Help us designing the next "Platformines" free playable demo

[magikogaming]

TOPIC HAS BEEN UPDATED TWICE -SEE BELOW-

Hello,
Our current free playable demo is "Platformines - Beta 2".
Since thousands of gamers have tested it, and we have not been reported of crashes (nor numerous bugs), we plan to release "Platformines - Demo".

The main changes will be:
- At least 10 official achievements to succeed in (exposed and stored in a specific screen)
- Interactions with social networks (Steam Greenlight, Twitter, Facebook) to promote "Platformines" in-game

We'd like you, our collunity, to suggest NEW ACHIEVEMENTS.

Thank you to help us!

Sometimes you need a little less gun - give your pistol some love by scoring X kills within a reasonable amount of time.

and they said this was a crap weapon - Score a kill with the starting pistol (the one the tutorial makes you swap out)

no area unexplored - fill a certain amount of the map in.

fully loaded! - attain and equip all weapon types

[magikogaming]

Yeah, I like your ideas. Particularly:
- "Sometimes you need a little less gun" (5 character killed in one minute ?)
- "no area unexplored" (Discover 1 quarter -1 half ??!- of the accessible areas ?)

"fully loaded" could be great in the final release, but it'd be a little odd in the demo (since Bazooka will not be attainable)
"and they said this was a crap weapon" is humorous. Maybe is it a little equivalent to "Sometimes you need a little less gun" ??

[indienerd]

putting in one achievement you can only "almost" get might be just the trick to get people buying it ;)

[magikogaming]

Hehe, you're right ;) Have you got a more precise idea ? (I tried but cannot find a matching achievement for now...)

[magikogaming]

I add a new one:
Lucky explorer - Find THE unique diamond which is randomly set in the mines (or -even harder...- inside a loot)

[zaltog]

im gonna get an idea for an ACHIVMENT !!! gonna think every sec

[Lunick]

I love all these ideas you have and don't think I could think of any more!

[Melanc]

Maybe "Gunslinger": Kill 6 enemies with a pistol without reloading
Or "Ka-blam": Kill 3 or more enemies in 1 shotgun blast (I don't think I've managed this, myself!)

Will more areas be opened up in the demo?

[kevinski]

Nice to hear that you didn't get any reports of crashes or anything. I didn't have any issues with the beta, but I do wish you could full-screen the game. My resolution is 1366x768, and the taskbar in Windows 7 always obscures some of the game window.

Anyway, how about an achievement for dealing a certain amount of damage without taking any damage yourself?

[magikogaming]

@Melanc:
"Ka-blam" sounds good -with 2 enemies- (can be done, but "strategy" is needed). I add it to the updated suggestions. Thanks!
"Gunslinger" does not seem to be achieved as it is. I could try to consider it with less enemies.

BTW, I do not plan to open more areas in the demo for now.

[magikogaming]

@kevinski:
I agree with you, full-screen must be considered in the final release.
I like your suggested achievement. Adding it to the list, thanks!

[magikogaming]

I add a new one:
"Machinegun master": Hit beholders (flying eyes) 20 times in a row with a machinegun, without losing any bullet (outside beholders)
Maybe you could suggest another achievement title for this one ?

[[REB] Clockwork Spyder]

What about "Ow! My Eye" "Machinegun Dead Eye" "Eye of the Tiger" or something along those lines?

[magikogaming]

I like "Eye of the Tiger" because it holds the reference to the beholder, and suggests to aim correctly. Validated ;)

[magikogaming]

I add a new one:
"Try to escape" - Complete the Robodig at its maximum using BlockCanon#1 and BLockCanon#2
