Pandarmageddon by blob

[raw]
made by blob for LD32 (JAM)
"Part man, part panda and part shark, you are result of a dreadful biological weapon experiment gone horribly wrong. Barely escaped from your alien captors, how long will you survive the army of robots they beam down after you?

Your only way to survive is to understand proper Panda and shark diet..."

Move with WASD or Arrow keys ( yay AZERTY people!)
Aim around with the mouse, left click to panda, right click to shark.
Pandarm does heavy mass damage while Sharkm is a good way to keep robots away.
They slowly starve to death, feed them!

If one arm dies, it cannot be used unless revived with an Ankh.
If both arm dies, it's game over.

Stay away from the UFO beams or they will capture you!

Bombs will damage nearby ennemies
Ankhs heal both arms a little bit and is the only way to revive a dead arm.

Hm... I always thought a proper shark diet also involved humans and not just Alien Robots. No wonder my mad science hasn't been working all this time!

That was really fun :p I've also done my game on multimedia fusion ;) Fun idea but I found much more bamboo than meat for the shark that starved really fast :(

Panda hand and shark hand definitely is an unconventional weapon.

Holy hell this is great. I almost passed this up because it's late and it didn't have a web player, but man am I glad I didn't. This music is amazing.

AHAHAHAHA that's the first time I've really laughed out loud during this voting period.

Awesome idea. Great artwork and animations. Rockin' soundtrack. Hilarious text. What more could you ask for?

This game deserves a spot in my permanent Games folder. Congrats team!

This one definitely fits the theme! It was a lot of fun, and it was a nice addition to the game having to feed your arms.

Thanks for playing, everybody! :)

@louis: yeah, it's purely random right now. Probably should have tweaked the randomness to force some type of food once in a while.

Thanks, that means a lot SonnyBone! :D

Awesome animation on that player character. I noticed the aliens had occasional quips but I was far too busy to read them :P.

Haha, this is quite an good (and funny) mechanic. :D I really like how each arm has its own healthbar and food. The graphics are also quite fitting. I wished there was a bit more warning of the UFO beam, through.

By the way, thank you very much for your comment on my jam/post jam version. I put some thought into it. I really don't want to cheat, so I agree that it's important that people play and rate the jam version. However, I fear that if the people have the choice, they will only play the jam version and not get the core principle of my game (the building of the airship). So I've chosen the following solution: The embeded version is still the post jam version, but I now clearly state that in the description. The first link below is now the jam version, so that people can play that too and rate the game.

Thanks for the comments!

Yeah the way they usually recommend doing it is kinda like that except the embedded is the jam and you can post at the top a link to the continued version. I think both are fine as long as it's explicit which link is what! And it's great that you're still working on it, I don't want to discourage that!
