I would've loved to see how companion powers worked out.\r<br\/>\r<br\/>A small suggestion on the colour choices, though. A slightly darker green or grey on the sword. It wasn't until I hit the game border on the right that I saw the character was actually tossing a sword around in his sprite animation :)\r<br\/>\r<br\/>Finish it up, could be a nice little game with another few days of work."},{"author_name":"Luthwyhn","author_uid":"3911","time":"May 7, 2011 @ 10:46pm","epoch":1304808060,"text":"Sorry for the delay in getting a compiled version out, everyone!  It'll unfortunately still be another couple of days :(  I actually just moved to a new house this past week and don't have internet set up at the new place yet :(  Hopefully by Tuesday\/Wednesday.\r<br\/>I'm hoping, once the move nonsense is done, to go ahead and finish what I had planned for the game, in case anyone's interested.

I didn't quite finish!  And I'm out of time! Well... Here it is nonetheless!  My first ever LD entry:  \r\n\r\nDon't Go Alone.\r\n\r\nThe idea is that you're playing a horizontal shooter, and your power ups (which were 80% implemented at time of submission and are therefore, sadly, disabled) are people you meet along the way, who follow behind you and fight along-side you.\r\n\r\nI didn't get the Boss working correct either :( - It's a Dodongo.  They dislike smoke.\r\n\r\nCoded in Python and Pygames.  I've never coded in Python before, so that adds to the amazingness of this entry for sure.\r\n\r\nArt:  MS Paint and occasional Gimp\r\nMusic:  CodeMonkey's little script thing\r\nSfx: Bfxr\r\n\r\nENJOY!~<3<\/p>","title":"Don't Go Alone"}
