Circa in Playtest!

#1 Hey John quite cool concept. I like the sounds that play when you shoot the stuff, the circular particles, its cool.

I think you are missing a screen, there is no press start to continue where it selects the controller. I had to guess at it in the the TorqueX screen.

I was kinda shocked at the death, it seems I just die and still on multiple plays don't really know why. Maybe I hit one of the enemies, or there is one shot death. I don't know. If you have a health like you do in the corner, then it seems that a one hit kill is a bit much. It seems to hint that you can withstand some punishment.

I will post in the next few days how I did the sales screen.

Good job so far.

#2 Thanks for your I will take a look at the start screen and the death. The game difficulty is supposed to be hard to very hard. But it could be a collision issue. Ill check it out.

Thank you for the "buy" code. And I really thank you for your Game Kit it saved me a lot of time :).

#3 I'd also make a video, the video is seriously only to get people to playtest and review it as we are the only ones who look at it.

#4 Yep Im making a video right now. I also have other screenshots for my game. But I can't seem to edit the details. Im sure they let you edit the details at somepoint... Right :)

#5 You have to end playtest to edit the game details ;) Sorry for the Code 4 issue! Let me know if you need more info.

#6 Anyone else getting weird runtime errors when clicking the link? :|

#7 What kind of error are you getting. Thanks for play-testing :)

#8 I meant literally in the link. I'm gettin one of these awesome things. "Server Error In application /" ect ect. when trying to load up the page. Tried it on a couple boxes and browsers.

Is there another way to navigate to it?

#9
WOO!

#10 It works fine for Me :)

#11 I get the error too. Chrome, FF, IE...

#12 Sometimes the XNA forums have issues, sometimes they go down. They also don't always play well with chrome or even firefox.

You guys could also go to the XNA site and look at the games in playtest and go for it.

#13 i havent tried the new torque beta yet, is it that much of an improvement? and wouldn't Your game Circa techinquelly be the firstgame completed on Troque beta 0_o thats pretty awesome.

I love the box art and Henry's game test kit is awesome along with the Torque X book, we need a new version of that book GURU!

#14 Hi Mark, I haven't thought of it like that. Thank you for the kind words. I like the box art too Im going to have t-shirts with the same logo :)

Yes, I love the beta. The old one would crash for no reason giving me a lot of stress. The new one doesn't do that so I like it.

#15 @Henry - They make browsers other than Chrome and Firefox? Anyone know where I can download Netscape? :P Thanks for the tip. I'll do some clicking around the playtest area.

@John - I'll play with it tomorrow as soon as I get some time. Looking forward to it, since there was practically a thread every other day about it :P

#16 Im updating the game today.

Fixed bugs
- Ambiguous start screen
- Mysterious death

Not fixed bugs
- code 4 due to controller type
- code 7 error

#17 The Code 7 is not fixable, it means that the Creator's Club Premium account has been disconnected or cannot reach the LIVE service ;)

#18 I think I found the origin of your Code 4, I'll double check then I'll send you an e-mail.

#19 I have updated the thread I also have a trailer for the game. :)

Fixed bugs
