The Factory
A downloadable game for Windows

 Hi, I'm Stefano Terranova (yes I'm italian) and I'm currently developing a game called The factory.

The factory is a top-down action platformer game.

 I start this game with a simple idea, collecting crystals.

Then I added: obstacles to the goal of collecting crystals, a death counter, a time counter, a score and I throw everything in to stages.

There are mainly four types of obstacles:

  • Lasers
  • moving platforms
  • disappearing platforms
  • blocks that can crush the player

Since the game was build around the concept of collecting I make another three types of collectables, the green crystal, the key and the stagegoal the generator.

A haven't yet implemented this functionality but what are this collectable for?

  • blue crystal (game currency), to buy more lives and upgrades that increase the minimum distance to collect crystals
  • green crystal, if you collect all of them, a reward will be given to you
  • key, to activate consoles
  • generator, the level goal that complete the stage (the only functionality implemented so far)

Now I'm in a state were I would like to get feedback to understand what direction this game should get, so please if you would like to play the game, play it and leave me some feedback.
