MONEY GRAB: Ludum Dare #40
Entry by @JohnNWFS
Updated Dec 17, 2017: Added HTML5 updated version as a link. Bear in mind the executable is the "to be rated" version. The HTML5 export did not work at all at Ludum Dare #40 end. However, the new version mechanics are the same. I'll be updating the HTML 5 playable version over time.
The Game
Pick up money to start. Bank it for points. 'Relatives' will bug you to give them money
and block you from the bank. Hit space to give them all your pocketed money and continue.
The more money you hold the worse it is.
Relatives leave you alone when no money is in your Pocket.
WASD or Arrows to move.
Initial Version: No sound and All sprites are place holders without animation.
The "Real world" got in the way.
Executable version: It is playable - but with some animations,sounds and graphics would probably be more compelling!
@JohnNWFS
Unfinished was an option since I didn't get to replace my placeholder sprites w' clean animations and sound didn't get added. However, It's finished as far as the planned mechanic is concerned.
I'd really appreciate ratings for the basic game mechanics, humor (attempt) and mood.
I gave testers a "jump to level 100 button in the upper right.
However I'd certainly like feedback on making things more fun if you have any ideas.
