This game was made at the real live gathering at the spielmeister offices. Yes - that one with the free beer. \r\nA few notes:\r\n- Everything was made from scratch, no frameworks, no libraries, so pure javascript \/ html5.\r\n- it's the second time i'm participating in the ludum dare compo\r\n- Tested with the latest Firefox Browser, but should run in every HTML5 Browser\r\n\r\nAbout the game:\r\nYou are a huge, tentacle-faced monster that feels like destroying a little city. You have 70 seconds till the government will stop you with nukes. Destroy as many buildings as you can.\r\n\r\nControls:\r\nArrow-Keys to move\r\nx-Key to spit fire\r\nm-Key to mute the music\r\n\r\nCombo-Chain:\r\nIf your aiming for the Highscore you will have to keep that combo-chain alive. So always aim for the nearest buildings.\r\n\r\nMy Highscore: 74069, max combo: 126, try to beat that :)\r\n\r\nThanks for playing!<\/p>","title":"70 seconds left"}
