Wallcraft Update
http://gamejolt.com/games/wallcraft/files/wallcraft/download/65/92/
Changed a couple things that some people in my web design class mentioned.
- Icons over buildings different colored to make it easier to tell them apart
- You can now pause by hitting escape
- Slightly changed the cloud sprite because it was bugging me.
- Fixed a glitch where holding both arrow keys down would make things move really fast.
- Magic has a little effect when it hits something and can also very slightly slow the wall.
The feedback was surprisingly good considering I didn’t even enjoy my own game all that much. People in my web design class gathered around my computer attempting to beat the high score of this one guy who somehow managed to get 2995 points. No one could beat it, and then he beat it again getting 3018 points.
And then, someone on Gamejolt rated my game 1 out of 5. Now, normally I wouldn’t mind (much), but whoever gave the rating didn’t leave a comment with it, which is fine with sites with thousands of people rating every day, but that 1 is my only rating so far, and he didn’t even bother to say why he so disliked my 2 days work.
Ok, mini rant done. He probably just thought it wasn’t fun, any way… isn’t that why you normally dislike a game?
Oh, am I supposed to say, like, “This patch should not be taken into account when voting yadda yadda yadda,” or something? If so, than the read inside the previous quotes.
Don’t sweat a single bad vote, people only really care about written comments/reviews anyway.
I noticed your description on Gamejolt assumes that people know what LD is, though. If you’re really bothered by it maybe you could update it to mention that the game was only made for a 48-hour compo.
