Unfortunately, his house is at the 8th world, and his job was to guard the very start of the first level of the first world.\r\n\r\nAs you are going back home, you start to collect the gold that the Great Overlord left up for the Hero. What a non-sense, you think, why should the Great Overlord leave money to his greatest enemy?\r\n\r\nGameplay\r\n\r\nIt is a simple platformer. Left Right, Up\/Space, and Down keys to control the monster. Do not jump on other monsters! They will kill you. Also, monsters don't like to take baths.\r\n\r\nA little context about the game development:\r\n\r\nY U so serious? is a game should remind every-one that the ludum dare is about having fun. And boy, I had a lot of fun doing this game.\r\n\r\nIf you wonder why some pictures looks like like children drawings: my four years old came up and asked me \"what are you doing daddy?\". After explaining that I was making a video-game for a contest on the internet, she asked if she could be of any help. \"Sure\" I answered, \"The theme is about being a monster. I need you to draw monsters pictures, and I'll put them in the game\".\r\n\r\nNot only did she the monsters pictures, but also did she the gold, the heart and the main title logo. She also made all sounds of the game (yeah even the monster cry, but I can thank audacity for changing the tone of the sound).\r\n\r\nFuture post-jam:\r\n\r\nMore level features, more levels, and code clean-up (it's a mess :D).","title":"Y U so Serious ?"}
