Hi everyone. Just wanted to post here a little independent puzzle game I worked on with my brother. It is completely for free, if anyone here would like to give it a try. For previous releases we also had this tradition of offering a "custom sprite" based on a picture of the player, to be included in the game, and we're gonna do it again but who knows for how long. Anyway, here are some screenshots.



Oh yeah, the game was finalist for IGF in 2008 Tongue. You can download the game at http://www.wind-water.net/ We'd love to hear feedback from fellow indies :D

nice! haven't tried it yet but the trailer looks pretty good and polished Smiley






well...is little ninja still in development?




oh and your new project looks interesting.





moreover:
it also would be nice if that wouldn't be your only post here Smiley
(some people have only 1-2 posts... they advertise their game and then *poof* gone... never to be seen again)
however you seem to be real and therefore consider to introduce yourself here Gentleman

Well, that was a huge disappointment; it doesn't run.

I mean, it doesn't even TRY to run. This is weird.

EDIT: OK, everything works fine, then. Please don't scare me like that!!!!  Cheesy
Any feedback will be greatly appreciated!


Well, that's unusual, we tested it thoroughly.

Thank you very much for reporting this. Could you tell me exactly what went wrong (installer did not work, the game installed but didn't run)? And what is your Windows version and language?

We're uploading a .zip file so that you can extract it and run the game directly without installing.

You can find it here: WindAndWater_PC.zip

It is currently uploading, so if it doesn't work right away give it some 15-20 minutes.

Again, thank you very much!

I can run it in 3x, but if I try 4x NOTHING happens when I press "play game" in the config utility.

I run Win7 in Norwegian, though I doubt that should matter Shrug
My screen is old as hell, though... That might be it Giggle

But, as I said, splendid game! I'll probably waste hours upon hours of precious time in it...

Having your very own sprite sounds really cool, but I'm afraid I don't have the coin at the moment  Sad

oh well...that happens when one has to many tabs open + copy pastes stuff.
*fixed* thanks for the hint Wink

->i was searching for an empty dvd cover template for the game dev resources list on pixelprospector. so devs can make something similar like locomalito if they want to.
(he made a nice printable cover for hydorah)

No prob, actually thanks for the link!

@Theon

4X didn't work because it exceeded your monitor's resolution!! Tongue If you'd like a custom avatar you might wanna check out a little contest we're holding to give out 5 full sets for free, right here

We hadn't really thought about 4X, we'll try to implement it. If you'd like a custom avatar you might wanna check out a little contest we're holding to give out 5 full sets for free, right here

I saw that, but I was unsure what exactly "5 full sets" mean^^; Can you get your own picture made into sprites if you win?

This game is quite cool and very polished!

I can't quite get the hang of it, but I've never been that great at comboing puzzle games and etc.

Still, a great style and fun gameplay. Everyone should check it out.

I would love to see a video of someone beating "The Metal Element" level. Because damn, it is hard as hell.

Holy crap you're already there?!  Shocked

Thank you for playing!!

When I get back home we might make a video of it Tongue

For emergencies, there's an item called "Cheese Victory" (buy the Cheese and press Start, then Q + Z in any Stage), although some gamers probably won't want to use it...

Yeah, it's quite fun! But this level really kicked it up a lot. I can't even clear half the required tiles before I get pressed.

EDIT: It seems like every time I make a big combo the press drops down and then immediately comes back up! WTF?! Shocked
