Can't believe it's been done in the space of LD. The way the room style changes after getting the ore is nice, and I liked the ending. Nothing to complain about really, apart from the spikes having a slightly larger than expected hitbox - perhaps add a few pixels to the sprites to compensate.\r<br\/>\r<br\/>Time to go for the remaining ducks and ore now. Some of those duck rooms look horrendous :)"},{"author_name":"csanyk","author_uid":"10473","time":"Dec 18, 2012 @ 2:53am","epoch":1355798880,"text":"Absolutely amazing!  Reminds me a lot of Redder by Anna Anthropy.

The graphics look good the controls work well. \r<br\/>I like the different enemies (enemies that jump, sit still, fall from the ceiling). It's a lot of fun to play even though it can be frustrating that you die if you get one hit. This is the main reason I haven't finished the game yet. \r<br\/>But, this is the first game that I plan on playing more than just one time.\r<br\/>It's great fun!"},{"author_name":"sev_inf","author_uid":"13588","time":"Dec 19, 2012 @ 8:45pm","epoch":1355949600,"text":"Awesome platformer, reminds me of Spelunky."},{"author_name":"gameXcore","author_uid":"7049","time":"Dec 19, 2012 @ 8:47pm","epoch":1355949720,"text":"A really solid platformer, my only complaint being that I couldn't turn without moving forward, it meant dropping into some of the smaller gaps and killing an enemy quickly was next to impossible."},{"author_name":"Ed Okonik","author_uid":"17164","time":"Dec 19, 2012 @ 8:56pm","epoch":1355950260,"text":"Really cool game.

This is a great game - the graphics are amazing, the audio fits very well, and all of the features are there!  I think the junk should have been more fun to collect - it didn't add anything meaningful to the game, in my perspective.  I just loved the exploration part.  The white outline of the text is distracting and doesn't seem to fit the theme very well.  Perhaps a shadow would be more acceptable.  Other than that, *fantastic* job!"},{"author_name":"blackmagic","author_uid":"16703","time":"Dec 20, 2012 @ 12:59pm","epoch":1356008040,"text":"Game is good, there is lot of content but insta death and sparsed checkpoints makes it really hard."},{"author_name":"dek","author_uid":"11517","time":"Dec 20, 2012 @ 1:18pm","epoch":1356009180,"text":"Very beautiful :)"},{"author_name":"01010111","author_uid":"11474","time":"Dec 22, 2012 @ 11:11am","epoch":1356174360,"text":"The world got so spooky!

But (seemingly) unreachable gems, weird physics, &quot;unexpected&quot; hitboxes, a lack of savepoints, (at first) quite unnoticable spikes and the repetitive gameplay made me quit before I finished. Stuff like getting the ducks was nice, but for a LD game, this is too difficult. The audio was quite ok. Nice job though :)"},{"author_name":"zkenshin","author_uid":"12839","time":"Jan 5, 2013 @ 2:01am","epoch":1357350960,"text":"Well done."}],"images":["ld25\/1551-81ff0dca0787cb10878ebef7eecd9d47.jpg","ld25\/1551-a4f7cb0f498adb6d04657fa44d708bfe.jpg","ld25\/1551-593794552ed1541cf5b4e54bc09cd62b.jpg","ld25\/1551-5a0a8bc62c518d4a3f7633aa12105024.jpg","ld25\/1551-40fa1053b6d6ef462fcdb315bc28e09b.jpg"],"links":[{"url":"https:\/\/dl.dropbox.com\/u\/6478756\/Games\/LD72\/25%20-%20YOU%20ARE%20THE%20VILLAIN%20-%20Junkbot\/Junkbot.exe","text":"Windows .exe"},{"url":"https:\/\/dl.dropbox.com\/u\/6478756\/Games\/LD72\/25%20-%20YOU%20ARE%20THE%20VILLAIN%20-%20Junkbot\/Junkbot_fix.exe","text":"Post-Jam Fix .exe"},{"url":"http:\/\/www.youtube.com\/watch?v=iq9ZQQ6EvO8","text":"Spaceoff's Timelapse"},{"url":"http:\/\/www.youtube.com\/watch?v=cXIsJva0R1c","text":"Maple's Timelapse"},{"url":"https:\/\/dl.dropbox.com\/u\/6478756\/Games\/LD72\/25%20-%20YOU%20ARE%20THE%20VILLAIN%20-%20Junkbot\/Junkbot.gm81","text":"Source .gm81"}],"metadata":{"g_key":"27729","g_author":"1551","g_event":"LD25","g_eventkey":"14","g_subevent":"JAM","g_urlkey":"27759","g_title":"Junkbot","g_status":"UCHK1","g_place":"20","g_commentcount":"15","g_site2_node_id":"0","g_hide":"N","g_has_icon":"Y","g_rqueue":"0","g_random":"0"},"nds":[],"node":null,"orig_images":["http:\/\/ludumdare.com\/compo\/wp-content\/compo2\/\/201083\/1551-shot0.png-eq-900-500.jpg","http:\/\/ludumdare.com\/compo\/wp-content\/compo2\/\/201083\/1551-shot1.png-eq-900-500.jpg","http:\/\/ludumdare.com\/compo\/wp-content\/compo2\/\/201083\/1551-shot2.png-eq-900-500.jpg","http:\/\/ludumdare.com\/compo\/wp-content\/compo2\/\/201083\/1551-shot3.png-eq-900-500.jpg","http:\/\/ludumdare.com\/compo\/wp-content\/compo2\/\/201083\/1551-shot4.png-eq-900-500.jpg"],"text":"A metroidvania by Spaceoff and Maple.\r\n\r\nSpeedrun Timer modification by Will \"Xyen\" (2012\/12\/21 ver.):\r\nhttps:\/\/dl.dropbox.com\/u\/6478756\/Misc\/Junkbot_Speedrun_Timer.exe\r\n\r\n--------------------------------------------------\r\n\/\/ Post-Jam Fix .exe \/ Source .gm81\r\n--------------------------------------------------\r\n\/\/ 2012\/12\/18 Update\r\n\/\/ Can't get stuck in one particular wall anymore.\r\n\/\/ The total amount of ore is now correct.\r\n\/\/ Made 2 impossible-to-obtain ore possible to obtain.\r\n\/\/ Deleted some duplicates of breakable blocks.\r\n\/\/ Easier to backtrack from final savestation.\r\n--------------------------------------------------\r\n\/\/ 2012\/12\/20 Update\r\n\/\/ Character now instantly faces the direction you press.\r\n--------------------------------------------------\r\n\/\/ 2012\/12\/21 Update\r\n\/\/ Made some unintentionally difficult situations less difficult.\r\n\/\/ Stopped the hover sound from playing when entering a new room.\r\n\/\/ Fixed a mysterious rubber ducky challenge being easily surpassed.\r\n--------------------------------------------------\r\n\r\nControls:\r\nShoot a savepoint to save.\r\nArrow keys \/ WASD -- Run, Jump, slide down walls (with wall-cling ability).\r\nSpacebar \/ X -- Fire weapon.\r\nR -- Die and Respawn.\r\n1 -- Toggle Music.\r\n2 -- Toggle Sound.\r\nF4 -- Toggle Fullscreen.\r\n\r\nTools Used:\r\nGame Maker\r\nPaint.net\r\nSFXR\r\nPxTone\r\n\r\nLet us know what you think!\r\n~Maple<\/p>","title":"Junkbot"}
