UFO Tree Cutters

Posted by Gimmick - May 15th, 2011


I'm starting a new project called "UFO Tree Cutters".
I have no idea how that idea saw the light of day, but atleast it's good.

So far, the ban I got from Coop turned out to be good, as I was more productive since I had a load of free time; I've got the idea, and I've got the concept ready, as well as finished making the logo and menu already.

It'll have 18 levels, and to tell the truth: It's basically like that game from the game jam where you have to drop a shark from a helicopter for an internet connection, except in this case, it's a chainsaw ball being dropped from a UFO, knocking down trees (hence the treecutters in the title) like skittles.

There's an implicit message as well that's conveyed: Deforestation's being carried out all the time, and we can do something about it by planting trees.

People can join in by beta testing as well, if they want to.

LIST OF CREDITS: (Whoa, I might be counting my chickens before they hatch here!)
Coop (for extending my ban time so that I had some free time to think about it)
Asandir (Beta testing as well)
That game from the game jam (as inspiration)
Game jam (that made the above possible, in turn making my idea happen)

EDIT: added asandir to beta testing list; not a chainsaw "ball" anymore, real chainsaw.
EDIT 2: Turns out that you can play the level once; retry ingame and errors pop up. I'll fix this later today.

So, you are currently banned? Good to see that you use your time to be productive, if you have made a playable beta, I would test it, if you want.

Okay, and thanks!
I don't know why, but the BBS saps most of my productivity even if it's slow.

Thanks man, I'm up for Beta testing if you want.

Okay, I'll send you the level 1 file.
