XCVB: Newgrounds Game Jam 9 Game Done Good

[Anonymous]

Hey guys,
For this year’s Newgrounds Game Jam 9 I had both the time and inclination to make two games for it.(Since it was a two week jam). One was made in Stencyl(highly recommended for those interested in starting into the game making process, it’s way better than scratch).
One of those games managed to do the round quite well on the site, getting over 40,000 views/plays.
The game’s name also represents the main control scheme of the game, gathering inspiration from games like Super Hexagon and Swift*Stitch.

It also represents my learning of Flixel and AS3 during the Jam with Flixel being amazing for making games, and once again highly recommended when you take into account that Adobe Air Allows for mobile deployment)

Check it out on newgrounds or gamejolt.

Currently given it’s relative success I’ve decided to continue on with the idea and expand upon in a sortof sequel called Super XCVB.
Information @xcvbStudios on twitter.

Jams make for great prototyping time(especially weeklong or so ones as you can get a toy + some polish as opposed to just the toy in a 48hr)

Cheers,
