Pieces by Husky

[raw]
made by Husky for LD26 (COMPO)
*****************************************************************************
Hi, before you started playing.

I want to remind you that I had added the "mouse over + key 'Z'" as the alternative control of mouse middle click.

Thanks :p

Hmm...I thought the theme would be like "Death is good". "Afterlife". "After the end of the world" or "Every Death is meaningful",
then I can make a horror game muhahahaha!

But it is not. *sigh*

According to these key words:
"Less is more".
"Simple is good".

and I saw the post: http://www.coffeewithanarchitect.com/2011/11/16/ten-representations-of-minimalism/

They give me a idea to make a game using plus/minus (difference/union?)as its gameplay.

I feel a little sad that the ideas of horror games, I want to use at the "Death" themes, are all gone.

So I was trying to make "Pieces" like a evil and horror game lol (well, maybe I failed).

I am using the same languages and tools as usual: AS3 and Lua.

This time, I was trying to make a music by TENORI-ON, it's pretty fun, but I still need lots of practice.

That's all, thanks for playing! :)

The game is pretty short, so it's ok to put attention on game dialog ;)

oh, and the game has potatoes.

This is really really cool! My only complain is the flashing when hovering over an object.. it got distracting and annoying fast.

Exactly the same as FuzzyWuzzie.
Really cool ! But objects flash way too fast.

Anyway, good job !

I think I need to invest in a proper mouse. Hard to play on my trackpad.

I fixed the annoying flicking effect.

@omaha
Aw, sorry. I forgot the notbook users...
I add the "mouse over + key 'Z'" as the alternative control of middle click.

Thanks for your feedback! :)

It's a great idea and it fits the theme. Sometimes the click doesn't work.

I liked the game, but I found that the puzzles kinda stopped making sense after a while and I was just clicking without thinking

I really liked this. The final puzzle in particular really convinced me. Excellent mechanic, and great execution of it. I wasn't able to middle click (the browser would intercept it before the flash embed). Luckily it isn't critical.

Yay! Fit the theme really well! Great game!

There are a LOT of typos though, but it's forgivable.

How exactly did you make this? I don't understand how you could get the middle and right mouse click working if you used as3

I was compelled to finish the game and find out the ending! I would agree that this is a charming game. The music, sound effects, and story really helped draw me in, and the mechanic was pretty solid - and certainly minimalist. Excellent submission.

Too bad you didn't think to the players who don't have a middle click :(

A puzzling puzzle if I ever puzzled over one. Great presentation and the like! You really put a lot of effort into making this work with the minimalism theme.

Thank you and your feedback, guys! :D

Sorry for my poor level designing and English/grammar...*sigh*

I had added the "mouse over + key 'Z'" as the alternative controlling of mouse middle click,
hope that can solve all the middle mouse problems...
My fault, I wouldn't use middle mouse in my gameplay next time. :s

Thanks again!

Very cool idea. The doll puzzle was pretty tricky though :( Didn't beat it. I think I'll go back and try again.

Hi, AS3 can use the event of mouse middle and right after FP11.2! :D

Nice mechanic for this puzzle game.
Sometimes it's a bit hard to find the right combination when we just have a text description oh the key, but it's also challenging.

Such a smart game! I love the idea of adding and subtracting, and I love the way you approached the theme. It took me a little while to completely wrap my head around the game mechanics, since the Umbrella + Cat stage got a little complex. Great work. :)

Quite a weird game and the concept itself is pretty odd but I have to score you high on innovation purely because of that.
