"Greek War"

[BlueThumbDevelopment]

So I thought I'd share my first *proper* game and see what people think

Controls:

• WASD/Arrow Keys to move

• Mouse click/hold to fire arrow

• Mouse to aim

Try and hold on until wave 10 at least.

Thanks for posting!

Pros:

• Fun to play

• Simple controls

• The music is catchy

• A challenge to reach wave 10!

Possible suggestions to take it further...

• The opengameart website has some good images to use

• Have (or increase) a minimum distance enemies can spawn from your current position

• A variety of weapons and effects e.g. range, damage, bombs etc.

• It's more like a "tank" game than a greek war?

Thanks for the feedback!!
I know the character "models" are only simple and basic and it's a very simple game, but I needed a name.so I went for that. I really appreciate your comment on the game! (Also, I only spent a few days on and off on it)

Make the main guy have a bow and animate it. Look into the library anim8 for animations. Make a death animation for the other guys. Ability to restart game (that's a hard one!).

It is a fun game. Getting to kill all enemies before they reach you gets really challenging. Some weapon upgrades (e.g. speed, area of effect) would be nice.

There is a bug in level 10*(n+1) for n>=1. The hitpoints for the boss monster do not get reset, but set to 0 (enemies.lua line 139) instead of 1000.

To reduce the size of the game you should convert bossMusci.wav into an OGG-file. This should reduce the file size of the love-file by a factor of ~7.

I'll have a look into it! Thanks for the suggestion!

Thank you! Nice one noticing that bug, I'll have a look and try to fix that. And I'll go and convert that file!
