Bug Hunter Evolved by Vircung

[raw]
made by Vircung for LD24 (COMPO)
31.08.2012 Community Quest !!

So i have decided to throw "The Quest" !!

So the plan is :
1. Find a hilarious picture.
2. Think of a comment to this pictire
3. Play the game and rate (and/or put comment)
4. Tweet/PM/mail/comment me that combo with tag/subject "LD24CQ" !!

There is quite big possibility for that this pic will be ingame signed with your nick.

How about that ? Huh ?:D

======================================================

I added post-compo version og my game. Before you rate please play at least correct one :)

I am not taking any responsibility for possible keyboard damages! :D

======================================================

Your task is to hunt bugs in system.

To compleate that task you have to rapidly press specific type of keys on your keyboard. Type is showed just below ingame computers keyboard.

Keytypes are :
- Letters : A-Z
- Digits : 0-9
- Specials : Everything else (F1-F12, Shift, Ctrl, Alt, Tab, Enter, Backspace, Arrows and symbols) but numpad

You have to be carefull because if keyboard turns read that means the type of required keys can change. After that keyboard turns green.

To compleate level you have to press specific amount proper keys in a row (streak). Required streak lenght is showed in top lefthand side screen corner.

When you compleate all 3 levels you'll get reward. To play again you should reset levels from special menu.

Levels differ amount of given time, lenght of streak, and a computer that you work on.

In future i'll add other computers and inprove graphics, so stay tuned.

Cheers :)

I didn't quite understand what I was supposed to do...

From what I could do, it seems like when it says letter you mash the letter keys (A-Z), when it says digits you mash the numbers (0-9 not numpad?) and when it says specials... hit the other keys (shift,alt,ctrl?)? Seemed to work sometimes, not others. Also, for GUI displays with numbers, please round/floor/ceiling them before displaying (we don't need so many decimals places and it is less readable). Felt good to mash my keyboard for a bit.

Looks neat, and I like the quirky humor. I had a hard time figuring out how to play; I tried to type everything indicated, but there wasn't much of a response. I ended up a vampire. Maybe a little more information or feedback would help. It sounds like a cool concept.

Lol, no idea if what I did was right but who doesn't love smashing their keyboard every now and then? Good stuff.

Thanks all for comments!!

That's realy warm feeling that someone liked this game.

I added info about keytypes in Entry description.

About "sometimes working" input. I added time itnerval in event reading keyboard, so that mught be that couse.

I'll add non-compo version that i wanted to upload first time (with actual photos that i googled), so ingame humor probably wil grow a bit up :)

You may have destroyed part of my keyboard. Doesn't have a long lasting gameplay (as it was quite repetitive), but I very much appreciated the humour of the images.

Oh god... So much wtf...
And your game doesn't recognize digits from a macbook keyboard....
Also, sorry, I don't have any hilarious picture for your quest :(

Sorry, but I didn't really catch the idea of the "game". Very poor quality, how many time did you take to do this? Try harder next time!

You just killed my keyboard. Btw, I found that special keys do not respond as faster as letters and digitals.

This is insane. Awesome work, not too polished, but it's still awesome.

Of course, the theme is almost absent.
