Glubies Planet v1.1
Alpha Version

Glubies Planet is a DS homebrew game in which you have to guide some small creatures called Glubies through several levels with the help of a couple of items and solve some of the puzzles needed to reach the goal.

Spoiler: Authors' comments: (Google Translation)

Hello,

We are four students in an engineering school IMAC (Image, Multimedia, Audiovisual Communication). We want to specialize in various fields, management sound design, passing course in programming, and we all have a passion for video games. Under a project supervisor we decided to make a game for Nintendo DS. It's called Planet Glubies DS.

The game:
Glubies Planet is an action game / reflection planned for Nintendo DS.
The Glubies little creatures are very nice .... but so stupid!
The goal of the game: analyze levels, clear the path and take your Glubies juqu'al'arrivée!
The gameplay takes place in 2 phases:
- The period of reflection allows you to analyze the level, to raise and direct objects and solving riddles and puzzles.
- The phase of action, where you must direct your Glubies pen drawing on their language, making use of objects lying and avoiding the deadly traps.

Progress:
The game is programmed in C + +, uses libnds and EFS lib for file management. It offers an interface with different menus and a management profile with backups. The game runs very well on the console via a Supercard DS One.

The game engine is almost finished, we also have a world editor and a powerful script that allows us to script our levels as we really want
Currently, the game has a dozen levels in progressive difficulty, two different environments ( "plain" and "wilderness"), and 5 or 6 usable items.

Whoa! This looks commercial-game-quality O.O .
It seems alot of fun, and has awesome controls, cool effects, advanced features and pretty good graphics

So far it looks like a must have homebrew for DS and maybe it'll be the best homebrew for DS..
Hope they'll finish the game & translates it to english

 

[tinymonkeyt]

wow it looks really nice for a homebrew
will be trying out

 

[suppachipmunk]

This game looks great.
Very high quality!

Are there any games out there (commercial or homebrew) that resemble this game in a completed form?

Look forward to this one though!

Looks very nice, but I can't get it to actually run. I'm at the screen where it says Open File, has a list of five Empty File's and a Remove button, but I can't get past it. (That's Ouvrir un Fichier, Fichier vide, and Supprimer, translated by Google.) Plus an English translation would be great.

They have their own homepage at Glubiesplanet.com and there you can chose between French and English. The english version is still empty, but this is nevertheless hope for all english speaking people

. Perhaps this means they'll translate the game too, as soon as they have time to.

Very nice work judging from the video. I will definitely give this a go later today!

looks like a fun game, anyone who has played it can you tell me if it is playable if you don't speak French?

 

[Shryquill]

I did not compress anything, this archive was not changed in any way from its original state and therefore it's in the format the authors' uploaded it in.

 

[Covarr]

I will download this as soon as an English version is available.

 

[BORTZ]

this looks really cool. It will be the first homebrew ive downloaded for a while.

 

[lil-devil]

Hi, I'm a member of the team which did that game.

Thank you for all the positive comments.

The English part of the website is done, but there's still some mistakes, so i didn't put it on line yet. You can have this version here : http://www.glubiesplanet.com/en/home.html ( and again sorry for the mistakes ^^)

The game is in french because... well we are french ^^. But the game will be translated, it's one of our objectives.

Otherwise, we don't know why the save system doesn't work, it worked with the version just before the alpha, so we'll try to solve this bug.

I think the game is playable even if you don't understand french language, it's quite simple :

You have to save a definite number of glubies.
You have to make tem go to the big red cross on the ground.

Reflexion phase :
You place some objects which will help you to get through the level, then push Start button

Action phase :
You give orders to your glubies in order to go at the arrival.

We are still working on this game, so wait for a new version soon (or not so soon ^^).

Cya, and thanks again.

EDIT : PLease, if you see some mistakes in the site, email-me or PM me so I can correct it. Thanks !

Ok, thanks for the info (and the game).
Keep up the good work, this could get really great!
It takes quite a long time to load at DSTT, i waited for like 20sec, G6Real 1GB was a bit faster , with like 10-15sec.
It'd be good if you'd be able to cut down on the loading time, as some may thing it isn't working and just turn it off and think it's incompatible with their flashcard.

 

[lil-devil]

it loads relatively fast, like most other games 5-10 secs for my supercard ds1 =]

but yeah the game is very intresting =] but im stuck at level 7 i think it is, where you get the triangle and the dimond mirror for the first time ;-;

anyone wana help? xD but anyways looks awesome eh looking forward for this game to devolope even more
