I purposely wanted to keep the controls simple and comfortable so that even my young daughter could play, (the game will also support joystick input).
Coming back to James and Tony's earlier comments. One of the reasons I thought I'd share this project, (before it was finished), was recognising how much motivation I gained from looking at other people's projects. There's a kind of inspirational feedback loop.
It gives a bit of Christmas feeling to unwrap Bosco's prerelease And this looks and sounds fantastic! As someone mentioned, the keyboard control is particularly responsive. Those of you who only tried it on an emulator have to try the real thing! The sound is fat and catchy. Dang, now I have this Pokemon tune on my mind. And the great gamer I always was, I end up in the water pretty quickly every time... Looking forward to the next version!
