factory balls 4, an update
Time for an update on my recent game factory balls 4: the game is almost 2 weeks old now and is doing really well, getting great reviews and lots of plays. Did you already complete the game? If you did, you'll have noticed there's a bonus round in the end where you can create your own factory ball. I'm writing this little post to let you know that I'm showcasing the nicest creations I get, like the one below, on the bontegames facebook page, so if you haven't done so already go give the bontegames facebook page a like and stay up to date on everything about bontegames! (And while I'm doing some promo I might as well remind you can follow me on twitter and google+ as well, there you go!)
nice !
ReplyDeleteI was thinking that user created submissions would make the game endless. But alas, I don't use FB.
ReplyDeleteAwesome! And i love that tintin video on your facebook page :-)
ReplyDeleteBefore I go there...does this let you use the tools or just paint lines like before?
ReplyDeleteThe bonus round let's you paint on the ball in different colors.
ReplyDeleteA bonus round where you can use all the tools was technically not possible. There are too much combinations and too much combinations that don't make sense.
Bart,
ReplyDeleteI did mess around with the paint last time, but it's too messy just drawing colored lines with a pointer.
Will you be bringing back the grass and flower seeds for Factory Balls 5? Those were the most challenging.
I'm so glad your game is getting such positive attention! Congratulations, Bart!
ReplyDeleteBart, can't you please let us create our own balls using the glasses, belt and other tools? Then you can try and work out how we did them and you get your own factory balls game to play and show the one you like best :-) Plus to be honest I just love playing around with this game.
ReplyDeleteOops sorry, just read your comment. Fair enough :-( Will have to wait for Christmas 2012 version? ;-)
ReplyDeletemy two cents:
ReplyDelete1: too easy; 2: too easy: 3: too repetitive.
Do something creative: for the christmas season, add some moose-balls or add some hats to the balls. I am bad at drawing, so I cannot create something and post it here. The idea with 'Angry Birds' was nice, but you should add some other ones as well.

ReplyDeleteAlso it's true that it was too easy.
And as much as I hate grass, it's also true that it's challenging becuse when you fuck over, you msut restart. Here you could just paint the ball white and restart it again =S
i love that game. my faveret ball was the one that looked like an angry bird.
ReplyDeletei hope you make more soon
