December 14th-17th 2012 :: Theme: You are the Villain
Ran out of time again. Should really spend less time prevaricating.
Hunt is a turn based strategy game where you must send your evil minions to hunt down and kill all those pointless peasants and irritating heroes.
You were supposed to gain life energy from killing to summon more minions, but that didn't happen.
Just kill everyone. That always works.
Dont know if it is actually possible to win.
Oh - forgot to add the 'End turn' button.
Press E to end your turn
Press Space to cycle through units

I have a deep sentiment for tactical games (mostly because of X-COM), so I really enjoyed this one. There are a few bugs and the game lacks whatever statistics or ui one would expect. Also, the music is way to silent (had to turn my speakers almost to the max). But still, overall it is quite enjoyable.
Cool! Looks to be very solid made and it was fun even though it's not very unique.
HA that's awesome! Really nice gameplay. For a first level I'd recommend having the enemies start closer so combat can be triggered after only 1 move. Would be more rewarding faster.
Great entry!
Tangential comment: Cheers for teaching me the word "prevaricating" :D
I'm amazed you got this much done in 48 hours. The graphics are really good but caused some problems. It's very difficult to select a tile behind another character.
I don't know whether some classes are more powerful than others or are better at attacking other classes. It would need explaining if there was.
I managed to almost kill all of them. Two were left at full health and two were running away from being almost dead.
Could also do with better audio to tie the game together, but very impressive!
Didn't feel like the different units were any different from one another.
Graphics and music are pretty good.
Nice but I was hoping that all units arenot same in way it attacks and other stuffs :)
Enjoyable game. Would be nice if you could group units into squads of the same creature type and move them in one go.
plays all right but gets dull quickly. the units all seem the same, but wearing different costumes.
Neat setup - need to know something about how the units work though before you can make any useful decisions.
very good, but i personally think if you had a limit of how many you could move a round would make it better.
Really nice. Screen flow into fighting between the two is really good! First game I played so far in LD25 that is turn-based. Nice work!
Congrats for making a turn-based strategy, it's not an easy genre, but unfortunately the game is very obviously unfinished.
I really like how you did the individual fights. It was simple , fast, and communicated what you needed to know. I wish the tiles had been bigger so that clicking them was a little easier. Also, the distance to the other heroes outside the wall seems unnecessarily far.
Nicely done. I like it too where it costs less to walk over the path than if you walk over grass.
Damn it's adictive! Heheheh! Kinda hard, but i like it this way.
I did as you said and attempted to kill everything. It was hard and I died! haha, cool game though. Even though you didn't finish it looks and plays pretty well.

IMPORTANT NOTE: If you want to place in the final results, you NEED votes. The easiest way to get votes is by rating other games. Judging lasts for 3 weeks following the end of Ludum Dare. For best effect, rate 20 games as soon as possible. Rating more games is encouraged.
MORE TIPS AND DETAILS AT THE BOTTOM OF THIS PAGE
REMEMBER: The “Theme” category is only for the main theme (You are the Villain). Don’t penalize for not using Goats.
TEAMS: Teams entering the Jam should pick a single representative to submit your game, or create a team specific account you can share. We currently do not support Team Voting, but sharing an account and together playing and rating games is acceptable.
NOT LOGGED IN?: If you get a message about not being logged in, even though you are, it’s because your web browser cached the non-logged in page. You can fix this by either refreshing your cache or clearing your cache. CTRL+F5 in many browsers. Chrome is a bit more work. Press F12 to enable Developer Mode, then you can right click on the refresh button and select “Empty Cache and Hard Reload”. This option is unavailable if you are not in Developer Mode.
We’ve identified the problem, and should have the page caching bugs fixed for next Ludum Dare.
PORTS: Ports to other platforms can be done after the deadline. That said, the sooner you finish your port, the sooner people can play your game, improving your chances of placing in the final results. For best results, provide a Web version of your game, or a Windows version with no dependencies. Also be sure to rate about 20 games to improve your visibility.
MY GAME DOESN’T SHOW UP: If you can’t find your game, it’s usually because the URL to your downloads are missing ‘http://‘. Fix your URLs (http://mysite.com/mygame.zip) and you will show up.
MY GAME CRASHES, IS UNBEATABLE, OR I MADE A TYPO: We allow you to fix crash or win condition bugs after the deadline (in a sense, like “porting” to support more players). We also allow “typo” bugs. I.e. A true that should have been a false, a word that should have been a different word, very tiny changes that you would have caught if you had more sleep. We leave this open to interpretation, but generally speaking your game should be identical to the game you submitted. No new features, just things you messed up last minute. Typos.
It's got a nice classic feel to it I like it.
