10 Up by RobDangerous

[raw]
made by RobDangerous for LD27 (JAM)
Strategy, Action, Adventure!

You control four highly-trained specialists, the world's top investigation team:

- An agent, who uses a gun to greet his enemies and a grappling hook to reach faraway places. His name is confidential. Very confidential.

- A mechanic, who can repair stuff and performs a very distracting dance. Never trust a woman who can't handle a wrench.

- A scientist, who can hack into computers, and uses a time gun to turn back time. It's all relative.

- A rowdy, who can punch and lift objects. He pities the fools.

Fresh from their secret laboratory our team makes use of the newest and most powerful energy drink ever conceived: 10 Up
There is just one catch: Emptying a can of 10 Up will make you fall asleep after 10 seconds. It's just that powerful, mankind cannot handle so much energy for long.

Control with cursor keys or wasd (left, right, jump) and mouse.
Space bar pauses the game and lets you choose another team member.
Mac user: If you are missing a right mouse button, use Ctrl + left mouse button.
Use the pause button often and wisely to switch characters, plan ahead and make the most of your precious time. Watch our introductory video at http://10up.robdangero.us/video/game-mechanics.html and show the foes who's boss.

The native versions and the HTML5 version contain some small bug fixes compared to the original Flash version, see http://10up.robdangero.us/changelog.html

We put up a little more text and an introductory video at the game's site. Hope it helps.

Very confusing, i kind of understand but it's all a bit confusing. The graphics are quite nice and the mood is feels very consistent, reminds me a lot of the old gameboy games.

Good job! I loved the animations, and the character select was a nice touch. There is no way to switch characters if you kill Mr T, then you just stuck with the machinic girl. Keep on making stuff!

Characters can be switched freely as long as they don't fall asleep. Everybody please watch the video to get a grasp of the mechanics.

We had to rush things a bit for release. Some changes we made in last minute do not perform well on flash platform.

Yep, good concept, seems like it could be a lot more fun if you tweaked the difficulty ramp, but as it is, impressive for a weekend project!

We added Windows and HTML5 versions. Should you run into performance problems with the original Flash version, try those.

It's a nice idea but the controls were confusing at first. I didn't know what's going on either.

Other than those, the art was pretty good.

I was excited about trying this when seeing the screenshot, but I just couldn't figure it out.
