Working on a new JS game
Thursday, Oct 10, 2013I've been furloughed from my job (government contractor) so I've had a bit of free time on my hands the last 2 weeks. I decided to start and hopefully in a reasonable amount of time finish a full fledged html5/canvas game.
The name of the game is Grapple Hero, check out a few of the wip screenshots.
If anyone has played my old js1k entry you'll recognize the game play immediately. Your character cannot move any way but using his grapple. Once your grapple makes a connection you are shot up into the air where you need to grapple again or you'll fall (sometimes to your death). I created a website for the game where you can play the most current demo build, which involves you trying to escape from lava.
I plan on releasing it on Windows, Linux, as a standalone executable, on Android via cacoonjs, on the Google app store, and Desura (hopefully).
Its also been added to IndieDB check it out :)
