I also think that implementing the C button wasn't really necessary. I would've preferred if your character picked up a letter whenever you touched one, but that's just my only criticism.
All in all, a really enjoyable game!
about the C button and why not take the mail directly when collision I dont know but I think I wanted to make the game not so easy :) so I made that decision so that if u are in hurry, u may miss getting the mail from the postman :)
Thnx for the comment :)
That aside , this is a good game , is a good and simple concept , it looks awesome , the sounds are good , the music fits , the bonuses are OK the special dogs attack is cool . On the presentation side this game wins .
A few things kinda messed the experience a bit for me . I don't see the need to press C to pick up stuff , they could just drop and be picked up by colliding with them or if you think that a button is needed then pressing UP or DOWN could have done the trick just as well .I just didn't get used to using the pick up button .
Another thing was the placement of the ladder , if I had to hit a postman that was near the left side of the screen and then another one popped up two stories up or down and my dogs wasn't ready then that was it , by the time I got to the ladder and started climbing , the guard was gone and I was busted . Maybe if the ladder were in the middle or near the middle I wouldn't have felt like a lost in a cheap way , but lost because I wasn't fast enough or wasn't paying good attention , which in my opinion is what the game is about .
One last thing , and of this I'm not very sure , but I managed to fall off the ladder and out of the screen . This only happened once . BTW :why does the ladder goes beyond the bottom level ? Shouldn't it stop in the last floor ?
Anyways , even with this small issues I still enjoyed the game and played it many times . I managed to make a bit over 1000 points . Yes , I suck....
About getting the mail with no collision becz I wanted the game be hard :) the ladder to be on one side is for the same reason :)
you could hide behind a green trees if u are stuck no one will see you ;)
Thnx alex for the comment I wish I could improve my language :) Thnx for this really nice comment and Hope u loved the game :)
Thnx zacks for the comment :)
message_background(background)
message_button(sprite)
does this means that when u are hidden behind tall grass and get caught this never happens at all :-??
I dont know if u understand it very good (may be I am so bad in writing the how to play? but if u can help in that tell me)
But the two things which make u lose in the game is when a postman pass the screen and have a mail becz by that way he delivered the mail to ur mother
or u hit a postman then when he woke up he saw u and catch u :)
but if u are hidden behind grass u cant caught by a woke up postman :)
Hope that helps
