Post your score in the comments! Let's see who's the true bad guy :D No lying though!

AAAAND here it is! Get as many points as you can in this evil arcade game.

Backstory: You, Kraorga, awake once every thousand years and rain havoc upon the world. But now, the humans believe they can slay you: show them no mercy!

If I had had more time, I would have added sounds, more good guys trying to slay the evil dragon, added more than just cosmetic diversity between weapons (that's right, they don't do anything differently xD) and maybe polished it up a little, but oh well. Oh, and I would have included a goat, of course!

Have fun and Ludum Dare forever!

It gets hard really fast, if you don't kill the first ones fast enought.

But was kinda fun anyways. And the looks of the enemies are cool.

I like the gameplay but it is hard. Nice one!

This has some really cool ideas in it. I love the dragon's movement and how he "rolls" himself around. Very cool. Nice graphics as well.

Gets hard real quick, yep. Would love to see a more polished version.

Looks nice, quickly gets too hard.

very fun! I really liked the art and dragon's motion. Definitely a hard game, but it does what it has to do.

I love the character art and the dragon movement. The difficulty curve seems like it shouldn't ramp up so quickly. I didn't really feel like I had a chance after a while. Cool game!

Also, changing weapons with the scroll wheel causes my browser to scroll the page.

liked the concept, very hard, but very good too

So much fun and so hard! The characer is what I loved the most, an orienal dragon!
And I heard no sound. Sad.

Simple control, fun but hard game.

Nice concept :) I really loved the style of the characters and the HUD! The gameplay is interesting but a little slow and it gets difficult really fast :3 Also, when I use the scrolling wheel in my browser (FF) it also scrolls the page :/

Really liked the dragon animation. Too difficult for me but lots of potential.

Puffi20 Dec 2012, 16:02

Love the graphics (Im a sucker for retro pixely look)!
Really nice mechanics as well, but as previous comments have stated, gets really hard quite fast.

Nice one overall!

The graphics fit the game really well, but it gets very difficult very early. Still plenty fun.

Eamon21 Dec 2012, 16:11

I loved the graphics and the gameplay! However the movement felt a little clunky and slow but that may be my browser, good try!

Only 260 on trackpad but I doubt it'd be easier even with a mouse. The only thing that irked me (though it was a design decision rather than a bug) was to shoot at something you had to be moving at them but you couldn't get off enough shots to really clear waves. Amazing graphics and overall it ran smoothly, nice job.

Great game. I like the concept of being a dragon ^^

Skye21 Dec 2012, 21:42

A little bit on the hard side. Sound either wasn't working or wasn't there. I like it a lot though. Maybe a polished version could be released?

This is great! Love the controls, they make the entire game.

Thanks to everyone who played and rated my game! I did a little better in all departments than last LD, and next one I'll do even better. Thanks for the feedback, sorry there was no sound :[. I'll try and manage my time better next time.

Until next LD!
