That's awesome.

pitoum 2012-12-17 15:53

Clearly a great, unique and unsuspected way to perfectly answer the theme!
Go CHARITY! Go!

fonserbc 2012-12-17 16:01

Interesting!

chribbe1 2012-12-17 16:05

I like the interpretation of the theme, making one of the player (possibly) into a villain. The game itself could have been a bit more fun though. Nice clean design.

timtipgames 2012-12-17 16:12

Great great great idea. Agree that the game itself is quite repetitive. 5 Stars for Innovation anyways.

lassedissing 2012-12-17 16:12

Very interesting idea!
Hope charity wins!

gamecook 2012-12-17 16:15

I really like the art style and the multi-layered effect for layers you "scratch off" was interesting. A lot more interesting then I had thought. Not much of a "game" but I think there is a lot of potential here you can build upon.

notnasiul 2012-12-17 16:24

Wait, what? When did Peter Molyneux enter LD48? :D Best part is that this version of Curiosity at least may end up donating something to charity! Or not, if we are villains...

manest 2012-12-17 16:25

More original game I've see here :)

Theorem 2012-12-17 16:26

Brilliant!
Is earning points random? I can't seem to find a pattern.

cornedor 2012-12-17 16:29

I'm... curious...

mrotton 2012-12-17 16:32

This is a pretty interesting idea. Very unique! I like it :)

robashton 2012-12-17 16:41

Haha, funny one - hope Unicef wins!

xgeovanni 2012-12-17 16:43

This is the first game I've rated 5 for innovation. Pure awesomeness.

ointment 2012-12-17 16:47

Well, this is a fresh take on the theme.

jlauener 2012-12-17 16:52

Nice, looking forward for the results.

pierrec 2012-12-17 17:18

Greed is now on my desktop.

harsayhd 2012-12-17 17:20

The best thing I saw ever O_O

gfm 2012-12-17 17:23

Okay this is awesome... and scary!

(I'm not able to explain why... but I just don't fell like playing this... it seems wrong, somehow... >_<)

NinoScript 2012-12-17 17:27

I like being a villain. :B

frozencow 2012-12-17 17:53

Awesome idea! I'm intested to know what will happen 13th of Januari.

bentog 2012-12-17 18:02

Good idea.

NinoScript 2012-12-17 18:25

The game stopped working for me. I click the "TO ME" button and nothing happens :C

Also, many buttons do weird things if pressed more than once before the animations stop.

gritfish 2012-12-17 19:55

Very clever entry. Would have been great for the fuckthisjam.

datw 2012-12-17 20:23

Not really a game, but very interesting. I should warn you, though, to autoclick user.

gamexcore 2012-12-18 00:24

Curiosity Plane?

01010111 2012-12-18 01:39

It would be interesting to serve ads during gameplay that would add cash to a global pot to be divvied out monthly. The visual aesthetic is awesome as well. Great work!

faust 2012-12-18 03:22

When I first see the title, I thought you approached from a similar perspective as I do, but I'm totally wrong. This is definitely one of the most meaningful challenge I've seen so far in this LD, great work.

kwl_tw 2012-12-18 04:26

Such a special idea...WOW

caasi 2012-12-18 06:57

When I found a click with 30pt, I know you are a genius!
Well, you are the villain, although normally we don't call people villain when they make rules. :p

gib 2012-12-18 16:54

Thx everybody for the kind words.

01010111 -> I've considered ads, but it will ultimately make so few money it wasn't worth degrading the clean look of the page :)

Datw -> I can track them. Dunno what to do with them though.

I can't make an improved version yet, as I need to wait for the voting round to end. If I can have some free time, I'll put together an new version that will go live at the end of the contest.

robotic 2012-12-18 17:36

This is a powerful idea and probably the most interesting take on the theme I've seen.

loren 2012-12-18 19:17

Nice idea, good luck with this!

bender 2012-12-18 19:50

Gib is the anonymous account of Peter Molyneux, yup.
5 stars for innovation, very original and unique answer to the theme.

pereubu 2012-12-18 21:53

Disturbing concept, i wanna see the results now 3:

lucasncv 2012-12-19 16:35

Neat idea! 5/5 innovation

yopsolo 2012-12-22 15:13

Benetnuts is the villain :)

daredevildave 2012-12-23 19:20

Nice idea. I suspect the LD crowd will give the money to charity ;-)

I had a bug where "0 points" was visible all the time.

claite 2012-12-23 19:49

I took it upon myself to raise the UNICEF rating by at least .2% :)

Very interesting game.

dr_soda 2012-12-29 06:46

I fail at villainy, apparently. :)

Jeremias 2012-12-29 19:03

Very interesting use of the theme. I'm waiting for the results!

cakencode 2012-12-30 08:52

Amazing entry! I really like the thought and idea of either being a villain or donating. I had a lot of fun fiddling with it. :)

moomoo112 2012-12-30 11:54

rather addictive, and I don't want any money, just the leaderboard..
Also I like how rare the 30's are, makes getting one always exciting, and getting 2 on the same board thrilling

samoojamies 2012-12-30 19:49

Cool idea :D. Good job.

van-merwan 2012-12-31 18:44

Genius!

I clicked. I clicked a lot.
Why ? It's repetitive, it's not especially funny...
But I clicked. I clicked for charity.

Now I'm sure, I'm a good guy. This game demonstrates it.
This is one of my definition of gaming : helping the player to discover himself.
Who need fun when you have this?

georgebroussard 2013-01-03 10:44

Clearly inspired by Molyneux's Curiosity. I didn't particularly think clicking the blocks was fun/flashy enough so I just did one round.

tompudding 2013-01-07 22:03

Beautiful aesthetic and a fantastic take on the theme.
