Flower (Hiatus)

[Necrile]

Spoiler

Spoiler

Something terrible has happened to this world, but no one is alive to tell it's tale, except for one flower that has stored the soul of some young hero. You play as this hero, and try and revitalize the civilization that once was. When humanity perished, however, 3 factions rose in its place. A nether god (X'ilk), created from dark matter itself, commands the armys of blackness and nothingness. A blood god (Uburu), commander of the flesh and blood and remains of humans, morphed into something so vile, that it is hardly recognizable as once human. A skeletal god (Necrile), rose from the dead with human shape, but without human limits. These three gods pose a threat to you and your kingdom. Do you have the bravery to command a legendary army to victory, so that your civilization may live in peace?

I still dont get this, could you show more screens Necrile? (Or elaborate more on it) It sounds really interesting, and I want to see more before I download

 

[Necrile]

Done and done, moog. The game explains itself a bit at the intro (which is completely uncanon from the actual story), and feel free to ask if you still don't get it :P

Don't forget to send me your savefile :P you wouldn't want all that hard work to go to waste. Also, to everyone else, keep an eye out on my signature, it will notify you of major patch releases and news.

Game was somewhat fun, but having to hit enter over and over got sorta boring.  Overall it was good and entertaining, and I got a 3800some on my second game.  Had to close the first game for "undisclosed" reasons.

 

[Necrile]

Haha "undisclosed"? Anyway, its just a small technical demo. While the enter thing will not change, there will be far more alternative methods to pollenating the flowers, that will be less "boring". Also, since I said it on IRC, I figured I mineswell say it here: Patch 0.2 will include gardening. I'll leave it up to your imagination for now, but i'll disclose more information as I refine the system. Keep in mind this is only 0.1 right now.

 

[Necrile]

==================================================
                            Sneak Preview! (v0.2)
  Gardening! Expect to have fun starting your own gardens! As for
now, though, I must keep what gardening will be used for a secret.
Expect to see more of gardening's uses revealed in v0.3, but what you
will see in v0.2 is a working garden in a small map which you can mess
around in! Please note that completing the gardening map will add
1000 to your total score! Don't forget to try out this upcoming demo,
and check this thread often for updates!
===================================================

This actually looks like a neat idea for a cool little game. I'll give it a try later.

This is a very interesting concept. Anyway, I downloaded it earlier, and was very puzzled as of what to do. I finally figured it out eventually, and by the end of the first level I had around 700 pollen and had beaten it. (by the way, as previously mentioned, pressing "Enter" all the time got very tedious. Perhaps include an option such as "Use 1 pollen, Use 5 pollen, Use 10 pollen, Use all pollen" etc. Unless you have another idea for it) Also, I don't know if this is a bug or not, but after beating the first level it showed the arrows to advance on to the next level. But it wouldn't let me advance for some reason. I was there for at least ten minutes trying to go to the next level, when I just deleted the game. (kind of disappointing having to quit it, actually)

BTW, is this a bug or not-after beating the first level, it automatically closes the HUD. However, you can still use Q and W to change the HUD's opacity and show it again.

...Perhaps include an option such as "Use 1 pollen, Use 5 pollen, Use 10 pollen, Use all pollen" etc...

Kinda like a Runescape type of system?  Same reasons why Jagex did it, to delete repetition and time consumption.  This is definately something I look forward to seeing, something new and not like a classic RPG, it was sorta refreshing to read about this.  I'm sure your project will go far.

Thanks everyone for all your comments!
1. Yeah, in the demo you hafta press space while looking at it to move on, i know, its a pain in the ass, but I will fix that, for sure.
2. The reason the HUD closes after you beat a level is to give you a better look at your level, but you can still feel free to open it back up if you wish.
3. I can't disclose how it will be done, but there will be way more fun/efficient ways to pollenate your flowers, but if you wish to pollenate it yourself, it will only be 1 pollen at a time.
4. Please try to send me your savefiles when you are done! I'm sure you want everyone to admire your amazing scores :P
