I\u2019ll let the gif below introduce you to my game <img alt=\":D\" class=\"wp-smiley\" src=\"http:\/\/ludumdare.com\/compo\/wp-includes\/images\/smilies\/icon_biggrin.gif\"\/><\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/www.ludumdare.com\/compo\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/04\/krakenSmall.gif\"><img alt=\"krakenSmall\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-346370\" height=\"433\" src=\"http:\/\/www.ludumdare.com\/compo\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/04\/krakenSmall.gif\" width=\"715\"\/><\/a><\/p>\n<p>\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>Now some context. You play as the Kraken and some bastard pirates are trying to steal treasure of your island. With your tentacle (ragdoll physics) you have to smash them out the water. The physics are a little off and need work, but already it\u2019s a lot of fun as it\u2019s so unpredictable. If the pirates get away with the treasure you loose.<\/p>\n<p>There\u2019s lots of room for me to take this so im VERY excited: i think it would be perfect for touch screen gaming. Lots more to do, but the premise and main physics are there. Now to add gameplay and polish.
