You are a monster, hiding in a closet inside a little boy's bedroom. It's bedtime, his mom put him to bed.
You have to scare him and make him cry! But beware, you're the kind of monster that vanishes when you're seen by an adult... And mom's come back if the kid is crying out loud...
Gamplay is like a FPS -> move the mouse to look around, move with WASD (no remap requied)
Press E to scare the boy.
Set your graphics in the dialog that show up the first time you launch it.
Written in C++ using Ogre; Bullet, OpenAL, libSNDfile and BtOgre
1st compo for me, enjoy!

Good concept! Although once you know what to do it's impossible to lose, you just repeat the same actions over and over. Maybe make the mother come faster the more times you scare the boy or something
Modeling, texturing, rigging, animating... and coding too! Amazing for only 2 days of work.
TheRuseman, thank you! The mother comes actually a bit faster each time, but not by much. Didn't had time to do really playtesting and it may just bug...
fore more presision, The 2 humans are generated with MakeHuman; I onely modeled the environement by hand.
The textures are done with a software called mapzone2. It's procedural generation. It's old (2007 vintage). Maybe you can still find it on the internet...
I got caught, thought I was hiding in the closet but somehow she saw me.
Oddly creepy... But hell of a good effort for just 2 days! Great work! :)
A 3D game not done in Unity or Unreal - awesome! Not the most engaging game but a fun take on the theme.
Major props for doing a 3D game. The mood was great and it fit the theme well. I had fun with it.
Interesting idea but a little repetitive. Impressive art to have finished in 48 hours!
Nice game for a first compo, Good job on getting all the art assets. Good luck with the next one.
@Nichii Thanks! I can't wait for the next compo... I don't feel like I made a "real" game this time. But know I know how the LD works, how the themes are chousen and I have a better idea of what it takes to do something like that in 48h...
I've learnt things that week end! :O xD
Nice idea. But the gameplay isn't too exciting. But considering the time and what you pieced together it's pretty well done.
@Ramiel Thanks ^^"
Your pseudo is awesome. Neon Genesis Evangelion fan?
I had a good laugh at the crying sound-effect. There were also a couple times I got caught when I was in the back of the closet (pretty sure out of sight).
anabitraymustache It's a synt with somme shitty modulation, the wave duplicated in audacity + a little time-shift to add some weird doppler effect. It was better than recording my onw voice then trying to picth it up and make it childish...
Very nice project guys, i really love it, please check our game too and if you liked it give us a vote. Look for Road to hell and enjoy.

Mini Submission FAQ
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.
CAN I ENTER BOTH EVENTS?: You should pick 1 event, whichever you think it’ll do better in. If the idea is strong, and everything plays well enough, you can go Compo. If you’re a perfectionist, and would prefer people to play a more polished game, do the Jam. Historically, more games are entered in the Compo, but with more people and more time, Jam games have the potential to be better (that doesn’t mean they are). Many solo participants do enter the Jam.
If you made 2 games, unfortunately, the website doesn’t support multiple submissions per user. To submit your 2nd game, you will have to make a 2nd account. Only do this if you made 2 games. Alternatively, if one game is better than the other, then consider just entering the better game.
CAN I KEEP WORKING UNTIL THE DEADLINE?: Yes! Immediately after the 48 or 72 hours, we do something called Submission Hour. As the name suggests, it’s an extra hour for you to package, upload, and submit your games. If there were catastrophic issues trying submitting your game, or you misunderstood how submissions work, that’s okay. It happens. We’re flexible. If you need advice, check with the folks on IRC. If you need an admin, get in touch.
CAN I KEEP WORKING ON MY GAME?: Oh definitely! You should! But for the sake of judging, keep the Compo or Jam version around. You can include a link to the Post-Compo/Post-Jam version of your game on your games page, but sure your main links are the original version.
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 at least 20 games to improve your visibility (Coolness).
MY GAME CRASHES, IS UNBEATABLE, OR I MADE A TYPO: We allow you to fix crashes, win condition, or tiny bugs after the deadline. In a sense, this is like “porting” to support more players. We leave this open to interpretation, but generally speaking your game should be identical to the game you submitted. No new features, just fixing mistakes you should have caught had you been better rested.
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. Alternatively, if you just posted it, wait a minute. The cache may not have refreshed yet.
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.
This was a really cool game. Surprisingly done in 48 hours too.
