28' q7204k by q7204k

[raw]
made by q7204k for LD28 (COMPO)
Hello. I'm q7204k. Or just Q. I'm a 3D modeler, a texture maker and.... well, a little bit of everything else.

This is my first Ludum Dare =D

The rules are simple: you need to reach the door on the left side (green sign). But you can take only one match and there is a time limit.

Controls: W & S -> Move left and right, space -> jump and E for match.

Good luck!

P.s. I had to update the game because of it's unplayable difficulty. Now it's a little bit easer. Hope i didn't break any rules....

Changes:
- player jump higher and run faster;
- matches work a little bit longer;

Very unique application of the theme with a lot of potential, though I can't say I'm much of a fan of the pools of acid. Well done.

Jumping mechanic felt a bit too weak.

I liked the idea with gettig only one match for the level. However, not landing in a pool of acid was very hard even when being able to see something.

I like the idea, But mechanically speaking I think it adds too much frustration to make for good gameplay. It becomes a game about remembering where you died last, rather than using the match tactically, and every level requires a few restarts.

Very well executed though, and it looks pretty.

Thank you everyone =)
Well, now I understand that the game is.... hmm.... a little bit too difficult =D
But I still have several ideas how to improve the gameplay and if I have enough free time I'll make a full verison.

Thank you once again for such a warm welcome =)

Does a good job with mood, but it got tedious to keep replaying levels. It would help if the player could jump farther so you don't have to have perfect timing.

Really interesting concept and take on the theme. Great mood as well. Would prefer if you could use the pack of matches throughout the level though - a little frustrating otherwise.

I liked the idea behind this. The matches is a cool idea, especially the fact that you get a choice. The graphics and sound were good also, and gave the game a good mood.

Were the matches just a random chance each time? Not sure what was going on there. Wish the camera was a little more zoomed in--even with a match, I had a hard time telling when I should jump.

Quite unique, I like the idea of the matches, very cool. I included it in part 7 of my Ludum Dare Compilation series, if you'd like to take a look :) http://youtu.be/1dYHR5aknGc

I wish the jumping was a bit... better.

Very interesting, but as levels grow complicated it turns into a guessing game...
Definitely promising! Keep up the good work!
