Nevermind, was able to defeat Capital City with just 3 stars (and then 4 stars with the shotgun). There are no health pickups like previous levels. It's actually one of the harder levels, do the other stuff like the next stage where you can get Gold on Treetop because of the piss easy "boss". You then get the Shotgun from there which is super useful.

lol

Strategy: If you've got a nice HP Tri, you can soak a bit of damage if you're not too focused on getting the Overload. And you can get hit while using Overload. Also, when the police come and they're too much, just do a semicircle towards the right on the bottom to make them chase you in an arc, they'll then come slower so it's more manageable.

The game does some brilliant stuff with the foreground/background layer stuff that was only hinted at in previous games like Shadow Complex, Rayman Origins, etc. You'll see some little dude way in the back, only to realise going in 2 layers deep that he's an NPC to interact with.

Good thing you like it Hopefully more people try it and get to actually see the art in game

I'd buy it but the paypal link on his site leads to a paypal nitification that his account needs to be verified.



Not a good look. I'll pop back in a few days as i can't be bothered creating a Desura account at the moment.

And his reply:

Marci,

I had no idea! Paypal doesn't notify me of things like this when people try. I'll get that fixed right away. Read through the thread, this is great stuff! Thanks for showing the game around.

I'll post some updates what we're working on right now in the thread.

Thanks,
-Leo

Hey all!

Dev from Ballpoint Universe here. I was the lead artist / concept guy. We enjoyed reading through this thread over at the office.

There's many parts of the games that are unbalanced or could be pushed more, but we're a 3 man team so testing and such was really limited. We're working on an extended version of the game with optimized graphics and infinite mode now! The infinite mode will be free to play on our website. I'll post details when it's up.

Since I feel that I'd be cheating you if I didn't leave you with some artwork, here's this.

Thanks for playing the game! We will be posting updates to our facebook page.

Current versions will be updated to extended versions I guess? Wouldnt want to play the website version if I own the normal one.

I absolutely ADORE your artwork, fantastic job guys. Considering its actually a "creative" industry, its quite a shame that the gaming industry is in sore need of more creative and different art styles. Gorgeous, gorgeous game.
