Goth milk? by MetalFox Dioxymore
WE RECOMMEND YOU TO PLAY IN FULLSCREEN, OTHERWISE YOU WILL HAVE A CROPPED VERSION.
TL;DR
WASD/ZQSD/arrows to move
Mouse to look around, click (when you have a weapon)
You goal is to get some milk at the store. Follow the road.
Watch your heart rate : once it reaches 130, you have a panic attack, and must fight your hallucinations to calm yourself.
If you die, wait a few seconds and you will respawn.
The game saves your best times on a leaderboard (That's why we ask for a name), but looking the list is broken ^^'. Also, if the login popup doesn't disappear, type another nickame. Yeah, first time doing this leaderboard thing.
Goth milk? A game by Spicy Frog
I just told my psychiatrist about THEM.
[You shouldn't have done that]
He said I'm "psychologically unstable".
[It means you're crazy]
I'm thirsty, but THEY are watching.
[We are waiting for you]
I want some milk
[Your heart beats faster and faster]
I'm scared, but too thirsty
[When you see us, attack with mouse click or die]
Your life in a wonderful [cursed] world !
You, a simple and normal person [psychologically unstable], must fetch some milk at the store. That's the rules of the game, it's as simple as that !
Use WASD/ZQSD/Arrows to move, and use your mouse to look at the beautiful landscape this top-down world as to offer [Watch your heart rate : if you panic too much, you will see the truth]
Keep a deep breath and relax with our wonderful activities [Click to attack when you're in the real world].
Have a walk in [hell] the parc, meet the [demons] inhabitants and visit the city [yourecursedyourecursedyourecursedyourecursedyourecursedyourecursedyourecursedyourecursedyourecursedyourecursedyourecursedyourecursed]
Note : the leaderboard save your times, but for some reason, it's not displaying properly in the build version. We will fix it as soon as possible (with a proper warning saying that it's an updated version, but it won't affect the gameplay)

Nice style and sound design
Keep it up!
Neat concept, if a little edgy... bonus points for the dynamic music :)
Found the Milk though so everything is fine.
The game is missing a few finishing touches but overall great entry. Keep it up.
@transylvanian-blacksmiths Yeah, I admit the level design have been a bit rushed at the end... It's something we really need to improve on, I totally agree with you !
@skallywags We wanted to add a little indicator on the screen, but we unfortunally didn't have time ^^'.
@brusnika Yeah, they teleport when they cannot reach you by going on a straight line, and another spawn every 5 seconds =p. We really wanted to avoid "just rushing" strategies, so you need to kill before getting overwhelmed ^^
@zsharpfire We wanted to have more demon types (even a bossfight) and other weapons, but we didn't have time ^^'... Fun fact : the second type of deamon (the one that throws fireballs) was added 3 hours before the deadline xD !
@ivysly Congratulations for getting the milk =p ! And I'm glad you envoyed the music !
@bentebent Yeah, I agree that the level design have been rushed in the end, and we didn't have time to add indicators. But I'm really happy you enjoyed the story-telling !
@cedric86 I'm glad you liked it, and congratulations for having a nice bottle of milk =) ! If you try to rush too much, you can be overwhelmed and the game gets really hard ^^. The intented strategy is to find an isolated place when your heart rate is near 130, so you have less demons to fight at once ^^. But we also didn't want the deathes to be too punishing and frustrating, so the player just respawns a couple of seconds after dying =).
You have a solid engine here for a bigger project! Well done!
Cheers! [-LB](https://ldjam.com/users/the-lame-brain/)
