Played the Web version. I like the robot audio. Looks like mechanics could be fleshed out a bit more. The atmosphere really fits the theme well.

I enjoyed playing this game, I couldn't beat it however. I kept running out of fuel or into an asteroid. Still I enjoyed the humorous theme. Is the president of space a decedent of Teddy Roosevelt? The graphics and sound were good too!
Hall crawlers are always fun. I agree with comments above: The player could move a bit faster. I really liked how you animated the player sprite's eyes to reflect the direction you were traveling! I also enjoyed the discovery screens that detailed the different items the player came across. I think the story could have been given some more attention. However, pretty solid entry for starting 14 hours late! And, I thought the lighting helped set the mood.
Fun game. I enjoyed the puzzles. Game got a little slow on my computer during the last level. I was still able to finish. Kinda wanted more puzzles! Over all, good job.
I enjoyed the intro and really liked your take on the theme! The game ran fine on my computer but i wasn't able to destroy all of the planes. I noticed some small stuff with the keyboard: Sometimes when I'd hit escape I'd have my finger on the key too long and the menu would pop up again. I liked the dead-hand based theme and the retro graphics too!
@joekinley thanks for the input! Yeah both the controls and difficulty are in dire need of "tweaking." It's funny you mentioned jumping, the code actually exists but is commented out in the Monkey source. Learned my lesson with respect to time management that's for sure. As for a blog entry, I am not really sure what's good or bad. I was leaning towards a postmortem, but I am open to suggestions. This was my first Ludum Dare. It was also my first time programming with.(in?) Monkey. I figure the postmortem will be about that. More to come...
Fun game. I laughed a bit while playing. Then I realized five minutes had gone by and i was still playing. I know that cross-browser HTML5 audio is difficult to implement but sound would be a nice addition. Cool, simple mechanic though. I played until my score reached 395. Nice work!
cool art style and interesting puzzle! good job!
Interesting concept. I liked the "TreeNA" sequences on the bottom of the selected trees and target tree. Great use of the Theme, and cool graphics.
Cool game, it was quick but I too am on a train, so it worked out well! Touch events were smooth and i liked the bumper effect when selecting a color. I played it on an android phone via the android browser.
Awesome game! Super fun to play. Minimal controls and graphics were spot on. I player this game with one hand, while drinking coffee with the other...on a train. (Android phone, android browser) played both campaign and arcade: liked campaign more. Lots of action and the pacing of the bullets and troops was great! It really created a fun tension with minimal game elements. Nicely Done!
This was a fun game. It took me a couple of times to figure all the puzzle elements. Great job! Its cool that you just used JavaScript and HTML. SoundManager is a good solution for HTML audio. Seriously why is HTML audio so lacking in major browsers? I digress, Really liked the minimal use of color. and the Potato reference made me laugh. Overall I had a blast. Thanks for submitting!
