Life-Cycle of the Great Asp Turtle by Ashera
Update Monday Apr 26: I fixed the collision handling. You don't get stuck on islands anymore, but you might bounce violently off them. It's at http://selenetan.com/dump/ludumdare17/201004262336 .
This is a game about being an Aspidochelone ( http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Aspidochelone ), or Asp-Turtle. Swim around and eat fish to get bigger. Ram ships when they're smaller than you to get the stuff inside. If you're big enough (there will be a peach square on your back), you can pick up people who will shoot ships for you.
It's not very complete. With about 18 hours to go, I tossed out flixel and decided to write my own game framework and physics engine from scratch.
Edit: Whoa my entry disappeared, even though the screenshots remained... Weird!
