The Perfect Meeting

This game will change your life. I spent like 4 days on it.



Get it on itch

This is the most wonderful experience I will ever have in my entire life. Thank you for making my dreams come true.

This is satisying, yes.

I need this on my phone to show it off to my friends... any plans on that?

I don't know how I would do the controls on a touch screen...

Here's one way to do it:

I could implement swipe if needed... so you can swipe left, right, up and down.

I actually have a lot of experience with Android, I implemented a thing that uses the accelerometer to detect the orientation of the screen and have worked with multitouch too... So if you are interested I may have some time this weekend

PS: Qubodup you can totally cite me in your videos haha no need to hide it. And it's great to see such a thorough tutorial!

My concern is that swiping is too slow of an action to really be able to nudge the logo effectively, but maybe it would actually work well. And of course the gameplay could be adjusted to better suit touch controls. If you want to play around with it I'd definitely be curious to see what you could come up with!

Do you need the code? I could go ahead and open-source it. It's written in MoonScript, so it would be kind of a pain to work with the compiled Lua.

I don't intend to release this on my own nor republsh it so if you want to keep your code private you can PM me... If you need a demo of swipe controls I can probably write one (this weekend) and send it to you so you can decide on it. But yeah, if I have to modify your code I would prefere to work with the Moonscript code (even if I don't know moonscript that much), otherwise I can probably write a swipe library.

I'll test the game on my PC and see how swipe can affect the gameplay... It'll probably be more strategic than reflex based at that point (probably harder than on PC)
EDIT: Yeah this will be as hard as hell hahaha
