Be THE Monster by eLLectron

[raw]
made by eLLectron for LD33 (JAM)
Hi everyone !
"Be THE Monster" is our fourth game made for a Ludum Dare :-) We made everything in the given three days.

Let me introduce my team :

-ArtRemix (@LeArtRemix)
He composed cool chiptunes with Milkytracker

-Ixous (@Ixous94)
He's the game designer and did some graphics (Photoshop)

-Olgret (@olgret38)
He drew some graphics too (Aseprite)

-Me (@YoPoxDEV)
I dealt with all the code (Atom.io / Chrome)

The goal of the game is to be THE monster, but how ?
First you can choose a monster by adding different parts, each monster have different stats and abilities.
Then you have to fight 3 monsters in the arena !
Good luck :-)

You will find the source on the GitHub repo !

Have a good time playing our game ☺

Ahah, loved the monster creation process. Would be really cool to have a better AI.

Monster creation was great, music was great. Controls felt a little swimmy once I was fighting. Nice job! :)

My monster Fline was THE monster. Cool that you had time to implement AI. Good job!

The monster creator is awesome, but the gameplay itself is a bit... lacking.

Lacks some mechanics in the area. Liked the character creation and graphics.

Great idea. Good variety of abilities to pick from. AI kind of gave up sometimes and kept running into a corner which made it really easy to kill, but otherwise pretty challenging.

You have really nice graphics and cool music. I tried out a few different monster combinations and like others have said, if the arena ai was a bit better the game could be awesome. When the enemy monsters weren't stuck in corners it was really cool =]

On Safari, I wasn't able to see any animations for the various attacks. For example, when the bomb exploded it would just flash and be gone. When I used the body shock ability, I didn't see any feedback, just a sound.

I thought this was interesting, but could have used a lot more polish to make the individual attacks feel better. The music was awesome, though, and the titlescreen really grabbed my attention.
