Tiny Life ========= Entry for Ludum Dare 23 by armornick.
Gameplay -------- A small and simple ascii graphics strategy game. Currently has only one weapon and two enemies. Thus nothing more than a whack-a-mole game. With mines.
Maybe you could make the microorganisms follow a trajectory and limit the number of mines. This way the user has to put the mines in an intersection point where 2 or more organisms cross.
*I'm posting this on all non-browser games I bring up in an attempt to encourage folks to make browser games next time around. Do not take it personally.*
When hundreds of people make non-browser games, that means that, to play all of the entries, I would need to download hundreds of games to my computer. I typically use OS X, so Windows-only entries are particularly inconvenient.
Hey, just letting you know that that preview image isn't very good. When viewed from the list of games, it just seems completely black. Maybe upload a picture of a zoomed in section of the game? Something that's visible in the screenshot.
Also I'm getting a file not found error, and from the looks of the downloads, it seems like everyone else is too. :C
It's a strange thing, those downloads. I uploaded the love file to github and it's even there in my list of files but when I click it, it says file not found.
About the sound, I did have sounds in my first version but some things happened and I had to restart with only 10 hours left so I didn't have time to implement everything.

Please consider making a browser game next time.
Couldn't download .love file but running the sources through Love worked.
But funny, i like the ascii graphics.
The ending text was kind of amusing though, and you made it in Love2D, which is awesome.
One last thing: you credit sfxr for sound effects, yet I heard nothing play? Is this a bug?
