This was my first Game Jam ever! I decided to make a game that uses the Chess board game as a visual environment. The game features my own original song and voice clips, as well as all of the programming, animation, 3D modeling and anything else you can see or hear in the game.

HAIL TO THE KING!

HOW TO PLAY

Sacrifice your loyal minions to help clear a safe passage for The King. Take control of any chess piece by clicking on it. Use Escape to release the piece and select another. Use Arrows or WASD to move pieces around the board.

Gain points by moving the King across the board.

• Rooks: 500 pts
• Queen: 900 pts

Giant Blobs From Mars is my 3rd Ludum Dare game jam entry. I wasn't able to finish everything on my list, but am still very proud of what I managed to complete within the 72 hour time constraint. I spent the following days playing tons of other developer's games and after a long weekend of hard work and determination, I finally got a full night's rest and a nutritious meal.

Now that's it's over, I thought I'd post a blog to let everyone know about my entry. Hope you will enjoy!
