Tinymon by aligator
The idea was to create something like a very simple version of a well known Nintendo game.
But each player creates its own Tinymon and you can fight against the creatures of the other players!
I didn't get as far as I imagined, mostly due to the need of a extra server, so not much fancy effects etc... but hey, it is playable somehow :-)
Controls: 1. Click "New Creature" 2. Draw your creature (top left can be used to change the color) 3. Select a name and an Element 4. Start Playing (you may save the displayed code to continue later with the same Tinymon!) 5. WASD - There are always 5 enemy creatures (if possible - creatures, other players created) 6. Fight - there are some rules which Element-Creatures can better fight with which other Element-Creatures.

I really liked the idea of creating your own creatures and fighting other players' creatures! I don't understand how it works, but it's still fun and playable! 😄
Great job! 👍
My initial idea was that you wander around and randomly run into tinymons, when running through grass, (similar to pokemon).
But as I had no time left, it only spawns 5 tinymons in the near area... So currently there is no point in running far away.
It is cool to see the other player's creatures, and it gives you a bit of a communal feeling =)
The combat isn't all that fun, but a very cool idea overall!
