Some new pic









The sound is almost finished  , i managed to use a stream technique
It have his flaws but it's the best i can do.
The saving system has been changed , now you can't save everywhere, the game auto-saves on some scenes only

After the sound , i pack up and send it to portal selling games.
Any help on those kind of sites ?

Anotherthing i want to ask
What soft to record a 2d flash game on screen properly ?
Fraps doesnt want to work and a lot of soft i used (camcorder? or something) give me a bad image and a bad FPS...
any help?

Can i turn a flash swf into an exe ?

So if someone still up here , i would love some answers to those questions if it's not too much to ask ?

[1. The mechanics are fun and feel fresh]

thanks very much dude !

1. The mechanics are fun and feel fresh
Thanks .

2. The art is like =/ and it's hard to tell what is what in the world, having a death hit box just be a red block thing is odd, same with a platform turning a unshaded/untextured yellow block.
The art yeah , well the Red killing boxes were very efficient to use because i could be able to modify their Dim in the game , it's a bit complex to explain but the red boxes are like the basic ennemy
There is other ennemies with another design

The lighted platforms , yeah i get it, the pure color is too much but it's easy to know what you have lighted up already.
I did this to have better performances too ingame .

3. The wall jump feels really hard to pull off and is the key to all my frustrations
That wall jump again, yeah other people told me the same .
I need to upload a video to show my wall jumps
I'll see if i can improve the move too.


4. the character animations are good =]
Thanks

5. Telling the player why they want to collect a collectible helps them know why they are trying to get them.

Okay , did you saw that screen for example ?


The infos panel ? If so , should i be more precise ?

Thanks anyway for the feedback dude , my bad for the mitakes done

A character from my game

African indie games.
Yes, PLEASE!


 

Lol thanks !

yeah i'll do my best reach the quality of great games !
So give it a fair chance.

Here is a pic of one of the mini games of the game (yeah the game will have minigames, new games + , like more than 25 achivements etc )

I got big problems
Devs a game can be a headache combo sometimes


But i hope get rid of that problem other than that no game for me
Anyway i'm still working on the beta
The problem of texts too long have been fixed , some background removed
Now Via pause the player can check the Playtime

Kinda useful since finishing the game with too much time prevents of the golden cup

A pic of the room of the lost heaven (hte icy room of the game)

Hey thanks a whole lot for trying the beta!

I'm wotrking on a new version
a lot ogf changes
The text are more speed now , they are 8 , 6 and 4 seconds display , before they were 12 , 8 and 6 .

So it's faster .

The text went off, i see what you mean , i fixed it.

Sorry for my bad english yes.

If you really want the text , i can work on that but they are a lot !
i'll see what i can bring to you

thanks again a lot.

Note:
The wall jump is hard yeah to get but once you learned it how to do in the training room then it will be easier like eating a pie!
You have just to get how to do it , don't panic , don't press the oppositie direction to wall jump, just stick with the same button.

The reworking of the beta will fix those things :

Some mini games are not avalaible , it will be fixed.
Some visual changes to increase the fluidity more
the score board should be fixed.
texts are faster now

The new link worked out ?

[I would like feedback first on the FPS , fluidity of the gameThe game is already fluid ? or unplayable?the game gets unplayable after a while ?]

The Beta is uploaded

http://www.4shared.com/rar/_shwM5Xd/star_and_light_beta_a_10.html


Notes :

Star and light is an adventure game created by Hermann kayode in 2012 (started in 2011)
The main purpose was to give to the player another kind of gameplay experience
Still a lot of classic thing are in the game (like ennemies , goals , collect etc)

Please give a try , check the beta and just try.

I need feedback for that long road i had.
The dev is not done since i have problems with sounds , so i removed all for the beta
Sorry , if you can't stand playing without sound , then don't play it because there is NO SOUNDS !
Thanks.

Easy notes:

Press U to reboot from everywhere (should work , if not tell me)
It's a flash game so no NEEDED INSTALL and you have to close the windows if everthing goes wrong
The game seems massive so please shutdown your other app when you play.(it's massive on my laptop so i dont know)
Everything is explained in the game , just read and follow instructions.

General :

The game features the system of deathlight puzzles : You have to Put in light platforms to win the stages and go to the next.

The game also have a story , i wrote everything ,i'm not english man so you'll see a lot of weirdness in the way of talking of heroes!
The story resolves around a girl living alone on a deserted earth...
One day her dead parents comes in front of her as ghost and tell her to enter the mysterious temple near from her home
The heroine will have the mission of saving a little girl wich entered the mysterious temple .
Some twists in the end and such.
Of course no need to follow the story, you can skipp sequences.


The game will features mini games in the temple:
Starscore mini game (avalaible in the beta)
Kanan & helena mini game (not avalaible)
etc
How to discover them ? by collecting some things in the temple !

You will ride some vehicles at some point too.

The heroine have two costumes in game !

There is hidden side quests in the game

The game features a more complete ending, you have to discover how to trigger it .

There is a new game + with new features to discover and new quests.

The game features 29 achivements with a score .
This part of the beta is not finished yet so you likely wll have always the same cup , the bronze one!
D'ont forget it's a beta so please, play just stress free

The game features the rewind system , so like explained further , you can go back to a previous scene by clicking on the arrow below in the center.The blue arrow near the stage name !

The game features randomized dropped thoughts of the heroine : Look under her avatar face in the left-top of the screen !
Sometimes it gives some clue on the current stage!

The game is globally easy , nothing hard when you know how to play it.

The actual game (the beta) don't have some mini games available , a glitch prevents this
i need to fix this right now


i have a lot of regrets on this project and i had to reduce a lot of thing ! so excuse me if the game seems strechted at some point.

To win the game , you have to play with a lot of strategies around jumping and double jumps
There is no acceleration button and shoot button
The solution is just in front of you, find the best way of lighting all platforms in one Way !
Try the Training room also.

Don't use or try to play the game like you were another popular one or i dont think it would work.

Sorry not images again , i'm just dead.
I need to go programm the sound and such and pray that everything will work

Hi Panda!
Wow congrats for the video
I hope you'll get the success on your youtube channel very fast

I have a question, why the sounds on some videos seems low ?
For example the anticlon video test
Too bad , we heard barely things you said

and i was hoping you were a red panda ...
i'm disappointed by your human hands dude.

The art is very cool

I especially loves the smoke in the bottom

Really awesome

I can't stop laughing at Allen's post

jesus woo

i have tears now

oh my god

i love the internets

Ah yeah ?

Didnt knew that

The closest thing like this i know is tinyeye , but tinyeye is still a different concept!

It's useless yeah probably but still amusing to see some big sites getting that bad review from the internet crowd

http://www.whatdoestheinternetthink.net/

It's a site where you put something and see what the internet thinks
If it's negative or positive

I stroke tigsource and found 100 % positive about it !!



It's crazy !! Congrats on guys here(unless it's another tigsource xd)

Facebook are positive
while neogaf is just negative
I tried some french site to check it but doesnt work, it's seems working only with US based site i think.

Nowaday i still can't check how it really works
I put my name on it and saw it was positive with some negative of course , but it was just my last name

I put bill gates and it was negative.
Deviantart is negative too while facebook reminds positive
I tried "Paul eres" but notyhing popped out , i'll try his evil twin later (Phil Fish)

Thanks a lot for the infos
2000 and 3000 are huge , it's really cool to see indie games sells like that
If the each piece price would have been like 15 dollars , then Champagne friend !

Congrats on the review and ign blog !

Nice one paul

How many did you sold ,
and what system did you used?

Did you sent your game to IGN , gametrailers , stuff like that to help the promotion ? Did it helped ? (i guess so )

really c ool character and art

Good luck for the game dude

Looks like a zelda clone/remake/retro to me

Nice one

The IA pattern is hard to Code ?
