True Monster by kles4enko
"True Monster"
All in game - black humor. Nothing seriously.
I used PlayN (http://playn.io/) java framework for implement all OpenGL, Sound and input stuff.
Graphics is created in fantastic Aseprite pixelart tool (http://www.aseprite.org/).
Great soundtrack from Sindal.
I saw here more, like procedural map generation, doctors ai and nice animations. But I had not time. Isometric physics from scratch took more time...
>>> How to play: moving via arrows and 'z' key for attack. After gameover you can push 'ESQ' key and try again.
>>> Requirements: Installed Java 8, 256M RAM, OpenGL 2.0, available keys:UP,LEFT,RIGHT,DOWN,Z
>>> NOTE: download links are links to archive with executable jar. Just extract and double click on it.

I really couldn't get much better than 22 kills on my four tries. Maybe I'm just bad at games. :)
I liked the overall feel of the game. The moving could've been a little more smoother maybe.
All in all a nice and funny entry to the ludum dare.
I actually really liked how simple this was. I played until I ran out of time because I wanted a high score. Its interesting how simple mechanics can be. In a world where game design is getting more complicated, playing this might allow me to step back and rethink what is really important in a game.
my highscore is 25, the hardest part is controls
anyway, game give to me a fun, and this is important! ;)
Sweet audio!+
