@Urkel: This is a pretty interesting concept. I think a game like this would be fairly simple to make. I'm not even sure if much is needed along the lines of slices. Perhaps just a mouse cursor slice I'd assume. You can do all the animation/scenes by flipping through backdrop screens. The toughest p...

My game is... well, it's not finished, but if I trimmed out the handful of options that let you reach the beginnings of unfinished branches to its story it would definitely look a lot like a (fairly short) finished game. In other words: I had planned on three main branches that would each lead to t...

I miraculously completed something that is technically a game. You can't beat it, but you can shoot the Kraken, and even your own crew members. Here is the link so you don't have to leave the thread. I uh, I hopefully will fix this a bit later, but hey, I made it playable by the deadline, and that'...

@Foxely: Ahh yeah you're right. I'm sure it could be resolved but would add even more bulkiness to the script. Definitely go with Phoenix's.

Hehehe. I do like that better than Healtron. I think I'd personally call it Mend-droid as in to mend a wound and droid. Though I'm not sure if it's really that good.

My idea may also be a bit bulky but perhaps you could: -pull lever 1 which sets tag 11 on -pull lever 2, if tag 11 is on then turn on tag 12, else reset all tags and start again -pull lever 3, if tag 12 is on then turn on tag 13, else reset all tags and start again... etc... This would automatically...

Thanks. I pride myself on my pun-making and word play abilities. I try to come up with at least one pun a day. You can definitely use that to name your enemy if you want.

@Foxely: I think those spikes are a bit hard on the eyes. I suggest making them either a dimmer colour or just making them single large spikes rather than a set a four. Everything else looks very cool though, I'm really liking the graphics otherwise.

All I could think of when I saw that one was why is it not called Dino-Sour?

Gun pigs: Classic sheamkennedy aesthetic. But I couldn't really play it alone and see how it is. I'm not really sure how you're meant to dodge anything though, other than stepping off your side (which is penalty free). Took me a while to realise that this has tile-base movement, but I guess that wo...

I'm sure Noodle Within is far more substantive than the other two, so it doesn't qualify for a two minute review. But judging by the screenshots, it didn't get the memo about the 'shooter' theme. You had me worried that I missed a rule here. Hmm, maybe I should start my own contest which is strictl...

@Jack: Regarding what you said about the lack of need for more than 3-5 hearts. I think this depends on the type of game. The more intense the game is (as far as taking damage) the finer the scale of health should be to alleviate quickly dying. I think a way to more clearly outline where the players...

I think they're of decent size. Comparing it to some early zelda games I'd say your health graphics are smaller but in those same zelda games the hearts can divide in to half their size. Therefore I think it's okay. Perhaps what may be easier than redoing those graphics would be to make an indicator...

Crusty the pirate is a shooting game as well. You shoot at that frightening kraken I posted a few posts back. My will, how do I say.... be awful. But it has pirate puns so it's worth it. Haha, well I look forward to that too. I like a good pun. Every time I think up a pun I write it in my phone. Th...

Latest nightly not downloading properly...

I just tried to download the latest nightly (for Mac) like I usually would. Once downloaded I tried to open the .dmg and a window popped up saying the "image data is corrupted" thus it won't allow me to proceed. I figure it's best if I wait a day or so before attempting to download again b...
