Surprise Cat Secks! by wilbefast

made by wilbefast for LD24 (COMPO)

"Surprise Cat Secks" is a sand-box cat secks game featuring cats, secks and deadly neurotoxins. Breed a new strain of super-resistant super-cat, or simply have fun killing kitties as fast as you can: the choices is yours'!

The game (more or less) models natural-selection in a population of hermaphrodite cats watched over by a skull-faced lunatic with a flame-thrower: each colour-channel represents a resistance. See if you can breed a pure-black (invulnerable) cat!

CONTROLS
The game works with or without a mouse
*/ WASD / ZQSD / Arrows = move.
*/ Mouse-move / Arrows = aim.
*/ Mouse-button / Space = fire.
*/ Mouse-wheel / Enter = change weapon.

The game works best on Chrome/Chromium. On Firefox it lags a little, and I haven't tested it on IE or Opera yet.

spot on evolution game. I think I did it! It was really cool to watch the herd of cats transition from all white, to multicolored, to all darkly colored. At first, I had to be careful from exterminating them, and later, I was spraying them with all weapons just to see if I could get them to die at all. Really cool.

Muhahaha DIE KITTENS DIE! Five stars for Theme on this one, for doing two themes at once :D

It's a bit hard to mix the colour channels in my head while KILLING KITTENS DIE KITTENS DIE DIE DIE but just spraying them with all I'd got worked pretty well.

However, I can see the cats, but I haven't seen a single seck. What does a seck look like anyway?

I've turned off audio pre-loading altogether (comment 3 lines) since the line "audio.addEventListener('canplaythrough', resourceLoaded);" doesn't seem to perform as it should on Firefox. The game should now load on Firefox.

Rather horrible premise :D Gameplay works and cast resistance is simulated, but nothing really comes after.

Ahah, silly use of the theme. Is there a bonus if we reach 1001 kills?

No but there should be ;) I'll add that to the post-compo version!

I liked the sound of dying kitties. There are some bugs that make it so that when I click it doesn't always shoot. Or maybe it is meant to be like that. Anyway I had fun killing premature kitties. And as Frozen Fractal said, where is the secks?? we want to see it.

Kittens seem to have inspired all of us :-D

Nice game. I liked how you had the choice to breed or kill them. Yes I killed them kitties.
Although in the end it stated to have 1 kitten left, but I could not see it anywhere. :(

Nice game though, was a lot of fun and good point on the theme.

After 1000 seconds and around 250 kills the closest I got to the black one is the one with #442075 hex colour. He was pretty resistant to deaths of all kind, just running away from my death squares! Controlling the population by killing the unwanted ones seems really hard, but it's so fun! :) I would like the gun to rotate faster, but other than that, it's a very good entry! :D
