Way too simple... And a little extra penalty for being for OS/X only.

Way too simple... And a little extra penalty for being for OS/X only.
E for effort.
I THINK IT'S PRETTY LAME TO PENALIZE SOMEONE FOR MAKING AN OS-SPECIFIC GAME.
Anyway, I destroyed all the monsters and won. Hurrah.
@increpare: well done! :)
I defeated all the monsters and won! An extra little bonus for being OS/X only. ;)
Congrats on making a Ludum Dare entry!
I agree that taking 'penalty' for being only for OS/X is really lame and childish. The game will get enough penalty from the fact that a lot of people wont be able to play it in any case, and this includes me! I'll vote for community, still.
Affecting your ratings by OS / architecture isn't a good idea. If I penalised each game which wouldn't run on here, very few would get a good score.
Having said that, stuff that doesn't run properly is very very annoying. I blew 8MB on Spacebrick only to discover that Unutty stuff doesn't work with wine-1.3.9 (whereas Game Maker for some weird reason works a lot better... the tables have turned o_O).
By the way, there is a Very Good Reason™ why the source code is posted, and that's for hopes of cross-platformness.
Oh yeah. This isn't OSX-only from what I gather. Note that one of the files are "makefile.linux". Also, "makefile.mingw" which is WINDOWS. So ramon, FIX YOUR DAMN SCORE.
Same goes for you, refrag. Also, Macs suck*.
*only joking, but iPads/iPhones/iPods suck by political design.
Wow, what a spirited discussion :) Thanks for the encouragement, everybody.
@GreaseMonkey: Yeah, in theory the code should compile without modification on Linux and Windows as long as you have MLton, but i don't have the relevant machines handy to produce a build (contributions welcome!). But i have to admit i was pretty lax about making the whole thing execution-speed insensitive... if my past efforts are any indication, it'll probably run way too fast on Windows and way too slow on Linux :) (OS X, of course, is juuust right ;))
Don't penalize for OS. It OS/X, he's penalized enough already :)
Have Windows and no MLTon, so can't fairly vote.
osx only..
I'm one of the many people that will not be able to play this, which sucks considering I want to play all the games and advance to the rank of Master Player of All of the Games.
I was going to rank for community but it seems that you have made no blog entries or anything of the sort. So I'm leaving a comment.
SS seemed neat.
