An infinite runner type game with a simple visual style and two-button input. Still a little buggy following the appearance of a new collision bug right at the end of the competition, and with the occasional graphical error, but otherwise a happy beginning to my time with modern OpenGL!
Controls: Z - Jump / X - Shoot / I - INVINCIBILITY (so that the new collision bug doesn't stop you from judging the game based on what's actually there)
NOTES: - I've been told it's not working very well in Firefox and Chrome...I can't reproduce these problems at home, so hopefully the upload to Kongregate made things a little more reliable... - Restarting the game doesn't work right - a refresh is a better bet - Recommend turning on invincibility right away and playing 'til you've seen all you need to see. The collision bug can cause death upon landing from the smallest possible jumps...
Hmm...I'm having no issues in Chrome or IE, but I do see the issue on Firefox. I'm hoping that hosting it on Kongregate fixes this - thanks for letting me know, guys - check back soon for a (hopefully) fixed version :)
After dying one time, the player barely moves ahead. Tried invincibility once, which worked as expected, but when I restarted the game, I spawned into the same place as before.
These problems combined with the very slow refresh (accept java + download of lwjgl+slick each time) makes for a less than stellar experience unfortunately.
I only saw a blank white page at kongregate under Chrome (after giving it over a minute to load and tried refreshing the page also), and the downloaded jar doesn't appear to do anything when launched - no window appears, no error message, etc. (Windows 7 64bit)
the gameplay is fun but there doesn't seem to be any consequence of getting hit by enemy bullets. Movement is weird , many times i rode through platforms like i was on an invisible escalator, but that was actually kinda cool looking so yeah.
