/cast by yongcamu
Hello and good day there! :) Meet /cast. Personally, the very first game I've ever made. I think it's quite a simple yet difficult game. Imagine charades without the constant hand-holding of clues mixed with the vastness of possibilities alike a text-adventure. And to top it off, an accelerated failure state!
Update: NEWB DETECTED. Totally forgot about WinRAR. Uploaded. RARs are now available for all platforms.
> How do I PLAY this game:
Played Charade before? Then you'll know how to play this! Get guessing - get spamming, my friend!
> How do I WIN this game:
Through trial and error (and HINTS!) you will be able to solve the 3-word string to cast the spell to push away the apocalypse before the meteor hits!
> How do I NOT LOSE this game:
#protip Each keystroke on your keyboard will push back the meteor a little but it will also increase the speed of the meteor. So, yes, spamming is a completely viable tactic - until the meteor builds up too much speed and then you're boned hard. :O #notsoprotip
I'm a first-timer for Ludum Dare. I wanted to find an excuse to learn in a crash-course manner both programming in JS and the Unity engine itself. And oh boy, it was a mad but fun journey! :)
