CLARK, An Isometric Puzzle-Arcade Game On Greenlight

By - | Views: 9,507
CLARK is an isometric, grid-based puzzle game with fast paced arcade elements. It features comic style visuals in various different graphical themes, from the inside of a chaotic factory to the surface of Mars to the interior of an intruding enemy spaceship where you think, run and fight through heaps and heaps of carefully designed puzzle and action areas.

It's currently on Steam's Greenlight looking for votes so if you like the look of this one, then help them out.

Story
Our Hero, Clark #37, is a simple, hard-working maintenance robot, living in a decaying nuclear missile factory on Mars. Ever since the old supercomputer has disappeared, the rest of the factory has fallen into utter chaos. The discovery that diesel has thrilling effects on robotic circuits lead to a fierce shift in priorities: Every robot has since been focussing on drinking instead of working. Everyone except Clark. So when an intruding spaceship enters the stage to disarm and dismantle this out-of-control doomsday device of a partying factory, Clark is the one to save the facility from destruction. He has to overcome his programming to rescue his fellow robots and of course his newly found friend, the lovely atomic bomb, Clara.

The developers noted on the Greenlight page that if Linux users show enough demand they will bring it over:
QuoteWe want to see CLARK on PC and Mac (and Linux, if there's enough demand for it)!
So if you want to see it, too, don't forget to push the button!

The only problem I have with this is that it already has Linux in the platforms list, even though they don't currently support it.

Features
  • more than 100 spatial puzzles in 25 levels
  • about 12 hours of gameplay
  • detailed comic-style visuals
  • dozens of interactive game elements
  • hilariously drunk robots
  • sexy nuclear bombs
  • buzz-killing, laser-shooting invaders
  • super-funky robot disco music
  • DRM-free
  • 2 years of development love (this feature adds extra karma when lighting us!)

Quoting: "liamdawe"The only problem I have with this is that it already has Linux in the platforms list, even though they don't currently support it.

Yeah, it's a common practice I hate too. The game looks very promising though, it's very reminiscent of McDROID but at a slower pace and with puzzles, just as I like. :)

Yeah, this bugs me too, the game looks very fun (I love puzzle games).

I hear you guys, but this is not a false promise:
If CLARK gets the GREEN LIGHT, you will get the game on Linux.
We are developing with Unity so a port for Linux can be done with little effort. The only issue for us now is, that we are currently using Unity 3.5.7 which has not Linux support. That is why the Linux port is not out yet. So we first need to update to Unity 4 (License), which will be done as soon as we are free to release on Steam. The Linux version will be released together with the Windows and PC builds.

So you will see CLARK on Linux – that's a promise.
Cheers, Matthias / Coder for CLARK
