So I've created something that's kinda unlike anything I've ever done...and I'm very happy with the results!



Here's the game link:
http://www.yoyogames...ames/show/65934

"Boot up your Tandee Fun-puter 82' and save the world from the threat of global pollution. Steer the wind with hurricane strength, guide pollution into air purification centers, and rid the world of global warming once and for all!"

It's part strategy, part finesse, if that makes sense. Go out there and save the world!

YAY FIRST COMMENT - now to play the game, looks ace

I love the style, with the whole radar thing, and the techniques are clever indeed like mustering up the balls of pollution, only problem is my mouse is EXTREMELY Jerky so when i tried to do the whole moving the mouse thing i ended up ramming it into the balls of pollution and making them go into the atmosphere which made me smash my beer keg on my foot and curl into a ball because i kept losing , i blame USB mouses haha

The game is clever indeed but i found myself struggling to keep on playing because it seems a bit repetative, make the game so fast that everyone loses their vision because the balls of pollution move very slowly even with the mouse button down to make them go faster,after rekindling my beer keg (and bitter) i found that i could drink it all while the scenic music was playing in the background while the radar balls majestically floated towards the goal. nonetheless its just me heh.

the music choice is good too, it made it such a surreal experience... haha, i never thought i'd usher balls of pollution with a controlled hurricane with all the classical music, compose it to the filter factory beethoven!! ahaha aha... -cough-

8/10 - good game indeed

I'm not very good at writing reviews am I? ohh dear

Make it so that the mouse cannot come out of the screen. Anyways, good game, everything else worked out very well.
9.5/10

Holly woot! This game looks fabalous! Reminds me of Darwinia, one of my c.a. 20 favorite game! And I'm on the first page!

*playing, will edit afterwards*

EDIT! WOW! Nice visuals! And that music! Wow! Gameplay was a bit dissapointing, I expected a bit more... 8.7 overall, 9 for music and gfx, 8 for gameplay.

Awesome job Mr Chubigans. your stuff like Sandbox of God and ONR are what got me started on Game Maker.. and this doesn't fail to meet that level of quality of charm.

The style is pretty great, the interface and ambience really sets apart from most other games. The gameplay is a little repetitive, but it's still good and original. But great work, I could see this being a contender.

[Mr.Chubigans]

Thanks for the feedback! It was probably the most fun I've had making a game. I'd love to make more small experimental games like this, honestly. So much more fun than the year I spent on Spirits of Metropolis, hah.

Actualy, I think this game is some fun. But it is waaay to slow. Nice game though.

[barrya3]

This is lovely -- thematically relevant and beautifully done, it really is a nice game. I wouldn't say it is the most pure unadulterated fun I have had playing a GM game lately, but it is certainly one of the most rewarding and interesting. I hope this is the kind of game you get a chance to make more of -- experimental games can be a lot of fun.

[Schtauffen]

Very nice sir,
I'm going to go ahead and say this is by far my favorite GM game I've played yet

[Hach-Que]

Unfortuntaley, I found this game quite boring. I played it for about 5 minutes, because I lost interest. I guess it just wasn't fast-paced enough for me

Still though, I see YYG picking this as one of the top 3.

Congrats Chubi, front page of 'Jay is Games' Weekend Downloads: http://jayisgames.com/

[Mr.Chubigans]

Whoa! That's incredibly awesome.

Thanks for the link!

[dadio]

Love it.
Especially the original/unusual visuals.
Best game of the comp I think (generally love all your stuff).
Keep up the great work!

PS: Very best of luck with your commercial venture - but can`t help but think that possibly you might be better off trying to commercially promote/sell an original/unusual game like GreenTech... not so much for the casual portal space but more the hardcore gamer croud (rather than a "Match 3" type game which has so much direct competition/comparisions?)

I'm starting to wonder about that myself really. That's a very good point.

Live and learn I suppose.

[masterofhisowndomain]

Or you could market something like Sandbox of God 2 or Ore No Ryomi 3..

I can't run YYG games atm from this computer, so I will play it shortly.

[Mr.Chubigans]

greenTech is now being featured in the Cage Match. Thanks for the support so far!

[AndyWiltshireNZ]

Hope you don't mind me putting your game forward for the cage match chubi

Hey thanks man, I really appreciate it!

[AndyWiltshireNZ]

I was pushing to get that Most Played title off you for competition04, but have inadvertantly reduced my chances putting you up in the cage match lol

Good luck mate!

Greater than I expected, awesomeness at it's pure state. ^^
