Villain OS 8 by tommycreo
One typical day right from the eyes of the villain: pet your cat, destroy the Earth, and laugh like a true evil genius.
Control: Mouse
Your doomsday weapon is powered by your evil laugh, charge it before firing.
Unfortunately did not have time to make music, only some sounds.

Pro: Lots of fun! I like the controls.
Con: Too short - i want more fun. Also took a while to find and click the first button i needed to push.
pretty good overall, would have been more challenging if the satellites didn't have a constant orbit.
Love the cat!
I also like how the mouse movement and hand movement worked together.
MWHAHAHAHA!
I loved the animation/interaction of the hands on the control panel
The controls feel like some sort of ill-conceived contraption out of an Austin Powers movie... so not fun it's funny, I guess?
The control scheme didn't work out too well for me (I used a mouse), but I have a feeling it would work much better on a tablet. Especially the cat cuddling ^_^
Anyway, it's fun. Short for sure, but fun!
It's just hard to understand that the top of your finger must be exactly under a button to be able to press it.
A button won't be pressed if you're not correclty aligned, even if the Villain is playing the "pointing my finger" animation.
Original idea was to add few mini-games in Villain OS menu, but it was my first LD and I had big problems with time management (especially on first day), so the game has turned very short and controls are not really perfect.
Don't know when exactly, but there definitely will be post-compo version with bunch of improvements.
Charging the weapon is caressing the cat is humor lol.
Good idea to play a villain this way :p
Here's a tip, embed your swf file into a html page, then you can centre it and have it sit nicely on a dark background.
The cat and the evil laugh really makes us a villain.
Good job !
Great idea and well done, but a little bit too short
P.S. Greetings from Omsk Ludum Dare! ;)
Reminded me of Enviro Bear 2000.
Reminds me Inspector Gadget ^^
And Enviro-Bear in the Gameplay
It deserves to become a full lenght game (even if it's WAY good enough for 48h)
The hands following the mouse is neat if a little clunky at times, aiming at the satelite things is just tricky enough to give you something to do while you laugh at how funny the idea is.
Also, a cool touch would have been a "pressing" animation for the finger. Even a single frame one would have given it a nicer feeling.
