The Capitalist's Curse by Ash Ketchup

[raw]
made by Ash Ketchup for LD 44 (JAM)

This is a game made by my father and I hope you enjoy. Due to constraints in our lives we didn’t put all the love we hoped to into the game, but we did everything we could. The game may not be the best nor look the best but I still hope you like it. And I hope you like watching a capitalist die due to his lust for money!

PSA: DON’T BUY SECOND ITEM IN SHOP, IT IS BROKEN AND I CANNOT FIX IT CURRENTLY... if I decide to continue with this and add levels and a story I will fix this and many other issues mentioned. Thanks for your time!

I think your itch page isn't set up right. It needs to be public

Can't see the itch.io page (but the title has me excited)

Also, you gave the wrong link. You should be using the Ludum Dare 44 Embed Link. You could find it in "Edit Game > Distribute (found in top bar) > Embed Game (found in sidebar) > Ludum Dare 44". Hope you can share it in a comment!

No apology necessary! Congrats on finishing a game! Good use of Robin Hood-esqueness for the theme!

@carlsonandpeeters yeah! That was my dads idea to make the characters that way, we would have had some dialogue, but sometimes you get preoccupied

You did a pretty good job. The building graphics look really nice and the animation works really well. I did discover a bug when trying to upgrade arrows (I've posted the stacktrace below). Overall, this game reminds me of when I used to make games in GameMaker 7.0 Pro! Even if it wasn't everything you wanted, you still got it done! Good work!

Might have @josh-mcmillan..... never got that issue when debugging... dang, I’m away from my pc so I can’t fix it. Just hope no one else does this.

Awesome job getting a game out for the jam! I encountered an issue where a couple of the enemies on the left side of the map seemed to go out of bounds and so I couldn't hit them with arrows. They could still move up and down but it was like there was an invisible wall there where they couldn't be hit or come closer to me. I liked your art work, keep making games!

Even if you didn't put everything in your game you wanted to, you still made it to the end of the jam with a product, so GREAT job!

It may not be well polished or finished, but at least you didn't give up like many others have! Congratulations on pulling through and putting what you did out there. I hope you learned something on your journey, because that's what Ludum Dare is for!

Concept is good and it fits the theme pretty well.

Maybe it lacks polish or balancements, but it's ok.

You'll learn how to better manage the scope and your time, and become a better developer at the same time.

My first jam entry was a total mess, on LD39! I learnt a lot from that.

Keep going bro, thanks for your work!

Haha, I upgraded myself to death. Congrats on finishing! I hit a few of the bugs mentioned when trying to upgrade.

Good concept, congrats on finishing! I did not immediately realize that this is an allusion to Robin Hood, and where are the capitalists, but this is a good idea. :) It would be nice if there were several text inserts with a story.
