Well done! I saw the original game and was pissed off with the guy for not finishing it.
While, as you say, its still a beta, its still fantastic. once you smooth over some of the animations, it'll be a great game, and a fantastic one for your first go =) so give youself a huge pat on the back and a cookie cause you deserve it, well done
Bugs kill it, level 9 is a bitch, you need to have the car hit the wall at just the right angle, its stupid.
the really long restart sucks, instant would be much better. the inability to deselect a part needs to be addressed. the work area needs to be looked at again, the number of levels where you really need to move the part right to the edge of the construction area is rediculous
all in all, good potential but needs to be looked at again to be great
Great to see what talent people have out there! Well done to everyone.
@ TheModestSpy: You are a rascist tool, you know that? Im pretty sure you are the ONLY person who saw this in a rascist context, which makes me think you are inclined to see racial issues where there are none! Who's the rascist now? I mean, who would the green shapes (SHAPES, mind you, not people... where the hell did you get people?) represent?
You are a huge tool, seriously. Keep your personal views to yourself, and stop being a do-gooder, cause you aren't doing anything other than spreading negative sentiment!
While the graphics certainly werent like Tarboy, the essence of the piece was the same. My jaw was glued to the floor the entire time and the entire movie I was thinking "HOLY CRAP WHAT A TROOPER!"
Anyway, the only tiny criticism i have isnt really such, but something about the graphics was a little off, i cant quite put my finger on it... maybe a hint too simplistic? i dont know... given, that was the beginning of the movie so im sure your skills improved since then.
so, 10/10, 5/5 Give the Tarboy team a run for their money! =P
quite frankly, great concept, i love beat games, but im not sure if it was because the guy kept stumbling which caused him to miss subsequent beats, because the hit box is too narrow, or because of lag. im using a very high end laptop and it still screwed up... just made the game unplayable for me and really not enjoyable.
so, 10/10 for the idea and effort, 2/10 for the execution... keep trying though
When you destroy the last ship in the game, it only gives you a few moments to collect whatever loot is in the water
basically, this is rarely enough time to pick up the loot... seems like a waste
also, ill second the comments made about the levels where its you vs 6 or so ships... just a bit too hard, especially with no health pickups etc (which, at least in arcade mode, may be a good idea)
lastly, the defense and reload speed crewmen dont feel like they make a difference... MAYBE defense makes you a little more resilient, but reload feels like it gives more damage (maybe, didnt test it) rather than faster reload speed, which, personally, i would prefer to higher damage.
anyway, otherwise, fantastic game. maybe next version could have different types of ships, weapons upgrades, maybe special abilities etc. good work
so i clicked easy cause i wanted a quick trial of the game before i play it tonight...
and i died because 3 soldiers were shotting at me and only the 105mm cannon could kill them... barely...
and of course like youve heard the weapons require alot of debugging... the 40mm actually has a much higher refire rate than what you have in this game
also, the weapons fire sounds could be improved...
not a bad game, but gets boring quickly
i second the comments made about multiple cannon locations being a bother
also, the main menu with the levels was a bit confusing...
however, the music was fantastic, what's it called?
i got to level 54 or so, was promoted to major, and after i bought the heavy assault cannon and an upgrade point for getting major, the game said game over?
the score had been floating between 5 and minus 3 for a while now... i figured it was a minor bug... but when it says you've died for no reason?
anyway, i would have given 10, but because of the bug i can only give 8

some silly design choices

um...
so... you basically copied the comercial exactly except for the humourous exaggeration of the teacher when she looked at the dad...
um... well... nice-ish art, 0 for originality/creativity... but, hey, at least you are promoting Australia day...

Very fun game, but bugged?
i got to level 54 or so, was promoted to major, and after i bought the heavy assault cannon and an upgrade point for getting major, the game said game over?
the score had been floating between 5 and minus 3 for a while now... i figured it was a minor bug... but when it says you've died for no reason?

nonetheless, well done
