Zelnick by ianh

[raw]
made by ianh for LD16 (COMPO)
This is a game about finding a new home. It's very hard to win (you'll need a lot of luck). I hope you like it anyway.

The game itself is written using the html5 canvas element with some javascript. You'll need a modern web browser to play it (no IE, sorry). sfxr made the few sound effects that there are, and I used Adobe Illustrator to draw all the graphics.

EDIT: if you're getting a white frame, could you go to the following URL and post what browser version and platform you're using?
