Not really a progress thread as the game is finished - well, maybe, in case I polish something for the multicart.

Already submitted.

blurb.txt

Code: Select all

Name:           Wo xiang niào niào

Submitted By:   na_th_an

Category:       1 (the contest)

Description:    Lin Lin knows the frog king won't be pleased until he receives 
                *at least* eight flies, and he's blocking the toilet. Gosh, 
                that's a bummer. So collect at least eight flies on your way 
                to the toilet (which is located uhm... straight to the right)
                and he'll let you pass.

                Baddies hurt you, but you can bounce on them with your butt.

                If you happen to get to the frog with more than 8 flies, you
                can play the bonus stage to gain some extra flies which will
                count for the second segment of the level...

                ... which has an autoadvancing scroll. Don't let the screen 
                go faster than you, RUN. And you still have to collect the 
                flies.

Controls:       D-pad: Movement
                Select: Continue (title screen)
                Start: Starts the game from the beginning (title screen)
                B: (During jump) butt button.
                A: Jump

Other:          There are 4 levels with two sections. When you use the continue
                option, the game will start on the level you were killed,
                section 1, no matter if you were killed on section 2.

                The game has some debugging cheats I couldn't be arsed to
                remove. You might find them.

I translate the title as "I wish to urinate".

And, apparently, your clothes fly off if you run into a bad guy. Poor Lin Lin.

From my point of view, it's a great name if you want to prevent mass copy from China.

I found a bug.

In the room with the toilet (where scrolling is stopped), you can run left off the screen and her head pops up somewhere in the bottom of the screen, like it didn't know where to put her.

BTW. I really like the mechanics of this game...bouncing off enemies to jump higher and get items is really fun.

I made it to 4-2 but this part seems to be impossible:

Ops - I'm sorry, it seems that Google Drive again played tricks on me. I fixed that part of the level, but on another computer. And it seems it didn't get updated in the one I used to submit the game.

100% my fault, sorry.

The game will be fixed for the multicart. Meanwhile, you were two screens away for the ending, so just press UP+A+B to activate the cheat and watch it.

Sorry again :(

What is UP + A + B supposed to do? (Where / when do I press this?)

That key combination just advances to the next level. I used it while debugging. I was telling you in case you want to experience the full game and watch the end sequence, as you can't reach it legally as the level map is bugged.

At least it happens in the last section of the last level of the game, so at least you got to experience everything, gameplay wise.

If I press it on the title screen it starts on level 3-1 instead of the beginning, but otherwise it doesn't seem to do anything during gameplay. Is there a special time or a special way to press it? Do I have to press the buttons in a particular order?

Ah, it seems to be UP + A + SELECT, ha ha I can see the little dance now.
