SAUROPOD vs THEROPOD
====[ UPDATE! Web version now available! ]====
Thanks to rnlf's awesome Motor2d, there is now a web version available of SAUROPOD vs THEROPOD, which means you can play it straight from your browser. Click the "web" link below to play it.
Please note: the web version is experimental. If you encounter any issues, please use one of the other downloads instead.
More info about Motor2d can be found here: https://github.com/rnlf/motor/
P.S. the web version doesn't have the variation in the walking sound that the downloadable version does have. This doesn't have implications for the gameplay however, it is merely an audible detail.
================================
Controls:
-----
- arrow keys to move
- X and C for combat
About:
-----
In SAUROPOD vs THEROPOD you assume the role of a small Sauropod with great ambitions. Watch out though, because a pack of aggressive Theropods are hunting for you! Can you survive long enough to evolve into an epic dinosaur that will stand the test of time?
Features:
-----
* 200+ actual real dinosaur names
* 70+ voice recorded dinosaur sounds (that's me impersonating dinos)
* infinite evolution (they just keep on growing)
* nerve-wracking combat (using just two buttons)
* randomly generated levels
* gameplay spanning millions of years
================================
This is my 3rd entry for Ludum Dare. It is the first time I've made a game using the LÖVE framework (http://love2d.org). It was quite enjoyable to use it. Hopefully as I gain experience, I will be able to produce better games in shorter amounts of time, because I didn't have time this weekend to do all the art I had intended to make, resulting in a pretty bare looking game xD
The soundtrack is available on my Soundcloud: https://soundcloud.com/martijnwf/sets/ld34-sauropod-vs-theropod
