[GAME] LUV Tank

Son of Bryce · 02-27-2007, 05:24 PM

"In a world full of hate and anger, LUV is stronger than any bullet."

LUV Tank is a top-down shooter inspired by the Capcom classic, Gun.Smoke.

Play at... Newgrounds or My Deviantart, right now. Eventually Luvtank.com .

I'm proud to say that we did this in "spare" time in less than a month. Good times!

Getting server problems right now, of all times. I'm leaving the country today so I've got no time to make everything pretty.

Have fun!

Great, I was hoping someone would make a shooter with flowers, really!

Good the people say so much different things!

The bullets are a bit vanishing in the coloured background, I think I would make them grey or so.

Anyway, good message, good humor, good graphics, ok gameplay.

ahahaha, i love it.

Simple and fun, nice comments too

So was I! I was going to do one myself in fact (then again, I do plan on making every possible type of shooter at some point

)

Anyway, newgrounds isn't working for me, is that just me, or is it down? I’ll check out the game at the other link now.

Am I missing something here?

First off, it looks fantastic - the 2 narative sequences at the beginning and end are great. The music also works really well.

My only quibble would be the gameplay. Whilst it is really smooth it's just too easy and samey for me. And I don't know about you, bt every radiohead album since ok computer has made me more depressed, not less :S

nGFX · 02-28-2007, 06:00 AM

shish!
That was fun.
From the first look at the screenie, I wasn't sure if I wanted to give it a go, glad I did.

I like the ingame loop and although it was quite short, it wasn't intrusive.

... and it's very retro, indeed.

On the downside: I just played if for too long and now espresso is cold :| thanks.

Without having a religious, very principal, scientific proven or maggie simpson a-like opinion on this, I think you could say that violence in videogames is excessively (eng.?) used. Than if you start to wonder how to make a nice shooter without the bullets, you quickly come across the idea of flowers I guess.

topgunn · 02-28-2007, 12:31 PM

awesome game, i loved it. Gonna go to work and play it a lil longer =p

I would be one of the "student loan" guys, and after you shoot me i'd be the one that sings "que sera sera"

walsher · 02-28-2007, 12:55 PM

Very nice game dude. I love the style of the game. It's nice seeing that your doing good in the world rather than killing.

Eager Beaver · 02-28-2007, 01:48 PM

With this game every day is a valentine day!

I see. I was just a bit shocked that the hierarchy of projectiles went bullets>flowers... but thanks for the explanation.

argh!! i hated it!! im SOO ANGRY!!
[gets shot by luv tank]
this is the best game ever!!

topgunn · 02-28-2007, 06:14 PM

I kinda wish it was longer, but doing that in only a month I don't see how it would be possible to make it any longer. At any rate it's really good.
