Lake Monster
You are the loch ness monster! But not quite what everyone thinks.
Touch the screen to extend a tentacle (it will follow your mouse).
Your tentacle can only grow so long...
Snatch the tourists! Don't get caught!
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
I was juuuuuust about to finish better collision, but the deadline has come and I reverted
back to crappy box collision. Beware the sonar/headlight/thingies! They have VERY generous hit rects.
This was my wife's first Ludum Dare! This was a fun weekend project -- got to teach her C# and a bit of Unity programming.
We built it with Futile + Unity + a custom UI toolset that I've been working on.

I like this color and style (80's?) The gameplay is also feeling fresh. most points go to mood, graphics, theme, fun and innovation.. Good job!

Well done, I like this idea very much :)

Well executed game! Had a lot of fun :-)

A great idea, and nice game. The submarine hitbox was a challenge. I couldn't complete Level 5

Gah, why do people keep using unity, it sucks, & isn't usable on some computers, also old browsers, although most people here wouldn't be using old browsers, it still doesn't work on a lot of computers.

Nice idea and well executed. Lovely art style as well.

Great presentation. Simple but fun mechanics. Had a problem with submarine turnings, but otherwise it's good.

This is so fun! Very nice entry!

If you can, take time to make more level, some more gamplay mechanics, and and 2 ergonomic improvement : higlight who catch you when you're seen, and don't instant revert boat, but make a small rotate time and animation. You perhaps have the next angry bird killer :p

5 out of 5 for innovation

Very good idea! I had a good laugh. I could not hear any sound. But still a great entry!

I loved this game!
I really like the visuals and the fact that Nessie isn't quite what we expected!
The mechanics are really good and not something I've come across before. Just wish the hit boxes were a bit more forgiving but you're aware of that.
Great stuff. :)

Liked it, one question, as a Scottish person - Newcastle Journal?!

This had a completely different "feel" compared to all the other games I've played (and by no means is that a bad thing) along with the art style. I liked it. :)

Great mechanic! Finding the true form of nessy was really funny. Also I might borrow the way you made the tentacle for our game.

Really interesting. Love the press intermedes.
Maybe you should add some more mecanics (kill some boats with temporary powers, moving tourists, ...).
Good start !

I recently came across your blog and have been reading along. I thought I would leave my first comment. I don't know what to say except that I have enjoyed reading. Nice blog. I will keep visiting this blog very often.
