Karma Miwa - Space Fractal

[Eddie K]

This thread is for the discussion of Karma Miwa. (note to developer - send me a private message if you would like to edit this thread)

You play as Terry, a strange fragile flightless bird, who has been gone for too long and now wants to go home to his friend, Miwa. However for unknown reasons, enemies are being lured and attracted Terry.

Terry needs to run and jump over many enemies and obstacles on his journey home to Miwa. His trek is long and full of danger!

Howover for some unknown reason, dispite many Enemies to been lured on Terry.

The art style looks rather pleasing to the eye... I wonder if it's any good to play though.

I always wondered what one of the ducks from Duck Hunt would look like in HD.

And now you know...

This game is actually rather intersting.. There are multiple planes in this game and while your peli-penguin-bird-thing takes up all of them from what it seems, the enemies reside only on one.

Pretty sure it's supposed to be a puffin.

Love the visuals. Not a fan of the overall flow of things. Momentum just feels weird and while it makes sense for the jumps to be weighty, it seems a bit extreme. Still, I dug it and would definitely buy if it controlled a little easier.

This is a really, really good game. It's a marvelous homage to Snokie on the C64. Enjoying every minute of it!

Hi, Its was me who created the game, and there is still few fixes to been updated (like the fall sound), and its still a exclusive to OUYA. Im have corrected some decribtion text, which should change. Would been nice to sync to that. Screenshots is all fine.

Here is something to known about the game.
- The gameplay was been inspirated by the C64/Atari 800 game, Snokie (hence the physics is of course not real), howover you cannot jump up in this version (but levels is also designed with that in mind).
- There is two control methods in this game. Im do thinks the 4 point method is easier to been played. This due the levels was designed with that in mind really. Its should been selected as default, but mightbeen a bug if its diddent.
- The duck shown here is also correctly inspirated from the Dunk Hunt game. Its was fun to implement him, when im got that assest file. Im should do a Dunk Hunt game, hehe.
- You will die a lots, just like Snokie, but the game have been even harder in the early state of the game (when you die on just one touch example).
- Oh year, im forgot to remove the graphics details buttons, which was a test button.
- Birds is inspirated from extractly a puffin, which is a flightless bird in the real world.

Some thing im missed?

The current control when using two different control systems can migthtbeen confuction, and should have chooiced "4 poiint" system as default (seperate jump direction buttons).

In the next version, updating this week, im remap buttons to been follow:
U to Jump Left, O to Jump in face direction, and A to Jump Right.

That should been easier to time jumps, and no longer need to change control system eventuelly.
