Game Over

Finally done with the game project this monday - has been one very tiresome week. Too bad it didn't get the chance to enter the Joskar ("Joscar") competiton - they didn't manage to run it and didn't let us know in time.

Anyhow, if you want to try it - http://folk.ntnu.no/johannj/papirgutt/papirgutt.jnlp. The sound might not work correctly on certain systems. It's in half-norwegian half-english but should be pretty straight forwards to understand

The concept is to deliver newspapers to all the houses on the map at the fastest possible time. Quite dull, I know (which is why I made map #3.) The physics simulation is quite good and makes it quite difficult to control the tricycle without tipping over (we had to use a tricycle because we didn't manage to balance a bicycle )

You ought to check out the games that made it to the top of Joskar though - they're quite impressive
