LUDUM DARODIUS
---------------------------------------------

Chicky is around again! But also, THERE ARE JUST TOO MANY **** (I can't even say it...)

LEAVE ME ALONE! is what Chicky thinks. Luckily, the newest version of his plane has a gun!

SPACE to fly, ARROW KEYS allow Chicky to shoot. Or, if you get tired from shooting, press A to turn autofire on/off (it's slower than you can shoot, though)

Automatic saving

Oh yeah, there's a kitten hidden. If you can find it, you can keep it ^^
EDIT: yeah yeah, you can't call it hidden if there's a screenshot. But I added it so you won't give up midway

Have fun everyone!

Nice variety in enemies. The controls take a while to get used to and it gets quite hard after a while (or maybe I'm just not very good) but is good fun.

Loved it, but what is relevant to "alone" in it?

It's not loading for me, can you embed it in a website page or upload it to something like mediafire or dropbox instead please? This game looks good

yes, you can just call the webpage itself
https://sites.google.com/site/pythong4ld/ld22

there you should be able to see Alone.swf as download-link or the redirect to the swf. After downloading, open it with a flash player or the browser of your choice (as long as it has a flash player >= 9 I think)

and yeah, it's not really 'alone', I went with the kitten challenge ;). It's rather a 'leave me alone'

Brilliant work; A great way to get my weekly cat killing quota without having to go searching around the streets all night. :)
In case you weren't aware, the damage doesn't seem to affect your life bar, but it didn't seem to make much difference as it was a fairly laid back experience.
The parallax scrolling penises in the background looked great, and all of the sprites had a lot of character.
High marks all round.

I like killing cats, at least. Fun artwork and good control alternatives. BUT THE THEME MAN, THE THEME! lol Yeah I already saw your comment on the theme and how you struggled with it at first. That always sucks.

Nice game! One of the few games that features a cool boss battle. The graphics are good and I liked the background music too, although I missed some soundeffects for hits etc, but I see you already mentioned this in your journal. Also, the life bar is hard to read on my monitor.

The flying controls can be kind of annoying when you're trying to dodge stuff precisely, but they're not too bad. Fantastic graphics! I liked the music, but I really wish the game had some sound effects. All in all, a good job.
