Juggerdome – OUT NOW!

   Posted by: Con in Juggerdome, News

It’s come a long way from it’s humble beginnings back in January, but after a 6 week haul it’s finally done. Juggerdome is an action shooter with a few little twists to it. Feel free to leave feedback here or on the Armor site, right now though, I’m going to get some rest.

—– PLAY JUGGERDOME —–

VERSION 1.1 WILL BE UP SOON
ChangeList:
- Fixed Inventory bug where weapons were “lost” on aborting a mission.
- Improved Laser effectiveness, upped damage and collision size.
- Made final boss resistant to electric trap shutdowns.
- Fixed “Slaughtermaster” achievement, was requiring 7 kills in a second rather than 6.
- Made Bertha easier to find. You still need to get all the achievements.
- Fixed spelling errors and misc. event descriptions.

    Hey Con, glad to have been one of the first to play Juggerdome as I happened to refresh Armor Games a few minutes after it must have been posted, it’s a pretty fun time-waster, I know this wasn’t as high-value as your other titles but it was still fun nonetheless. I hate to “this guy” but I accidentally aborted after the first mission, after just buying the Burninator…when I Continued the game I tried rebuying the Burninator but found that I couldn’t…turns out…when I came back to my game it reset the Burninator count to -1 so when I bought it, it simply returned to 0. Minor bug but just thought I’d let you know. I really like the presentation of the game. You capture a game’s atmosphere very well when you do your menus. All in all great game Con!


    This is how you write feedback people!

    Thanks so much, I’ll jump on that right away. Damned inventorys are always giving me grief.

  • Dave

    YES!!!!

  • Crimsic

    No problem. I noticed after you released Warfare 1944 people were almost spamming you with “bugs”. They barely gave you any info and it seemed they were more whining than actually trying to give constructive criticism. I honestly have never experienced a bug in one of your games before this one…but seeing as how I looked at it and noticed what happened I thought I should tell you. Hopefully it’ll save you a dozen or so comments that are along the lines of “CONZ y did my gunz go away!!?!!??!11″

  • rAnDUMB_PERSON

    con i noticed that it says if you get all achievements you unlock bertha ….whats bertha?

  • jako

    It was a fun game but had a few bugs.

    And this is how you don’t post feedback. Details?
    - Con

  • Singid25

    Awesome game!

    No bugs so far as I can see. I’m currently at what I think is the last level. I have full upgrades, and each arm is equipped with a laser and a shot cannon. Also, each gear slot has a heat sync so I basically never need to let the rain stop >:D

    Still, pretty awesome game. I’m about to see if this layout works….

  • Lemons R Fun

    woo all the achievements already…Bertha is fun? even though i don’t know what Bertha is still.

    Check the bottom of your weapons list.
    - Con

  • Fuzball

    Great game. But some bugs i saw were when i was shocked my screen went black. Also some of the guys will come out of the walls and not the door. Keep up the great work!

  • LostSoul

    Hey con just played the your newest creation my only bit of grife is the left click space bar to shoot. Its hard to use the wasd to move the mouse to aim/shoot and the space to shoot…to solve this maybe add a cooldown timer so you can do it with one click and when the gun over heats it just cools down and the others still work…just a sudjestion.

  • Singid25

    Yep, it worked… almost too easily… >.>

    9 more achievements to go!

  • Exeara

    Great ass game Con. I had the same problem with the rocket launcher. This game was well worth the wait. You know what this game was so bad ass I think i’ll add it to my faves.

  • TheChosenOne

    I didn’t play it all the way through…YET. So far great flash game, don’t worry though, I’ll have bugs for you in a little while ;)

  • Josh (pie)

    Dear Con, I couldn’t help but notice that you used a explosion soundtrack from the Warfare series on the last boss, can you believe i pay attention to that much detail, it worries me. I did not encounter any bugs on my time-wasting journey, yet i am glad to finish the game so i may get off this computer and rest my eyes. so, goodbye for now.

    Your fan, Josh

  • Buck Futter

    i found a bug, if you move into the top left corner on the first level (i think its warehouse) and try to fire, the game doesnt respond. then after you move around out of that spot, your weapons will still not fire.

  • Lemons R Fun

    Wow…Bertha made everything fun again, Thanks con for pointing out where it was.

  • Steven

    Just a quick note; great game. But the item that reduces heat buildup should be “heat sink”, not “heat sync”. Minor thing though. Otherwise, great game :-D

    Argh, good pickup. Cheers.

  • clever name, name

    Awazingly awsome dude!!!…i love the game!!! it honestly deserves a 9.5 or better ounce u get the hang of things. how much money do u make on these games anyway? u shuld get paid a heck of alot for your last stand series…those games rock!!!

  • clever name, name

    i have major problem…actully 2 in 1…
    there is no pause button…that or im just to stupid to find one…and i get so laggy that it takes me 10 min. to finish an event!!! so there shuldbe a pause button with a qualitysetting in it….peace!

    You can toggle quality in the options on the main menu.
    - Con

  • A person…

    Er…I have a problem…which I don’t really know is this a problem of my oldish computer or the game…well…the adversitiment struck at the screen which make me unable to play…I tried refresh many time but it didn’t work…

    And n top of that it say” the game is unable to start because you are not in armorgame” while I already on armorgame…

    So,mind fix this problem?

  • Singid25

    Went through it a few times, have to point out some things…
    1. Can’t get fireman if you burn a juggernaut.
    2. The inventory redo glitch (already stated)
    3. Made the boss way too easy.
    Suggestions
    4. Increase the cooldown time. should take a bit longer in my opinion, otherwise it’s just a “minor setback”
    5. Increase the area of effect for the laser, only rarely does it do anything… dispite being the best weapon…

    That should do… still, a great game :)

    Thanks Singid. Did you get your hands on Bertha?
    - Con

  • Grimboy777

    Hey love the game the only probelm i had with it was the shoot buttons it just kinda got on my nerves but other than that it was a great game keep up the good work

    What’s hard about pushing down with your thumb? Do you people use keyboards differently than me?
    - Con

  • Heavenlysword

    the chinese characters on the bottom left is a very nice touch, but it reads : is one (unit?) machine

    Heh. I have no idea, I tried to translate “this is a machine” through Google translate and it game me those characters.
    - Con

  • rAnDUMB_PERSON

    i cant get 5000 in crowd bonus its too hard

  • massdog1

    I have a little comment.For a juggerdome 2 why dont you move whith the mouse.
    plz reply
    -Massdog1
    p.s Fun game.

  • Anon101

    fun game but the gear should be upgradeable
    and needs more upgrades for mabey like weapon dmg/att. speed
    and definately armor/hp increase/speed

    Bugs:
    -sometimes convicts get stuck in the doors

    -on champion level time moves extra slow
    I failed the level but got win freedom achivement anyways and then when I tried to play the level again I went in upper left corner and the game bugged out so my jug. dissappeared and I had NaN armor,could not fire weapons,the champion and other convicts are firing at a wall atm

    since I cannot attack the game is stuck on “FINNISH THEM”

    and I cant for the life of me find a button to go to a menu

    also lasers almost never strike and weapons overheat too fast

  • palau

    finished the game in under 50 min i experimented some problems 2 most of them up in the comments so i won’t say them again except 4 that “finish them” didn’t encounter it still nice game :)

  • Singid25

    found a major error; for the second event, it qoutes for opponents “Juggernauts of all shapes and sizes” But there is no juggernauts…
    It should be instead “Prisoners of all shapes and sizes”

    Still need to get 8 achievements for Bertha…

  • Alex

    This isn’t as much a bug as just some general feedback. The game is fun and the whole music/ atmosphere, etc works for me.

    I only wish the people were a bit bigger or the whole game screen was bigger in order to allow you to better aim. Also the space bar as a alternative guns makes it kinda hard to move around. I’d suggest using the directional keys for the two fire modes or maybe a middle mouse button or something…

    Finally, the game get’s a bit slow for me when I shoot all four cannon :)

    Anyhow, great job and I can hardly wait for Last Stand 3….You rock

  • Billy

    Nice game but they’re alot of improovements to be made, add some more weapons, gadgets and upgrades. Let us name our juggerdrome bot. I know this is a lot to ask but maybe you could make it a multiplayer game, no creating account just join a game with your juggerdrome bot name.

  • dakota

    great game but theres a couple bugs i got when i aborted a mission i lost all my gear and weapons and i bought 3 impact shields and it said i only had 1?

  • OnyxWolf

    The laser needs it’s AoE increased a little, not a huge amount. It’s already pretty easy to line up the arm, if you have nothing else on it. (I was using Spacebar for Dual Lasers, and a Assault Cannon/Multilaunch on the Click)

    The only problem I had was trying to dodge missles, (The larger RPG style, the smaller ones worked fine.) because it seems they have a clipping area larger than the sprite.

    …oh, and there’s nothing like Quadruple Burners in a non-Jugger match.

    ~Onyx

  • Guy (not Fawkes)

    Hey, I really enjoyed the game but I have one major question:
    How do you “please the crowd”?
    I didn’t really see anything that explained what to do to get that bonus and I have been having trouble getting that achievement since I don’t have a clue how to make them happy, heh. Maybe I just missed it and am an idiot, but it would be great if you could help me out, I’d like to try out Bertha. Thanks! :)

  • jeffisdumb

    hi con awesome game all i got to say is that theres a few bugs its kinda laggy when i fire it mite just be me tho and lvl 1 in the wharehouse u go to the cornor and u cant fire lol i got pinned by convicts there lolz. they also get stuck in doors sumtimes other than that awesome

  • Mythman611

    Would it be possible ( unless already suggested) to be able to change the button configuration its difficult to drive and fire with the WASD and spacebar

  • Singid25

    Found another error; for event 3 it says you need to get 200 points, but you really need 300…

    Heh, whoops.
    - Con

  • Grammer Police

    You spelled “proud” wrong at the end.

    You spelled “grammar” wrong at the start. But thanks :)
    - Con

  • Ryan

    Great game. Very addicting. There are only a couple problems being that the crowd pleaser and the slaughter master achievements are extremely difficult in my opinion, especially when you can’t see how many credits you have gotten from the crowd during the event. An enemy also will sometimes get stuck behind the wall when it tries to follow you before it goes out the door. One thing that isn’t a problem but I think it would be better if right clicking was right cannon and left was left. Anyway great game.

  • Francis

    Wow that was addicting. I love machine type games like those. Well anyway, I couldn’t find any bugs, and the slow turn around thing was a great twist. Oh yeah, I got the crowd pleaser on the second level.

  • Alex

    I love the game Con. I have beat it and gotten all the achievements but i cannot find Bertha. I read the comment above with someone who could not find it. You said to look on the bottom of the weapons list. But i do not see it there if you can help it would be nice. It was a great game and the only bug i encountered were when the weapons disappeared then I’d just refresh the page and they would be back.

    Sorry, it’s at the bottom of the ATTACH weapons list.
    - Con

  • Kris

    Boy.. I sure am having trouble with the 6 kills a second achievement…

    The rocket launchers are your friend. Wait for a bunch of prisoners to group up, then unload on them.

    Edit: Whoops. Checking the code it actually requires 7 kills in a second. Adjusting it down to make it a bit easier.
    - Con

  • gabethedrone

    Wow, Im very impressed with this. Before i thought it would just be a mindless slaughter with some cool weapons but, the differnt types of events take at it to a whole new level.

  • gabethedrone

    Also, I dont see why everyone is complaining about using the spacebar to shoot. Just use your thumb people!!!!!!!

  • rAnDUMB_PERSON

    i lost my bertha :( because of the inventory glitch …. but i got it back :D all you have to do is start another stage and click the exit button so when you come back onto juggerdome you have all your weapons back :D

    Fixing this problem at the moment.
    - Con

  • rAnDUMB_PERSON

    con just a question is it possible to get more then 1 bertha

  • Kevin

    Hey Con, first of all I love the game. I can tell you put a lot of effort into it. I know you have a thousand bugs, I just wanted to add a thousand and one. Whenever you click abort on the equipment screen, it erases every purchase made. I checked back later to see if it was still happening and it still was. Still a great game, cant wait for LS3!!!

  • Kendall

    Con, I love Juggerdome. Must have played it for an hour and a half. I could not stop. Could not find any bugs. It was all working fine. You should so make a second one.

  • http://yuhn.wordpress.com yuhn

    It’s a fun game, though not as good as some of your others. I’ve reviewed it here: http://yuhn.wordpress.com/2009/10/09/flash-game-review-juggerdome/

    Also, I noticed the Juggernauts seemed very similar to the robot from “Robokill”. Was this intentional?

  • Singid25

    So that’s why it was hard to get slaughter master achievement…

    But I still got it! Bertha is sweet…

    Waiting for update….

  • arthur th freanch

    hi con.this game is awesome.but there is only one thing that is missing: in the options you cant change the keyboard settings because in france we don’t have the same keyboard so to move the juggernaut its a bit difficult.maybe you will made a update for this…

  • ramzalelfe

    Hello Conartist,

    I wished to play juggerdome, and for god’s sake, please realise that many gamers are europeans and we don’t have a qwerty but azerty type of keyboard.

    It would be very simple to add in “settings” a european configuration where the “a” would be replaced by your “q” and your “w” would be replaced by your “z”. It would really be more easy to play to your games.

    Please take that in consideration ;)

    That would be easy to implement. I’ll make a new version today.
    - Con

  • Kris

    Yes! Finally got that 6 kills a second achievement! Thanks Con for the reply! Now on to the DOMEMASTER achievement…

  • Warlord_126 (Transitioning to Ninjat)

    I tried to translate “this is a machine” through Google translate and it game me those characters.
    - Con

    Never Use Google Translate. for a test, run a string of text through all the languages, then back to English.
    You will not recognise it.

    I have seen games like this before, but that doesn’t make this any less fun.
    The Inventory Bug was annoying (but being fixed) and maybe the rockets should have a slightly larger AOE. (I haven’t gotten further than that yet).

    And just use your thumb for SPACE guys!

    Yeah I wasn’t trying that hard to get an accurate translation, it was purely meant for aesthetics.
    - Con

  • Singid25

    umm… found some odd… error.

    I was in the hell pit, finished the battle and got my statistics. The wierd thing is… I apparently got 174.625% accuracy, which says I got more hits than shots….

    is that possible?

    Ooooooh. Might’ve forgot to reset the career stats on new game starting. Looks like there’ll be a new version soon.

    - Con

  • James

    i have got to say Con, you seem to have the magic touch, every game idea you have tried so far ( to my knowledge ) is excellent. I loved trying to earn all the achievements for Bertha. Will you do this for Last Stand 3? because the achievements were alot of fun

    Yeah, I was just seeing how you guys felt about the achievements. Seems that they’re quite popular so they’ll end up in the next Last Stand game.
    - Con

  • Kris

    Yes! Just got Bertha!
    On another note, glad to see that there aren’t anymore glithes I could find through the entire game.

  • kerry

    refering to 54.
    i hope you put alot more unlockables in the next last stand instead of just finding stuff it would be nice to earn things to you know what i mean

  • Slappythehobo

    hey con,

    just a simple question about juggerdome, but if i start a new game (i already finished mission 11) will i lose my achievements?

    Nope. It says so in the popup box before you start a new game.
    - Con

  • adam!!!!!!!is!!!!!!!back!!!!!!!!!!

    i’m back! and also juggerdome is a great game

    You went somewhere?
    - Con

  • clever name, name

    whendi u think the new last stand game will be out?im redy to start owning some zombies!

    Read the FAQ: http://www.conartistgames.com/index.php/faqs/

  • Valhelm

    It looks good, but it’s unplayable for me.

    Please, please, please make a left handed mode, where the arrow keys are used for control, mouse is left weapon and enter or shift is right weapon.

    Do you use your mouse with your left hand? I thought all you lefties learned to use mice right handed.
    - Con

  • palau

    hey Con i read the FAQ’s about warfare the new one i liked that “Maybe” but i do hope it’s it’s a Maybe with a + get it ? ;)

  • Josh (pie)

    well, i was playing it after i got the bertha and then came here, the went back to play more, and guess what… i had TWO berthas!

    i dont even know how i got them, mayne if i go back il have 3!!!

  • Josh (pie)

    NOOOooOOoOOOOo!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

    i lost a berthaand now i only have 1!!!

    …oh well :’( it was good while it lasted

  • misterAZERTY

    Hello,

    I love all your mouse-only-games, but since this one needs the use of a QWERTY keyboard, I won’t be able to play it.

    Considering I’m certainly not the only Con Artist fan who uses an AZERTY keyboard, could a controls option be added to the menu?

    thanks for your work :)

  • Josh (pie)

    i figured out how i got the berthas, cause i just did it again… you paly the game for a while then leave the site and go back then click new game, and BOOM, two berthas

  • Valhelm

    No, Con, I use my mouse with my left hand. Games that use WASD I can play, but this confuses me, because the mouse is the right attack, not the left.

  • Juraj

    Also, i have to earn 5000 crowd bonuses in one event ?.. Couse i have achievement 3000 crowwdbonuses and now i earned another 2500, but i still cant get The last achievement – Domemaster

    Yes, you need to earn 5000 in one event. Replay one of the prisoner levels with a few rocket launchers equipped. Crowd Bonuses are given for killing large groups quickly.
    - Con

  • Juraj

    - Got bertha, thank you, great game – as always :)

  • Kevin

    First of all, great game Con, but I just have one minor complaint:there isn’t a pause button. I know this may seem insignificant, but it was there in your other games. Just wondering why it wasn’t in this one.

  • worm-nation

    wow berta kicks ass >:D

  • pqsouperhero

    Sorry to complain, but thats what everyones doing, but i find it hard to move and fire with both guns. aka: SPACEBAR, MOUSE, ARROW KEYS! theyre hard to press at the same time. i dont have 3 hands. Sorry to complain, apart from that great game.
    PQ :l

  • Cameron

    I just played this game, and I love it, but sadly, I found something pretty bad (although it may just be my crappy Graphics Card).

    I played for about, 3 rounds and it began to lag massively, I just thought it’d be AVG or something, but found nothing wrong, so, I sighed, and continued to play, but sadly it got worse, to such a level it came to a complete stop.

    As I said, i’m not sure if it was just my graphics card raping itself, or some graphical game issue, but whatever it was, it ruined it for me. D:

    On the bright side, it looked like a great game from what I played of it. =]

  • anthony

    in the new last stand game coming out in early 2010 they should have a trap to put above doorways. One that has a tripwire. like put a gun above the door and when tripwire goes off it shoots the gun.
