect!
I give 4/5 stars for a great effort, but I don't give the last star because you forgot the most important part, make a game out of this. This is nothing more than a 3d remake of 2d game.
Thank you immensely for sharing your knowledge and help me make a better game. Your feedback is very valuable because in this moment I feel that art is where I need to improve more, and you pointed out exactly where it should be done. Only disagree with you when you say that this is exactly the 3d version of the 2d game, since some modifications such as the inclusion of items and the ability to upgrade were added. But you are right in everything else, and I will improve in search of this star, my friend!
(PROFESSIONAL GAME DEV COMMENTS HERE)
First, the bad news...
I would give this game a 5 star if it weren't for the following reasons: Text is EXTREMELY HARD TO READ... font doesn't match game (it's like the font is from NASCAR 2003) good god, just put normal ariel in to match the game... for that matter, half the textures in the game seem extremely different. There is just NOT a UNIVERSAL GAME FEEL here. It doesn't match up... I feel like half the models were downloaded with their textures and the other half were made, nothing matches up. The art on this project appears like it came from 10 different artists who didn't communicate with each other.
Now, the good news...
Other than that, I think this could be a good fun game, along with the fact that you have an AWESOME IDEA, because I always wanted to be a 3d snake in these snake eating games (even though I never thought of it til I played your game, but since you mentioned it, F*** yeah, I want to be 3D).
the first rule of Fight Club is: use WASD TO CONTROL CHAR. The 2nd rull of fight club is: have mute or volue control for SFX and MUSIC... ABSOLUTELY HORRIBAD... but concept is great... keep working on this game, but it is realeased WAY WAY WAY WAY TOOO EARLY.
How do you actually start the game? I'm utterly confused, 3 mins playing, and I'm still on a menu where I have only been able to upgrade one thing because of my starting cash... WTF? Please explain.
this could be a fun game, but you need to watch this video about spicing up gameplay, because as it sets, this should not be released as a game on Kongregate as a solid made game. seriously, watch this vid, spice up your game, then rerelease it. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Fy0aCDmgnxg
this is a great concept, but it is released HORRIBLY EARLY! go back to drawing board and finish this game, there is a lot that needs to be added, but overall, great CONCEPT, this "plays" like it would be fun once it's out of concept stage.
Would love a 'FULLSCREEN' option. Easily add Screen.fullScreen = true; to awake or start function and store in playerprefs.... the GRAPHICS YOU MADE deserve fullscreen.
Also, i want to state, it looks like A LOT of work went into this game, but the progression is just not there.... i think work on progression and story and we have another 5 star winner (however, it's just too childish for me to play regularly) .... (can I say "not cool enought"?). Concept great, graphics great, but something is missing for me as audience, but then again, i'm over 30 years old game dev. =D keep up the good work, good stuff all around for this game, just not my personal play genre.
i give 5 stars! but listen... so much work in this game, but it still needs more playability content. Graphics are stunning for a simple kongregate game, thx for posting so early!
