***For best experience use WINDOWS build. Reuploaded as it seems that some people experience troubles with win version (both on itch.io and dropbox)*** Linux and OS X versions are uploaded now.
My FIRST Game Jam!!! Ludum Dare 33.
///
This game is about cartoony monster creature that hunt cartoony villagers at night. That's SIMPLE.
///
THANK you very much everyone for comments and feedback. Anything will do actually.
///
TIPS: To pull humans out building blocks try to get their attention in front of windows/doors
Left mouse button - move/attack.
Try to avoid bullets attacking from darkness.
Level 3 is the end of the game and it will restart all over again when finished.

only see a purple null material block at the bottom-right of the screen, and nothing happened after tens of seconds.
Hey A_K_, I added a loading screen to my entry, you might want to check it out again, I think you should be able to run it.
Also, I can't run yours because I am on Linux.
I like this game! It is working well and it is a good level of difficulty.
I really enjoyed the theme, the controls felt odd and it wasn't clear what to do, but I really liked the monster and the idea.
I think that it was a really well done game. The environments and the objects were great and the lights, particles and monster all fit into the theme. I got some Hotline Miami feels from this game, and it was definitely interesting. I think the controls were a bit difficult at times, and the attack sound the monster used got really repetitive and overwhelming after a while. For some reason I kept getting stuck on the 3rd (or 4th?) level after I killed everything. I think you did a great job!
I like the concept of being a prowling monster and hunter expecting people.
I kept expecting my character to jump on the people but it jump short a bunch of times. The jump was also getting stuck on geometry.
Peterkirk, hmm, you are right i suppose creature require better jump mechanics for sure. Just hard to balance all stuff in such a short time. :\
Awesome! Felt like a boss when pouncing on unsuspecting victims. Would love to play additional levels with increasing challenge. Great use of the theme. (Added web and OS/X versions of my game which you commented on by the way :))
Man. love the graphics and gameplay, and lightning is soo cool, excellent!
Of the things not already mentioned, I liked the health indicator being the lights on the monster's back. Uncluttered the UI nicely.
Great game there A_K_! I feel like you captured the theme well, the gameplay was enjoyable, and the ambient soundtrack really sold the atmosphere in this game.
Really enjoyed how you worked out the lights on this one. The health bar incorporated on the beast's body was also creative but eventually i got stuck outside with one lazy guy standing inside the house. What a bummer :p
Like the style of this game. The lights work well to set the atmosphere.
And good idea for the health indicator on the creature, it's an interesting way to do it (even if I didn't noticed it directly on my small laptop screen ^^)
Cool game that fits the theme! Sometimes the very cool movements was a bit hard. Nice graphics, cool sounds and a nice environment!
Thank you guys, I appreciate ALL you feedback. The feedback to your game from me won't take long time. LU!
Great lighting effects. Fun idea - felt great murdering humans. Sometimes I'd pounce and miss, and that didn't feel so great.
Good game ! Sound design is very scary. I feel bad for your preys :P
very interesting gameplay, it was a bit hard attacking the guards but i enjoyed it. great job.
Pretty enjoyable, the only thing is some more clear end states/level transitions, and some better sounds wouldn't hurt. But it is a good game
Good entry! I like the idea of predator lurking at its prey. Nice atmosphere and cool mechanic.
Very cool! Gameplay was fun, and the art looked good. Fits the mood perfectly.
Yes! The gameplay is enjoyable and the mood pleasant. I like it ++
Everything great. The atmosphere, the graphics, the theme. I love it. Great work!!
Great first game jam entry! A health bar and transition screens would have been a huge plus but otherwise, great job!
Cool game. I would have liked to try it on a touch screen, because I feel like this control scheme would make more sense like that. Main main gripe with this game is no indication of what the people can and cannot see, which makes this game play more like an action game than a stealth game, which is a shame because it really does feel like it shows potential as a stealth game. Cool game all the same, and with the addition of some way of playing stealthily, I would love to play more of it.
I wish it had keyboard controls. It was hard to click on the people. Very fun! If you make more levels let me know!
I love the audio behind this game. The "Huuh?" makes a perfect "alert" sound which tends to make me turn around and try a different direction. I also love that leaping noise. :D

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.
It really fits the theme well! I just wish it was a bit more obvious what you had to do; I ended up beating the game fine but at the same time there's not much instruction as to how to lure people outside.
