a new bonte game: 14 locks

So what is happening again this evening? A new bontegame of course! Enjoy 14 locks! Can you unlock all the 14 locks? Look around using your mouse or trackpad, move forward or backward using the cursor keys. Explore your enviroment and click the correct 3-digit code on the keypad on the door in each room. This game needs the Unity webplayer, so if you don't have it, please take a moment to install, it's a one time painless operation. If you enjoy the game please share it, thanks! Cheers!

How exciting!

janaina said...

loading..
i hate loading!

Rava said...

Here we go!

Jessica said...

Whoa! Not sure if it's just a coincidence or if it's the game, but as soon as it started loading, it sucked all my virtual memory and my browser froze and crashed.

esm480 said...

i dont like waitinggggggg. i love your games bart, but are you gonna do a lot more in unity?

Anonymous said...

The game appears to reset itself randomly or when I bump into any wall.

Carly said...

I really didn't want to install unity because my computer is old and not very appreciative of new stuff, but for you Bart, I'll do it. Thanks for the new game! Here we go....

Geert said...

6 locks to go... stuck!

Anonymous said...

.. I really wanted to play this game. But as someone said the game appears to reset itself randomly or when I bump into any wall. So I can't play it. I hope u fix it. 'Cause this game seems to be really good without that bug.

Rob G said...

It booted me back to the beginning at around the 5th lock, and now it's bugging and won't let me out of the first room.

I think it might be because I accidentally switched to using WASD instead of arrow keys? Every time I hit A it resets.

Rob G said...

In addition to what I said in my previous comment - I also see the sky through the door!

Bart said...

when you're using WSAD keys instead of cursors keys, 'A' key resets the game -> fixing this bug right now!

Anonymous said...

confused on the 12locks level... a hint perhaps?

Anonymous said...

WELL DONE!

YOU UNLOCKED ALL THE 14 LOCKS!

I HOPE YOU ENJOY THIS 3D EXPERIENCE I CREATED FOR YOU!!

Sure i DO! one of your best games BART! BRAVO!

meloxu ;)

Rava said...

Finished! Bart YOU'RE THE BEST! I loved this game!!!! Listen to me, you've got nothing more to learn about Unity! XD

Obviously waiting for other great games of yours!

Bart said...

the WSAD keys/resetting bug is fixed! so if you were having issues please reload, cheers!

Anonymous said...

hint: try refering to your number pad...

Carey said...

Not a long game, but still fun! Glad we got to share in your unity learning experience!

EvilNorton said...

Guys soz but 8 locks level hints at all? Im guessing its 2 do with stairs.. ive tried some numbers tho and its not working. Also I must admit Im not a big fan of unity but ya know its still a good game :P Bravo Bart, you've made my hatred for unity slightly less :P

Geert said...

@meloxu: thx. 3 locks to go!

Anonymous said...

I have Unity, but the game is now been loading for 12 minutes. Surely that's not the intention, or is it?

Anonymous said...

love the game! just stuck at 6 locks. help?

Anonymous said...

im stuck on 10 locks.. hint pleasee

Nichole said...

CHEERS!

Riiick said...

I enjoyed the game, but it would be nice if WASD controls worked (the WSD work, but the A key resets the game).

Cheers Bart!

Anonymous said...

rick, bart fixed this problem, you just need to refresh the page

Bart said...

@Riiick I already fixed that 'A' key problem, if you refresh the page it should be fine

Riiick said...

I've just noticed you said you have fixed the WASD bug, so now the game is even better!

Jonna said...

Sorry Bart, got to be honest, I do not like this on. I´m not very fond of more than two dimensions and I like games to be more cartoonlike... Clever game thought, but not my cup of tea. Also when using stairs i found myself falling backwards and had to climb down in order to go up again.

Bart said...

No problem :) I made this game just to learn some Unity. Next game is going to be flash 2d again.

Geert said...

stuck at the last one...

Lulu said...

i like the locks idea, but the movement of the game is making me nauseous. :( Determined to finish though, stuck on last lock...

William said...

Finished. This was a nice little experiment. I hope you find time to explore the Unity technology further, Bart.

Carly said...

Cheers, Bart! Great game! I loved the 721 room, what a great idea! Super game and well worth the download. I might even go back and try the other unity player games you've posted in your blog ;)

Oh and yes, this one was a bit short, but very imaginative. Nice one, Bart!

Geert said...

any hint on the last lock?

Anonymous said...

2locks is very hard. :|

Rava said...

@Geert: let's say this: have you looked ALL around? Behind every corner? :)

Geert said...

@Rava :-)
Thx

Riiick said...

As an aside, my only complaint is that Unity doesn't run on Linux. Unfortunately I realise that for web games if you want to do something more than Flash then Unity is the only option. Have you considered doing any downloadable games (preferably cross platform!).

Geert said...

Finished!
Nice one Bart! (and yes, I was still reading this :-) )

Anonymous said...

Agh, I feel so dumb but the 3rd level (12 locks) is giving me trouble...

Anonymous said...

To hell with downloading unity CRAP! I have enough junk on my computer for another flash player to load it down with more stuff and pop ups...I'm passing on this one. Besides the comments don't seem very favorable.

Anonymous said...

will this unity hurt a computer ?

Bartfan said...

The design of each room is so great, it made me determined to get through each door so I could see the light effects and colour of the next stage.
A brilliantly original idea, very creatively implemented and with the usual Bonte sense of fun.
Thanks so much Bart, another completely new idea.

Anonymous said...

for 12 locks, try looking at the 3d shapes in the middle, especially see what the middle shape resembles. think of them as if they were trees and you cut a slice of the trunk off, what shape would that slice be?

Anonymous said...

can someone help with 10 locks? i have been trying for half an hour and I am dumbfounded

Anonymous said...

-I feel stupid, I can't find it for lvl 3. I am such an idiot.

@Anonymous: Carefully look at that columns... :)

Ops, already said... I should refresh more often! :D

rava can you help me with the 5th level? 10 locks, i would appreciate it greatly

Any help on 2locks?

Anonymous said...

I'll skip this one....I hate having to download another add on more stuff to jam up my computer. I'll go back to ponycorns and listen to the 5 year old cuss some more.

Rava said...

uhm... I don't remember all the levels... Can you describe the situation?

Anonymous said...

Sorry, i can't do 12 locks, i have looked at the middle shapes but any of the codes won't work. Any one?

Anonymous said...

@rava
it is a brown room with yellow pieces running along the walls and ceilings, it looks like they spell out a 7 or something, there are 2 stairs, and the room is pretty much open no really winding parts

Fitz said...

Expecting to hunker down for a couple of hours but breezed through pretty quickly. Fun game though. Good work.

Miss Piggy said...

I had a problem with the brownish room when I had seven locks left. I fell off of the platform, and got stuck. Whatever I pressed it wouldn't let me move anywhere, even after spinning the camera.

Other than that, it's a great game. Challenging, but not too hard.

Voszy said...

It's a big room, with black/white walls. There are some brown blocks in the room.

Rava said...

@anonymous: you're already on the right way with those yellow pieces on the ceiling!

Rava said...

@Voszy: The brown (black?) columns in the middle are the key. Look at them carefully...

PK said...

Sorry. I'm a casual webgame player, so while I don't mind waiting for a Flash game to load, I'm not willing to install a whole new type of software just to check out this game.

So Bart, just a heads up that the Unity player thing has kept one person from trying it. But I hope everyone who does play it loves it!

PK

Anonymous said...

None of the codes will work on lvl 3. *sigh* someone please help. It is like 7 8 4 or something, anyway it wont work

Rava said...

@Anonyomus: maybe it's not a 7... :D

@Safire: Yes, it's seems that for tonight my job is music listening and "refresh" pressing! XD

Here I was looking forward trying to this game until I see you have to download something else to play it..I'm like PK not worth it.

Anonymous said...

I STILL HAVE ABSOLUTELY NO IDEA HOW TO GET PAST 12LOCKS LEVEL. no idea.

Anonymous said...

im stuck on three locks... it is the room with the big purple drop in the middle and the room in the inside of the purple thing, the walls of the room are brownish with a yellow piece running around it

Rava said...

@Anonymous: Look into the previous post... there's a big help about that level.

Anonymous said...

In 8 locks you count the steps right?
-Safire

Bart said...

Ok, one more try to convince the Unity sceptics :) The Unity webplayer is just a one time painless installation, just like you once had to do with the Flash player. Believe me, Unity is growing and you will see a lot more Unity on the web.
If you don't want to install, no hard feelings :) my next game is going to be Flash again. I made this game because I wanted to learn Unity.

Jade Green said...

Can anyone give me a hint for 6locks? My brain can't seem to figure this one out...

Very nice, Bart!

@Safire: Yes, and if you're sure of having count the right number but it still doesn't work, maybe... you missed a step! :D

Anonymous said...

For 14 locks look in the corner at ur first turn

OhHellYes said...

Can get a bit of motion sickness, 14 locks are enough. Clever and none were too difficult to make me want to quit. Lock 8 was the hardest to figure out. Great Job!!

So Bart, factory Balls 4 coming soon!!
Glad to see that message in the credits. Love that series.

Rava said...

@Jade Green: which is 6locks?

Anonymous said...

I too shall pass on this one as mentioned above by others in the blog. I'm one of the sceptics. Sorry Bart I'll wait for your next flash 2d game.

Thanks Bart!

Oooook, time to go sleeping... So tired after such a hard work! XD

Finished! A bit tricky on maybe 2 rooms, but overall a nice game. Thanks Bart! :-)

Stuck on 9locks (the one with the bumps on the ground). I think it has to do with the number of bumps, but I tried 548 and it didn't work. I am gonna feel like a huge idiot if it turns out I just miscounted.

By the way. I didn't had to install unity at all. I just could play!? How come?
And no, I never installed unity before.

I played for less than 30 seconds and it made me terribly dizzy. I'm not a fan of this one. Just two small words can sum up this game...

EPIC FAIL!

great game as usual, bart! yes, got a bit dizzy with the spinning rooms, but that's half the fun, isn't it?! :D

Well I was going to play this game, but it appears I'm one of the minority who use Linux...

No Unity3d player for Linux, it doesn't work in my windows virtual machine and doesn't work when I use firefox under wine.

Guess I'll never know if it really was a good game.
