This is certainly an out there entry. It works fine though and seems polished enough for a 48 hour game creation. It did seem though that I didn't have to do much other than just sweep the levels as the Dogtopians basically threw themselves at the oil without any clever movements from me. I only managed to get to level 2, but I imagine on the higher levels with 50 dogtopians it's probably like dogtopian genocide with waves of them suiciding into the oil."},{"author_name":"Suese","author_uid":"8361","time":"Apr 20, 2015 @ 3:02am","epoch":1429498620,"text":"Windows 7 - I just get music.
