I managed another dark LD entry. Go on a shooting rampage – blame the theme I’m afraid. I like to use LD to explore unusual themes, game mechanics, and ideas.<\/p>\n

I was drawn to the idea of some interesting game mechanics. Innocent people are worth more points than police, although police can shoot at you and deal health damage.<\/p>\n

I was also intrigued by the idea of a “Suicide Bonus”. If you die from wounds, you get no Suicide Bonus. If you suicide, you get a bonus based on your current health. But of course, if you suicide, you can no longer score points. So… when to suicide?<\/p>\n

And then the Newtown tragedy happened, and made me feel sad and uncomfortable. RIP.<\/p>\n
