Fear of the Snoo Snoo by Egan

[raw]
made by Egan for LD26 (COMPO)
A basic RTS game focusing on 4 core game design features but providing enough of a challenge that it requires quick thinking and a sense of humour.

Survive as along as possible in the hopes of having Snoo Snoo with a warrior tribe, the longer the better.

Simple controls with a lighting mechanic that requires the player to control two characters to survive.

This is an XNA title so it requires the framework and you can run the game from the Visual Studio file included. I should have published it as a .EXE file. My Misttake.

EDIT 1:

I have uploaded a new RAR file containing a .EXE and the XNA framework if people need it to install.

I have the framework installed, how do I run it? Magic wand? boiling water? love?

Running from source via visual studio worked for me

Yeah sorry it was late and I was tired so I forgot to write that in the Read Me.

Like Lizzip said if you run it from the source using Visual Studio it should work.

Thanks for even looking at it :)

There is a cool mechanic in here, but it feels like I'm spending a ton of time sitting around not doing anything. If this game were finished, it could be pretty awesome.

Yeah I admit there is some mechanics I needed to fix such as when the enemies attack, I had planned on them hunting you down but ran out of time.

I was aiming to make a game that you could never win, just to test see how long you can last for.

Thank you for playing the game :)

Not able to play a Windows based entry, so I can't rate this one.

I like the Snoo Snoo idea. :D
But I must admit that I wasn't quite sure what I was supposed to do in the game.

Feels a little incomplete but still a cool mechanic and considering the time constraints of 2 days I cannot really complain about that. Good job nonetheless! :)

"I was aiming to make a game that you could never win, just to test see how long you can last for." <-- I'm pretty sure that's the whole point of snoo-snoo.

Sadly, that was one very big download, then an install and uninstall... and no snoo-snoo to make up for it...

Maybe you can add some more instructions, because I have no idea what to to do. There is for both men a little space to wander and I can see stuff on the ground, I can pick it up, but does it do something?

At the moment it feels like there is nothing to do but run around?
