Talking about Flash, Game development and Links.
This was a great week for Flash gamers, here it is a list of really really great games.
The best picks so far, in my opinion. You’ll really enjoy these ones.
B.C. Bow Contest: Great bow game with a prehistoric theme… win all tournaments using several kinds of arrows
What I liked: Everything, great Nitrome game, as usual
Programming difficulty: The hardest part is the physics behind arrows… 3/5
Cannon Bods 2009: Kill parachuting pirates with your Bod, using one or more cannons
What I liked: it’s a funny game…
Programming difficulty: I think there is a glitch if you shoot too close to a pirate, your Bod won’t hit him… :( 1/5
Dawn of the Bod 2009: Bods return in this horror game… kill all Bods shooting at their heads
What I liked: finally a cute splatter game
Programming difficulty: just some hit tests. 1/5
Wake Up the Box: Great physics game… wake up a sleeping box in this puzzle game
What I liked: Great concept… really nice
Programming difficulty: physics joints aren’t programmer’s best friends… 4/5
Night Balloons: Catch the balloons with your hook without popping them, don’t kill butterflies.
What I liked: A game with balloons, and you don’t have to pop them…
Programming difficulty: see something similar here. 2/5
Helio Adventures Reloaded: Sequel of Helio Adventures already featured on Triqui’s Picks #1.
What I liked: the graphics and the level design
Programming difficulty: Not that harder than the original… just a couple of new features like fans 2/5
Galaxy Wars: for the Sake of the Universe: Really interesting space adventure claiming “a unique control scheme that puts a new spin on a classic genre”, but you can see the concept in Build a game like Sproing with Flash.
What I liked: The graphics!!!!!!!!
Programming difficulty: Not that hard, not that unique… 3/5
See you next week
