Dragon's Life by aceluck
In this strategy game, you, the dragon, must do your best to balance your lust for gold, and hunger for sheep, against the needs of the poor humans that live under your reign of terror.
See how much gold you can amass and how long you can survive!
Three different endings, level editor and a tutorial included, although only the first level got
ready by the deadline for the compo.
My first Ludum Dare! It's been fun, and definitely a learning experience. Especially learning how to draw...
The music is composed by me (apart from the brief folk tune in the tutorial) and performed by me on flute and trumpet and piano.
The binary is for Mac OSX - an iPad port will be started after the submission. Let me know if you're interested.

Second time round, I burnt the farm and that let me past the tutorial.
On the level after, I burnt the farm and didn't get any money, then later I died from "wounds" — but I didn't know I'd been sustaining any wounds?
I liked the audio — good job with the voiceover and sheep noises! Music was lovely too. The UI could use some work, to make it clearer what's happening!
It's all about balance - destroy them, and the economy, and they won't be able to provide you gold to hoard.
I'm working on extending the game and gameplay, I suppose I can't release it until the voting etc is over though.
Would have loved for the last level to have a 'target' (x gold?) too.
The good:
-The sound! You're crazily talented!
-The depth! There's a lot of gameplay in there.
The bad:
-It's very hard to get all the intricacies of the gameplay. In a Ludum Dare, some more explanation would really help people appreciate your game better.
The ugly:
-The knight that decided to kill me. Damn you, knight!
