Need feedback on new game ZoX Universe

[kshandja]

Hi , i need your feedback on this game that my friends and i made :)
Why ?

Because , the best way to find what is good and whats not is to ask the right people.
And this is the place where gamers are !!!
And who knows best then gamers :)

First off, your first YouTube link is broken. I also had trouble connecting to your website, but it seems to be working fine now (Edit - can't connect again).

It looks like a cute game, somewhat in the vein of Bomberman. The bombs moving the boxes around instead of destroying them is interesting, and being able to control how far you punt the bombs is good too.

I might have more feedback, but the demo is painfully short (30 seconds or so?). All of a sudden I was taken out of the game to a buy screen I had no obvious way of exiting (even clicking the buy link didn't close the program or bring me back to the main menu). I ended up having to Alt-Tab out and close it manually.

I know it's much easier said than done, but it would greatly improve this game if there were some way to play it other than having several people crowded around the same computer screen. Online multiplayer, computer players, or both.

Overall it doesn't seem like a very deep game, but for less than 10 Euros it's hard to criticize it too much on that account.

Oh, and a better in-game tutorial than what you currently have would be nice as well.

ok here is the link http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2MbWqOS1a4s

about exit from the credits screen i think that simple ESC button would do the job ,
sorry for not making it more obvious :)


So right now we are in the process of making the new version .

And there will be

AI opponents , ( not to feel alone :) )
6-7 different arenas , ( with different look and characteristics )
single player mode ,
different add ons , ( machine gun , jet pack , very BIG bat ... )
better keyboard mapping ( keypad A and S for jump and bomb , and cursor keys for moving )
