Homebrew of the year 2004

[obelisk]

holy cow... tough one. bugs is like tops, but in 2004 i played quite a bit of revolver in 2k4... also, i suppose that bTime is / may be a clone/ port but it does rock too. grrr... yeah, revolver. pow.

My vote goes to Tetris 2: make your own themes, swap in your audio or MP3 CD's - genius .

Close runner up would have to be DCSquares, totally addictive fun, that's not to say that any others listed are not addictive or fun but the two mentioned seem to be the most polished and complete games. Most promising for me would be Alice, Revolver seems to be in a class of it's own, and as for DCastle - can't wait for the full version.

By way of a thankyou for your vote... have a new version of it... http://homepage.ntlworld.com/ian_edw...oggle_2005.zip

[quote author=Christuserloeser link=board=homebrew;num=1107784161;start=0#9 date=02/11/05 at 21:06:38]Revolver is just incredible revolutionary with that light gun game play and the superb gfx. Here comes Warmtoe into mind with his wonderful contributions to the scene... Isn't he the one that developed the light gun code? Damn thanks to all of you code wizards out there - you're doin an amazing job there [/quote]
I did do a lightgun driver - however, I'm not sure how much of this got used in Revolver - Toastman has some lightgun code now too which I talked with him about - hope that sees its way into a public forum somewhere...

[quote author=Christuserloeser link=board=homebrew;num=1107784161;start=0#9 date=02/11/05 at 21:06:38]My vote however, goes out to L@Cible with his unbelievable 2 player car racing game DCSTUNT - it's still in an early stage but once it's more advanced it'll be the best hombrewn racing game ever made. Im sure bout that![/quote]
Sprint was another thing that I never quite finished - in fact I'd lost the source for it - just found a copy of it again and perhaps I'll find time to tinker with that...

I do have to say after playing Joggle and thinking that this is one of those fun type of family games that this would be a big number in the scene. Also the graphics are a pretty good just for a word game and it seems with warmtoe what he creates has to be fun and has to great graphics to play.

All are really good but Ill vote for DCastle! Its certainly the most proffesional of the bunch. Looks fantastic and its fun to play!

[Eric]

I dont mind DCastle at all but i thought they could have done a little more with the demo to give us more of what to do and how to complete. I know the first one i died automatically after destroying all the bars i guess i did something wrong i have no clue and the second version wicked update on the graphics but i cant remember what happened when i tried to kill skull thing with a smoke. Anyways that wasnt bad but i was confused in that game and thats why i chose Joggle as game of the year.

Well I never realized Revolver was that popular. Thanks to all the people who said they liked it. I should probably try and release another version of it soon then.

I haven't played Joggle but from the screenshots I saw it looks like a fun game.
Others I tried last year were Alice and DCastle, both fantastic games.
