Really cool concept that worked really well.
Very impressive that you managed to polish it this much and make multiple interesting levels with different build types in such short time.
Only feedback would be that it felt a bit that you could "spam" yourself to level completion since you had so many pegs, and it was a bit hard to plan since it could shoot from multiple directions. But I think that also makes it a bit fun and chaotic! :D
Nice to see another peggle game that was so different from ours.
Thanks for the kind review! Yeah, the gameplay didn't quite work as well as I'd imagined. It's not bad, just not as good as I'd imagined. Have you tried the version someone entered where it's turn based? I think that works the best of the three I've tried so far.
I think that's what Games Jams are about though. Try out some new concept, there's a chance it'll work, and a chance it won't. Either way, you don't have to invest a lot of time to see.
Yeah I tried the other Peggle game as well! it was nice to see the different variations of Peggle :)
I completely agree with you in regards to your point of the purpose of a Game Jam. Its a fun and inspiring thing to test out some different ideas and maybe share/gain some inspiration.
very cool!
Thanks! Were you on a team that submitted an entry?
that looks great. i dont know the original but you get it very quickly :)
You've not heard of Peggle? Youngsters today... It practically invented the casual games market back in the day!
In Peggle, you're in control of the cannon and you're trying to hit all the pegs. You choose the angle of the shot, and when to fire. Then the ball blasts out and bounces around mostly at random. It's a bit like pinball crossed with pachenko. It vomits colours at you like mad too, so this is the antithesis of it in all regards!
Thanks for your kind words though, much appreciated.
The polish on the art is amazing! Having created the art for my game, I am jealous! The game is satisfying to look at and hear, however it often ends up with you just placing random pegs in lines until the ball hits something! Still, this is great!
Thanks for your kind words! Yes, the gameplay didn't quite work out as well as it did in my head. I quite like most of the levels however, especially the final one.
The Shapes plugin is amazing for fast and clean art. Well worth the $25 I spent on it in a sale! It's the mainstay of most of my projects now.
I like both the idea and the polish, and really love how you expand on the rules in the following levels - you even "reversed" the rule about pegs being placed as a target. A nitpicj: I wish there was option to adjust the audio
Thanks for your kind comments! I'll review your game in a bit...
