My first game release

[AcneVulgaris]

Hi all.  I've been working on a little game that has physics inspired by BZ2....and it's finally ready to show the world.

Please check out http://slackerrevolution.com/PicklePanic, and let me know what you think.

Thanks!

That was... Interesting.

[Steeveeo]

needs to not hide my cursor, it was a pain in the ass to close the window...

[Nielk1]

I don't think that was his fault though.

Same here.

[bigbadbogie]

...wow ... um... well......what can i say??

10/10 for originality i suppose.. hmm

[lucky_foot]

Extremely unique. I had fun.

The only thing I notice is that when it hides my mouse in Firefox, after I get rid of the window, it still won't allow me to have my mouse back until I shut down firefox completely and start it again.

Besides that, It was cool.

[Red Devil]

It kilt my FF browser.

[AcneVulgaris]

Thanks for the feedback guys.

That cursor thing has been bedeviling me...I thought I had it locked down.  This version of the unity engine only makes web packages for windows.

The safest bet is to go into settings and go fullscreen until you're done playing...then alt-f4 to close the browser.  I may look into having it just go full screen and stay there on launch, but that seemed a little rude...less rude than an invisible cursor, I suppose.

Red:  Did you try it more than once?  Did you get to play at all or did it crash at the menu?

[VSMIT]

It was unique.  Very unique.  But I couldn't really play it because I wasn't really getting anything over 5 FPS.

That's my computer, I suppose...

VSMIT.

[Red Devil]

Trying it agin.  It says, "Press yout Home key to activate the menu"

[Red Devil]

How do you go fullscreen?

Duh, got it.

[Red Devil]

Got the same error the second time, but then it ran fine in subsequent attempts.

I got down to 1 pickle.  Pickle Mas-tah

[Warfreak]

Them some tough pickles. 

Well, jsut leting you know that the player's pickle really feels like a BZ tank. Nice work....

[Steeveeo]

I basically kamekazid a pickle and died (I charged it, it blew up, and the game ended because I had -7479 health )

Yout got a problem with that, Pickle Mastah? 

You are but a pickle padewan, anyhow...to win the game, you must destroy all the pickles and keep all 3 peaches alive.  I've done it, so I know it's possible.  If you succeed, you will get a pass code on the game over screen. When you post the pass code here, all will know you have ascended to the rank of Pickle Mastah!

I have a new version up...there was a problem where it wouldn't save your mouse settings from game to game.  I also set the default mouse mode to inverted, as that seems the most popular...can be changed in settings.

If you're getting a low frame rate, I suggest going into settings and selecting a low resolution.  This will put you in full screen mode, which also helps.  I have been able to get about 15fps on an old g4 mac mini with a legendarily sucky graphics chipset...if you have anything less than that, I'm sorry, i just cant' help you

I've got an intermittant crash bug that appears to have to do with playing sounds....when you fire the gun.  Appears to happen only near the start of the game...if anybody observes it later on, I'd like to know about it.

I basically kamekazid a pickle and died (I charged it, it blew up, and the game ended because I had -7479 health )

Gotta be careful...them pickles blows up hard....especially if you shoot a bunch of them weak.  When one finally goes, it can start a massive chain reaction that can kill you and/or blast your peach out into deep water.
