A Thousand Hands
Alpha
Made in Construct 2
A Thousand Hands is an arcadey PC game which involves using every key on the keyboard at the same time.
Lore
In a world full of spells, potions and magic, making deliveries seem easy! Especially since the Master Deliverer perfected the ancient ways of logistics, ensuring all items were never dropped or lost ever again.
Although he's on holiday and he's left you, his student, to be Post Master whilst he's away.
WARNING (Must Read):
This game involves pressing and holding multiple keys on your keyboard. The measurement of how many keys it can register at the same time is called NKeyRollOver (NKRO). It is recommended for this Alpha to have 6+NKRO. To test your keyboards NKRO go to the following site:

and quite simply press and hold up to 6 keys and see if they all register, ensure to try with different combinations.

Thanks for reading and playing, I made this game so that it could be my first and only in my portfolio. I want to release it so that I can truly experience the full journey, from planning to polishing. Due to deadlines and University things I won't be able to update it until at least after the [b]Friday 14th November[/b], until then though Happy Holding!
[h2]Psst! There are plans for a HUGE update at some point and it's not just some polish or bug fixes... It's a gameplay change! All I can say is hold onto your hats when Power Drop hits the game...[/h2]
Known Bugs:
[ul]
[li]Tabbing out of the game whilst holding an item and then tabbing back in allows the item to stay in your hand even if you are not holding the key[/li]
[li]Music restarts when you load the Main Menu[/li]
[li]Some sine movements aren't working properly (I'm looking at you furthest to the right item! >:([/li]
[/ul]
[ul]
[li]Please let me know if... no, when you find some bugs! Post them here, either with a screenshot of your highest score or a hand pun that deserves a thumbs up! (Good luck with that)[/li]
