Just a little hangman clone. Keep the DUCK alive (by guessing the sentence)ludum_dare_46_keep_the_duck_alive.jpg

WebGl build shows different colors?! Will try to fix this in the next days.

Some more Text:
As always. So many ideas and so little time ;-) I have been working on a small Hangman clone this weekend. It was the first thing that came to my mind about "Keep it alive" and I really wanted to try out these hinge joints and other physics... And so I had a lot of fun with some technical gimmicks... Another funny thing... "a low poly duck in blender... That must be possible just like that" ;-) (Small hint - No... it is not simply so feasible if you haven't used blender in a while ;-) )

In the end I also had problems with the WebGL build. Something crashed the colors. I'll have a look at it again when I get the chance.

Post Jam Update: I still have problems with the colors of the WebBuild. Now it is to dark ;-) GameJam (old) Version is here... http://www.megagem.net/LD46-keeptheduckalive-version1/

Really nice visualization of hangman here, the 'Rope Cam' is great!

Nice twist on the classic HangmanGame. I could actually use it in my class. :)

I lost it at the first sentence :laughing:
Really dig the solutions. One of them having numbers had me scared at first.

Good choice of win music too!

the graphics is pretty neat, with nice duck. the cylinders in the left side of the screen had nice colours and i liked that.

I enjoyed this game, I really liked how you censored out the duck on a failure.

Hangman is fun, and this is a pretty amusing package to put it in. I was a little disappointed with the small number of sentences, I started seeing duplicates after only a few rounds, but a solid effort overall.

A very strange and amusing variant on Hangman!

Cool game with its sounds and musics. I really like the loosing animation !
Few more sentences will be better.

Thanks ;)

Pretty cool game (like all the others said) Maybe with a bit more sentences to find ? Got some repetitive ones. Camera rope is really cool !

cool "zoom" effect). Maybe it is some sort of bug or i was unlucky - sometimes i had similar words in a row

Thanks for all your comments. I will add more sentences in a few minutes ;-) I still have some problems with the colors in the WebGl build ;-) Hopefully I will find a solution. Again... Thanks for all your replys...
