My idea for my entry is that you’re a mastermind who has just sucessfully kidnapped the boy king.  Which was a great plan.  Except that now there are horsemen and goats (and maybe a HERO) searching the darkness for you.  Do not get too close to the wandering searchers, or they will take you out.  You have no physical defenses beyond sneaking and hiding (you’re a mastermind after all, not a soldier).

I’ve made pretty good progress so far.  The game is playable and I’ve even got some really hobo graphics I scratched out myself.  I decided to do this one using Functional Reactive Programming with Elerea in Haskell.  I’ve been a Haskeller for over a year now, but had not really got into the whole FRP space yet, so this seemed like a good reason to do so, and I think it has worked out pretty well so far.

Progress, (and code if you want to play with stuff) on Github.
