Bubo 4k

Contests 4K Game Competition - 2012

I think this was made as a Flash game first, not sure where I found it though. This 4k remake is a good idea!

If you have some bytes left I would suggest to improve the “feeling of satisfaction” when making balls explode. I think most of this game’s interest lie on this stupid “click and watch” thing, it’s a bit like when playing with bubble wrap =D At least the first levels should be really easy (and by easy, I mean hundreds of bubbles :P), it would also help people unterstand the rules - or at least having fun clicking everywhere.

I guess you could improve the feeling of the game with nicer balls (by giving them a more 3D’y look?), more spectacular explosions (more particles? shock waves?), and why not sound improvements, like a “blowing balloon” sound when balls grow - not sure if it’s easily done with procedural sound though ^^

@jimeowan
Unfortunately no bytes left for now. let’s see if I can cut something first. the suggestions are great.

@toasten
still can’t figure out. did you reload the page so many times?

To all who has game froze, please try again this time. Hope no more like that :slight_smile:

Hi,

no reloading. Just (re)played it. First 4k game for today. Dont know how long it took this Time. But Error was the same :smiley:

#44

For nut case’s sake, wth going on with my code??? ;D 11 days left to fix it.

#45

worked great for me, loved it
later its like epic space combat explosion… stuff

you gotta reload for a different mode, that sucks
the sounds are cool, little scary at first but later it sounds like fireworks

didnt run into memory error, but I did reload and didnt play more then 5 minutes without reloading

#46

Ok small fix. I’m blaming audio part for memory error. Now the sound is little slow at first time but not later (cached). Please try again, especially you toasten :wink:

I’ll add a way to go back to the menu when gifted by free time.

#47

For the first time you play a sound, you can do it at startup with volume set to 0. Then first “heard” sound should be fine.

#48

Finished the game on Fate Mode, got no memory crash but the message : “CONGRATS! YOU WIN WITH SCORE 77233”. I had to restart level 20 10 or 12 times, about the same number of tries as during my former play that crashed in last january.

I also wanted to suggest you to replace the colored squares of your title, by discs ! But if it becomes unreadable, then just keep the squares.

Thanks. Lol, by circle you mean? let’s see…
