How long does 10 seconds last ? by AnnaGavaldaKedavra

[raw]
made by AnnaGavaldaKedavra for LD27 (COMPO)
Controls depends of the screen :

Arrow keys
Space
Mouse

Ok there are a few bugs, sometimes you have to restart the game. [Some of them are fixed]
Ok i forgot a few basics : so depends on your computer u may not be able to take more than one thing on the first screen, sorry.



It's an interactive story so you don't hesitate to play a few times.

No time to finish everything, the "you save the crowd" story isn't there, i'm sorry. Plus no time for audio.

But i'll post a post-compo version later !

It's really nice, especially the transition between scenes and the ending sentence.
I had pleasure to try the different stories.
Also, the timing shield/asteroid was a bit hard to find the first times.

I played a few times and it got better each time. I reccomend everyone give it a few tries as on first attempt it is quite hard to realise the goal. collect everything at the beggining too! :) Great idea, superb atmosphere. My kinda game!

Thx.

psychomonster : To kill those asteroids youhave to take the shield on the first screen then activate it with SPACE on the 3rd screen, just watch your timing.

Nice little game, pretty simple but well done, I dont think I understood it fully, but I featured it in a compilation video on Ludum Dare 27 games, if you want to check it out, http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=y3_qdYR_Vsw

Interesting mood and take on the theme. Also, loved the idea of using rhymes. You definitely have to play more than one time to get the grasp of it.

The game isn't much fun by itself, it really lacks audio, graphics aren't that good ...

But
I really loved how you linked the mini games through narration (that's what I tried to do too). Those verse are really lovely, and despite all the things i wrote above, it's still one of my favorite so far. I really dig this kind of experiences. I really feel it you would only need one more day of work to make it better (music, every endings, nicest "what button should I use" bubbles, and maybe, forgeting about the mouse thing, it's annoying to switch between mouse and keyboard, especially on a laptop".

I'm glad you lie it.

@Pierrec : Yeah your totally right, a few more hours would have been a bless. I'll post a post-compo version soon, wanted to do that sooner but didn't have time.

Nice entry, good idea. However, the gameplay session are a little too hardcore (large planet, too much meteorite etc.), I understand the need to make choices but there are too little illusions about the possible success of some ways/strategy. Also I think you will win in replay value with more easy fun features.

you can move before you can see yourself, hahaha, but that's okay, great game!

Poetry and beauty... Finishing one ending I felt I just had to play all of them.
I couldn't seem to get anything different when I save the population, but that's ok.
Wonderful, wonderful entry!

Nice entry! I really like how there are different story lines. It's a pity there is no music, that would certainly add to the mood. :) Well done!

quite hard to figure out, what to do first, but when I got it, I was suprised about the different storylines
