Title: They're Going to Blow up the Train! [Finished] Post by: pgil on April 04, 2009, 03:52:38 PM So... I decided to put my other entry on the back-burner so I wouldn't have to rush it for the compo deadline. I still wanted to have something done, though. Which brings me to...
(http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v89/smind/train_screenshot.png) This! (download for Windows) (http://www.willhostforfood.com/access.php?fileid=61197) (edit: just did a small update fixing a few stupid bugs..) Instructions: There's a bomb on the train! If it goes under 5 miles per hour, the conductor is done for! So what can you do?? Pick up coal from the back of the railcar, and bring it to the furnace in the front! You need to keep adding fuel to the furnace and keep the train going. But look out for banditos! And snakes! ..and remember... ...don't let the train go under 5 MPH! (and yes, I do consider this to be a cockpit.. I mean, you do control a vehicle.. sort of :shrug2: ) Title: Re: They're Going to Blow up the Train!

BTW my entry if I finish it will be in a train too :beer: Title: Re: They're Going to Blow up the Train! [Finished] Post by: György Straub on April 05, 2009, 12:28:42 AM (http://i474.photobucket.com/albums/rr106/zyndor/lolshit/Picture3.png)
well if it isn't the most avesome Keanu Reeves sprite I've ever seen. it's also the first one. Title: Re: They're Going to Blow up the Train! [Finished] Post by: pgil on April 05, 2009, 05:27:56 PM Who is this Keanu Reeves you speak of?? :blink:
Honestly, though, I didn't even realize the connection to Speed until I was about halfway through making the game. I originally wanted to have someone chasing the train, but I thought the bomb idea was funnier [size=6 pt](and easier)[/size] Has anyone tried the game? I'd like to make sure the gameplay is balanced, and that the difficulty level doesn't isn't too steep (or too slow...) Title: Re: They're Going to Blow up the Train!

but can I defuse the bomb or it's simply play til you die ? Title: Re: They're Going to Blow up the Train! [Finished] Post by: pgil on April 06, 2009, 05:43:46 AM Yeah, there's no way to actually "win". The object of the game is basically to get a high score. Although I didn't add online high scores or anything. I'll have to do it after the compo.

It's probably alpha related. "Pop quiz hotshot!" |
