Hello and good day there! :) Meet /cast. Personally, the very first game I've ever made. I think it's quite a simple yet difficult game. Imagine charades without the constant hand-holding of clues mixed with the vastness of possibilities alike a text-adventure. And to top it off, an accelerated failure state!
Update: NEWB DETECTED. Totally forgot about WinRAR. Uploaded. RARs are now available for all platforms.
> How do I PLAY this game: Played Charade before? Then you'll know how to play this! Get guessing - get spamming, my friend!
> How do I WIN this game: Through trial and error (and HINTS!) you will be able to solve the 3-word string to cast the spell to push away the apocalypse before the meteor hits!
> How do I NOT LOSE this game: #protip Each keystroke on your keyboard will push back the meteor a little but it will also increase the speed of the meteor. So, yes, spamming is a completely viable tactic - until the meteor builds up too much speed and then you're boned hard. :O #notsoprotip
I'm a first-timer for Ludum Dare. I wanted to find an excuse to learn in a crash-course manner both programming in JS and the Unity engine itself. And oh boy, it was a mad but fun journey! :)
Hey wer2chosen & ilikescifi, So sorry about the vagueness. x) Added a little extra game-play description to hopefully help with that. Thank you both for the visit! x)
Hi! I'm on Linux so I can't use the unity web player. Downloading everything from Google drive takes way too long (I can't download the whole directory?). Can you please host it somewhere else or just zip it please? Thanks :)
Nice game, i somehow managed to not find the last word, but it was still kind of fun to try to guess what kind of sick word meant "a warm feeling in our heart".
Pretty awesome!!! Figured it out (with the help of the preposition cheat sheet :P), and it was quite fun!! Would have loved a longer game with more content.
Nice graphics and a good wibe! I couldn't figure out the words, only the first one. I would have liked more challenges, to complete to get access to more clues.
@ProfessorRekyl & @Maurogik, Muahahaha, it's a good thing that it's difficult. Supposed to really bring out that "OMG BUT IT COULD BE ANYTHING" kinda feeling. Thanks for playing! x)
@Arkrothe & One Muppet, Thanks for playing! x) I would love to add more, but my programming skills doesn't allow that, ahaha! I'm too much of a newb, caused a lot of thing to break when tried adding more. /Facepalm.
I liked your visuals but were pretty disappointed in the gameplay. It had better use in a text adventure but I think your game deserved some more innovative gameplay
I really like the scene :) ! Didn't find the charade, english being not my mother tongue. Just going to come back later, looking for a spoiler in the commments :3 ...
Congratulations on finishing your first game, your first LD, and in fact your first programming project. I really liked the atmosphere and the mood in this one, but couldn't really figure out how to play it (nothing happens when I type stuff into the prompt). Anyway, keep it up, looking forward to seeing your entry in the next Ludum Dare!
Congratulations on finishing your first LD, thought the visuals worked really well but did struggle figuring out the last word. Multiple clues could be a nice addition.

Heh, thank you!

Thanks for trying! x) Haha, I think it's my fault, general consensus have been saying that the game a little to difficult.
