anosou Posted November 20, 2008 Author Share Posted November 20, 2008 I've tried the demo, and I'll say that the music and art style are both great. The other Community game I've tried had no music, and no direction with its art style -- both you and Oscar have done a great job of making this into something beyond a Q-bert clone. Definitely picking it up asap.My only complaint: I have trouble doing the "low jump" without mashing the X button -- I wish that you could hold it down to force a lower jump. I'll mention that to Oscar, maybe he can patch it! now for great news, THE SOUNDTRACK IS RELEASED! visit www.okgamescompany.com for more information No arrangements atm but they might pop up If a moderator can add FREE SOUNDTRACK in the title (or something fancier, can't really think atm) that would be tops.

The Pezman Posted November 20, 2008 Share Posted November 20, 2008 Your buddy's going to have to tell me how to tame the Pokemon that is XNA Game Studio. Why is it a Pokemon? XNA is taking a nap. XNA ignored orders. XNA is loafing around... Where can I get my M$ badge? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Go wild! I'd love to see some Artoon-remixes up here. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Vivi22 Posted November 21, 2008 Share Posted November 21, 2008 Downloaded the soundtrack yesterday but didn't get the chance to listen to it until a little while ago. I've pretty much had it on repeat for half an hour and it's only what, 9 minutes and 30 seconds or so? I'll probably be listening to it for most of the day. Excellent stuff. I just wish I could hear it in context. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I just wish I could hear it in context. Yeah it's really short.. But it felt cheap to repeat the tracks to make them longer this is how they appear in the game and since it's a free easy release, this is how you're getting them! Glad you enjoyed it, look forward to my soundtrack to an upcoming XNA-release, codename TPM, by Onion Factory Games. Should be up in mid-december and hopefully feature a (longer) free album release too! no promises though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Vivi22 Posted November 21, 2008 Share Posted November 21, 2008 I wasn't complaining about the length mind you, just pointing out I was getting a lot of mileage out of such a short album. The songs can always be set to repeat if I want, but I find the whole album flows pretty well. A few times I didn't even realize that the song changed. Given what little I know about the game I think the songs are a good length, and there's a lot of good material in them; enough that I don't think they need to be any longer.

anosou Posted November 23, 2008 Author Share Posted November 23, 2008 OK Games just got an e-mail from someone who bought the game, I quote: "The music by Mr. Gerdt really drew me in to the experience" :3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Maco70 Posted November 23, 2008 Share Posted November 23, 2008 I hate how the demo is timed. I'll have to go back and play it several more times to get an accurate feel of the game. Seems pretty straightforward, but the time ran out before I could finish the tutorial. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

While you're at it, teach me to play Galaga Legions without killing someone! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Maco70 Posted December 2, 2008 Share Posted December 2, 2008 While you're at it, teach me to play Galaga Legions without killing someone! I love that game. If it had co-op I would. The basic trick is to place your legions where the master Galaga will be. Or to place your legions where they will be enveloped by a swarm, and likely take out the head. When I go gold in a few weeks, we should definitely co-op Ikagura. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Maco70 Posted December 7, 2008 Share Posted December 7, 2008 Oh hey, they mentioned Artoon on the 1up podcast. http://download.gamevideos.com/Podcasts/1UY112808.mp3 It's about 50 minutes in. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Maco70 Posted December 20, 2008 Share Posted December 20, 2008 They mentioned Artoon again in a recent podcast, but I am home now; and I don't know which one. Regardless, I bought it. I have to say, the demo doesn't do this game justice. I got all A+'s. =D My only gripe is lack of online leaderboards. Now that I have all A+, I don't have anything to shoot for.

Thanks for the support and kind words I'm pretty sure it's a XNA-limitation with the leaderboards.. same reason you can't have achievements. We'll see how that develops, he CAN patch the game Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

StarZander Posted December 22, 2008 Share Posted December 22, 2008 The company I work at are giving me a 360 premium (and extra wireless controller and 3 games ) as a christmas present, so I might finally be able to check this game out soon. Woohoo! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
