omega120 games

I seem to babble too much on my games in the code for beginners thread so I have created this thread if I am allowed to discuss any coding regarding to my games I hope everyone will join in.

Just played Manky a bit, and it is just that, manky.
The controls are really bad which contibutes to the game being as hard as it is. Also boo for stealing graphics from other game. The main problem here is that the game while being hard is not addictive in the least. There is nothing that drives the player to get to the toilet, or at least that's how I felt.

The game supposed to be `manky`as you say, about me stealing graphics what would that be?

Quote: You're doing a great job, omega120. Manky is nothing short of brilliant. I'd reverse the controls if I were to improve it tho since it's still way too easy in it's current state IMHO (Check the game "Percy" to get the idea!). Also, I suggest you to let the whole game play in one room simply to build a claustrophobic tension movies like "The Assault", "The Thing" and "Das Boot" evoke.

The only thing left to do then is to make your game known. Put some links in the usual forums, a little ad here, a little ad there and people will be talking about your jewel in no time.

This could have been a real classic in the 80s.

Honest regards,
Linus


I like your attitude towards `Manky` though everything you said has come true or I am just dreaming?

How about enemies from Manic Miner for example?

Ah yes, i noticed that too but it slipped my mind to be honest; the sort of clockwork thingy from the first screen of Manic Miner. Really it could do with a graphical overhaul anyway, new sprites and backgrounds...

It could do with an overhaul as far as gameplay goes as well. Just played some Cyberwing and Reaxion btw, good stuff, tho Cyberwing is a bit too oldschool for me as far as shooters go (Manic Shmups fan).
