Title: Slug League [FINISHED] Post by: evktalo on February 26, 2011, 11:22:59 AM (http://www.student.oulu.fi/~einokesk/slug/slug_screenie_menu.png)
(http://www.student.oulu.fi/~einokesk/slug/slug_screenie_play.png) A game of reflexes and tactics - zip here (http://www.student.oulu.fi/~einokesk/slug/slug_league.zip) - tested in Windows XP and Vista. Also tested in Wine, where it sort of works - there was a strange delay in the menus, and the gameplay was a bit ...sluggy. But playableish. Credits:
Have fun! --Eino Title: Re: Slug League [FINISHED] Post by: tzachs on March 18, 2011, 03:26:34 PM Very simple, but very fun, and those slugs are cute!
Some small touches really helped to bring this game to life: - the drums sfx when you hit the balls :handthumbsupL: - the speed sliders that gives you some tactics choices :handthumbsupL: - the story which made me laugh... :handthumbsupL: Lots of options to extend this game in future versions, like more players on each team, obstacles on the field, etc. Title: Re: Slug League [FINISHED] Post by: evktalo on March 28, 2011, 11:23:19 AM Many thanks for your feedback, tzachs! Glad you found the game fun!
Regarding additional features.. a simple game like this inspires many ideas easily, but when the game feels good with a small feature set, you must be careful when introducing new stuff. :) Jarkko in particular feels that this version is finished as it is, and a sequel will be sort of its own game.. anyway, I'm thinking that workable new features would include different playing fields (other shapes, perhaps obstacles, even moving ones); and three or four teams (with three/four goals) and appropriate field shapes for them. cheers! --Eino |
