The Regenerator

S'up guys.

I released a game on Google Play for Android devices. It's a short and simple platformer with a Candy Box-inspired health system.

If you use Android, give it a try and then critique me.

Spoiler below!

As a final clarification, the mods have come to the decision that if someone is advertising their own work on the site (Regardless of if it's commercial or not) it will be allowed IF the person who made the thread has already been a member of the community for a "good while" (This is mostly subjective, but I doubt there will be too many conflicting opinions on what counts). If the person who made the thread has done nothing else on the site besides post their work, then it gets removed.

So if anyone's thread (For older members) was removed before due to the "un-refined" version of this rules, you are all allowed to put them back up! If in doubt PM a mod!

Seems interesting, will try it out.

Edit: Tried it out for a couple of minutes. Something I noticed, was how the character kind of just slides around like on the super mario ice levels when you walk normally, but when you jump you lose momentum and freeze on the spot for a short while - were talking milliseconds here, but it's still noticable, so the controls gets kind of frustrating after a while.

Otherwise, I like the concept, the health system is pretty cool. It's a fun platformer that could get better with more managable controls.

Thanks.

I noticed the momentum loss when testing as well. Somewhere in my physics engine's code is a sequence of assignments that causes this, but I haven't been able to figure out how to fix it.

Can't help myself but to wonder: why is our protagonist so depressed?
Otherwise very creative game, I liked it. Was worth spending one night playing.

Thanks.

Due to its regenerative abilities, the protagonist is depressed because it can only die by being impaled brutally on spikes.

Anyone mind giving me a rating on the store?

Gave me a very enjoyable 15 min, which is a compliment as that's the longest I've ever played any Android game in one sitting.

The mechanic is intetesting and fun. I think it would need some kind of illustrative visuals and a story to get me really hooked. Also,the combination of my mid-sized Android phone and my fat thumbs mean that the left and right buttons are a wee bit too close together for comfort.

All in all, though, a great little game, especially considering it is free and has no ads!

Looks nice. Will try, then I'll write a post.

Just beat the game. The boss battle was very enjoyable and I thought it was pretty funny/interesting that he was the opposite of our protagonist. A true rival. Would be cool with an alternate story line where you play as him and have to run into health instead of avoid them.
