Plan for Josh Moore

I already wrote a .plan for this, but my music player crashed my computer while uploading my screenshots.

For my first Game in a Day, I decided to go with the theme and make a simple T2D game based on impaling.

I came up with a game where you control an impalation spike(or spikes) at the bottom of the screen and objects fall from the top of the screen and you get points for impaling them. For the objects that you impale, I decided to use famus pop-culture icons.

At first I had a nice green grass and blue sky background, but my impalation effect wouldn't blend right with it so I switched to a plain black background. The new background was way too boring by itself, so I added a "fire pit" to the bottom of the screen. I made a simple level system that spawns lightning bolts(to confuse you a bit) and drops more heads for each level you advance.

BTW: This took about 4 hours to make, most of the time spent in Photoshop.

You can get the game here:
Impalation

The right/left arrows control the spike(or spikes) and holding left shift down will make your spike move twice as fast.

George Bush is worth one point.
Kim Jong Il is worth two points.
Mr. T. is worth a negative 3 points!
Ronald Mc Donald is worth 3 points.
And The Terminator is worth a negative 5 points!

And now for the screenies:
