The game is about a yong cube named: Cubic. On one fateful day Cubic got separated from his home world. Now he has to gross several worlds to return.

The game was meant as a puzzle/platformer/rpg thingy. But 2 days was just to short to finish it, and I barely got any gameplay in the game.

The game is designed for 1080p and windows but will work on any resolution and OS, although that is untested. Anyway the game will run as long as you have opengl 3.

Furthermore the game is written in scala, I first wanted to use c++, but creating a game would take a bit longer so I went with scala. The library I used to create the game is the LWJGL, mainly utilizing opengl 3.

Also it last I want to warn everybody: The rendering is terribly inefficient, sorry, I just couldn't spend more time at the rendering code. So if you don't have a great PC there 'might' be some lag.

PS. Don't judge my code :P And enjoy! (for what it's worth O_O)

Your game has an awesome art style to it, really dig it.
I got quite a kick out of the "Sorry, no more gameplay". Had been really surprised by the seemingly massive amount of content from seeing the 3 worlds you had until that message popped up :)

Yeah sorry, I had planned to finish the fiery volcano with some levels, enemies and a leveling system. But it just was to much to create, the actual gameplay after the intro (the only volcano world level)was added 30 minutes before submitting.

Well...Game not finished..It's only an intro to a game..
Also I don't like very much the mix of graphics style, too much different stuff mixed up..

Nice game, I would like to see more!

To everyone who can't play it: sorry. Your pc probably doesn't (fully) support opengl 3.3 it might be fixable by updating your video card.

Doesn't appear to run on my Linux machine with OpenGL 3.3 support (NVidia GT 630M). Apparently my drivers don't support GLX_ARB_multisample.

All I get is a blue screen (not the windows blue screen of death)
Drew Van Camp25 Aug 2014, 16:49
Good work! Runs perfectly on my system. I would love to play this again if you add to it! The 2.5D style is cool, but would you consider a traditional 2D approach? I think it might look/feel even better if flattened, as odd as that might sound.

Maybe you and I could trade notes down the road; I've been working on a somewhat similar game outside of Ludum Dare. Look me up some time if you'd like to see it and should you ever continue your project.

Nice job considering the limited time frame!

Unfortunately I can't see the nerration cause it's off
screen and so I couldn't play it.
Also - it's kinda irretating how slow it types;
and that I have no control during that time.
Martins25 Aug 2014, 16:53
Doesnt work on my Win7: i can't see ground, can't see anything besides cubeman himself and portals and text.
Denisre325 Aug 2014, 17:00
The game doesn't run on my computer, it just shows an azure screen and nothing happens.

Works great, starts promising. Shame there's only the bigning. Keep up the good work :)

Feels Minecraft-ish. Feels unfinished. That's a shame.

Looks like 2D Minecraft. Good job.
kirbytails714 Sep 2014, 17:33
Works fine for me.
Learning how to scope well is tricky. Hopefully this has proven insightful for you.
Also, be sure to proof-read your text. I counted 8 mistakes in just the text you have. ;)

When I try to run it, everything my screen flashes to black, and then the application closes...I'm not sure why...

The game could be nice, but there is no gameplay implemented yet, keep working on it : D
also, you could set some music and maybe a button to run or something
