This is my second Ludum Dare attempt and I’ve really enjoyed making Growing Gertrude. I hope you enjoy playing it!<\/p>\n

You are Gertrude the amoeba. Eat those smaller than you to grow until you are large enough to take on Peanut the Octopus and steal her treasure.<\/p>\n

Use the WASD keys to move Gertrude.\u00a0You’ll need 4 of each creature to grow enough to eat the next.<\/p>\n

Play and rate it here<\/a>.<\/p>\n

\"Growing<\/p>\n

I added bubbles at the end to make it look more like an underwater scene, and would like to add some seaweed later. If I had more time, I’d also add levels of difficulty and improve the animations.<\/p>","time":"December 14th, 2015 8:00 pm","title":"Growing Gertrude!"}
