The game is about throwing energy balls at everything.
More precisely, it's an Action-RPG with lots of puzzles.
With a planned length of at least 10 hours it's quite an ambitious project for HTML5, we think.
The tech demo won't show much of the RPG aspects, but you can see how puzzles and battles work.
Also, there is no sound so far. That will be added soon, though.
5-10 Minutes doesn't seem much for a whole year, but that is mostly because we did not simply use impact.js. Instead, we modified the engine quite a lot to exactly match the concept of the game.
Just a few things we changed:
- Complete rewrite of the collision engine to support 3D positions and more precise collisions for diagonal movement
- Complete rewrite of the rendering engine to render 2D Sprites with 3D positions
- Asynchronous loading of game data and assets during the game (e.g. whenever the location changes)
So it's not really the original impact anymore and we can't really use any of the more recent updates.
I still hope it will work with Ejecta though.
Anyway, I hope you like it! Looking forward to any feedback.
