Mini the Malism Potatoe Beetle

by adam4813

The goal is to collect all the potatoe points. Using the space bar to rotate the beetle platform when parallel to another rail. Only 1 level as time didn't allow for more.

*Note some issue still exist with rotating the platform and jumping to another rail. This is my first LD and with a family time was a pinch, but I got it done.*

I started playing the game and the beetle turn by it self, I didn't press any key.

Sorry forgot to mention it automatically moves forward. Your goal is to change rails to collect the potatoe points.

If i had had more time levels would have been more complex and included obstacles.

Weird game. wasn't sure exactly what type of control i had over the character.

Interesting concept. Are you supposed to be able to move through the blue walls, or is that a glitch?

The world definitely needs more games with potato beetle protagonists. Props for that.

Yeah, there are still some glitches, such as the arrow keys shouldn't work still as that was for testing purposes.

I plan to make a minor change to disable them and add an info scree showing the controls/gameplay.

Sadly I can't play it because it doesn't seem to be a Windows 32-bit version. :(

Controls are weird, but the idea is original :)

AHa now I see. I should have read the comments first.
It is a good idea and the munch sound is good and the graphics are OK too, but I don't think it is very clear?
Just like the other people said: it isn't clear how you control it.
I think I have to be attached to a rail, but by pushing keys a lot I can get into areas without rails?

I think you can expand on this, but first make it a bit more clear?
