We hope you have some fun - we definitely had!
Background Story:
Cardboard man is trapped deep down in a dungeon. Clever as he is, he hitches a ride on the shoulders of a frost giant - his best bet to find a way out!

Phew, so that was fun. Exhausting, but fun.
It took me awhile to come up with something to matches the theme, especially since I’m more of a narrative person. On top of that, this was my first game jam, so I had no idea how much content I can handle (or many hours I can put without falling asleep at work ). Turns out I can’t handle all that much, but at least in the next jam I should have a better feeling for what I can do!
As per usual in game development, I had to cut a lot of stuff from my initial concept, but hopefully the idea still comes across well. I won’t bore you with a description in any case, especially since reading it would probably take more time than simply playing it anyway.

Select the white plot to start. Then build a farm on that by clicking on the tile. Click Hay Bales to increase earnings.
The more money you earn the more you can buy. Most flat plots cost 200 whilst water is 300 and hills 1000. You need to buy a wind farm license to build power industry tiles.
WASD will move the camera and clicking and dragging right mouse button will rotate the camera. Scroll to zoom.
The theme was interpreted as me trying something that other giants of games had done so well before like GODUS & SimCity. Thanks to Magic sword for their awesome music!

M’LAZ3R is a game built upon the shoulders of giants. Arcade style shooter and casual match-3 clash in a mix of old and new.
With each wave, enemies appear faster and in more difficult patterns…
Simultaneously, your M’Laz3r (Multi-Layer Atomization Zapper, 3rd Revision) begins to charge…
If ever the enemies become too overbearing, then let M’LAZ3R loose! You’ll freeze time and send your enemies into the M-Dimension, where you can match your enemies with the colored blocks to destroy them.
Currently, we do have the two styles of gameplay implemented, but they are not fully integrated with one another. Firing M’LAZ3R will start the match 3 minigame but will not pull in the correct enemies or destroy them.

You are a lonely keeper of Light Emitter - TITAN No. 3002, somewhere in a distant space, where many dangers await for spacecrafts daring to fly through this dark void above. One day incoming fleet is sure about safe passage near your Station, but little do they know about its malfunction. Being their only hope, you grab your trusty jetpack and set off to avert the imminent tragedy. As little and insignificant as you may be compared to the TITAN, will you be able to prove your worth?
Edit (2015-10-15):
I don’t want to touch our package because the jam already ended, so I will just inform that in the game files our project is called “EpicMegaJam2015” and zip file on Dropbox is called “Epic MegaJam - The Midget and the Titan”. Sorry if that will cause any problems with organization of the projects.
Edit (2015-10-17):
Our screenshots disappeared today from the forum, so we changed a host for them (they are now in full HD) and the packaged game (the old link should still work for some time). We used that opportunity to name files accordingly. We also updated information about our assets with a bit more detail and prepared a description of our game.

“Monster Stories gives the player control of a monster who learn new skills as he advance through the level by picking up powerups. The life-span of the monster is short, and it ages while you play, so when he dies a new monster takes over his skills to venture further into the world to learn new skills and talents. But you have to be quick, if you touch any of the spikey monsters or take too long, you will die without passing on your knowledge.”

Our Experience with the Jam:
This was our first ever game jam as a team and we thought it went pretty well. We wanted to do something outside of our comfort zone of 2D and go for a full 3D game.
This involved us learning a lot of new things very quickly as we decided to do this on day one of the Jam. For example, JTheme was able to learn an entire ZBrush pipeline
for our art assets. This included unwrapping and retopologizing our models in ZBrush and then texturing and baking in Substance Painter. Due to having to learn entirely
new processes we got a late start getting into the real meat of game development. This caused us to complete an epic 36 straight hour marathon development session,
9.5hrs of which where live streamed on Twitch!
It would have been nice to have just one more day to really polish up the game, but we are very happy with what we were able to achieve during this Game Jam.
