Line Knight by QuexD

[raw]
made by QuexD for LD31 (COMPO)
My wonderful... game involves moving on a line and it works! (barely)

I blame my friends and Skype for my procrastinating.
Tools:
Game Maker (code ext)
Pickle (art)
abundant-music.com(music gen)
bfxr(sounds well, what you could call sounds...)



"Pro" tips:
there are 3 classes
mage has the steadiest amount of damage
knight has more varied damage then the mage but has more life
the rouge has the largest variation but can deal the most damage

10/10 would dare again

Interesting game, I like the thugs that give you the finger as an attack.

Nice game, but it seems a bit too easy.

Well, I just killed anything without thinking a lot, but nice game. It needs some adjustment on difficulty. Keep it up!

A good game is based on interesting choices... After picking a class (i chose mage I think), there was literally no choice to make. Hit 1 and everything dies. And then the character went off screen... So... Am I missing something?

no I did not have time to finish the difficulty curve and I regret it.

Cool concept and very ambitious to do an rpg. The music was really well done. I liked it, nice game :)

Nice simple, funny game. When I reached the end though, the steps left went negative and the attack options became jumbled. Good job on the animations.

The game could be vastly improved if there was more decision making and strategy involved. The only thing you can do is press 1 and hope you win.

The sound that played when I got to the end scared the crap out of me. Played rogue and just mashed 1, didn't see any level of challenge. Continued walking off into infinity once I got to the right side.

I dont know if i can call it a game or not, i was just pressing one the entire time then dieing :(

Could have used more mechanics and more player control. Leveling up with a second attack was good, towards the end.

Nice intro and funny monsters but i couldn't figure out the game play. Just kept pressing 1 until i died a few times.
Still a nice job for a 48 hours.

"Press one and hope to win" :P
I like that there are different classes, but the player have no impact on the gameplay whatsoever. :D

Interesting take on the theme, an RPG on one line.
Unfortunately, it lacks depth beyond the initial class choice but I might be missing something? Is it Press 1) all the way?

I dig the tunes, surprisingly spry for a dare. Would be sweet to see more depth!

Hahha, middle finger attack. Still laughing about that.

I like how the game progresses as you walk further on the screen, it works really well as a progress bar. Interesting choice to use the "1" key, maybe add a legend for that. Keep up the good work!
