Moon Muenster

Made this game for 72 hr game jam, #LDJAM #LD33

Note: Web GL port is more buggy than the download. Also, this game is not complete!

The moon really is made of cheese, and inhabited by different factions of cheese beings. The ruling faction, the Swiss have made a financial pact with the earthlings, selling them as much cheese as they can eat. The other factions aren't at all happy with the deal, especially since it really only benefits the Swiss. In an act of rebellion, the leader of the non-swiss factions, called by earthlings the Moon Muenster, has captured several high ranking swiss members and is holding them hostage, demanding a new deal with earth. This has caused all pizza production on earth to seize, and in a uniform cry all earthlings demanded their governments send a rescue party. Bring it on says the Moon Muenster !!!

How To Play?

1. Your weapons are blocks and balls of cheese, of course.

2. Start the game off by selecting your configuration of weapons by clicking the question marks (?) in the weapons panel to view a menu of weaponized cheese options.

3. Once you've chosen all your weapons, clicking on the right most button in the weapons panel, the one that says "Start", will begin the game.

4. Each cheese weapon requires a certain amount of energy.
   There are energy balls that come from the hands of the very tall alien statues. Clicking on these energy balls will add to your collective energy. You'll see your energy count grow in the right most button of the weapons panel, which now displays a "Build" icon.

5. Once you have enough energy to build a weapon, that weapon will "light up" to let you know you can build and add to your weapon crates. Positioning the mouse over the build button will show you which crate is the currently active crate. Which is where the weapon will be placed if you click on the build button. To change the current crate simply click on it or on the cannon which sits above it.

6. Weapons are shot from the cannons on the crates; select a crate BEFORE selecting a cheese weapon. Again, note, you select a cannon by clicking on it or on the top of the crate in which it sits.

7. Once you've added a cheese weapon to the cannon, press the Space bar to fire the weapon. Note, for now weapons come in packs of 3. In future versions they'll be many more configurations and packages.

8. Use the Up/Down arrow keys to change the angle of the cannon.

9. In the game you have a helper, he paces back and forth behind the cannons. Every so often he'll warn you of incoming enemy ships, letting you know which zone they will land in. If a weapon can be built at the time of his warning, he'll ask if you want him to ready the cannon. Just click on the bubble to have him do so.

Note: I had NO time to play test this game before the end of the jam, so I suspect there will be bugs. I will fix these in the coming days.

08/26/2015 Note: Still working on bugs. Remember, this game is not the final version. The final version will not only be bug free but will have hostages (I haven't added those assets yet), and as noted above more weapon configurations.
