I had fun exploring the world you crafted. It has a very calming effect on me for some reason.\r\rI always wondered what it would be like if contestants simply got to pick from the top three themes for their game. It might solve a lot of issues people have. Glad you went with your theme of choice, it turned out excellent.\r\rMy only criticism was the view controls. It very well might just be me not used to controlling a game view with the mouse in that fashion, but I struggled with it. I of course have made games with controls that feel perfect to me, and then everyone says it's hard as hell to control. So yeah, it very well could be me, but maybe it needs some tweaking too.

It felt, somehow, like something in between Animal Crossing and Sonic Xtreme for this wide-angle\/globe camera thing. :P\r\rThe soundtrack is really something in the game, it's relaxing and soothing, while the SFX don't interfere too much with it, so it creates a nice experience. :3\r\rI struggled a bit with the controls, though, but nothing much, it was a pleasure to play! I had a bit of trouble, also, reaching high places, but it was a nice challenge to do it. :D\r\rThe story is also a good one and offers a lot of possibilities for challenges and expansion. I can see it, also, as a children's story book, don't know why, but it just felt like some books and stories I read when younger. :P\r\rGood Work! :3"}],"images":["ld33\/2297-92bc823e4b46f3d81e5f9f9f2e43cbce.jpg","ld33\/2297-6b175db86ca762b253c72517fa27395f.jpg","ld33\/2297-e16bf4db7369b1b83a3d9cd446fe4630.jpg","ld33\/2297-0e354bfba18ed6d003aeac0b80349227.jpg"],"links":[{"url":"http:\/\/mcfunkypants.com\/king\/","text":"Web"},{"url":"http:\/\/mcfunkypants.com\/king\/wolf-king-win.zip","text":"Windows"},{"url":"http:\/\/mcfunkypants.com\/king\/wolf-king-mac.zip","text":"OS\/X"},{"url":"http:\/\/mcfunkypants.com\/king\/wolf-king-linux.zip","text":"Linux"},{"url":"http:\/\/mcfunkypants.com\/king\/wolf-king-ld33-win.zip","text":"Original jam submission (buggy)"}],"metadata":{"g_key":"8390","g_author":"2297","g_event":"LD33","g_eventkey":"29","g_subevent":"JAM","g_urlkey":"8423","g_title":"A Bad Wolf King is Hard to Feed","g_status":"UCHK1","g_place":"130","g_commentcount":"69","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\/2297-shot0-1440463811.jpg-eq-900-500.jpg","http:\/\/ludumdare.com\/compo\/wp-content\/compo2\/\/479518\/2297-shot1-1440463811.jpg-eq-900-500.jpg","http:\/\/ludumdare.com\/compo\/wp-content\/compo2\/\/479518\/2297-shot2-1440463811.jpg-eq-900-500.jpg","http:\/\/ludumdare.com\/compo\/wp-content\/compo2\/\/479518\/2297-shot3-1440463811.jpg-eq-900-500.jpg"],"text":"Wolf King - a 3d platformer. Play here: http:\/\/mcfunkypants.com\/king\/\r\n\r\nMade by @mcfunkypants @sir_carma @fasterthanlime for Ludum Dare 33\r\n\r\nWelcome to a beautiful world in the skies. This is the world of our imagination, where you play as a peaceful shepherd tending your flock. You live in a small cabin among floating castle ruins in the sky. Explore the world, collect gold, find checkpoints, and have fun for no reason. This is a first playable MVP, not the finished game.\r\n\r\nGamepad is strongly recommended - using mouse and WASD is very tricky by comparison. Gamepad just feels right.\r\n\r\n================================\r\nDownloads:\r\n================================\r\n\r\nWindows:\r\nhttp:\/\/mcfunkypants.com\/king\/wolf-king-win.zip\r\n\r\nMac:\r\nhttp:\/\/mcfunkypants.com\/king\/wolf-king-mac.zip\r\n\r\nLinux:\r\nhttp:\/\/mcfunkypants.com\/king\/wolf-king-linux.zip\r\n\r\nWeb:\r\nhttp:\/\/mcfunkypants.com\/king\/\r\n\r\n================================\r\nTHE STORY SO FAR:\r\n================================\r\n\r\nYou are a king who became a NECROMANCER. In discovering the secret to everlasting life, you were faced with a heavy burden: to stay alive you need to harvest the lives of the innocent. Instead of becoming a bloodthirsty monster, friendless and feared by all, you took the higher road.\r\n\r\nUsing your magic powers, you sequestered yourself from normal society and build a land where the souls of wild sheep could be harvested without resorting to killing them yourself. By putting lush fields high atop the clouds, and allowing a natural predator, a wolf, the roam the landscape, you were able to keep yourself alive while allowing your \"victims\" to live in peace, like any wild animal. \r\n\r\n1000 years have passed, and the loneliness of your altruistic decision has taken its toll. The time has come to dismantle this utopia by collecting the golden soul crystals. Can you collect them all and bring your kingdom back down to earth?\r\n\r\n================================\r\nCOMING SOON:\r\n================================\r\n\r\nThere is no level two. Yet. We have a partially finished \"snow zone\" and \"boss battle\" that will be added in a post-jam release version. They explain the plot and provide a quest. Please consider this weekend-long jam edition to be the \"vertical slice\" demo of an upcoming game.\r\n\r\nIf you like what you see here, please let us know. If you think a full game that uses this engine and art style is something you'd like to see on steam, please let us know! It will fire up our motivation!\r\n\r\n================================\r\n\r\nYou could say that with this game I'm \"standing on the shoulders of giants\". I could never have made this game in one weekend from scratch all by myself.\r\n\r\nI am nothing without my art team.\r\n\r\nAntoine (@sir_carma) was both prolific, motivated, and incredibly flexible, and took my ugly sketches and turned them into a magnificent voxel universe full of wonder. You can enjoy much more Antoine's art at: http:\/\/imgur.com\/gallery\/3dOfh\u200b\r\n\r\nAmos (@fasterthanlime) has composed some of the most beautiful and inspiring music I've ever heard in a game jam, and the adventuresome, light and sunny vibe of the music is what inspired me to make a game much like Super Mario Galaxy, Ratchet and Clank, or the LEGO games by Traveler's Tales.\r\n\r\n================================\r\nDownload the soundtrack: \r\n================================\r\n\r\nAmos just released his first solo album entitled *andfall: https:\/\/amos.me\/blog\/2015\/andfall\/\r\n\r\nWhat an incredible experience the last few days have been. I am deeply indebted to my team, and I'm so grateful to have worked alongside them on this exiting project. Together we all pushed each other to become greater than the sum of our parts.\r\n\r\nI'm so proud of what we made. I love Ludum Dare.\r\n\r\nENJOY!\r\n\r\nChrister Kaitila\r\n\r\nhttp:\/\/twitter.com\/mcfunkypants\r\nhttp:\/\/mcfunkypants.com\r\n\r\n================================\r\nUPDATE, Aug 25, 10pm:\r\n================================\r\n\r\nThank you so much for all your wonderful feedback. It makes us so happy to see screenshots of people who found every single gold cube! =D I just uploaded a POST-JAM HOTFIX to address the camera bug, missing gui, and tightened up the friction\/gravity. \r\n\r\nNo new features have been added, only bugs fixed, so I suppose this hotfix is \"legal\" for judging, but I've left the original buggy version up for posterity and transparency. I think for the sake of the rankings in the jam portion of LDJAM you should rate the broken version. If you just want to play the game as intended, click the links below!\r\n\r\nThank you, and enjoy! =)","title":"A Bad Wolf King is Hard to Feed"}
