Yeah it feels more like an outline for a game at the moment. And the 'werewolf' game was something I had in mind, though it would need much more of an AI to work in the same way. But perhaps it's not a bad way to expand on the gameplay, to have more than one culprit. I'll brainstorm a bit I think. And feel free to do the same here! :)"},{"author_name":"Thermite","author_uid":"27791","time":"Aug 27, 2013 @ 10:29pm","epoch":1377642240,"text":"Lovely looking game with a great atmosphere.

Every ten seconds, the killer chooses another victim from a set of simple rules:\r\n\r\n- Always kill one of the weakest members.\r\n- If among the weakest members, panic, and kill one of the strongest.\r\n\r\nThere are three creatures, descending in strength: the Hyena-headed Furies, The Stags, and the weakest Cherubim.\r\n\r\nControls:\r\n- WASD + mouse\r\n- Click to accuse a creature\r\n- E or Space advances text\r\n- Backspace restarts the game\r\n- Escape to free the mouse from the webplayer (as normal)\r\n\r\nNotes:\r\nI'm entering the jam instead of the compo because I ran out of time. I spent too much time on sound, graphics etc., but I'm rather happy with the result. The mood and style is pretty much the way I wanted it to be.\r\n\r\nThe graphics are made from scanned in drawings and most textures are simply high-contrast scans of paper. Most sounds (except the tick-tock) are made by me.\r\n\r\nI haven't tested the Windows version in a whole lot of resolutions, so especially the text may look a little weird in some cases. Use the webplayer if you can.\r\n\r\nI may upload a post-jam version with better rules for the killer, as it stands now you can't be sure to play a perfect game (i.e. letting the exact number of creatures die needed to know who the killer is).\r\n\r\nPlease share any comments, criticisms or bugs below :)","title":"Like a Lamb"}
