Fuseglow, Chapter 1: Tiny World

a choose your own adventure animated story
------------------------------------------------

I am happy to say I did everything myself in 48 hours including sleep. I wasn't able to get to creating music, but I think the art and story are highlights.


Thanks Ludum Dare, good luck to all who entered!

ZE GAMEN!

Interesting game - haven't played a visual text adventure in quite a while. Fun, and cool animated 8-bit-style art. The story was a little hard to follow. Nice work, though - lots of pieces for 48 hours.

Aww.. The web server seems to be struggling.

Screenshots of the problems:

Nevertheless, I refreshed through to the end. Pretty awesome. I think this was the most interesting story and for sure the most innovative platform so far this Ludum Dare. Nice job!

Neat - major nostalgia, reminded me of Sierra adventure titles and old games on the commodore 64.

I used to love this kind of game! Nice work, you obviously put a lot of time and care into this, and it shows. You should extend this into a full game and put it up on a website somewhere, if only to be able to say that you did it.

So it IS possible to enter Ludum Dare without any traditional programming experience! 5/5 for innovation! It was pretty fun too!

Enjoyed it! I used to read Choose Your Own Adventure stories as a kid.

Thanks for your thoughts, everyone. It has been an inspiring experience for me to say the least. I will consider developing this into a full length web game but i can't make any guarantees as I have my main focus already devoted to a game project in the foreseeable future.

Anyway, I love that anyone can make a game. In 48 hours. Keep being awesome Ludum Dare.

Interesting combination of choose your adventure with animations. The only thing I'd like to see is, obviously, more.
