While True Do by Phobos001

[raw]
made by Phobos001 for LD 39 (JAM)

I have NEVER made a game like this before, but I'm very proud of finishing it! It's not all I wanted it to be but it's still a tangible thing.

Played it again and trying to formulate a sane response:

The game kept me interested so that's awesome. The graphics are good, the cut-scenes are awesome, the blood everywhere is pretty cool, the punch/kick/whatever is pretty strong (you bet he don't skip leg day). Not too sure I understand the message completely, not sure what 888 means. Also the text at the end (credits) gets cut off to the left for me.

Solid entry, kept me interested, probably will do something similarly crazy next ludum dare now that I think about it.

I downloaded your game, and I planned fully on give you a more substantial comment than the one above me.

But that guy nailed it. His comment is perfect.

I hope you win Ludum Dare.

Do yourself a favor (if you want) and quote me on your game description somewhere. PEOPLE NEED TO PLAY THIS GAME, AND THEY NEED TO REALIZE THAT IT'S NOT WHAT IT SEEMS TO BE. POWER THROUGH.

Oh yeah baby! Ok, you really got a laugh out of me.

The obsession of a developer doesn't always lead to greatness. In this case... man it sure did.

honestly, I have no idea what happened but it was a wild ride. I feel like you achieved what you set out to.

Wow! Just wow! This was either way too deep for me to understand or the work of a complete madman. Either way, it was truly great. Your long experience on LD really shines through.

Awesome programmer art. Loved it. The texts on the end of phase one were too quick and hard to read but maybe it was your intention. The bar overfilling was a brilliant touch.

Just had to go for a second run. Was kinda disappointed that your actions really have no meaning. It seems to always go the same way no matter what you do.

Good job!

This was...weird. Also fun. Also weird. Oh, I said that before. Well, it was weird. :)

At the beginning, I had freaking no idea, what's going on, then suddenly the game become one hell for my ears, and then it became total wtf? I still somehow enjoyed it. May not use headphones next time. :)

Also ascended into coding guru while playing this game, so can recommend. :)

Also it's weird. ;)

At first I was like, "What is this?" Then I was like "WHAT IS THIS!?"

Really nice work. I love this kind of thing. I'm not sure if I understand it, but I'm also not sure if that really matters. It doesn't feel "weird for the sake of weird." It feels like there's some direction to it.

Love the graphics and audio too. Really fantastic entry all round.
