Cool game, a little help text would have been nice and the right click-scroll was a bit buggy.
Overall pretty well designed though. I like the world map!

Love this :) Not a very rich game, but still fun and addicting. Leveling kept me playing for some time. XKCD references always add points, as do the other nefarious acts.

Definitely one worth coming back to.

I cant see the text, its all just white blocks (Windows 8)

Hi! It seems the sprites are not displayed correctly on my computer (Windows 7). I only see white boxes. The country shapes are displayed correctly.

When I move the mouse cursor onto a white box after zooming in, some information on what these characters can do is displayed. But I am unable to do anything, or have I missed something? Maybe it does not run correctly on my PC.

Took me a minute to figure out how to get minions to do things. I liked the laughter on completion of a mission. Minion HP bars were hidden by rank markings and mission progress bars when putting multiple minions on a single task.

Right, I've uploaded a new build that should fix all the white blocks everywhere (The extracted version). Please tell me if it still doesn't work.

This is really addicting. I didn't stop playing until I feel the minions are just too many to keep track of (more than 20) The MOHAHAHA is a nice sound effect lol

If you keep on playing until you reach "ONE HUNDRED BILLION DOLLARS!" then you'll get a nice surprise :)

I liked the idea, I liked the graphics, good and simple which works for these kinds of games, but I wasn't sure what you're supposed to do

- Could use a bit more variety
- Needs a bit of a tutorial, it was a bit confusing what to do in the beginning.
- I'm not sure how you could lose. I understand your basis is Evil Genius, which I adore, but I must say that the original is better ;)

So yeah, do keep it up; I think it has potential but isn't just there yet. For the record, I'm a whiner, mine isn't any better :P

I liked it, fun experience!

I don't understand why both "North America" and "Iceland" are regions. I also don't understand why there's no Britain or Ireland.

xgeovanni 2012-12-17 17:34

And the "extracted" version still has white blocks for me.

ace 2012-12-17 19:09

The white blocks shouldn't possibly be able to happen, with the unextracted version it can happen because the harddrive isn't fast enough to extract the files from the data archives in time, but unextracted that shouldn't be able to happen.
As with the white text on Windows 8, the font I'm using to draw the text is literally baked into the executable so it can't happen because it's missing. All very strange and I have no idea how to fix it, sorry.

I just learned that the white text bug might happen if you have an AMD card with a driver below 12.11, try updating to that if you have such an issue.

I was having a blast with this game. The only thing I really want is many more task labels, and a minion organizer. Also this was a real buzzkill: http://puu.sh/1D1zI
This is the first LD game that I've ever given full 5s to. I hope to see further revisions on this!

I liked the game, but unfortunately just when I started to really get into it, it crashed.

cyboot 2012-12-23 12:35

funny game. It took me a while to figure out how it works (I almost give up because I didn't try to zoom in and it seemed to be broken) but it was fun after that.

neonlare 2012-12-27 17:42

Very sleek. Very smooth. Very fun! Got addicted to this for quite some time. Love the presentation style too!

Got the white blocks here, both versions, Win7 x64.

I can't see much purpose in this game, jutr putting minions in circles, no enemies, no obstacles. Might be a good strategy game, but for now it's a very simple, basic concept with awesome evil laugh :)
