sackaliens from outer space!!

Archive: 14 posts


In sackaliens from outer space!! you take the role of the sackaliens in this fun arcade shooter style of game. Just destroy as many buildings and abduct as many sackfolks as you can before time runs out. Careful, because your rivals aliens wants to take you out so they can destroy the city themselfs. Please review it and let me know what you think, this is my first level so ill be apriciated.

One thing that may help you is to post some pics of your level. If the pictures look great, then it's a good bet your level will get queued up by people browsing levels. It sounds fun, I'll give it a try the next time I'm in LBP.

Thanks

I have made time to play this level because it sounds so cool. I think it is great but it has only a few flaws...

1.It needs control instructions(I had to mash the controller until I worked them out!)
2.I would use a joystick rotator rather than shoot in all directions but thats just me : )

Great level, looking forward to future updates! That's if there are any planned of course!

anymore sugestions on improving the level?

Sure! I should start by saying well done on your first level. I found this level to be fun. It was nice that you give the player more to do than simply abducting people. I liked the old school retro look of the flying saucers. I also liked that you had more than one firing option. Some suggestions I have are:

- If you have some thermometer left, make some details in the level. Add some trees, or anything really. Also, I thought the road could use some work.
- I was confused as to why I had to shoot other aliens. After reading the description again I realize they are my 'rivals'. I just thought it would make better sense if they were fighter jets rather than 'rival' saucers.

Some things to ponder:
- After blowing up buildings I saw that some still had a couple walls left standing. I thought that was cool, but what if you could make them be on fire?
- Since I played it yesterday I'm having a hard time remembering if you had a lot of sounds. If you don't have sounds like, people screaming as you approach and a hum of the UFO engines, I would consider adding them.

Overall I thought it was fun. I'm sure it would be more fun if I had played it with other people. Congrats on your first creation! Keep it up

to tell you the truth i did though of doing jets instead of rivals but i couldnt get them to face the saucer. they always kept spining out of control like drunk pilots lol . i was thinking of making a sequel and a versus level of the same theme. thanx a lot for the suggestions!

I just tried it and to be honest I didn't think it was magnificent. It definetly needs some major work.

Here's a List:

-Needs instructions on how to play
-Needs better lightning
-Area feels too unrealistic, it doesn't look like a city, lacks detail you know?
-Controls just weren't there. I'd suggest making it a thumbstick shooter instead. Use a "Joystick rotator" on your controllinator and attach your joystick to an emitter as well so that it shoots out lasers from whereever your aiming your right joystick.
-Camera angles made it difficult to see where to go. Needs to be zoomed out more. Most of the screen is showing your UFO
-Perhaps make it a versus game? I wasn't sure what it was, survival or score challenge or something im still unsure. Make it a versus game where players destroy eachother with UFO's and get extra points by abducting sack people lol
-Needs better sound effects, it seemed to lack sound

For now I'm sorry to say I had to give it a frowny face, but improve it and perhaps I'll upgrade it to a big ole "YAY!"
