[ Peristarkawan @ 22:29 ] Unfinished

Well, it turns out that one week isn't long enough for me to finish a game by myself when I have to work four days of that week. Much of the gameplay is unfinished, but I've uploaded what I have to give an idea of it would have been like. There are no pegs pre-placed to tie strings between as there should be, but in this development version, pegs can be created arbitrarily by right-clicking. Ultimately, there would be a limited number of strings of different types and lengths available in the bottom toolbar, but that also hasn't been implemented yet.

[ Peristarkawan @ 06:29 ] My game

The way my game is shaping up, it's going to be a Lemmings-style game, with ants trying to cross a chasm over strings that are placed by the player. The available strings are limited in length and number, forcing the player to carefully choose a combination of routes between the pre-placed posts in order to lose as few ants to the chasm as possible. As an added complication, overloaded strings will break.
