Too Big For This World by Hallway
My first attempt at Ludum Dare. I spent too much time fixing my engine so the game is kind of basic, there are no levels it is just a go as far as you can (distance tracked in top right). Difficulty increases as you get further.
Instead of a tiny planet, its a world where everything is tiny. The tiny inhabitants of the planet (apart from some allies) try to kill you because they think you (being normal sized) are a monster.
If you dont have .NET or XNA the exe version wont work. Either use the installer version or download them here:

.Net - http://www.microsoft.com/download/en/details.aspx?displaylang=en&id=17113
Thank you for checking out my game and I hope it was worth it.

Meedoc: Ya, I was never sure if health regen was helpful to the game or not.
Sodaware: I agree, I had planned to add grass or trees to the background to give a better sense of movement, ran short on time though.
A little limited but enjoyable nonetheless.
Nice work!
I thought having the friendly rocket launcher guys worked really well. The best strategy I found was to use them to take out the other rocket launcher guys and use the spaceman to destroy the blimps and tanks (if you tried to jump on the rocket launcher guys you would get hurt by the sword guys and if you ran at them you would get shot, so best to just go back and let the green guys do the work :)).
I managed to get over 17000 feet :)
Jerm: That is the strategy I tend to use if there are more than a few of the rocket guys, I think my highest was about 28k.
I created a timelapse video in case anyone is interested.

When hundreds of people make non-browser games, that means that, to play all of the entries, I would need to download hundreds of games to my computer. I typically use OS X, so Windows-only entries are particularly inconvenient.
Please consider making a browser game next time.
