I have been working on a game. IN SECRET.  It's a platform shooter, with random generated levels. Main info on THE JUSTICE JOURNAL, and updates will be there, too! I'll try to finish within the deadline, although it may be tricky, for me anyways. Horribly scaled screen shot, because LiveJournal is a jerk:  |

Looks cool, I had some great fun with Liero back in the day, so I'm looking forward to this.
One thing, don't let Benzido see that name or you're toast.

I think the VGNG has permanently changed this community.
FOR THE BETTER.

Well, the VGNG didn't actually make this title. The "Powerful Carnage Gunner" is because the acronym for it is PCG, and "Love Crusader" conveys deep and thoughtful meaning. I.E false advertising. EDIT: Journal update! On weapons! |

Thanks! Here's a demo. You can try out the weapons in the tutorial, and hear my attempt to do music! |

When trying to switch weapons, I get the error "Unknown variable weaponammo or array index out of bounds" and have to abort. Other than that, quite good. I'd make the tutorial guy's text larger and more contrasting with the background, and change the wall-jumping. It feels very counter-intuitive to press into the wall that you're jumping off. The general rule is that you push away from the wall you're jumping off. And fix that error quickly! I wanna try the other weapons!  |

Sorry about that. Demo is updated now. Get it here, or back there. Whatever. Also, the wall jumping is odd, but it's neccesary to have it that way to be able to tell the difference from a wall jump to a double/triple jump. It's not a very neccesary skill, also, so it's more of a useful technique to know, not a critically important ability. |

I still haven't tried the game, but PCG? Shouldn't it be PGC?  |

Procedural Content Generation! HA!
I also see PG and stuff, so whatever. It's close enough for me.

Yes! I see the weapons! Now I can die happy Seriously though, those weapons are great. You really nailed the fun physics of games like Liero and Nim 2, but with your own twist on it as well because the triple jumping and responsive controls make it a lot faster than Liero (as much as I can judge from just the tutorial, anyway). I noticed that if you jump directly above an enemy and shoot down, their physics get rather screwy, either freezing in midair or floating very slowly sideways. It's not a major problem and probably won't be seen too much in real gameplay, but I figured you should know. |
