Monster Mash! by grotewold

[raw]
made by grotewold for LD33 (JAM)
**NOTE: YOU DO NOT NEED TO FILL THE METER TO 100 TO RELEASE YOUR SCARE**

Button mash to get fill the meter the best you can, then press spacebar to scare the bajebuses out the of sleeper.

Get your highest score over three rounds and post it to the comments.

Work interrupted my development process, so this was not much added past Saturday @ noon. Expect some crude edges, mechanics and animations.

The actual scare is the best part. I just wish I didn't need to work so hard for it. Quick and fun, though.

Wow so fun. Really simple game. I wish I could start with something simple like this. I didn't realize I had to press space bar. But then... I read the instructions. The scare effect is very entertaining

8829. I was afraid that I will break my keyboard. It's a very simple idea. Yes. It's very simple. It's too simple for 3 days.

Neat idea, but the keyboard mashing itself isn't all that fun. Could potentially be a bit of fun if there was something like small minigames instead, which gave you more meter the faster you did them. Graphics were pretty funny if a bit basic (I think they fit pretty well), and both the music and the scare sound felt like they worked well.

I really liked your game concept! It's very entertainning game - but it's hard to get the scary bar at 100%, and its slows down really fast! But overall, its a great project! nice done
