Slightly annoying how it's not obvious that the top of the screen is a wall until you hit it and end up having to do the whole level again... :D Lots of stuff that could be polished, but it's already quite fun, congrats on that (and finishing your first LD attempt)."},{"author_name":"plams","author_uid":"3099","time":"Dec 20, 2010 @ 9:22pm","epoch":1292879820,"text":"Holds a slight similarity to my game :) (and I secretly hoped that exiting in black phase would go back a level, or do something unexpected). Controls and physics are a bit glitchy, which is a shame since they make most of the game."},{"author_name":"LegacyCrono","author_uid":"3093","time":"Dec 21, 2010 @ 11:44am","epoch":1292931540,"text":"Doh! I didn't had noticed that P changed between phases. Okay, I finished the game. It's simple and easy (too easy, actually). Not bad, but you should work on more complex levels. Maybe adding moving obstacles, or something like that. Right now it's not very entertaining."},{"author_name":"Starspell","author_uid":"1791","time":"Dec 22, 2010 @ 6:08pm","epoch":1293040980,"text":"Congratulations on making your first game for the competition. The physics are well done for 48 hours but there isn't much to say about the game in general beside that. I suggest using a library to help you with the core of the mechanics next time. Then you can concentrate on the game aspect of the game."},{"author_name":"barigorokarl","author_uid":"3036","time":"Dec 22, 2010 @ 9:26pm","epoch":1293052860,"text":"This phase thing is really challenging. I had to work pretty hard for the first level, then the next 3 where no problem. I would like to pledge for a convenience addon: make the platforms &quot;jump through&quot;able, when you are under them. Nice game!"},{"author_name":"Endurion","author_uid":"103","time":"Dec 29, 2010 @ 6:54am","epoch":1293605340,"text":"Nice mechanic. Simple and easy to grasp.\r<br\/>One problem I have is that the control of the ball feels too floaty."},{"author_name":"Sythiri","author_uid":"3472","time":"Dec 29, 2010 @ 4:19pm","epoch":1293639240,"text":"@barigorokarl The platforms purposely cannot be jumped through. Players are meant to use the phase switch mechanic to jump through things. I tried toying with this in level 4.\r<br\/>\r<br\/>@Endurion Thanks, I might try changing the gravity and velocity values if I get more comments saying the same thing."}],"images":["ld19\/3472-b11e899073e56dbd382f4cfbf91a362e.jpg","ld19\/3472-5a7b3a21a7b800c5682311e923e0adea.jpg"],"links":[{"url":"http:\/\/files.sephizor.com\/LD19\/Wysp.jar","text":"Multiplatform"},{"url":"http:\/\/files.sephizor.com\/LD19\/Wysp-update-v1.2.jar","text":"Update (New Engine)"},{"url":"http:\/\/files.sephizor.com\/LD19\/Wysp%20-%20LD19.zip","text":"Source"},{"url":"http:\/\/files.sephizor.com\/LD19\/Wysp-source-update-v1.2.zip","text":"Source Update (New Engine)"}],"metadata":{"g_key":"33516","g_author":"3472","g_event":"LD19","g_eventkey":"5","g_subevent":"COMPO","g_urlkey":"33546","g_title":"Wysp","g_status":"UCHK1","g_place":"167","g_commentcount":"10","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\/\/33232\/3472-shot0.png-eq-900-500.jpg","http:\/\/ludumdare.com\/compo\/wp-content\/compo2\/\/33232\/3472-shot1.png-eq-900-500.jpg"],"text":"2D Java Platformer\r\n\r\nThis is my first time taking part in LD, don't think I've done too badly considering ^^.\r\n\r\nDiscover the way to the exit by transitioning phases!\r\n\r\nv1.2 bugfixes:\r\n - Fixed the bug where the position of the exit sign on the second level changes between the two phases\r\n - Rewritten engine to improve performance and make things a lot more clear.\r\n\r\nStill to fix:\r\n - Collision detection with top surface of platforms as you bounce weirdly on them\r\n - Add more levels (Currently 5)\r\n\r\nEnjoy.<\/p>","title":"Wysp"}
