KRYPTONATOR is the unconventional weapon for this 2D fighter game with a twist—the villain is the hero! The goal is for one of Superman’s villains (Bad Grrl or Lex Luthor) to defeat him in as many battles as possible. This is my first Ludum Dare jam submission though I made games during the Dare's 29-31 weekends. I was a FORTRAN programmer in the 1980s, but pursued an entrepreneurial career until I became disabled in 2000. Now my health has improved so much I'm teaching myself Java and Javascript. My ideas and coding examples for Kryptonator came from a combination of games in OpenProcessing.org and a Processing tutorial by Nikolaus Gradwohl. I'm studying Box2D and have ideas for and plans to create a Kryptonator 2 version with 2D physics. The images and sounds used are in the public domain. Special thanks to Jesse Valentine for the free download of the theme music "Viper." (jessevalentinemusic.bandcamp.com) This game runs in the Safari and Firefox browsers.
