ON THE RUN (made in 48 hours - Ludum Dare 25) ====================================================== You just robbed a bank but your buddy with the car was too stupid to find you. Suddenly the police appears - and you are ON THE RUN! And your buddy with the money just drops it in his great haste. Go collect it - ALL of the money! And dont get busted by the police! ====================================================== Have Fun & Thank You for Playing!
/EDIT: I tried to fix the starting issues (with the help of webglhelper.js). I updated the Files.
INTERNET EXPLORER 10 - well, It's Complicated. The IEWebGL Plugin ( http://iewebgl.com/Download.aspx ) may work. For me it was very slow and unplayable. :(
CHROME 23 - locally: start "chrome.exe" -allow-file-access-from-files to give Chrome access to the textures.
F.A.Q ------------------------------------------------------ 1. To run the game just open "index.html".
2. Gamecontrols are: "W": up "A": left "S": down "D": right "SPACE": restart
3. I bet you cant get all dat money! :-)
4. Technical Stuff: - just had "simple quad with texture renderer" - framework ready and wrote rest of engine in contest - excuse me for bad performance(!) - it needs some work... - used photoshop and paint.net for textures - sfxr for sounds
5. I want to make a Developers' Cut Edition with great performance, fair gameplay (... fair hitboxes ^_^ ...), a nice intro and music would be cool ... stay tuned ;)
Nice idea, reminds me of Grand Theft Auto (I wonder if there are more GTA like games in the compo...) But reducing collision boxes would make it more fun, probably! Cops catch you when they seem to be still not touching you! :D
@Luis Anton you are right, the hitboxes are not that fair.. @dvdking Yes it is hard. But it has also a strategic element - I guarantee it is possible to collect all the 1,5k money and get away :) I wanted to do an intro but ran out of time (and was very tired at the end ^^)
I just released a fix which will hopefully remove the starting problems.. @agmcleod, I want to make a Developers' cut edition with cool music but I unfortunately have little to nada experience with making cool music ;(
I really should mention that it is easier to win the game if you use the "strafe"-technique to run faster - press up or down and left/right together - walk diagonally to run faster :o

A heist and backstabbing-simulator! Love the story-touch :)
I enjoyed it, was very hard to do much though, I think perhaps the collision detection with the police should be a little tighter (they kept arresting me when we were not touching). Overall though really good.
No idea what I'm doing, but felt compelled to move around and not get nicked. Good stuff.

Not bad, although I got frustrated when I found the boundaries of the level to appear to have exits which I couldn't pass through and ended up being caught! Collision boxes seemed a bit on the huge side for the resolution available. Upping the screen space would probably compensate for this in a minch imho. Some fitting graphics in here. Reminds me a lot of ye olde GTA.

There seems to be a problem with loading..
windows 7, chrome 23, jre
Would be nice to have some kind of intro.

I like the graphics :)
