Each correct digit has a higher pitch sound than the incorrect ones, so once you have found the higher pitch sound move to the next digit and repeat.\r<br\/>\r<br\/>And I agree that I should've increased the time given for the minigames, but thats quite hard to balance without proper user-testing :)"},{"author_name":"jamesca","author_uid":"18863","time":"Dec 19, 2012 @ 11:33pm","epoch":1355959680,"text":"No mac version, gahh can't play it :-("},{"author_name":"h.attila","author_uid":"8403","time":"Dec 20, 2012 @ 10:06pm","epoch":1356040860,"text":"Good idea, a bit too hard, I think."},{"author_name":"rinaka","author_uid":"16242","time":"Dec 26, 2012 @ 11:13am","epoch":1356520080,"text":"Interesting game fitting the theme. The mini-games match the activities well (which isn't always the case) and the bits of humor are nice.\r<br\/>\r<br\/>The safe and hack mini-games were too hard for my poor reflexes. That, however, highlights your decision to add a time-independent mini-game that works as an alternative too."},{"author_name":"zenmumbler","author_uid":"17143","time":"Jan 3, 2013 @ 1:49pm","epoch":1357220640,"text":"I only got the 3 games through luck of their randomness as the timers are insane."}],"images":["ld25\/5300-70585db5be9ccb81b0d38c5c1993507b.jpg","ld25\/5300-37b196e3a8840c5a750a4b04886f323f.jpg"],"links":[{"url":"http:\/\/146.255.37.150\/puffi\/random\/SinisterSimonWindows.zip","text":"Windows"},{"url":"http:\/\/146.255.37.150\/puffi\/random\/SinisterSimonLinux.tar.gz","text":"Linux"},{"url":"http:\/\/146.255.37.150\/puffi\/random\/SinisterSimonSource.tar.gz","text":"Source"}],"metadata":{"g_key":"27969","g_author":"5300","g_event":"LD25","g_eventkey":"14","g_subevent":"COMPO","g_urlkey":"27999","g_title":"Sinister Simon","g_status":"UCHK1","g_place":"593","g_commentcount":"8","g_site2_node_id":"0","g_hide":"N","g_has_icon":"Y","g_rqueue":"0","g_random":"0"},"nds":[],"node":null,"orig_images":["http:\/\/ludumdare.com\/compo\/wp-content\/compo2\/\/201083\/5300-shot0.png-eq-900-500.jpg","http:\/\/ludumdare.com\/compo\/wp-content\/compo2\/\/201083\/5300-shot1.png-eq-900-500.jpg"],"text":"Sinister Simon is a little game where you play as a crook called Simon and help him gather enough money to realize his dream trough some very sinister activities.\r\n\r\nI wasn't expecting this theme and had 0 ideas for it when it was revealed, so I decided to do very simple design upon which I could expand if there were time.\r\n\r\nThe game contains 3 mini-games all of which contribute money towards the goal. Failing to complete a minigame will start the game all over again (NES flashback).\r\n\r\nThe minigames are:\r\n Bank Robbery - open a vault before cops show up\r\n Hack a Mac - gather sensitive data from a mac for blackmail\r\n Creditcard Fraud - use someone elses' credit card for money\r\n\r\n\r\nI'm not entirely satisfied with the game, but atleast I got something finished :)\r\n\r\nThank you all for making this event so cool!<\/p>","title":"Sinister Simon"}
