INFORMATION ----------- -If the game crashes at the level selection, try enabling Windows Media Player at "Control Panel \ Programs \ Programs and Features \ Turn windows features on or off \ Media Features \ Windows Media Player" -If you download the ClickOnce version, extract the .zip! -----------
In Juggle, you only get one platform to guide your character through each level. You have to control both of them at the same time using the keyboard.
Controls:
~ You control your character with the arrow keys, jumping with the up arrow key/space bar and falling quicker with the down arrow key.
~ The platform can be controlled using the WASD keys.
I couldn't run the game because XNA redist was not installed on my computer but once installed,I really liked it! nice concept, maybe a bit hard from the beginning, but I'd keep it on my computer for spare times!
I'm having some issues. I downloaded the .zip version, and I manage to run the submission. However, whenever I select a world (any of the three worlds) then game crashes. Any ideas what might be wrong there?
I am not too sure about why the game would be crashing when you select a level, have you tried both versions of the game? I'm not very experienced with XNA or C# yet, sorry :(. Thank you for the feedback, everyone!
This game is evil. I had fun! I would've liked it better if the sideways blocks wouldn't outright kill you, just push you off. Imagine the jumping madness...
Yeah, I tried the installer too, same issue there :| Is there any specific version of .NET or XNA that I need? I recall having it installed, but maybe it is as simple as a version mismatch.
Apparently the ClickOnce version should install the required versions of .NET and XNA if you run the setup.exe. Have you extracted the .zip containing the setup.exe and Juggle.application before running them? If so, I honestly don't have a clue, sorry :(.
Yeah. Since you attached the pdb-file, I did try to debug the application. It gave me "InvalidOperationUnhandled" and "Song playback failed", and it shows the issue is in "Juggler.Game1.StartGame()". By the way, I have Windows 8. Maybe that is causing some issues?
No note because i can not play with it, the game crash at the difficulty selection :( But the game idea is interesting and the screenshots look nice! I hope to see at least a video review before the end of the votes!
Pretty fun, but also pretty difficult, I think it could use a somewhat slower start to get you used to it, maybe an easy level to beat to get the player's spitit up befor throwing him/her into the nightmare ;) I kept thinking to myself: "Just one more try, I should be able to do this!" Longest time I've been able to go was 85 seconds on the first level.
This is fiendishly difficult, given how disorienting it is to have to coordinate two objects with eight keys. An interesting platforming mechanic, though.
Funnily, I actually found insanity reasonably straightforward compared to the other two, just because I have less to worry about. On the other two modes I was mostly just moving my platform and not my man.
Woah.. too much for my brain. I kept confusing WASD and the arrow keys and ended up falling from the platform without any actual danger. Nice entry overall, quite innovative gameplay and I like what you did with the three different levels. The menu was kind of cool as well.

"Control Panel \ Programs \ Programs and Features \ Turn windows features on or off \ Media Features \ Windows Media Player"

Really fun game, I love multitasking games.
Nice one.
