Monster Companion by Leuthil
You are taking your little pets out for a walk when suddenly dangerous red spike balls come out of nowhere! Try to stay alive as long as possible by any means necessary, even using your pets as a shield - you monster! But be careful, your pets will get upset if they get hurt or if you don't feed them and may work against you!
Controls
WASD/Arrow Keys to move.
About
This is my first time participating in Ludum Dare. It's been fun but quite a challenge as well. I used Unity and had to use a few assets from the Asset Store that I had already purchased in the past. Pretty much everything has been used from others except for the main game logic. I have learned a lot from this and am hoping next LD I will be able to use everything created by me :)

Nice mechanic with the pets getting mad and moving away from the spikes.

Yeah, I hate running into the red spikes when I'm taking my pets on a walks and they don't make an adequate shield. Clever!

Decent gameplay with decent graphics. Kept hearing a website repeated in the background music though and it was hard to keep going very far.

Cool start. If the controls were a little tighter it would be great!

Very good mechanics!!! Very good the idea of having the pets working against you.

Loved the mechanics and the use of the physics system in this entry. The fact that the smaller pet monsters can turn against you and slow you down if you use them as a meat shield too much was a pretty clever surprise. Overall, a very good game considering this is your first Ludum Dare (welcome btw :D).

Simple mechanics but done well. Great for a first attempt.
