[Game Description]


You play as the Candyman, a recent escapee from The Candy Factory, an evil corporation powered by kids buying their candy around the world. In order to stop The Candy Factory you must get rid of their customers, the kids.. Use your body parts to wipe out as many of the children as you can but don't let them get too close, they might gobble you up.

[Controls]


WASD - Move
Tab - Open Bodypart Map
Q - Switch hands
Scroll - Change hotbar selection
Shift - Sprint

[Mechanics]


You can take off and put back your own body parts to use as weapons against the children, seeing as how you're made of candy you feel no pain. Your arms act as candy cane melee weapons and your head acts as a mint launcher, your torso - a shield - is unfinished and does nothing, neither do your legs.
The higher your score the more difficult the enemies become and their spawn frequency increases.

[Tldr]


This game is mostly unfinished I wouldn't really recommend playing it but go ahead if you feel inclined, the music is
short and annoying.

[Post mortem or something


So here it is, my game for LD44. I got a really late start and almost gave up saturday night but ended up cobbling something together on sunday, its nowhere near complete nor what I wanted but at least I got something, Ludum dare is more about the experience than the product anyways.
