The only thing is you'll have to use either Firefox or Chrome to play it. Internet Explorer won't run it. srsly

that works too, although it's slower and scaling to fullscreen isn't as smooth as chrome

More wordfilter confusion

the game works fine in opera, but the wordfilter changed the other posts in this thread to say chrome repeatedly

this looks really cool. i'll probably buy it after midterm week is over

question for yah: as somebody who has ridiculously high standards for videogames, do you feel like you could sympathize with developers of games that you didnt like because of how hard it was to do certain things? or did you feel more like you had the chance to make a game up to your standards?

My biggest problem was that I didn't set many goals during development and was just kind of "hey i'll add that, and this also sounds like a good idea, maybe i'll add that" and i just kept throwing stuff at the game until a couple of months ago when i decided to finalize the story and level progression.

What I made is a game I'd play and enjoy, but there are definitely things that could be improved. I realized that the hardest part of making games isn't actually making them, it's organizing your thoughts and ideas and remaining consistent.

that's interesting
well hey i'm looking forward to seeing more things from you. i think that it is good for a game developer to have started as a gamer with stupid high standards about games

Just hackers news, and they've given me loads of comments on suggestions that I'll use for a wider release.

I've made a few hundred dollars so far, but not too much considering the amount of time that went into it.
