Hey, just wanted to show a game I’ve been working on over the past few weeks. It’s kind of BattleBlock Theater art-styled and it’s based around subways. Uses Slick2D by Kevin Glass, and the wonderful music of Kevin MacLeod! (thanks to both Kevins!)

WARNING: There are no levels past 1-1. Attempting to access an invalid level may crash the game! I’ve been more concerned about actual technical details of the game at the moment rather than level design. Try out the level editor! Framerate is locked at 125 if you’re wondering.

Level 1-1 (subject to change)

Level editor

Some details:
Controls: arrow keys, space to jump
Level editor: lclick to place, rclick to remove, middleclick to copy, lctrl for menu, hold tab for colours
The levels are block ids (not the greatest) stored with 3 more bytes of colour data. Potentially you could modify the level files to contain custom colours (RGB)

This is a good game so far, and surprisingly complete. I loved the menu, and most of the gameplay elements seemed to be working. I’ll waiting for some more levels though :point: I also tried out the level editor, but scrolling didn’t work when I tested it? Also, do guards just block you or are they supposed to move?

Anyways, good work so far; I’m expecting more good work to come.

(Love the music! Kevin Macleod is so awesome!)

Nice. Definitely getting some N+ vibes here. Also some jazzy ones too :wink:

The level editor shrinks/zooms the camera to fit the screen. Guards have no AI right now because there’s no way to fight them. Thanks for the review! :smiley:

Hey!
I just had a look at your game and it feels great !
I have one advice though. Your frame should be resizable (I suppose you have to do it now, before it’s too late, uh ? :persecutioncomplex:)
Continue and it will become something incredible ! :wink:
Good job ! 9/10
