Lady Bug 4k

Here is my entry. It is a remake of the clasic game LadyBug.

Hope you like it. Don’t let the bugs byte. :slight_smile:

Absolutely amazing! Its such a good clone. Wasn’t my fave game originally but amazing to see how much you’ve managed to cram in.

Great job!

What an impressive use of the MIDI Synth! I feel like I’m in the middle of a game of “The Weakest Link!”. ;D

That is truly excellent - I swear I just had a flash back - I feel all groovy now :slight_smile:

It’s actually frightening to think it’s only 4K excellent work.

Wow :slight_smile: Thats really neat. It’s just oozes with the kind of quality that makes me forget that it’s been written in 4k.

Great game! :smiley:

plays very good and has sound are u using the soundbank?

I am using the MidiSystem to play the sounds but I do not load a sound bank. I think the way it works is that if a soundbank is present it will use it. If not it will try the hardware synthsizer if your sound card has one. If not you will not hear any sound. I don’t know if this will be considered against the rules. I am guessing that all of the judges will most likely have a good sound card that supports the sounds even with out the soundbank. If any one knows let me know. If it is not allowed I guess I could take the sound out and add some other feature as the sound takes up a good bit of space.

I have the 1.4.2. SDK, 1.5 JRE and a decent sound card, but I can’t hear anything :S

Nice job, feels like a complete game. Sound works fine for me. I never played the original so theres no sentimental perspective for me in it. Good, complete game with sound and music. ;D

Thanks for all the positive comments. I have just updated the game to support “SPECIAL” If you eat the letters while they are red you can spell special for extra points. This was in the original game and I finally managed to squeeze it in. I also added support for a high score. Unfortunately no room to save high scores between sessions. Let me know what high scores you can get. I would also like to hear if it runs on a mac and linux.

If you don’t see the special in the top left corner try refreshing your webpage. My host does not support JNLP so I am faking the header with perl. But I can’t seem to get it to detect the out of date jar until the webpage is refreshed.
