Hexaxis XXI Alpha Release

greg | March 20, 2007

Update: Quick update…

  • Added Up key for fast down
  • Game Over when you hit the top (and reset)
  • Added More dice sounds.

Grab it below.


Another eye-opening PSP homebrew game… Hexaxis XXI comprises fantastic graphics, cool music/sound, and the addictive game-play you’d expect from any great puzzle game. Currently lacking is the high score table, as well the “score” and “multiplier” text in the upper left isn’t as pretty as the author (Timwillhack) desires; check back for updates after the NEO homebrew competition. In the meantime, have fun!

Hexaxis XXI Screenshot

Controls:
Directional Pad: move dice left, right, and down (no up, it’s like tetris)
Square, Circle, Cross, Triangle: rotate the grid
L and R Triggers: zoom in and out
Select: Exit Game

There are many videos on YouTube showing off its coolness. Check ‘em out.

Download: Hexaxis XXI

It’s Devil Dice’s main concept, minus full directional control, plus Lumines’ “wipe bar”.
Some of the sound effects were taken directly from Devil Dice, it seems.
Not trying to knock it, it’s actually pretty fun.
I wouldn’t advise the author to try and sell it, though.. there might be some copyright issues.

No, none of the effects are rip offs. I made the dice sounds myself with a piece of marble and a bottle of sam adams!

I paid DaZ: http://www.myspace.com/dazdicks for that song, that he made from scratch. The PC game has 17 levels all the music is unique and paid for.

Its way harder than devils dice. Especially currently the pc version because you are forced down, and you have to match up to all the sides not just ‘6’s that I and anyone whos ever played Devils Dice would do.

I also in the PC game have very cool and advanced Multipliers, to make it last a hell of a lot longer play time than Devils Dice. Basically I took everything I’ve liked from all my fav puzzle games and made my dream puzzle game.

Wow…that looks great Tim. Add in the ability to play your own mp3’s too. I know alot of people wanted that for Lumines 2 but didn’t get it. Can’t wait to give it a whirl.

Cheers

That looks awesome. You should have a donations box; people would definitely show gratitude for this one. Also, you should be doing this for a living, if you don’t already:)

Any updates soon? I made 4 updates yesturday, and that was day 3 of my deveopment!! I will get the psp one further along and way the hell better. I just didn’t have the time, so I focused on what I thought should be done in time for the NeoFlash competition deadline.

Thanks all!

P.S. I put up a donation link on my site: http://www.darksoft.net/hexaxispsp.php

I am the one responsible for this project. I wrote it and made it all myself. (Except the actual Dev kit)

I learned how to code it in 1 day and coded for 2 days to see what I could complete for the NEO competition.

I am currently unemployed but would love to be picked up by some developer or something similar.

Thanks all for the good feedback!

Very cool game Tim, can’t wait to see the preview-dice added to the psp version! heh, you should email Microsoft about adding this to the XBL-arcade too.

Hey guys, if you like it, could you please vote for it in the NEO competition?:

http://www.neoflash.com/forum/index.php/topic,3981.0/iefix.js

I would very much appreciate that more than a donation. To have a 1st place in a competition is a much better honor, than cash!

Thanks
Tim
