Luigi's Pipe Panic
preview
By: Pedigree [E]
Luigi's Pipe Panic is a concept inspired by Minigame Competition #18: Pipes and is my entry into the competition. The concept will likely by fully developed into a minigame as part of my larger project, Luigi's Labyrinth.

In Luigi's Pipe Panic, you must escape the pipe and move on. Unable to jump, you must utilize powerups to avoid obstacles. In this demo, the haunted arrows (Upsie and Downsie) will allow you to switch between walking on the bottom and top of the pipe. This allows you to maneuver around the bones which will kill you when you touch them. In level two there is another one that allows you to use it to switch gravity continuously. Simply press up and down when you are near them.

I really liked this game, the concept is strange which is good. And it seems like it would have been hard to make a fun game with it, which is also good. You executed it perfectly. Three things I'd like to point out though:
•It would be nice if the background had some context or atleast coincided with the titlescreen.
•I have a feeling people will get confused about why luigi is so slow on top of the pipe, although it makes sense.
•All the graphics look great except, there's something strange about the title screen, and the pipe's lighting makes no sense at all. However the pipe isn't a big deal.
I give this game a ☻/10

EDIT: Would like to add, resize the hitbox or fix it in some way please.

+ Good content
- Short game
- Annoying game play
= I didn't really enjoy it.
I would suggest to add more to this "mini" game.
Have a nice day!

Short game? Did you miss the following as seen above? "Completion: Demo"

Also, how does it annoy you?

You did say this was one mini game to a whole entire game that is being developed.

What annoys me about this game is the top down feature + the boo that comes after you. I probably would have made everything about timing.

I don't want to be an ***hole but this mini game didn't seem to be worth the upload.
EDIT: Taking the game slow or fast didn't help me get passed the boo. You can die a lot in a game but if your dying every 5 seconds something is wrong.

It is about timing with the boo, maybe you just didn't play very well. If the top down feature annoys you so much, I can only guess that you kept coming down on spikey bones. To be honest, you are being an asshole about it. This game won the minigame competition and it is a D-E-M-O. If you don't think it's worth the upload, then don't waste my time by commenting on it as I could care less whether you think it is worth an upload or not.

If you're going to put that into a bigger game... Seems like an intermission between areas, that sounds like a good idea?
