Vampires suck! by chriiis88

[raw]
made by chriiis88 for LD34 (COMPO)
You must grow the vampire population by turning all humans into vampires. Be careful not to attack vampire hunters or other vampires. Drinking blood fills your bloodmeter which you can use to activate Vampire Vision to differentiate between humans, hunters and other vampires.

Controls:
Mouse to select
Q for Vampire Vision
W for attacking

Fun game, with a creative idea!

The vampire vision did drain the bloodmeter a bit fast, but the mechanics were entertaining. I liked the graphics - the animation you get as the vampire hunter beats you, was especially funny, and the attack animation worked pretty well.

Great game!

Also, thumbs up for using LibGDX!

Quite fun. The bloodmeter drained a little fast when using vampire vision though so it's hard to use it without losing.

Teeechnically the mouse is a button, so it's a 3 button game. But makes up for it by being actually quite good :)

Also, I'm not a wampire, honestleeey... Bleeeeeeh!

Nice game :). Although vampires do not suck and i find your title very offensive.

@sathorn: If they don't suck, how else do they get the blood out of humans?

Fun concept with forcing Player to use vamp-o-vision just for a split second to find your victims among the crowd. The whole vampirism spread aspect could be a bit better accented though.

Time has stopped! *turns person into vampire*
The game was quite easy when you can eat several humans in a row (they wont change position very much so easy to remember 3-4 humans that you can eat next)
Gameplay idea was good though :)

Interesting concept, definitely a unique application of the theme so good job with that. I liked the polish of the different animations when you try to attack each type of person.

Nice game, some audio would be great. The idea is pretty simple, it would totally rock if there was some more mechanics and animations. Keep up with the good work!

Man, this game sucks! For all right reason! ha!

The control was kind of confusing, I'd thought you were attempting a 2-button control theme given the premise of the settings. I was wrong. Allowing a walking mechanism with the arrows would have provided a more interactive experience, I think.

Good job.
