Intergalactic Oil Baron Simulator 2012 by Ragepyro

made by Ragepyro for LD25 (COMPO)

Intergalactic Oil Baron Simulator 2012.

Ended up being more like Global Oil Sales Boringator 1985, but I digress. All the info you need is in the zip.

Sorry non-windows people, I couldn't figure out monogame quickly enough this time, so there's no linux/mac versions. Please don't hate me ;_;

Should probably add that it requires XNA 4, which you can get from microsofts site here: http://www.microsoft.com/en-us/download/details.aspx?id=20914

The game showed an error when I tried to run it, I'm on windows 7 64bit.

I'm also on Windows 7 64 bit and it did work. I like the idea of an oil baron simulation. I had some trouble figuring out to play at first but eventually won!

I got a bug after I bought all the oil rigs and upgraded them all. The game didn't end http://i.imgur.com/EIJc4.png

Really easy game. Rigs are always profitable, just make sure you can survive the first month's upkeep after buying a new rig.

I was going to add in market fluctuation and oil rigs breaking, the sprites for rigs breaking are actually in the game. I just didn't get around to implementing all of that as I feel it's better to submit a complete and easy game than one that is broken and hard.

Your download link no longer works. I will check back later to see if it works again. (Get "File Not Found" page from dropbox)

I think it had potential, but it's obviously unfinished.

oh no, I'm very evil!
Haha, what a weird game that was.
About Linux/IOS: you are allowed to port to a different platform after the 48 hours.

Hehe, so, I'm evil? Then ON YOUR KNEES LITTLE OIL USING PEOPLE :-) Nice idea! Could use a little more to do, but you already said that ...
(Win7 64bit all ok)

Could use a bit of work, but it's quite nicely done, especially for the time.
