Stomper by mipi

[raw]
made by mipi for LD30 (COMPO)
wohoo! done!

---Instructions to a new Player---
------------------------------------------------
-You can make changes to left and right side. You must make the two sides identical to each other.
-You must optimize your play and think carefully as you can't click infinitely. Starts easy and goes nuts hard! Enjoy!

Controls:
-Click to shoot
-R to retry level
-Number keys 1,2,3... to change weapons Or Click to weapon icons.
-Sometimes it's smart to click the blue background with weapons that have large radius.

Please don't rate if you don't play past lvl 2 to see any other weapons than the starting pistol!
------------------------------------------------

Update(25.8.2014):
-A "5-minute fix" for a game breaking win condition bug was done.

Update(26.8.2014) Post-Compo:
-Fixed problem with twice looping background music after completing the game with sounds on.
-Fixed problem with freezed whites not properly turning to whites (but blues) after melting.
-Shooting sounds now work when shooting anywhere on the playing field (which includes
the empty blue background)

Update(28.8.2014) Post-Compo2:
-Removed old level 2, player gets faster to the interesting gameplay ( it felt a bit unnecessary and people just might quit playing... )
-Added visualization helpers for the different weapons.

Update (29.8.2014) Post-Compo2:
-Changed the freeze graphics to proper ones from the temp graphics.
-Better information about different medal conditions for the player.
-Improved the tutorial: Now player learns quickly and easily the gun selection.
-Tweaked the medal condition values.

Update (30.8.2014) Post-Compo2:
-Main menu level selection was added.
-Save loading functionality: Game now remembers which level you were in after you start the game again.
-Freeze now cancels out after being used instead of staying since the freeze is practically needed only occasionally and not repeatedly.

Hi there. Nice puzzler you've made there. Like the chiptone music. Like lights-out for the modern age...

Nice puzzle game. Only thing odd for me were the drawings or photos of the guns.

Curse you for taking away my pistol. I was doing fine half-assing my way through the levels. Then suddenly I had to start thinking.

I did manage to finish the game in the end. Great fun!

I like the enhancements in the post compo too! I got to play some levels and I like how the different arms play in the game. Good luck with the entry.

Cool puzzle game, and I liked the different ways of changing the tiles, which made it a lot more interesting in terms of trying to figure out the least number of moves. Not sure how the gun/weapon imagery fit in though. It may be nicer for the overall look of the game to go with more abstract images depicting what can be done. Just a thought, but well done!

interesting logic game. I like the music.
I think weapons would be on pixel-art too. And a little explanation about each will be nice...

Nicely done. Made me think, but wasn't aggravatingly difficult.

good concept for a puzzle, I didn't get far enough to see more weapons. color scheme kinda hurts my eyes though

I did see several weapons just not all in the screenshot, definitely enough to get a feel for the gameplay.. I think that's being a little defensive.

I really liked the idea, and had quite a bit of fun with it. The post-compo version fixes a lot of the issues I had initially (like trying to figure out what the shotgun did). I still have to vote based on the original, but good job in understanding the issues the game initially had and fixing them!

Only one complaint: music gave me a headache. Literally. Sorry man, love your game, but it needs new music!
