Hi there!
Day before yesterday i completed Irredeamable and i want to rate this game according to 5 criteria: plot, gameplay, control, graphics, audio. So make yourself comfortable, and i'll start.
Unfortunately i've missed a lot of the plot due to an issue i'll get to later. But based on what i've not missed, i can say the game has the deep plot and dialogue.
Rating: 10/10
Gameplay: fight enemies (including bosses). And everything seems to be fine: there are a lot of weapons and enemies.
But there are 2 issues:
Why must i fight enemies? After all i can just run past them
Bosses of too different difficulty levels:
Some are very hard. It isn't bad but still.
Some i can defeat by cunning: just climb higher and shoot them with stormbolt (machine gun)
Rating: 8/10
Classic control type:
Move: arrows
Jump: Z
Attack: X
Weapon swap: C
Heal: V
Interact: Up
Or:
Move: WASD
Jump: Space
Attack: Left button
Weapon swap: Right button
Heal: Wheel
Interact: E
And also:
Open almanac/skip dialogue: Enter
Open sub-menu (in the almanac)/continue dialogue: Z
But there are also some issues:
Where does it say i can continue dialogue by pressing Z? And this is the main reason why i've missed a lot of the plot (because of it i just skipped most of dialogues)
Where does it say i can open sub-menu in the almanac by pressing Z? This is the 2nd reason of that i've written above
Due to the inconvenient button placement (weapon swap button is located between attack and heal) often i swap weapon by accident (this reeeeeally bothers me)
Rating: 7/10
Nice high-pixel graphics
Rating: 10/10
Good sounds and well chosen background music
Note: audio are mostly not owner by the developer
Rating: 10/10
Irredeamable is a nice game but there are issues with controls and gameplay (but the latter is on the player's conscience)
My favorite boss is Robber King because he isn't too hard but not too easy either: You must shoot him with stormbolt but at the same time dodge his bullets. You can defeat him the first time (if you has a strategy). And his track is my favorite track from this game.
Added the bots section to the settings menu and the randomness factor option
If this option is selected, bots will choose a random cell when choosing between two identical ones (which one to build on or which one to attack). This makes games little more varied
I released funlutab 2.2. Added max, min, reverse, sum and multiply functions; error messages; fixed a small bug with unpack function.
PS: don't worry, i'll update my modules not too often, so there won't be many uninteresting posts like this
Hi!
Added a full screen mode and an ability to sync the speeds of "wave" animations and bots' work
Also now, as it was before, the pause button doesn't pause the game. I had to delete this feature because it was pausing WHOLE the game (for example, the cursors in entry fields were also pausing)
Hi! Sorry for the delay, i didn't have much time to develop the game last week
I decided it's not necessary to teach bots to build defense lines because them are not always effective. But i taught bots to "invest" money in building factories at the beginning of game.
I also decided to delete the cooperation page in the settings menu because i think it's not nice to ask for help directly in my game. At the moment this page is just hidden but i'm going to delete it completely in the future.
I'll publish the 1st interim on my discord server within an hour
Hi! I haven't been developing the game for a couple of days due to illness but now i feel better and i'm able to continue developing
Now bots can bomb each other. I think bots attacks are done so all i have to do is to teach them build defense lines and fix some issues. Then, more likely, i'll publish the 1st interim
Lol, entry fields just disappear on Android:
Now text in entry fields will scroll if it doesn't fit. Also the selected entry field and its message will appear at the top of the screen on Android and IOS (i made this also on Windows to show it to you)
pre-beta 2.0 pre-2: buxfixes
Now it's very important to test the game, so if want to help me, pls go to my discord server ๐. And as always i'll post in it this pre-release within next hour.
Now if you're newbie, you'll be asked to read the tutorial; after a 1st game you'll be asked to rate the game. I also remade the pause menu again, now it and some other windows will change their size depending on the text length. And yes i ask people for help with development right in the settings menu ๐
This is pre-beta 2.0 interim-4 (the last interim before pre-release!) and i'll post it in my discord server within the next hour
PS: maybe i should make larger the yes and no buttons in the "pls rate my game" window?
I've drawn animations of buildings and created game field but I can't build buildings on it yet
Now bots can attacks each other (more precisely, use shellings and tank battles). They decide what cell to attack based on the importance of cells (the cyaner or yellower cell color is, the more important it is (but the color changes non-linearly to make it easier to see the difference))
Bots decide how to attack building (use shelling and then tank battle or tank battle only) depending on what variant is cheaper
But they can't storm because i myself don't use this type of attack. The same situation is with landings (i don't use them too). So i ask you: when should bots storm buildings and use landings? I really don't, so please help me.
