Space The Retribution - free web game

Hey Guys!

Long time no see gstudio.

Not sure if you mind me promoting this game here, thought I'd come along and share it with you guys.

It's our first casual action game under the banner of EditorialD. In "Space: The Retribution", your mission is to liberate your mining stations, which have been taken captive by a mysterious enemy.

Play it now at Wooglie!

More levels und upgrades please

Cool gfx, nice sfx, nice gameplay. A little bit repititve after a while, but still fun. If you ever do a v 2.0, maybe think about adding different missions and a little plot.

All in all a really cool game for the work break

Very nice game. I like it!

looks nice!

did you create this with unity indie? i thought the loading screen logo can't be changed with unity indie?

I like this game. Intresting!!

Thank you guys appreciate it!

Yes Unity Indie was used

Well my feedback is that I did not play the game because I did not feel like downloading yet another free pluggin for my browser! I'm sure eventually one of my disobedient children will download it

I watched part of the video. the game looks good but I was wondering if in the game the ship is tethered to the center of the screen. In the video it appears that only the background moves.

Is this a Rebel Planet game or is this a personal/outside project. I checked the RP website but saw no mention of this game

Really, you should check this game! It is very well made and has some RPG elements, you can upgrade your weapons and/or upgrade your side kicks. You can navigate through a map and fight some boss enemies. You can move how you like in any direction to free some space stations.
You can even do some mining.

I find it a very good and addictive concept.

And if you fear the plugin then you can de-install it later.

Oh I will shortly when I have some more time.

I wonder though how much affect requiring a pluggin will have on game distribution. Obviously this site is geared toward kids and kids are (or should be) told not to download pluggins. Of course if unity becomes as common as flash it won't be an issue. But there seems to be somewhat of a backlash regarding browser pluggins

not bad, short but not bad.

It looks rather good and it's fun for a while, although, as with all of these type of games I lost interest quickly. I finished though. Nice to see what you've been doing with Unity.

Good Luck.

PS: Posted it.

hey, realy a great game.. its much fun. which version of unity did you use??

edit:needs more powerups i really really like it so far

Looks nice, but it's not fun that you didn't take in account left handed people .

Thats a general gamedesign mistake.
I have also played games, wich seem to be made by lefthanded people,
putting the movement on the cursor while having to use the mouse.

There should be always WASD AND the cursorkeys in paralel.

Its easy to use paralel keyinputs, even easier than creating
a seperate key-configurator.

(not referring to the game here, just in general)

Im using my pencil in left hand, and rather have the arrows on my right, while the arrow keys work, tracktor beam and repair does not :P.

what an addictive game! my wide started yelling at me, because i was ignoring her,lol! i couldnt stop playing it.

Thanks Guys!!

What control scheme are you most comfortable with Joozey?

Swinging asteroid and repair? What keys should they be for a left hander?

Yes, to be honest, I don't like the control scheme that much. I'm used to for example pressing the right mouse button to thrust forward. It really takes a while before I got used to aiming with the guns separately from moving around. It feels unnatural.

Apart from that the game is pretty good. I love the art and style.

Cool game, it's somehow like your "what games make fun" project.

I like the movement though, im a huge fan of games where the shooting direction and moving direction are seperated.

I do not agree with Phemox, and think separate aiming with mouse and moving with arrows gives much movement freedom. I don't mind geting used to it. But I'm now crossing hands over my laptop . The arrow keys do make the ship move, but there's no tracktor beam button near the arrow keys. So making shift be tracktor beam would practically solve the problem.

Done Joozey Thanks for the feedback.

I probably should have said that I initially played the game on a laptop. It's quite annoying without a separate mouse, but having played on a desktop, it does work good enough for me also.
