As I said, I wasn’t able to participate, but I was making a game anyway. The game appeared to be too complicated for time I had, so I didn’t finish it yet.<\/p>\n

The game title is “Groundshaker”. It’s a shooter-like game, but instead of shooting, there is throwing! (Of course, I didn’t know the theme) You throw a stone and it lands where you click. It also considers heigth of objects, so you can throw the stone above the wall if you throw properly.<\/p>\n

The ability system is also original. You can have up to 3 abilities at a time and you can use them at the same time. So if you use both “Big stone” and “Vertical throw” abilities, you both deal double damage and throw the stone very high (shown below). But is requires much more energy.<\/p>\n

And yes, this game is minimalistic. (Most graphics are placeholder)<\/p>","time":"August 30th, 2012 6:05 am","title":"Meanwhile\u2026"}
