Dominos 3, two videos

Posted by marbs on March 21, 2010, 4:50 p.m.

Today I discovered that I am about 10000% more productive if I disconnect from the internet. As such, I got around to making some good progress on Dominos 3, and even went so far as decided to video the game.

Here are the aforementioned videos:

Video 1: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=oNn0AEn48YM

Video 2: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1xVRsDiv584

(64D youtube tag makes sad face and goes grumpy when used twice. I can only assume that tag becomes jealous of its twin and decides not to cooperate)

Video 1

This first video displays the 3 tutorial levels, which were the most recent things I added. I could possibly improve them by adding some text to help explain, but there is also a text explanation earlier (though people might be silly and just skip through the text explanation, and then complain that they don't understand how to play the game (however the text explanation does include a lot of fun pictures as well)).

This video ends abruptly because my camera ran out of memory (comes from not deleting anything off of it for half a year or so).

Video 2

This second video shows the new levels and obstacles. These exciting new obstacles include thrilling triangles, that can swing back and forth; magnificent rotating octagons that rotate; and cliche bouncing springs! All good platformer games have springs in them after all.

What to do

What to do, as in, what other stuff I will do to the game before it is complete:

-more levels

-more player skins (video 2 shows off the pirate skin, complete with beard and hat and eyepatch and goate and golden tooth and imaginary pirate sound effects, arr!)

-music! (still not got sorted out how I will get this part done)

Well that should do for now. Would you look at that, an actual blog about game development on a game development website (supposedly).

Cheerio for now, I shall return to eating my scrumdiddlyumptious crumpets. How very British of me.

How much is it going to cost? And is the number in the bottom left of the screen FPS?

Price is undecided yet, though probably either $3, $2 or $1. I shall need to do some more investigating. And yeah, that is the fps, however I hear that the game runs at 60fps on 3rd gen devices (mine is 2nd gen). I fear that it may run lower than 30fps on 1st gen, but I have no way to test that right now.

@Jaxx

Thanks!

@Mat

Scones, though tastier, were more expensive. They were £1 something for 6, whereas crumpets were 8 for 57p. Cheap (but probably made from sawdust).

the internet is incredibly distracting.

I have decided that you will make a PC version. :)
