Skirmish in the South Pole to secure supremacy of the snowy slopes!! With Snowballs. And Penguins. And an Eskimo. You WANT! http://i600.photobucket.com/albums/tt82/rtm223/Penguin%20Turf%20War/APhoto_3.jpg I've already got a project thread on this, but decided I'd post the demo in the showcase to see if I can get a little more feedback as I really need to know how the game plays. I'm not using F4F on this one, as in just over a week I'm moving abroad, so making commitments of my time is a little bit foolish right now, but if you give me some decent detailed feedback it won't be forgotten and I'll be sure to return the favour in a month or so (or when you have something published) http://i600.photobucket.com/albums/tt82/rtm223/Penguin%20Turf%20War/APhoto_1.jpg http://lbp.me/v/wqt8d8

Well I queued it but you'll have to wait until Tuesday when I finally get the game. Peace!

Looks cool, you still didn't get the prompts fixed? You could always use custom holo prompts. Anyway, im going to check it out.

Looks cool, you still didn't get the prompts fixed? Hacked it for now. I don't actually need the context switches yet and it was more important to have a bit of a cue on screen (for stuff like double jumping and that you have aim and fire controls). Combos aren't working in the current uploaded version btw - I have it fixed at my end, but it requires a good amount of copy / pasting and tweaking of tag colours to get it working for all 4 players Will have to wait for a couple of days before I'll have time It means it is a Vs level. More specifically, it's a deathmatch level, so without opponents all you can do is throw snowballs at the walls and collect power-ups... Which is less fun (trust me, it's what most of my testing involves...) edit: actually, if you wanna try it 1 player you can still get a feel for the control mechanics.. I'm a bit iffy on the jumping atm, so extra opinions on that would be good.

it was pretty awesome. different than i expected, and it was nice to see an epic snowball & vs level to preempt the impending flood of mindless grabbinator + white sponge & default creatinator + bounce pad vs levels. What I liked most was the care you put in to making it behave as it should... natural trajectory, arc, speed & weight.. colliding snowballs... waddling movement & that awesome belly flop that penguins really would do. I did a double take when i noticed it. I really sucked at my match with Yarudark, but I can see the balance & potential for mastery it has. Great job with the fast rebuild too.

Cheers, a lot of the details were things that happened semi by accident, the waddling and the falling over stuff started as accidents that were then tuned up for extra comic value - the main thing I like about the new logic is the refinement that's possible and how quickly you can refine things. I'm hoping I can get the belly flop worked in at some point with some ice slides that you can deliberately use to move around quickly. I tried this in the beta and it didn't quite work, but I may have found something last night that will make it look right. I'm hoping a lot of the negative comments are from people that assume that a cute penguin snowball fight would be very simple to play, but realistically I want to get the depth in there to reward repeat players. Once I have time to add a tutorial I hope some of the depth will shine through more clearly Thanks for playing and for the compliments, if you have any criticisms too then I'd love to hear them!

...Wow. Looks awesome! I am definitely going to play this when I go on LBP2 later today. Wait 'til my friend hears about this...
