December 13th-16th 2013 :: Theme: You Only Get One
[ Real World Gatherings | Ludum Deals | Warmup Weekend ]
Welcome to Monad.
Best played in standalone. But web works, ideal resolution: 1152x648
You are the the god of this world, The One, and you must tend your flock else they will stray from the herd.
You will cast miracles in order to sway the beliefs of your flock, these will cost you the prayers of your Sheeple. Your Sheeple will pray to you to regenerate your stock, you can also call Mass from you alter to get a prayer boost.
Should one of your flock stray and become a heretic they are lost to you forever, you will still be able to cast miracles on them, but they will never sway back to you. They will also spread their heresy amongst the faithful.
Should the faith of the non believers out weigh that of the faithful a new god will be born from their heresy. Should this occur you will cease to be whole and will fracture your Oneness, ending the game.
How To Play:
-Click Sheeple or your Alter to cast miracles.
-Keep Sheeple from falling from your grace.
Miracles:
Sheeple:
Heal, cost - 30: Heal the target Sheeple, increasing their faith, but lowering those who did not receieve your favour.
Feed, cost - 15: Feed the target Sheeple, increase their faith slightly.
Posses, cost - 40: Posses the target Sheeple, decrease the victims faith but increase those around him for a time.
Smite, cost 125: Smite the target Sheeple, killing the victim and restoring the faith of witnesses.
Alter:
Mass, cost - 75, cooldown 190secs: Call mass, all believers will pray at your alter restoring your prayers.
Lynch, cost - 90, cooldown 90secs: Call forth a heretic and have him burned, restoring the faith of witnesses. Requires heretic to be present.
Apperate, cost 25, cooldown 65secs: Appear before your Sheeple, restoring their faith.

Awesome work; an essentially fully functioning god game! The framework for a deep game is all there, and I'm amazed at how much you were able to get functional in 48 hours. (Also, I love the menu art, and the punniness)
I really enjoyed this. At first I thought it was too difficult, but I got better after a few minutes playing. Very impressive for a game jam entry!
Seems cool, but it was a little hard to understand what was happening.
It was a little bit to understand what to do, and graphics could use a little bit more touch. Still pretty impressive for a 48h godsim.
Amazing work for only 48 hours. We need more sheep god games out there. I hope you'll continue working on this game, adding more spells and other things to do. Great work!
Hmm, I think it's not working quite correctly on my machine (Windows 7 64-bit). I heal him a bunch but nothing happens after that :3 great concept tho!
Interesting idea! I was not very good at retaining my sheeple haha. The only thing I could say was that I couldn't close it from within the game, but that's not a big deal.
The most ambitious game I have seen so far and the amount of progress you made was impressive. Many good features.
Much better game when i played it not half asleep! controls didnt confuse me quite so much haha
@zconnelly13 not sure what would have caused that, game developed and tested on win7 64bit machine, have not been able to reproduce.
Enjoyed playing this a lot, but I couldn't stop the "filth" from spreading! Very original idea and impressive amount of work for just 48 hours. Maybe add some indicator to sheep that show their faith without having to hover over them individually. Well done!
Great game. Very impressive for to do all this within 48 hours.
I like the idea quite a lot. Great job.
Enjoyed it. Just wondering is there any way to end the game? Once I figured out how to keep my Sheeple faithfull there didn't seem to be anything happening to stop me any more.
Was fun!
@Dikkop - unfortunately the win conditions got pushed out of time due to prioritising the tutorial and some niggling bugs
Everyone lost faith. :( Well done for such a complex game in the 48h though!
I can't play on Linux as there's no Unity web player for Linux. Can you put up a Linux build?
It's official! I'm the worst god ever.
Good thing I didn't have any ambitions!
Interesting concept, I should make a God-like game too one day...

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
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.
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.
An interesting concept, and I'm impressed at how far you got into making a god-game in 48 hours! A decent bit of fun, too - a very solid showing.
