So I am posting the result of our work (Ormaz and Billos as the Ondule Team !)
This is not complete, more of a first experience. The point of the game is to hit the chests, avoiding the badguys, and the bad squares.
The bad guys are not moving, algorithm wasn't implemented. Accuracy of the click isn't really good either.
I know that a jar file isn't the most cool game to try, and we really wanted to provide a webapp, but basically it just stopped working when I tried to deploy it on AppEngine, and I've been fighting with GWT for the last 10 hours (and now I'd prefer kill myself than work again on that :/ ).
How to play : just use the mouse. When it's game over, you should relaunch the jar. Unless my coworker did something but wouldn't tell me.
Any source code is available, just have to ask :)
Hope you will still enjoy the game (somehow), and give us a feedback.
I was really confused and would have been frustrated if the sad llama didn't cheer me up every time I lost. Then I started to get the hang of it!
Keep refining! And I fought with GWT for a long time before I got it working also! My problem was that I was running a 32 bit version of Eclipse and a x64 bit version of Java, so neither the 32 or 64 bit GWT would work. I uninstalled everything and got the 32 bit versions of them all and things started deploying.
That might not be your problem, but that's what worked for me!
Interesting concept, although personally I would have made the chests move faster each time rather than making the screen smaller. Otherwise good game!
At least you tried to do something nice with the theme, so kudos for that, the game was really simple but at least you made an entry, and with that, you can only improve! So keep at it, and before you know it you'll have a Ludum Dare Winner! :P
