Bite Frenzy by Testlab

[raw]
made by Testlab for LD33 (JAM)
You play as a Moskito mutant thing and you need to bite tasty humans!
But beware the humans can hear and see you when you are in front of them.
Goal: Kill all humans as fast as possible.
Tip: You can move silently on the ceiling.

This was my first try at the Ludum Dare and this is far from finished. But it was great fun :)

I used C++, OpenGL & SDL2. Tools that got used were Blender, Gimp, Codeblocks & gedit (for text files). I really would have loved to add Sound, but there was just not enough time for it.

Quite fun, the human attack hitbox is quite dangerously big.

I get a message saying SDL2.dll is missing. Where do i need to put it?
Anyhow, i think your take on the theme is very original :)
Congratz on you first LD!

Hey DinnerInTheDark! The SDL2.dll should be next to the executeable. The zip file should contain it. If that's not the case could you please try and redownload it?

The hitbox is quite big. I think it's mostly cause i felt they aren't much of a threat otherwise :D

I am really sorry that i can't share a mac version. I've no Mac so i don't know of a way to compile a version for it :/

Great mechanics maybe you could have added sound to make it more imersive as well as an end barrier or win condition. Otherwise great job!

Definitely a good start! Gets a little boring crawling along the ceiling then dropping down on people, but the hearing thing is a nice mechanic and I bet with a bit more time you could make a great game out of this (which applies to most LD entries I play, so that's not a bad thing)
