Newton Adventure

[devnewton]

Hello everyone,

Here is my project, a 2d platformer with 360° rotatable levels. It has more than 30 levels, 6 x 5 quests each with different play style (action, puzzle, exploration) and theme (jungle, arctic, volcano...).

I use lwjgl as main api, twl for configuration GUI, phys2d as physical engine, tiled as level editor.

The development of this game make me start two other free softwares:

• http://devnewton.bci.im/projects/nanim a 2d animation format and toolchain including a texture packer
• http://devnewton.bci.im/projects/scoreserver an highscores webapp

I'm always looking for players advice or contributors ( http://devnewton.bci.im/projects/newton_adventure/wiki?name=Contribute ) to make it better.

I hope you will enjoy playing my game!

Downloading the file took a loooong time. 50KBps to download a 25MB file is....not pleasant

Anyway: I like it! It reminded me of a similar game I used to play on my iTouch.

Graphics could, however, use some work, and the scrolling of the clouds was...errrr....interesting. I really like the rotation of the gravity and the physics though, well done!

Thank you for your reply.

I added an alternative faster link for download for future users.

If you find this game familiar, it's normal, there is some other games in the "rotating platformer" genre. The oldest is Bob's bad day on Amiga I think.

Concerning graphics, I'm working on it, but I'm not an artist
