I decided to join the compo, even though it is a bit late. Here’s what I’ve whipped up in 6hrs via GM8.1. Basic engine, graphics (my specialty), sound effects (but they are conflicting and killing BGM ???), and a coolio background music. Now to make the intro so you know why Boingo the sheep is escaping. If it isn’t already obvious from the wolf chasing him… 😉

Boingo's Escape Preview

More to come! 😀

Yes folks, in under 26hrs… actually < 16hrs (because I had sleep during this period) I was able to complete the challenge using GM 8.1 Light [gack]. All content in the game is original and done by me except for the sound effects and background music which are under a free license. It’s more or less a side-scroller with a few platfomer-ish features.

The storyline is about a cute little sheep called “Boingo” who jumped the fence and decided to wander out on his own, unknowingly falling into the trap of evil wolves waiting outside. In order to get free, he has to escape wolves, birds,  and various obstacles. Featuring 5 levels with lush graphics! The entire work is released under Creative Commons 3.0 Unported. Art will be posted to OpenGameArt shortly so others can benefit from my work. I’ll also make a mention of it over at my website.

You’ll need 7zip (who doesn’t have this now-a-day?) to open the file. My internet is dog slow, compression is a must. 😛

Enjoy! 😀
