[show] Serpents 2134AD - FK preview

hi folks,

one or two of you will certainly have seen serpents on the sn blog.

i thought it would be nice to gather some more oppinions before it will be finally released on the sn-site.

controls:
cursor keys
(see setup for more keys)

how to play:
move your serpent along the maze, collect all green energy balls, AND kill all golden snakes by chasing em up from behind ... sounds easy - is easy.

play Serpents 2134 AD

cheers, nGFX

ps:

there's a minor bug when scrolling through the background story, but i was too lazy to fix it in this version ...

NOTE: this is a FK preview only. NO linking from other sites!
and if we find the game linked on any site other than FK, we will kick the site owner where the sun does not shine

Very nice, its fun to play and a very interesting story. Im impressed that somebody could be so imaginitive as to make "snake" fun again. :) I only noticed one small thing. I died twice for no apparent reason. Both times I had doubled back on myself to try and duck down a column and get away from an enemy. Neither times did the enemy actually touch me, but I blew up all the same. It was on the third level.

Excellent job though, I really enjoyed playing it.

this will be about the tenth time i've said it, but its a great game. Have you changed the difficulty from before? or have i just improved?

cant wait to see the site:)

Wow. Very nice game.

Lol - I tried to view the swf directly (to see if I could download the file - everything goes too slowly in the browser), and I got this message:

Heh. A 'low quality' button would help - the browser's Flash Player is pretty slow, and my computer's not that great, either. How do you notify your server of infringements?

very nice and well polished game you have their. Beautiful graphics...especially those lightning bolts - very cool indeed.

Awsome game :) loved evrything about it, and the lightning effect was great :)

And so the stimunation take over begins...

Beautiful presentation, great gameplay, spot on graphics... This and Blink's games are just the best games posted here for ages.

Excellent work ( As ever ) mate,

Squize.

PS. The whole backstory was a work of pure genius ;)

i made something pretty similar on the spectrum a few decades ago. needless to say this knocks the socks off it. very slick mate. fun too :) i really shouldve read the help b4 i played it tho. wondered why i didnt complete the level after id collected all the dots...

I like the mix between snake and PacMan :) ... i was wondering if, in further levels, you woukld die by bitting your own tail ?

This should be a hit : simple and addictive !

Wow..Excelent !
I played a similar game about 10 yers ago. I always wanted to play it again.

Ooh boy! I played it yesterday and totaly forgot to reply, I'm sorry for that :)

What happened to that intro screen you showed before? :)

The game itself is very nice! It's al realy well polished, the sound, the graphic's and the gameplay. This is like one of those games that don't belong in the 'flash-games' list. Great work :D

SaphuA

yay! i made it to level2. nice and smooth, great graphics and most importantly addictive.:)

Really nice game!. Graphics are amazing and the game itself is pretty nice. Awesome work.

eeek! thanks for all the positive feedback.

and sorry for the late reply. (i was visiting a customer over WE and just left the plane 4h ago ...)

yep, sorry for that, but you have discovered a tiny part of the copy protection we use for sN (there are a lot of other checks implemented on the site, to prevent hotlinking and offline playing).

mhm, the game actually runs in LQ mode (not the menues and screens, though) but i used a lot of 24bit alpha channel effects and i felt that i rather trade speed for optics than using degraded (ugly) effects.

mrpauly99:
spectrum, wow, that's an old one ... i always liked the iso-adventures on it (mostly poorly ported to c64) - like head over heels ...

nope, but if you stay alive long enough, try to hunt down 5 enemy snakes at the same time ...

oh, i forgot to mention: bg story was provided by mr. pimp squize ...

thx again, <olli/>

ps: to limit leeching possiblilites, i will shut down the game in a day or two, so play it while you can :)

Superb! I guess Iam too late to quote as everything has already been said before.
