That is a great video!
haha, does it use node for anything other than serving the assets? | |||
Love this game, nice touch bringing it to the browser. It's loads more fun in person with friends.. but who says you cant use this at a party :) | |||
Cool idea, needs more instructions. I caught on after a few rounds. I've played some similar games before on my phone :) | |||
Thanks! We were channeling WarioWare here, which gives even less instruction than we did -- the point being the games are so fast you can learn & apply the next time you see it.
In terms of the design, the campy design was intentional (again inspired by WarioWare), but yes, none of us are designers in any way. One star is fair :)
We're sad that our other game types didn't make the cut, which included cooperative play between the other online players. Hoping release those soon after judging...
I'll throw you another star on design ;) the wario ware stuff is so bizarre!
Wish there was a button that allowed me to "subscribe" to entries so i can keep up with them after the contest --- hey maybe thats next years project :D
I didn't understand it at all :F Guest login just sent me back to the sign in page after a few seconds. once I got in i had no idea what to do :( | |||
Thanks for your reply.
You're right, I should write a manual at first.
Seems like fun, nobody was a round to battle though :( Maybe speed the movement/animations up. | |||
I need this on a daily basis ;) Unfortunately I got an error trying to auth :( | |||
Sorry about that. We are having issues with the Foursquare tokens.
Couldn't get past the auth step, i made it to a page that said i wasn't supposed to be there :F If you can get me past that step ill update my vote. | |||
Sorry to hear that! I've tested the app again with several twitter accounts and browser. It worked for me :-/
Could you please try to login with a Chrome or Firefox in Incognito mode mode? Probably theres is some crazy issue with a cookie?
:( same issues, lots of other peoples entries drop you off at an ugly error.. at least yours matches :]
Tried with incognito also

This is a cool concept. I wish I could get it to work :| The first project me and my team came up with was going to be setup similarly, you would need a "big screen" and you could use your smart phone as a controller :] | |||
Where exactly is it stalling out for you?
And yeah! A few of the other projects worked along similar lines, either to play games or as remote controls for on-screen content. Neat stuff.
Watched the demo, so my vote is based on that. I got an error when authing, and then 500s when trying to add my url. I'm going to keep my eye on this. It seems tremendously useful. Hope you plan on working on this after the voting is over! | |||
Getting an internal server error when trying to auth.. anything I can do to work around? I'll rejudge if I can get past this step! | |||
Sorry, that's a bug happening in nodejitsu and I did not have enough time to fix it! (I've seen this in other Node KO projects too). Thanks for the stars though! ;D
Great idea. :D | |||
I love the idea! If only i could move around other than jumping. I was somehow only able to shoot right at my feet so I kept killing myself. I got stuck in deep space a couple times too :P | |||
Thanks for checking our the app Jason! We had to make a decision on either implementing jump or move during the final hours and unfortunately couldn't do both.
We definitely like to think that the getting stuck in deep space part is a feature :)
am I missing something.. is it a chatroom or something more? | |||
This is nuts. So, so cool. I didn't see the image update when I embedded the gif in other pages though. I'm totally going to dive into the code to see how it works. Great job! | |||
I'm going to open source the GIF encoder. Its pretty neat, you can create GIF's from any canvas. We just create frames with local color tables and the rest is done by node. :)
I saw you guys present on the live stream, so I have an idea of how it may work. Joined just now and had no clue what to do :[ I'll update my vote when I have some other people join me. | |||
im online now. if you pop into http://something-clever.nko3.jit.su/static/mock.html we can give it a shot
if you click create room you can see one block per connected peer
Dang, I saw some things happening.. not sure who triggers what :)
All the rooms say undefined, and i can't seem to join anything.
Also I'm sitting at my desk at work, so talking out loud is gonna make people think I'm crazy.
thanks for testing man! we were really close but didn't get the ui together at all by the last successful publish.
I LOVE this idea. Such a great tool. Design is awesome. I almost didn't authorize it with github due to the rights it wants/needs. - hope that doesn't hurt your voting. I'll be tweaking my code and reviewing it again ;) | |||
Now we're talkin, well done!
