I had a lot of fun making four simple games for the THE 371-IN-1 KLIK & PLAY PIRATE KART II: KLIK HARDER.  It was basically a challenge to see if a bunch of random people could make at least 371 games over the February 27-28 weekend.  We succeeded and then some!  106 people contributed and 529 games were made.

Most of the simply used graphics and sounds stolen from other sources, but I decided to make custom content for all my games.  My favourite is Rolling Hills, which even has music!

My four games can be found at here. Have fun!

Alien Game Prototype

For one of the Ludum Dare mini competitions a few months back I started hacking together a simple arcade style game.  The human race is being attacked an eaten by a vicious alien species.  You play the role of a benevolent alien who comes to the rescue of the helpless humans.

Originally the only defence the hero had against the invading aliens was going to be a tractor beam — where you must grab and throw the aliens to get rid of them.  After showing it to the Pipe Cleaner Man he insisted that I added lasers and homing missiles, so I did.

I’m not certain what I’m going to do with this project.  As it began as a quick hack for a 48 hour competition, it is not very well designed.  It would need a considerable amount of rewriting before being able to transform it into a real game.

For the time being I think I’ll hold off before posting the actual game for download.  I would like to add at least a simple scoreboard and actually being able to win or lose before sharing it.
