I think the controls are better suited for a touch screen. The little bars are a bit confusing at first."},{"author_name":"commanderstitch","author_uid":"14366","time":"Aug 27, 2012 @ 4:41pm","epoch":1346085360,"text":"Very interesting game, it's different. If you click the x button it makes a random explosion appear! haha destroy your population faster! It was very difficult to get the partners to get together, they seemed to die much faster than i could pick. Very nice idea though, maybe have only a couple be effected and spread it like a virus that you have to try to stop. :)"},{"author_name":"MortalWombat","author_uid":"14060","time":"Aug 27, 2012 @ 4:51pm","epoch":1346085960,"text":"I like the idea but there are some points that made it less fun for me:\r<br\/>\r<br\/>- I found it really hard to get them to mingle most of the time, the controls are a little unintuitive in my opinion.\r<br\/>\r<br\/>- The balancing and pacing isn't quite right. I couldn't focus on the inheritance aspect of it at all, because they all die so quickly. A smaller portion of the map with less people and a bit more longevity would probably have fit this well.\r<br\/>\r<br\/>Nonetheless, I think there is a really fun mechanic hiding in there, you just need to get it out somehow. ;)"},{"author_name":"lajos","author_uid":"14574","time":"Aug 27, 2012 @ 6:11pm","epoch":1346090760,"text":"Thanks for the comments. I had much greater ambitions, like level progression, some attraction behavior, but then it was Sunday afternoon ;) I also agree that the controls needed a bit more work."},{"author_name":"csanyk","author_uid":"10473","time":"Sep 1, 2012 @ 4:26pm","epoch":1346516460,"text":"Really liked the concept, but controlling a large population with a bunch of tiny mouse movements seems to be a bit too much for me.  Larger sprites and some way of controlling them more effectively would make this much better."}],"images":["ld24\/14574-b5c11487120e96403f7a1abd15915109.jpg","ld24\/14574-1d593e54860e03fd77d78725fd4d5c9c.jpg","ld24\/14574-ce3427ccfe1b040212672988a13df818.jpg","ld24\/14574-d4eb36f57f483764c0955b453346842a.jpg","ld24\/14574-8f0989c465b70b9155f728bdc6539bfd.jpg"],"links":[{"url":"http:\/\/www.panka.com\/LD24\/Kryphilis.zip","text":"Windows"},{"url":"http:\/\/www.panka.com\/LD24\/Kryphilis_Source.zip","text":"Source"}],"metadata":{"g_key":"29868","g_author":"14574","g_event":"LD24","g_eventkey":"12","g_subevent":"COMPO","g_urlkey":"29898","g_title":"Kryphilis","g_status":"UCHK1","g_place":"99999","g_commentcount":"5","g_site2_node_id":"0","g_hide":"N","g_has_icon":"Y","g_rqueue":"0","g_random":"0"},"nds":[],"node":null,"orig_images":["http:\/\/ludumdare.com\/compo\/wp-content\/compo2\/\/163678\/14574-shot0.jpg-eq-900-500.jpg","http:\/\/ludumdare.com\/compo\/wp-content\/compo2\/\/163678\/14574-shot1.jpg-eq-900-500.jpg","http:\/\/ludumdare.com\/compo\/wp-content\/compo2\/\/163678\/14574-shot2.jpg-eq-900-500.jpg","http:\/\/ludumdare.com\/compo\/wp-content\/compo2\/\/163678\/14574-shot3.jpg-eq-900-500.jpg","http:\/\/ludumdare.com\/compo\/wp-content\/compo2\/\/163678\/14574-shot4.jpg-eq-900-500.jpg"],"text":"KRYPHILIS\r\n\r\nNo good.
