Ankabot by Cloudeyes

[raw]
made by Cloudeyes for LD33 (JAM)
You play as a rare hungry spider walking on the window of some cruel human eating bugs off his window in order to stay alive and serve your role as the higher predator in your surrounds... but less you knew you were not alone...

Use W to move forward, AD side ways. No backwards because our rare spider doesn't know how to move backwards.
Move the mouse cursor to change the rotation of the spider.
Use Left Mouse Button to attack.
Use E and Q to zoom in and out.
Use Z to toggle mouse look.

Oh, and the game does have an ending, but be patient.
Have fun hunting! :)

Fun Fact:
Our artists have entomophobia (fear of insects).

Edit,
We are aware that the game has other unexpected bugs, we are working on fixing them!

Bugs we are currently fixing:
- Parallax Effect not working, the speed of the trees effect should be reduced.
- Change the colour of the 'blood' of the insects.
- Modify the range of the zoom, and change the starting zoom of the camera.
- Sometimes, when an insect collides with you, it stops moving.

Thanks for you patience!

CuteKat Team.

I like the graphics a lot - it's a very nice, almost pointillist style and it works very well.

The gameplay is pretty basic but there's a reasonable amount of skill involved in it. Overall it's a fun game and a well done project.

Just to nitpick, if I remember right spiders and flies don't have blood, they have hemolymph, which ranges from transparent to a blueish-green color. But whatever, poetic licence.

Well done!

Cool game, I liked how you progressively got bigger as you ate other bugs. One thing I would suggest is adding some sound effects, which would really make a your game like 110% better than it already is.

A spider that did that would scare the sh*t out of me. Thanks for the nightmares. Art is cool -- with the music it's almost a 'horror zen' kind of experience.

About the sound, we have the sound effects but we didn't have time to implement them. (In a matter of fact, I have a final exam in 2 hours ...)

Do you think if we add them now it'd be considered as part of the allowed "bug" fixing? It's our first time participating so we are kinda clueless.

@Keon,
Yes you are right and I dunno how we overlooked that. It will be fixed in the next version :)

@infernal
We'll take that into consideration.

And thank you all for the feedback.

Nice music. It was very difficult to run away from the enemies, and would like to do more than just to avoid them.

Great artwork :D
Like the spider animation a lot!
Is it possible to beat the game or is it infinite?

I like the fact the spider gets bigger but I don't like the fact nothing about it changes - same speed, rotation etc. And there is no attack animation or sound effects - both would really lift this game.

Hello TackoramaLtd .

actually we had the Player Animations and the Attack Animations with Sound Effect in Mind but unfortunately we did't have enough time to implement them

Yes, visually nothing changes about the spider when it grows size, but your attack power/range increase and so does your maximum health.

And again, thank y'all for your awesome feedback :)

Good game, reminds me of Fishy.

-. Needs some visual feedback for the "attack". It took some time for me to be convinced that it actually works.
-. I don't see any situation where I would want to zoom in, or lock the mouse.
