I love the graphics and music, the style seemed to fit together nicely. Movement at times was a little difficult, a smaller hitbox for the player might have helped. There also didn't seem to be much of a difficulty curve, I got swarmed at the beginning and didn't have much time to learn the mechanics. Aside from that the game feels very polished, well done!"},{"author_name":"DragonGino","author_uid":"56933","time":"Aug 25, 2015 @ 5:31pm","epoch":1440523560,"text":"fun game to play.

You're ai is just smarter than me I guess! That's how good it was. This could be quite a good tactical game with extra weapons that you could use somehow. I like most that the treasure stays where it has moved to, so you could have a massive defence and then one guy manages to get through and carry it away a little bit, then the whole defence is screwed. That mechanic is really cool. Loved the retro music too :)"},{"author_name":"Lukbebalduke","author_uid":"26331","time":"Aug 25, 2015 @ 10:30pm","epoch":1440541500,"text":"Nice music, it was fun to play, I felt like the background disturb a little bit the gameplay, and the dart turrets are much stronger than mines. I also liked the sfx and the game style.\r<br\/>\r<br\/>Overall; good job =)"},{"author_name":"A Flat Miner Studios","author_uid":"42150","time":"Aug 25, 2015 @ 10:40pm","epoch":1440542100,"text":"Neat idea, super hard. Navigating the labyrinth to chase down guys was tough, which fit pretty well for the setting. (Also, if you want to have a stand-alone exe instead of an installer, you can choose it from the dropdown at the bottom of the window after you click &quot;Create executable&quot;. They are much preferred around here.)"},{"author_name":"Bocodillo","author_uid":"55271","time":"Aug 26, 2015 @ 1:21am","epoch":1440551760,"text":"Thanks for the quick pointer about standalone.

I think there should be a win condition though, because once you get all 70 resources you can just plant mines beside the remaining 3 treasure and do nothing will the enemies get slaughtered.

Anyway, the realization is solid. Only little problem is collision with wall often hinders movement. Oh, and white text on gray walls it hard to read; be careful next time.\r<br\/>\r<br\/>However I rated this entry rather high, there is something that bugs me I have trouble to explain clearly. While you have mechanisms (more than the average LD entries) they feel a bit odd. This sounds like a tower defense but without the clear one-path one-goal of a regular TD. While this is interesting to build a TD in a complex maze, if you have no clear goal, all the mechanisms you will add, as solid as they can be, will fall flat.\r<br\/>\r<br\/>Sorry for the long comment.\r<br\/>Anyway, overall very good LD entry."}],"images":["ld33\/55271-a10e2080ec7cc0b010de58f73e68041e.jpg","ld33\/55271-1f512ed93c668563113ec4c13df8307d.jpg"],"links":[{"url":"http:\/\/bocodillo.itch.io\/you-are-the-minotaur","text":"Windows"}],"metadata":{"g_key":"7907","g_author":"55271","g_event":"LD33","g_eventkey":"29","g_subevent":"JAM","g_urlkey":"7940","g_title":"You Are The Minotaur","g_status":"UCHK1","g_place":"786","g_commentcount":"16","g_site2_node_id":"0","g_hide":"N","g_has_icon":"Y","g_rqueue":"0","g_random":"0"},"nds":[],"node":null,"orig_images":["http:\/\/ludumdare.com\/compo\/wp-content\/compo2\/\/479518\/55271-shot0-1440449867.png-eq-900-500.jpg","http:\/\/ludumdare.com\/compo\/wp-content\/compo2\/\/479518\/55271-shot1-1440449867.png-eq-900-500.jpg"],"text":"Play as a minotaur defending his precious treasure (do minotaurs have treasure!?) and stop those stupid heroes from stealing it.\r\n\r\nWASD to move\r\nLeft Mouse to build a defence (mines on floors & dart turrets on walls)\r\nRight Mouse to sell a defence (full refunds!)\r\n\r\nOther instructions covered on start screen.\r\n\r\n-Beau","title":"You Are The Minotaur"}
