There's a link below!\r\n\r\nHello, this is our first Ludum Dare event!\r\n\r\nOut of the Sea is a quirky, random game that makes somewhat less sense than it appears at first, if that's possible. It might make you giggle uncontrollably. Or not. In any case we had a ton of fun making this and hope you all enjoy it!\r\n\r\nThis game was made with [AutoHotkey](http:\/\/autohotkey.com)!  It's an awesome language for scripting, automation, and apparently, building games! You'll need it, too, if you're going to try out the game from the source code. Specifically, get AutoHotkey_L.\r\n\r\nSpeaking of the source, I'd recommend protective eyewear before gazing upon it. It's quite messy and might be giving off low levels of radiation. Please see a doctor if symptoms persist.<\/p>","title":"Out of the Sea"}
