Rabbit by minnouu

[raw]
made by minnouu for LD32 (COMPO)
Rabbit - A game about a girl who can't get to sleep at night. She uses her magical stuffed toy as a weapon against the encroaching darkness.

Controls: WASD or Arrow Keys to move, [Space] to use the doll (you can't move while using the doll). The small enemies hone in on you, and they can be repelled by the doll. The larger enemies ignore you, but are sped up if they are hit by the doll's light. As the night goes on, it gets harder to avoid these foes...

My first ever submission to Ludum Dare. Hopefully I'm not biting off more than I can chew making a game for the comp on my first submission.

If the game isn't responding to controls, try unplugging any game pads you have plugged in. There might be a bug. Sorry about that.

Great idea. Think i need to crank up my brightness to be able to beat the later levels :)

As a side note it didnt seem to be responding to keyboard input, but that was because i leave my controller plugged in.

The game crashes for me when I hit Play or Instructions. I am on Win 7. Not sure how helpful this can be but here is where it crashed and call stack: http://pastebin.com/QaUpeYsG

Cool game, just a bit too hard sometimes, especially when it gets darker ;-)

@ Jadernak Thanks for the crash log. It seems like it's having trouble loading the sprite sheet... If you're running it from the source code, see if in the "Properties" of the assets are set to "Content" and "Copy Always". If you're running it from the game, make sure the "Content" folder is in the same folder as the application. Not really sure what's wrong...

I wasn't able to interact with the game past the title screen. I was able to select How to Play but in game I couldn't move or wave my bun around.

Nice job! I had a blast laying this :) I died laughing when I found out how to attack. Really creative and great work!

nice work! I like the progressive difficulty as the time goes on. Having to adjust strategies between the small enemies and the large ones gives a nice added challenge.

Loved the idea of increasing difficulty with increasing darkness over time!
