Space Monster, Represent! by commanderstitch

[raw]
made by commanderstitch for LD33 (COMPO)
This was fun to do. Turned out pretty good.

you are a monster visiting from another place. You are to collect/eat people and send them back. Simply gather them and send them to your home by standing on the blue thingy in the cave and you'll send anyone you've collected back through the beam.

Tips:
don't die.
you can hide from the troops in the bushes if you need to.
collecting redshirted people gives you health.
avoid bullets.

EXIT RIGHT when in the starting cave! xD (thanks, DaanVanYperen)

known things:
when you go from the cave to the forest the camera will pan slowly over to you. You can still move so no need to be worried.

Thank you floatvoid, Kyle pulver, holymoo, fruckert, and fatesauce for your help in the otter slack. <3

Like the monster animation and the canopy opening up!

Tip for new players: exit the first screen to the right.

After I'd been back to the cave a couple of times (and kidnapped about 150 of the people) I went back outside and it was just teeming with green guys. I died pretty quickly (and then the game over screen said sorry, you only got 744 of 500... wait, what?).

Awwww, this was amazing. I didn't find any purpose or challenge, though. But still, as a sandbox, this game is good. The player animation is great, but the best part of this game is "Aaaa" sound.

Cools entry although graphics were bit confusing (not enough contrast between elements I guess). I also had to read the description to know I was supposed to exit to the right.

The monster animation is really well made and the "AAA" SFX is my favorite thing in the world right now, haha.

Despite lacking some polish, this entry was sweet and fun to play. A bit too short though!
