The Aliens Came (10 seconds to choose) by porglezomp
This game is a Choose Your Own Adventure Game with a 10 second time limit on all your choices.
You play as an average citizen in a post-invasion society, but all the while circumstance seems to conspire to drive you toward rebellion.
The CYOAG engine was built inside Unity3D.
I used TextWrangler to write the story.
BFXR to make the timer-end beep sound effect.
I used Photoshop for the art.
Fontstruct was used to create the ingame font.

This is a pretty great game all around. Nice use of unity, great visuals, and a pretty solid story.
If I did have to gripe about one thing, it would be the sound, except for the the one blip at the beginning, I didn't hear anything. (Maybe it was just the route I took or something.)
Can't wait to see if you do a Post-Mortem!
Keep it up!
The visuals were quite consistent with each other and the story was extremely well done.
Nice entry.
@Pestodesign thanks! One of my friends told me "This fixes all the problems with Choose-Your-Own-Adventure games."
@OkayHughes I tried to make a warning sound, but it never really worked.
Fits the theme very well, has awesome graphics and it's innovative too
Good luck!
Good job.
If I work on it more, I'll change where the timer shows up, instead of being every single choice.

"You have no things here"
Great submission for 48 hours
Great work!
The use of the theme via the count down timer didn't end up effecting me much, since I tended to read the text, look at the image and make a decision before the timer got in the red.
Found it an enjoyable experience overall, good job.
Nice to see a good text adventure which was actually engaging.
The graphics are very nice, and the story is decent.
Good job.
A choose-your-own-adventure game with simple, but great art? In 48 hours? Sweet! The mood's there (I especially love the meeting scenes), I just wish there were music and sound effects to underline it - but then again, 48 hours, right? The timer was a nice idea, but since there wasn't much text, I never felt really rushed.
Pretty good job overall!
