Contest Entry: DYOX
« on: August 11, 2006, 11:55:13 AM »
Hello,

Here's my entry for the Summer Coding Contest at neoflash.com.  It's a simple but fun puzzle game called DYOX.  Aside from the main menu, the game is very complete.  It includes 15 levels, cutscenes, and an actual storyline.

The game was written in C, compiled with gcc using the PSP toolchain.  Everything in the game was created by me.  There is more info in the ReadMe.

Info:

Just to let you know, I will be out of town and off of the internet for the next 2.5 weeks.  I should be back online before Sep. 1, but please don't worry if I take a few extra days to respond to emails.

Thanks,
Andy E. (ColdPie)

Note to QuickJump: I also submitted this to your Summer Homebrew Competition, so please bear that in mind if you choose to write an article about it on PSPUpdates.  Thank you!

No, but it's based on a similar idea; hence the name.  Dyox itself is very different from Oxyd, except that you control a ball rolling in a square-based environment.  In Oxyd, you had to open the oxygen containers; in Dyox, you have to reach the finish.  They're simliar but different, just like the names Smiley

Thanks for the kind words.  I wanted to have 20 or 30 levels finished, but I ran out of time to reach the contest deadline.  It's difficult to think up new puzzles for each level.  It takes about 2 hours just to design a clever, working puzzle, and another hour to program it into the game.  Fun, but time-consuming.

There is a bug or two, and one misspelling, so I'll be putting together a fixed version soon.  I'm still moving into my new apartment, though.  Check brightnightgames.com for updates and etc.
