Putting all pieces together now… Video shows a gameplay test, people should run away when you (the monster) are closing in on them, Vidar is working on that right now :). You play a kind but slightly retarded monster. You really want to hug everone you see. The problem is that you are a monster and people tend to run away from you. You need to sneak up on them to be able to hug them. Unfortunately you always hug to hard and crushes them. You get really sad for a moment, until you spot another human too hug.

HUGS

Our (Vidar Nelson, Mikael Hällström and Mattias Granat) game HUGS is submitted!

The game works and is fun (at least we think so). There are some big parts we really wanted to be able to squeeze in but did not had the time to do it, as probably everybody else participating in LD ;). One important part was the policeman that was supposed to try to locate and shot the monster (you). That would have spiced up the game a lot. Another thing we wanted was some strategic sneaking and setting traps by moving furniture and such to block pathways, to be able to hug especially tricky and speedy humans. Hopefully we can amend that later on.

We had a great time making Hugs and it will be very interesting to hear what you guys think of it.

In Hugs you play a kind but slightly retarded monster. You really want to hug everone you see. The problem is that you are a monster and people tend to run away from you. You need to sneak up on them to be able to hug them. Unfortunately you always hug too hard and crush them. You get really sad for a moment, until you spot another human!

We are pleased with our result but at the same time it’s really annoying that we did not have the time to implement policemen that were supposed to try to locate and shoot the monster (you). That would have spiced up the game a lot. Another thing we wanted was some strategic sneaking and setting traps by moving furniture and such to block pathways, to be able to hug especially tricky and speedy humans.
