OHMYGODI'MSOFASTICAN'TSEEWHEREI'MGOING

HOLY **** JESUS CHRIST I'M BLIND but I have a HUEG hammer to make up for it!

(Shift toggles minimap, Ctrl pinpoints location, Space simulates pain and eventually death, everything else is explained in game)

I love it Tri. Hammer is awesome.

And great use of extra space!

I like the idea, technical execution not so much.
Collision with ceilings is buggy, or non-existant.
With many objects on screen, the game lags.

SUPER UPDATE

Contrulz:
Z - Primary action/movement action.
Z + down - Salamander Kick from a standstill on the ground, Eagle Dive in the air.
X (+ left, + right) - Hammer, press left or right to control knockback.
X + up (in air) - Hammerjump.
Run + down - An improvised Running Salamander Kick. Useful for sliding through gaps but also maintaining speed.

Environment explanation:
- The water level stays constant throughout the level. It can be regulated with the green water switches.
- Slopes are still a bit buggy, but work 95%.
- Bricks can be destroyed with Salamander Kicks, Eagle Dives and hammerings all alike.
- White or 'trap' blocks will send you flying into the air (much like Sonic's springs), and will remain visible once activated.

All that being said, HAVE FUNNNN

^.^ This was really well done! Controlling the hammer was smooth-as-silk, the character's special moves were MAD COOL YO and I loved the water-level puzzleness. Also, I really like the sprite for the main character. Forgive my ignorance, but he is an original, correct?

GOOD GOD TRI!

Its people like you who inspire me to make games, and then totally OWN the games I make!

People on my list of awesome indie game creation: Tri and Konjak

EDIT: Forgot to mention that the slopes are a tiny bit glitchy.

Yep!

Also thanks everyone, I feel so flattered C:>

Only problem I seem to be having is that the game lags seemingly because of the huge mo-fo-ing water object. And I have a pretty fast computer, so...

I don't know how you'd fix this though. D:

Works fine with me. I think it just might be something about your computer, 2D actions in Game Maker shouldnt naturally be laggy. At all.

>.< GAWSH DARN IT

I don't know what the problem could be, this is a brand new computer I have here, and when I run a MMF2 app with huge objects or transparency I have no issue.

Run a GM app with the same things, and it lags.

YOUR GAMES DESERVE BETTER THAN THIS

>huge water object

Actually I don't think it's the size of the object, since it's 400x240 (it sticks to the view -- press shift to see what I mean).

It MIGHT be the massiveness of the room, or the fact that the game starts on a high priority setting. You can change this through task manager.


OR the large amount of objects present in the room. Not sure. Probably a combo of all three just CRASHIN' DOWN on yer poor ol' machine.

Ooh, that's a smart idea for rising water. :o

Anyway, I'll check this out...

right, there are some things that needs some adjustments in this

first of all, I know the intention is to run fast, but he runs way too fast. There should be a difference between how fast he actually runs, and how fast it may seem he runs.

The hammer needs to feel big and thus you added the backwards push. But the push is overdone, tone it down a bit. And the spin hammer is used for a second jump, I'm sure there are other ways to achieve this other than throwing around with your sword? Atleast, that'd make more sense.

I really liked the sudden slide he did when there was a small entrance. Top notch!

The game played good, but I kept getting stuck in the ground.
