Can you resist the retro appeal of Pixel Slaughter!? (hint: no, you can't)

Play it here (latest build v0.5)

It's a game about shooting, pixelly gibs and nostalgy (not exactly in that order). It runs as an applet and is written using libgdx.
What do you think about it? Do you want more? Smiley

A quick check reveals that libgdx.jnilib is indeed missing from the mac native jars.

p.s. the al_errorcolor parameter is no longer used by lwjgl, so can be removed.

I love the polish but it's too frenzied for an oldie like me.
Good stuff tho... ...can you make the levels a bit wider (maybe scrolling?) so I can get to some good sniper spots?
Stickmen Wars 2 is in development.
Meanwhile try Bloodridge

Indeed it is... Unfortunately I don't own a Mac and can't build it myself.

Right, it's almost impossible to play without a mouse. I'll think about keyboard-only controls, with Liero/Worms style aiming.

My base idea was to make it an one-screen shooter, so I probably won't add any real scrolling.

Aim with your mouse, shoot with left mouse button. It's all explained in the tutorial.

Installation: +1 point if the game installs and uninstalls correctly
Stability: +1 point if the game doesn't crash ever
Presentation: +1 point if the game is slickly presented
Graphics: +1 point if the game has "good" graphics that suit the game
Sound: +1 point if the game has "good" sound that suit the game
Style: +1 point if the game's overall style is "good"

Innovation: +0 point if the game is original or brings a great new original twist - arena shooters are nice but not something very innovative.

Fun Factor: +0 point if your judge enjoyed playing the game - its decent but gameplay can get repetitive after a while of playing however nice for short bursts.

Completeness: +1 point if the game is complete enough that doesn't feel anything is missing - feel that there could be more added into the game to add even more re-playability see Super Crate Box.

Freebie: +1 point if you don't whine and you demand nothing of the mods (simply saying "can you rate my game please" is fine)

8/10

overall really and polished, IMO belongs in the featured section.

Here's the issue that's causing this, and the solution.

It grabbed my mouse, and somehow crashed. Leavin my locked mouse in the appletwindow.
This is not nice.

(Ubuntu 11.04, Sun 6 JRE, Chromium)

You should insert some exitkey for grabbing the mousepointer.

On Mac with Chrome, the screen remained black. Music played, however.

Simple reason for that, Apple made change to Java which broke all OpenGL applets, simple fix is to use LWJGL 2.8+, above game uses LWJGL 2.7.1 hence why it displays blank screen.

Sweet. Care to upgrade to 2.8, Thotep?
