The idea of switching vehicles is appealing, though I was disappointed when I saw that they basically behaved the same.  The UI was a bit hard to visually parse -- I had a lot of difficulty managing the zombie herd and moving to look where in the text block my life was represented.  So much so, that I eventually gave up.  I would have loved to seen what music you paired with the zombie-hot-air-baloon concept.  Overall, I enjoyed it there was something refreshing about the game -- with some UI-audio-mechanic touches this could be pretty rad."},{"author_name":"racarate","author_uid":"10426","time":"Apr 26, 2012 @ 6:46pm","epoch":1335465660,"text":"Oh man, I feel like a jackass.  I just realized the two alt-fire mechanics are indeed different.  This game rocks.  Also, love the small touches like the cloud parallax.  The animations on the airship crashing and the bird are great as well.  OH AND THE TURTLE, I'll play any game with a turtle in it.  Aesthetically, I just noticed that the particle effect is a little jarring with the nicely hand-drown graphics.  I don't know what is clashing, maybe the blur or antialiasing...

I haven't been able to test either, but hope they will work. \r\n\r\nTo run the game (these instructions are copied form love2d.org):\r\n\r\n-- MAC -----------------------------\r\nOn Mac OSX, a folder or .love file can be dropped onto the Love.app application bundle. On the Mac OSX Terminal (commandline), you can use love like this (assuming it's installed to the Applications directory):\r\n\r\nopen -n -a love \"\/home\/path\/to\/game\"\r\n\r\nIn some cases it may be faster to invoke the love binary inside the application bundle directly via the following:\r\n\r\n\/Applications\/love.app\/Contents\/MacOS\/love mygame\r\n\r\nYou can setup an alias in your Terminal session to call the binary when you use love by adding an alias to your ~\/.bash_profile (open -a TextEdit ~\/.bash_profile):\r\n\r\n# alias to love\r\nalias love=\"\/Applications\/love.app\/Contents\/MacOS\/love\"\r\nNow you can call love from the commandline like Linux and Windows:\r\n\r\nlove \"\/home\/path\/to\/game\"\r\n\r\nIf you debug using the print command, it is useful to see this printed in realtime. In which case the following will open an extra window that will show the printed text.\r\n\r\nxterm -e \/Applications\/love.app\/Contents\/MacOS\/love \"\/home\/path\/to\/game\"\r\n\r\n-- LINUX ------------------------\r\n\r\nOn Linux, you can use one of these command lines:\r\n\r\nlove \/home\/path\/to\/gamedir\/\r\nlove \/home\/path\/to\/packagedgame.love\r\nIf you have installed the .deb, you can double click on .love files in your file manager as well.\r\n\r\n----------------------------------\r\n\r\nRun in fullscreen mode:\r\n\r\nTo change tofullscreen to window mode: change love-file's ending to zip.
