LD39 — Running out of Power

RUN! Before the power runs out! by zenmumbler 2017-08-04T20:22:07Z

The screen shake, music, and alarm audio all set the tone very well. The left and right arrows killed all forward momentum even if you continued to hold down forward, so I ended up just using the mouse to steer which was fine. Fun little game.

Edit: I was using the arrow keys assuming they worked the same as WASD. Switched to WASD and the controls feel perfect. BTW, I'm using Chrome and haven't noticed any boxes glitch out, if that's helpful at all.

Thank you for the feedback and kind words! Yes @amras0000 -- this is scripted from real conversations with G., and her ideas and impressions based on the prompts given. The audio reflects those impressions as well, though she checked out a bit as the game jam went on. So in addition to what @paracatgames mentioned about riffs v. voice acting (@repusv, @kapricorn-media), we recorded only as much audio as G. was interested in providing, which left us with some gaps in coverage (e.g., the supervillain storyline). To be fair, it's her first game jam. :)

Comment edited, @zenmumbler. Turns out the arrow keys and WASD act a little different. WASD feels great!
