You play as Dan Danman, a disgruntled farmer attempting to defend his farm from an alien invasion. You must
shoot aliens to protect yourself and your farm. The aliens will drop some weapons and food they have stolen
from other humans, which you can collect. Weapons will give you the weapon and a clip worth of ammo. Food
will give you health back and will increase your max health, but beware, as eating too much food can make
you gain weight and become slower. Luckily, Dan Danman's metabolism is REALLY fast, and he can lose the weight
he gained after just a small distance of walking. However, if you decide to eat more food during the walk, you
will need to walk farther. Now, go defend your farm from those aliens, and most importantly, have fun!!
Anyway i think that is a really nice twist, at first i thought it was kinda generic but when i noticed the influence of food i thought that gave it nice variety :)
People are fat because they shot way too many aliens while defending their farmm
People can get so fat that they can barely walk
Aliens are made of pizza and donuts
Anyway, great game, I miss sound or at least background ambiance/music and the theme of this LD made your gameplay very hard to play since the "more you have the worse it is" part of your game cannot be fought... can it?
EDIT: I take back what I said about fighting weight - I just got so fat I could not lose weight efficiently anymore :D
EDIT2: Remove the option to rate audio of your game if you can :)
I unfortunately got bored very quickly with the game (sorry :slight_frown:), and I didn't see how the weight of the character was acting on my controls (maybe because I was always moving and shooting, or did not see how to get fat... Kind of a life goal I guess :stuck_out_tongue:).
Great work nonetheless !
Nice usage of the theme, I just wished there was some sounds in this game, but now worries :)
Good job! :)
The concept of getting fatter and slower as you eat is very interesting: basically, there is trade-of in taking power ups :-)
Oh, and nice graphics!
