Leave Me Alone by SaiKai
Hello there....
finally we have a "finished" product in our hands.
This is a team effort, produced by Saikai , Dero ,Mirthen , Physx and Madea. This game is our first finished game in this constellation ( and with xna.... mind you ).
This Game need the XNA Redistributable to run.
You can get it from here:
http://www.microsoft.com/download/en/details.aspx?id=15163
The game is a simple side scroll running game. You are followed by a horde of people who want to hug you, even though you sold your "free hugs" sign yesterday. So you try to get away from them. No matter what, you want to be left alone.
The Goal of this game is easy... get to level 5 with as few followers as possible. You can loose followers by throwing bombs at them (...obviously). There are also breakable objects in the level which you can break through while rolling.Also...please don't step into the fire....it hurts.
When you are caught, you can retry the same level, but your score will be reset to zero.
Default controls: ( Can be changed in Options )
[UP] -> Jump
[DOWN] -> roll
[SPACE] -> activate bomb
Good luck ...and pray that our level generator doesn't cough up impossible levels.
ps: We are very sorry that we can't give binaries to all the Linux and MacOs guys(and girls) out there . XNA at fault here :) . We will put up a Youtube Video soon, to show the Game to you too.

Then it would work on more then Windows ;-)
Liked SFX & Music :D
Nice take on the theme.
There were definitely collisions that caught me by surprise, since barely clipping an object caused me to enter a falling state and then slide until I hit a wall (which could sometimes be very far away). Some of the objects are too thin and/or blend in, and some platforms look low enough to run under, but require rolling.
I wish there was a form of air control in this game, since a lot of the cheap deaths and frustration came from doing a big leap only to have some hazard enter the screen directly in the path of my jump. A stomp move, or a hastened fall would help greatly, since I'd have a chance to react to bad jumps and hazards and save myself!
Overall, though, I was really impressed with the entry. It feels complete, which is a lot more than can be said for a lot of entries (my own included).
This game seemed very difficult at first, but after I played it a bit and got used to it it wasn't so bad. Actually, after I mastered it, this became probably the most fun and addictive game I've played. I couldn't stop playing it! After I finally managed to win twice in a row, with a score of 19803, I stopped.
I discovered that you can jump in mid air if you walk off a platform rather than jumping off it. I'm not sure if it was a glitch, but I found it to be a suitable and enjoyable mechanic.
The graphics and sound (especially the music) are good, but some sounds are too loud. Overall, though, it's a fantastic game!
