You kill and use their corpses to get out of a box.

I KNOW this game, but I can't remember the name.

i dunno, there are plenty of prettier games from 1988 -- zelda 2 comes to mind. or battle chess (which had some amazing animations). also thunder force 2. and of course super mario bros 3. captain comic was kind of lo-fi even for 1988.

Man, I totally remember Battle Chess. That game was awesome back then.

@Melly so true! It's the headphones and the red nose...

Chevy should make a voxel game.

But that's just like 90% of his usual stuff.

A bit surprised this topic went unnoticed. This actually looks really interesting, though i don't tend to check Newgrounds much from lack of time. Maybe you could post interesting results of that here?

Voxel Music Man kinda reminds me of Chevy.

So you hang with Derek, eh?

Got any stories?

It's a little sad I guess, but a good first visual impression is often important. Screenshots and videos of a game are usually the very first thing people see before they even start considering trying a demo. If there was a good way to give a first impression focused more on gameplay...

Dragonmaw, you haven't answered my e-mail about creating exclusive games for you in return to your undying love.

I kinda like Hangedman's idea.

Are there any plans to release it on the internet, outside of exibitions?

It does look like an interesting game. I imagine this stuff looked amazing for the time.

Oh, here's one: All of the Star Wars films are massively over-rated. They're worth a watch if they're on TV on a Sunday afternoon and you've got nothing else to do, but that's about it. The hate for Episodes I and III seems to come from the people who have convinced themselves that IV-VI are better films. They're not. They're all about the same, mediocre fantasy films for kids. Episode II is genuinely bad, though. I understand why that one gets so much stick.

The original Star Wars movies were very impressive for the time, and I think they came around a time in which stuff like them was very much welcome to the public (and sci-fi in general seemed to be a lot more of the cheesy variety). A lot of people have great affection for them, and even watching them today they will still see them as superior to the new ones for various reasons, mostly because of nostalgia.

The new movies aren't that different from the old ones. Sure, I too hate Hayden Christensen's acting in 2 and 3, I'm not fan of Jar Jar Binks myself, and the reasoning for Darth Vader turning to the dark side has to be one of the most retarded things I've seen in a movie script. Those three things aren't enough to set the movies so far apart from the originals that they can be considered polar opposites in terms of quality, though.

I've never seen this game. Can you tell more about it?

I haven't received a word of answer.

Everybody start sending PM's to Derek about the compo now. E-mails work too, probably even better.

Keep them loving.

Which game did you make?

Aquin 

I second that.

Hell if I know. I'm gonna go annoy Derek a bit, see what happens.

I was thinking of a sort of Game Maker style program, focused entirely on voxels.

New one: four warriors, four colors

Castle Crashers and/or TMNT

Castle Crashers, specifically, but it's a more common thing than I thought.

Got two still unanswered:

Description: A road trip with hover cars and you find blind bikers

Description: Has a purple fire level where you fight the same mid-boss 5 times.

New one: four warriors, four colors
