Evolution

Here is our wacky little project.

In our game, you begin as an amoeba and make choices to morph into different things/people.

It's not much, but hey at least we were able to submit something!

You will need Java 1.7 or later to run it. Use the up/down arrow keys and enter to navigate the interface.

The music works on some computers, but sounds weird on others. We unfortunately didn't have enough time to fix this entirely. I will include both jars with and without music.

All the art is original, the music came from https://incompetech.com/.

Software used: Eclipse, Gimp, Paint.net, Java 1.7 with the standard libraries

Enjoy and let us know what you think!

I can't tell which is the game, the quiz to play the game, or the game itself

The game is sort of a quiz in and of itself. It's simply making choices to see what you can end up as.

Your download link with sound seems to go to your ludum dare 31 entry. The second link seems to be correct. Interesting game concept. Sneaky use of the theme.

Had to use the soundless version too, the link to the version with sound seems to be wrong. The game concept is interesting! It's fun to try all options to see what you end up becoming, though I wish there were more choices.

But honestly, some of the results don't really seem like much of an evolution from amoeba. :P

Thank you guys for your responses. I apologize for the incorrect first link.

The link should be fixed now.

I like that floating animation. I was a bit disappointed, that there is so little evolution in the game (the jump from amoeba to Nerd is pretty big).
