Great concept, hilarious dialogue, and an easy-to-pick up, difficult-to-master mechanic.
Deez nuts
The game was fun. I had to restart it to finally be able play it just fine. For some reason it got stuck before it even got started. The only thing I didn't like much was just the sound effects for the explosion. I think it was a little too loud. I had fun destroying the castles with the different items. I do feel like the cool down time is a bit much. I'll try the updated version for sure!
I'm still using an older version of UE4. The current version has a completely revamped destructible system; I haven't tried it out yet but hopefully it's better than what's in 4.19 (this version). The destructible mesh physics absolutely crush even higher end PC setups. That is the only reason for the cooldown -- and yeah, it's annoying. You should see what it does if I allow you to throw as quick as you can click the mouse!
damn, sad to hear that brother. Hope you can polish what you have here later on.
This was an all around good experience. You certainly nailed the theme!
New version up:
No more starting over from the first castle if you FAIL, you start again on the same castle.
More UI elements (callouts for K+M inputs).
Two more castles to smash!
Laughed my heart out! I truly believe it captured the essence of the theme. My only suggestion would be to have the option to continue at the level you left off. The voice acting was a great addition too, it really made the game to go from just a funny concept to a game where you literally laugh out loud while you're playing. Great job!
Being a beach grump is a fun use of the theme, loved the sounds. I wish there wasn't a delay on being able to shoot your next shot. For throwing things was there a difference between the beer cans and shells? Might benefit from having lives to restart a castle rather than just putting you back at the first sandcastle if you fail. Maybe you should be throwing more old man items like a hat, monacle or shoes.
The delay is intentional so the debris from the destructible meshes has time to settle. it got ugly if you threw a bunch of stuff one right after another.
The beer can is larger and can hit more than one mesh at a time so there's some advantage to it.
I will change the fail to reloading the same castle. The original intention was to have a "How far can you get?" style game, but I can see that being annoying.
Thanks!
Really fun concept, reminds me of the old block castle flash games I used to play.
Thanks! This is actually a simplified version of a much larger idea I have. Perhaps for the next game jam :)
Only got 8 castles complete, got crap on honeydo list I have to get to. This may be the final submission.
Genius
Just uploaded a new build. I left out proper fail handling (reloads current level now) and added proper quit menu functionality. Now to build a full set of castle pieces to fill out the levels!
