Ok. Here's a version to try out. It's mute, unfortunately. It'll take a day or two more for the audio version. There are several bugs still in there. If something starts to looks odd, just refresh the page and start again. Please use newest available version of a htm5 compliant browser. Game is only tested in Firefox. Feedback is much appreciated. If you have any questions, feel free to ask.
http://16x16.org/escape_wip/runtime/index.htmlThere is no readme or ingame instructions yet so please read below to avoid initial confusion:
Title screen:Customize your character before starting. Select weapons for left and right hand and assign 10 available points to weapon stats. You can also change game difficulty and the island size here.
ObjectiveSearch the village until you find: boat fuel, boat keys and your spouse (listed lower right). Then locate the boat on the coast and escape.
Controls:WASD or arrows - move
LEFT MOUSE - trigger left hand weapon, hold on furniture to search
RIGHT MOUSE - trigger right hand weapon
MIDDLE MOUSE on villager - detach/attach villager
P - pause
M - toggle music
ESC - exit game and return to title screen
Weapon operation:HarpoonPress button - launch harpoon
Press button again - retract harpoon
Number on a harpooned fish represents hitpoints. If you retract the harpoon before hitpoints are depleted, the fish will flee unharmed
NetPress and hold button - throw net
Press button again - collect net
Fish bigger than a net circle it touches will tear that net circle. That part of the net will be broken until repaired.
HooksPress and hold button - throw hooks
Press button again - collect hooks
Number on a fish that bitten a hook tells you how many more hooks it needs to bite until you can reel to kill it.
Known issues:
- Might not work properly in browsers other than Firefox
- Collision resolver needs some more work - sometimes large fish tend to stuck/flicker between the furniture. On lower framerates unwanted passing through walls can happen
- Island generator might misfire on occasion - sometimes (rarely) the game will not start at all, displaying black screen only. In that case, refresh the page. Generator also might sometimes create unwanted overlapping houses.
- Game sometimes freezes when throwing nets. Reload the page and start again. This is rather annoying. I'll try to fix this one asap.
