Colosseum: Xbox live indie games: gameplay as played by Sebastian Badylak

[quickcheckcoke]

Just got this game a week ago I'm REALLY impressed with the graphics probably the best I've ever seen for an indie game, controls are pretty simple, and there is a wide variety of costumes and weapons over i give this game 5/5. Keep up the good work.

The game is great. The only thing that could use some work is the camera. I don't like the far away look. It kinda defeats the purpose of all the armor choices that way. And the control scheme reminds me of Too Human which is a good thing. I liked that game as well.

Just downloaded this game and i'm impressed, loving the control system.... simple for beginners but with more advanced if you want to start using more combos.... probably the best community game i've seen in most aspects.

[Shortfusegames]

how nice to hear! we just had a discussion here 2 minutes ago about how half of the internet seems to love our game, while the other half hates it with a passion. crazy, i tell you. well, thanks either way, hope you had a good time with it!

hey in the multiplayer menu their are eight open slots. is there a way to use them in anyway? because there's no xbox live with this game...

[Shortfusegames]

hmmm you must be referring to the custumization slots?

where you can make and save your fav. characters?

or is it maybe choosing AI?

sometimes throwing a few AI in the multiplayer mix makes it more interesting!!!

have fun!!!

[Shortfusegames]

yeej 1000 views! but... wheres the other 4000?

[Paytoneo]

I'm satisfied with this game its much better than any of the other community games out there. My favorite thing about this game is multiplayer, especialy the fact that you can ulock more equipment within multiplayer games and not just single player. the only flaw i see in this game is the fact that blocking has kind of a delay so its not that helpful in a group of enemies. but its still usable in one on ones. overal this game fun and addicting for only 400 microsoft points.

[benozkleenex]

WOW its really fun if you mae a 2 or something take a look at colosseum road for fredom on the ps2 i would buy it those grphic with the costumisation of road to freedom i would give 1600 point for but this one is good too

It's a very solid game overall and I was glad to make the purchase. I just wish the text was a little bigger in the menus/cutscenes.

[Shortfusegames]

thanks! glad you liked it! the problem with the font size is improved in our latest release, it came up about a week ago. if you purchased it before that you should be able to download the new version, with fewer bugs and bigger text... with emphasis on should, i'm not sure how well this system works right now...

[ZamuelNow]

Yes, the update is available with a simple re-download. The problem is that it overwrites your saved progress in the game. I don't know if that's due to the way XNA/Community Games is setup or if there is some way to create a specialized save file in future games to avoid this.

Luckily, I wasn't that far along so I didn't lose that much.

Good job guys. So far this is the first community game I've come across that isn't a boring, horrendous pile of garbage :D

I've been planning to make one, but I've kinda had an idea for an mmorpg. And I don't think I could put that up on the community games, since it might need servers. I'd probably have to talk to microsoft people about it. Or just keep it on the computer. And it will take yearsss. But I'll figure something out.

[Shortfusegames]

thanks! glad to hear you found us!

As for your idea for the mmorpg, it might prove to be hard. as far as i know, microsoft has set a limitation to 30 people playing online on community games, and servers are not really offered either. my tip to you is either go PC or try to pitch it to microsoft as a LIVE arcade title... well good luck and go to work on that game!!!:)

[Shortfusegames]

EliteHidersHLG: i think you should! the community has produced som pretty amazing stuff this far, and im sure there's alot more to do!!!

mattye2k7: sorry, but the answer to this question is no. the exact reason for this is unclear, but since microsoft has no real control over what the community game creators come up with, it would obviously be hard to make sure those achievements are done the right way...

[mattye2k7]

can u get achievements on community games?

[EliteHidersHLG]

Im thinking of making my own Community Game
