Adapted our game Totem Topple to use EyeX. It’s a tower defence game where you literally have one tower in the form of a totem pole. You stack up heads on your totem pole and add armour and turrets to the side (in the form of wings and arrow firing bird beaks respectively). Enemies spawn and try to eat away at the base of your tower. The aim of the game is to add as many totem heads as possible before the tower is totally destroyed.

Normally the turrets in the game just shoot sideways, but in the version we made to use EyeX, you can actually aim them to target specific enemies. You look at the enemy you want to target and tap Ctrl on keyboard. (In some cases you might need to tap it a couple of times for it to lock on, so generally, it works best to just spam Ctrl till you start seeing arrows firing at the enemy you want).

You can also use Tab on keyboard to toggle the target sights on and off. I personally prefer to play with them off.

Otherwise use mouse to click on totem heads and add them to your totem pole, or to navigate menus and tutorial.

The game was originally made for Wii U, and we’re still in the process of porting it to PC, so some icons, naming of buttons etc might be still for the Wii U version. Equally some resolutions might be a problem. We’ve tested 1920×1080 and 1280x720p and both of those are fine. Also the in-game help doesn’t quite work properly and the button for closing help is missing (press Y on keyboard or number pad 3 to toggle help on/off).

Finally, Classic mode works a lot better with eye tracking than frantic mode, since in the latter, things go a bit too fast for enemy targeting to ever be really useful.

You can download it from itch.io here:

Please don’t distribute it or talk about it beyond these forums without asking though, as it’s still very much a work in progress.

Let me know also if you have any problems playing or getting it to work with EyeX
