Curse Collector

by bridgs

[Click to Play]

A silly game for Ludum Dare #40! Built in 72 hours from the prompt: "The more you have, the worse it is."

You are a curse collector! Your goal is to slay witches to get them to curse you. But the more curses you have, the harder (and overall just sorta crazier) the game gets.

Arrow keys: move
Z: attack

Try to slay the witch on the other side of the screen. Each witch you slay will curse you. Keep going for as long as you can!

No sound, very little game balance, just a prototype built from a weird idea for a reverse roguelike.

8 Legs to Love

by bridgs

[Click to Play]

Goal
Spin a web, eat bugs, earn points, and have fun!

8 Legs to Love is separated into six levels of just over two minutes each. The goal of each level is to spin an elaborate web and use it to catch bugs. Each level poses a different challenge for building and maintaining a web, and introduces new and exotic types of bugs. Complete a playthrough and work towards a personal high score! Or just have good time, there's no pressure.

Controls
Arrow keys - move
Hold Z - spin web
--> then Tap Z - place web

Bugs
Fly (blue) - the most basic of bugs, +10 points
Happyfly (pink) - a bug that's having a good day, +20 points
Beetle (red) - chews through web, +30 points
Hornet (yellow) - will sting you unless you catch it first, +40 points
Firefly (orange) - explodes if left uneaten, +50 points
Dragonfly (green) - will shoot fireballs when caught, +50 points
Butterfly (rainbow) - a rare sight, +100 points
