CURRENT VERSION IS V1.10 Play it now at http://jinrohdev.tk/SchoolMaze

I made this game that was released this week! ^_^ As part of my New Years Resolution to finish some of my old unfinished projects.

I haven't posted here in a while so I thought I would share it with you guys since it's kinda like the subject matter here.

Anyway, the game's kinda like a dungeon crawler where you're a kid named Lil' Billy who ventures forth on his quest to find his missing homework. Along the way you have to navigate the school and negotiate with the dangers that are there. Like Cheerleaders, Football players, and the like. Throwing pudding and water balloons your only option to defeat them along with collecting money and using vending machines to get much needed equipment.

Follow Lil' Billy on his 5 level quest of excitement! ^^

That's the summation of the game right there. The current version is 1.9 and you can play it <<<<HERE>>>>



I never gave you guys any finished project so I thought I'd post it here. ^_^

Hope you like it.

That was damned difficult, but I managed to get through it after the tenth play.
Kudos on a nice game.

The graphics need a little more work..mainly its the tilefloor that gives me a headache because of the optical effects that happen when you put the pattern in motion. if it were just checkered and not the tiny squares, it would look better imho.

There is a collision detection glitch if you catch the corner of a locker and continue to press, your player avatar will disappear until you press a new direction.

I had some collision detection issues in a few places where I went right through the wall and got stuck, causing me to restart the game.

The music was sub-par, and too repetitive at times.

Final score: 4/10

I hope you don't take my post as insulting.
It takes a lot to make a great game.
The game design is great I think, just need to work more on the presentation. Keep up the good work.

Thanks for your comments and for playing it. ^_^

I'm definitely a better programmer than I am a game designer, but it didn't turn out too bad.

As mentioned by DeveloperX, I found the floor tiles to be a bit intense/distracting.

Thanks for playing Verious. ^_^ I'm thinking I'm gonna add a button to toggle the tiles to dithered to flat in the next release so we can have the best of both worlds. hehe.
