My entry is clearly incomplete 2008/06/14 10:17  
I planned to work on my entry with a friend something like two weeks ago.
Unfortunately all sorts of problems popped up, I had to go to live in another house, had to buy a new computer, and couldn't connect to the Internet for an entire week.

We crunched for three days working day and night and we came up with a little 3D demo using NVIDIA PhysX. Unfortunately this demo is incomplete and buggy.
Two known bugs are:

- Funny enough, you can't take the tokens. This is a bug I created in the last minutes of working, just before uploading the demo, while working on body grabbing.

- When you die, you're supposed to press any key to restart - but actually, if you do it, the game crashes.

Basically the things you can do are:

- Walking around in the level and jumping on platforms;
- Grabbing barrels and crates and moving them - except for the poisoned barrels, which are the ones that kill you and let the game crash;
- Making piles of crates and barrels to reach high places. This was supposed to be the main gameplay, but unfortunately you can't get tokens (we even coded sounds and animations for tokens, but you can't see it for that bug), so you can't finish the level;
- Hitting crates and barrels and playing around with them.


Here there are some screens of the demo, so you can have a look at the map and the 3d models.





We also did some art not included in the game, like those two enemy models.



Thanks for your attention. I think we're just going to bed and sleep for something like 24 hours non-stop.
Good luck to all of you!
