They're not a masterpiece, but they don't have to. A fairy that's destroying the world with the method exploiting human errors is also a great thing. The background music is perfect.\r<br\/>Mechanics are neat, because unlike other &quot;tower-defenses&quot; you build. You kill. You get. You build. But they're destroyed over time, which makes it very fun for this little work. I wish there was some more feedback, like when you have enough energy or when a human is scared.\r<br\/>Maybe some little balancing, I mean is there a way to get the first human into being a victim?\r<br\/>Oh and the stream was awesome.

The amount of new tricks I poured into this did grant the side effect of me not having a clue about how I should fix some details that didn't behave as planned. And no... it is likely not possible to turn that first human into a victim. That's really poor game balance from my part, but something I had to ignore because of the time constraints.\r<br\/>\r<br\/>I'm glad you enjoyed the stream. I've never developed anything and streamed at the same time before so that was an interesting experience for me as well ^^"}],"images":["ld32\/35790-7b833b5d5ed1a1b2f127400091eec30d.jpg","ld32\/35790-9923664bd69eef21b4340e33ef054f46.jpg"],"links":[{"url":"http:\/\/gamejolt.com\/games\/arcade\/it-s-dangerous-to-go-alone\/61642\/","text":"Web (GameJolt)"},{"url":"https:\/\/dl.dropboxusercontent.com\/u\/188419797\/IDTGA\/win64.zip","text":"Windows"},{"url":"https:\/\/dl.dropboxusercontent.com\/u\/188419797\/IDTGA\/osx64.zip","text":"OS\/X"},{"url":"https:\/\/dl.dropboxusercontent.com\/u\/188419797\/IDTGA\/linux64.zip","text":"Linux"},{"url":"https:\/\/dl.dropboxusercontent.com\/u\/188419797\/IDTGA\/IDTGA_Project.zip","text":"Source"}],"metadata":{"g_key":"12879","g_author":"35790","g_event":"LD32","g_eventkey":"27","g_subevent":"COMPO","g_urlkey":"12909","g_title":"It's dangerous to go alone...","g_status":"UCHK1","g_place":"1122","g_commentcount":"24","g_site2_node_id":"0","g_hide":"N","g_has_icon":"Y","g_rqueue":"0","g_random":"0"},"nds":[],"node":null,"orig_images":["http:\/\/ludumdare.com\/compo\/wp-content\/compo2\/\/444368\/35790-shot0-1429484846.png-eq-900-500.jpg","http:\/\/ludumdare.com\/compo\/wp-content\/compo2\/\/444368\/35790-shot1-1429484846.PNG-eq-900-500.jpg"],"text":"It's dangerous to go alone, and you are about to prove it to these unfortunate travellers.
