We are the Monsters by Aglavra

[raw]
made by Aglavra for LD33 (JAM)
Due to unexpected lack of time at the weekend, I switched to Jam from Compo. The only Jam opportunity, that I used, was additional time. The game has no sounds and all graphics are drawn by hand and then scanned. I worked on the game about 8 hours in total, and I hope, I will have more time on next LD.

To play the game, download an .swf and launch it in your browser. An option to play online will be added in a few days.

The game is really short. The objective is to force small fish to go to angler fish, so it can eat them. Use arrows to move, and wait to see next screen. I hope it is playable. (There is a bug, that allows you to leave the screen and makes the game stuck. If it is allowed by the jam rules, I will fix it tomorrow).

Selfish monster is selfish ^^;
The art style is more unique due to hand drawn + scanned pictures.
Wish there was more to the game, it indeed was pretty short.

I love the hand-drawn graphics! That gives the game a lot of character. Also, the idea of "monsters" helping each other is something I haven't seen. Very cool!

I liked the end ^^
The graphics are cool it would have been even better with at least a little animation though :y

I liked the drawings. They almost remind me of Paper Mario.

Cute! If you like painting, start using a tablet. For a program I would recommend Krita. Nice!

I love the hand-drawn aesthetic. It would have been nice to have more animations, but even without it still has a nice look to it.

Great look and interesting idea, but very short. I liked the ending, and I enjoyed scaring "The End" :)

Funny.
But buggy, small and too... primitive.
But I liked the ending. Nice.
