Mega Craet Box

Inspiration

Mega Craet Box (Not Crate Box - Craet Box) is a game inspired by Super Crate Box from Vlambeer. Super Crate Box is a very enjoyable game - but have had a lot of problems getting it to work lately - including on Linux (which is my primary OS) and Steam. So basically personally seeing such a lovely game getting lost slowly has motivated me to recreate a close to similar experience and grow it.

So decided to replicate the experience in the best way possible. And in a way that can be enjoyed on Mac, Windows and Linux. It may not exactly be at par with the original but I guess it can get there some day.

Mega Crate Box is built around very similar mechanisms as Super Crate Box. An explanation of the original game mechanics can be explained in this video:

Game Controls

The Game uses both Keyboard as well as Controller Inputs.

Unlocking Weapons

The following weapons are available without unlocking, and act as a starting set of weapons:

• The Pistol.
• The Shotgun.
• The Machine Gun.

Some special weapons are locked. You need to constantly collect crates (regardless of the level score) to unlock the following weapons as the game progresses:

Crates Total	Weapon Unlock
30	Dual Pistol
60	Disk Gun
90	Bazooka
120	Grenade Launcher
150	Katana
180	Mines

Note: This is the total number of crates during game play and not within a single level. So if you collect 10 crates 1st attempt, 10 crates second attempt, 10 crates 3rd attempt - you automatically then unlock the Dual Pistol - as you progress to then unlocking the next set of weapons.

Constant Improvements

The Game will be constantly looking to improve over time - including adding extra game mechanics as well as Weapon Systems. Taking this a step at a time. This is being released as a Beta as for now. Its going to be exciting to see where this will lead.

Setting up our own Game Studio

We would love to improve the experience of this game as well as develop other game titles from scratch. We are looking to setup a Game Studio for this purpose - which is why we would love to have your support to do so.

Looking forward to doing some amazing new game

We hope this will just be a beginning for more titles to come. Support us in our goals to come up with amazing originals in the months and years to come..
