For this entry I used LWJGL 3.0 and InkScape.
I really had trouble trying to think of a good idea for this theme, and even up to the end I'm not really happy with my choice.
I decided to try and make a classic zelda-esque gameplay game (not in scope only in mechanics!) where you would be the monster instead of the hero while trying to defend your home. I wanted to try and convey the idea that the world viewed you as a monster although you begin the game innocent of crime - but I never really got around to fleshing out any narrative.
I managed to finish a full gameplay loop (start-play-die-repeat), albeit without any sounds.
Have fun!
