LÖVE

I played the level yesterday, and I really loved it. I hope you finish this game. The concept is VERY good and original, the characters are very cool and well designed (although I don't really like their "big" versions, when choosing clothes), and most of the basic game engine looks finished. Some music and sound effects would make a big difference for the next demo.

My best wishes for this project.

The idea was to give him something, the beetles can cover short distances quickly, in your "window", in limited circumstances.

Development has been a bit slow lately but we're finally back with an update.
Here's what's happened since last time:

  • Added "Sound options" menu which allows you to set music and sound volume independently
  [ Map editor ]
  A lot of the time has been spent working on a map editor. It's pretty horrible but it sort of get's the job done.

You can disable the FoW (but it's cheating. ) by pressing F5. Don't know if that makes the game playable.

Other controls can also be found in the README.

This looks really great so far. Keep up the good work.

I couldn't find (albeit I also didn't look that hard) the map editor on the GitHub. Was just wondering what GUI library you used.

The map editor is made using Java and Swing. And God, do I despise it.

The editor is on a separate repository. And it's the most horrible code ever conceived.
