Developer Updates

Feb 10, 2012 6:03pm

- Added a shadow hint on easy mode that shows you where the next block will appear.

- Made the game generally easier:
1) You can now no longer collide with the sides or bottoms of blocks, only the tops. 2) You can only collide with the bottom of falling rocks. 3) You can jump up above the screen.

- Fixed issue with saving difficulty setting.

- The game now submits to the API upon death in addition to clicking the main menu button.

- When first coming on to the play screen, the first block should now always appear directly below you. If not, just hit R and it should work. This won’t count towards your deaths.

- Adjusted collision detection to fireballs shouldn’t tag you quite so easily.

- Slightly increased the fade in/out time of the blocks to give a little more time to react.

- Fixed issue with saving checkpoints across game difficulties.

Great execution of a really cool concept! Reminds me of playing this in real life when I was a kid. This feels really polished, and the gameplay itself is alot of fun. If this wasn't a GiTD game, I think it would still deserve a 3.5 in my books, but since it's GiTD I genuinely think it deserves the 5/5 that I gave it.
