Attack of the Meef by KR-Eddie

[raw]
made by KR-Eddie for LD33 (COMPO)
Attack of the Meef

You are a Minotaur and you need sustenance! Gather meat and return to your cave.
One of the few reasons a Minotaur ever leaves his lair is to seek food. Those pesky humans that keep barging on your territory are the perfect prey!
But in the end, is this just a meaningless slaughter, or is all this killing justified?


Default controls:
Arrow Keys - Movement
Space Bar - Punch
Shift - Sprint

Escape - Exit (Desktop)

You can damage humans by punching them, sprinting on to them or pinning them to a wall.


Notes:
Web version seems to have problems with Firefox and IE. I recommend using Chrome.
On the embedded player, click the Refresh button if you can't get focus on the game.
Cow -> Beef; Minotaur -> Meef.

This is the best I've played yet (of 7 or so) which says something. I loved it! Even after I got the meat I went back just to explore. Great job!

Phew! Got lucky with going right and getting just the harmless people and not the ones with the pitchforks!

I like the graphics of the game as well as the sound. That's for sure!
I wish the bull had speels or skills with which you could destroy them harder but that would be just additional stuff.. DLC? :D
However, great game overall! Good Job!

This game was not very innovative, yet I felt like it's not a pattern that is being repeated all over since 20 years (*cough* CoD *cough*). It was fun to play, although it was to easy. I only lost 3 hearts during the entire gameplay. Theme interpretation was not bad, but there is a lot of games with a very similar interpretation. The graphics were ok, but were good enough to rate them 5/5. The music was fitting and nice, so were the sounds. There wasn't a lot of humor, but humor is not the purpose of LD. The music and graphics combined with the gameplay created a nice mood.

Great graphics and the controls felt very smooth! My only criticism is that the fighting is repetitive, it didn't matter if there was one unarmed guy or 20 pitchfork guys, the tactics of running in and punching are the same.

This game is AWESOME! I would actually play this as a full fledged game. Not super original, and if we are being pedantic the evilness is only skin deep. But that doesn't matter because it is super fun!

Very satisfying to play, the hits had great impact! It would have been nice if sprinting into someone stunned them so they couldn't attack you while you were charging, but the punching was great. Nice entry!

Backspace to reconfigure controls doesn't work in the web version. I think it is due to it being reserved by the browser or something?

Solid game. I was delighted when I found a flock of unarmed villagers. I am so evil. >:)

I like characters art style! But game needs more abilities or stuff to do - one button combat isn't fun for too long :)
