Cardumen by jotaSe

[raw]
made by jotaSe for LD29 (JAM)
Hi, we couldn't finish all the game because we lost a lot of time this weekend doing another things about our responsability, but this is the core of the game, you should control the "cardumen" (shoal) clicking the screen to avoid the predators, they choose the closest command, so you have to aware of this

We only add the penguins (there are a few more predators) because it's the simplest behavior, just moving to left or right, the other predators have more complex behavior, but they are not tested yet.

We didn't use any game engine, just a new (2 months early) javascript framework (http://www.pandajs.net/) and a AI library that I created a few weeks ago https://github.com/JotaSe/Panda.js-plugins.

I hope you enjoy it, Cheers.!

I liked the idea, cool implementation of a new framework as pandajs, the game is a bit ugly thought haha, I would have loved at least a little of audio.
Looking forward to your improved versions.

The idea is good, but the game needs better graphics, atmosfear and more mechanics, it's too simple, keep improving!

Couple of penguins got stuck on the border of the screen, but otherwise it was pretty cool!

Nice prototype. I'm not sure what the number on top are. They keep increasing when the penguin crash to the right wall.
