Evolution Through Alchemy by D3zmodos
Yay my first ludum dare entry! (Turned out prettier than I first imagined...but very different in terms of gameplay).
My game is about the evolution of elements! You start out as Copper and get bigger and bigger until you are gold (and you win)! There's a long story that you can skip, in the menu if you want to read up about how this all came to be.
Controls (as seen in-game):
WASD to move
R to reload (this is important, remember to reload)
Left Mouse to shoot
Lastly I must mention 2 important things:
1)This is best played on the webplayer, the windows/mac standalone will work but the menu won't be centred and the images will be stretched...a lot (especially if you play fullscreen)
2) I must apologize and warn you of the music, at the start there is a bit of distortion which sounds bad and is the unfortunate result of the conversion from *.wav to *.ogg (which reduced the filesize from 8mb to +-350kb)
Have fun!

I also tried the windows version, and I like it! The reload button gets annoying after a bit though, having an auto reload might have been a good option? Otherwise really pretty, I'm a sucker for lights!
That's weird about the webplayer though, it works for me... anybody else's webplayer not working?
Also... nice arena shooter. Last level was a doozy for a while, but it's quick to restart which lessens the frustration factor. Sadly, can't give you many points on the use of theme.
Thanks to KhaoTom for solving the web player problem that prevented me from playing earlier.
