Night of the Cephalopods - two minutes of gameplay

[gatehearing]

Looks awesome.

[MRCAB]

Nice game. Only, one of my pet peeves with top-down 2D games like this, is when enemies can walk at angles and the player can't. It's unnecessarily frustrating.

[Disfigurator]

Really nice game - narrative works so strong, that I cannot do anything but want more.

Respect!

Thanks! we've got plans to do something bigger with this in the future, though right now we're concentrating on the Guerrilla Gardening game.

You might also want to check the spookysquid website, I have a co-op game set in the same universe called Cephalopods Co-op Cottage Defence, the version available for download isn't final (no voices) but it's playable and a lot of fun if you can get a friend to join you.

[Devr0ss]

What are you developing in?

[spookysquidgames]

Hi Devr0ss,

Night of the Cephalopods was made using Gamemaker 7.

[spookysquidgames]

Hi CaptianMCcool send me an email (you'll find the address at the bottom of the site for notc) with some details of exactly what's happening and I'll help you out.

You have GOT to make more of this!

[TentacleSex]

[spookysquidgames]

Thanks!

cool concept but i have a mac! i would love to be able to play this game either as a flash game or an actual download.

[spookysquidgames]

I'd love to have a Mac or Flash version of the game out there, unfortunately both are outside of my skills. Hopefully sometime in the future though!

[rmassink]

wow, great idea! It really gives a whole new dimension to the gameplay. Hope to see more of this.

[spookysquidgames]

Thanks! I'll be making a larger version so you will see more :)

[Ifritcrisis]

It reminded me of Heart of Darkness to a certain extent! Bravo!!

[spookysquidgames]

The book? The game? Either way thanks!

[Ifritcrisis]

The book! hehehe The inner monologues before the attack, to be more specific.

Congratulations again :)

It's a really good voice actor you got there.

I am downloading the game now. Looking forward to it.

[spookysquidgames]

Thanks, I was really lucky to get Scott Moyle for the narration. You can hear him and several other talented voice actors on the Decoder Ring Theatre podcast, well worth looking up.

Hope you enjoy the game!

[spookysquidgames]

Thanks, and yes there will be more!
