Heroes of Loot

Any game that uses "Starteth" is a winner in my book

That 'Q' still looks like an 'R'.  Can't say I envy the task of trying to make a 3x5 font though 

Challenge accepted. (at least to fix the Q)



Bigger with nearest neighbor filtering.



Close enough.

I originally was not thinking blocky corners like you have so this is what it was like before changing.



Feels wrong with all the other characters being blocky.

This was my try in inspiration of what was posted before:

Go for matheus' He has taken the best of the 2 I made and some how through unknown black magic combined them into one. Bravo old boy!

Thank you
Actually It's only a pixel difference, but with such little images this makes a huge significance

Just found this gem here.

Needed to switch to Java 6 on OS X (crash on Java 7 due to older lwjgl), but a very fun and addictive game to play!

Donation on its way. :-)

I have a new build with the lwjgl fix in, so that crash will be fixed when I can clean it up and upload, same with people having only opengl1 support and crashes on startup due to that.

just have to find a fix for some texture-tearing on some computers :/ lot's of white lines between background tiles

thanks for the donation fellow Dutchie !

this is basically pay what you want to see if there is an audience for my type of games on pc/mac, and also as I wasn't 100% sure the game would run on enough systems without issues.. so it's really a trial run for more awesomeness

but I must say I'm really honored by the awesome amounts of donations and the height of some of those donations, really opened my eyes that pc/mac market is next on my list of platforms to support!

so as an experiment it really was a success and I'll bring the full version and my other games to desktop when I get around to it!

THIS GAME IS SOOOOO ADDICTIVE, LOVE IT!!!

Just uploaded a new preview, this time of the game running on Ouya (same code base!)

still lots of stuff to do, but you can already see a lot of the changes and tweaks since the beta

[badlogicgames]

Your Ouya port uses libgdx? Crazy!

Fun game, looking forward to the final version.

haha libgdx for the desktop version but we can tell the world it does!

[ReBirth]

Libgdx supports Ouya?! why don't you say?!

[sproingie]

A quick search shows he did say, several months ago

[Herjan]

Lol, I had a very funny moment when I got pushed/smashed whatever out the map, I was able to move very fast through the black, liked that bug However, maybe you have to fix it. It was somewhere around level 20, don't know exact :S

[orangepascal]

Release is nearing!!   Thanks to everyone trying out the beta and more awesome those who donated!

The full version has improved A LOT since the beta, it will now run much better with regards to opengl2 crashes (now only requires opengl1) and better resolution support, and even controller support is added  all thanks to great work from the guys at LWJGL and LibGDX (desktop version runs on libgdx).

The game itself has also seen a lot of improvements, more content, better gameplay, great music, etc, etc..

Release date will be September 12th, and you can find all the info here: http://www.heroesofloot.com/

A download link will be made available for the desktop version by then, and I'm working on getting all those who donated to the beta an updated version of the game file!

Game will also be available on Android, iOS, Ouya, nVidia Shield and Gamestick.  A PS Vita version is planned for later this year / early 2014ish

How do you plan on porting your game to Vita?

[orangepascal]

I work together with the fellow Dutch guys at Abstraction games who also ported Hotline Miami and a host of other vita games..

We are porting my Gunslugs to PS Vita now (http://gunslugs.com)  and will be released in October, and then Heroes of Loot is one of the other games we have on a list of interesting things

I'm suddenly quite jealous! Good luck to you with your project.
I'll keep watching for sure.

If any of you guys from Abstraction are over in the UK for any events, make sure you let me know!
Would be great to meet other Dutch developers.

The game is now LIVE!   And everybody who donated can "redownload" the game files,  you should receive a new email with the download link in your mailbox today.

There is also a demo version available, and it's on Android, Ouya, and iOS:

Amazing game, great work man.
How is it on IOS, I was under the impression that apple only allowed Objective C/C#/C++ and .net languages (if you used monotouch)?
