Ludum Dare 26

It was Ludum Dare 26 last week - wasn't terribly keen on the theme of "Minimalism", which seemed to push people in three directions - a literal interpretation, with minimalist art & music; token gestures, where they did whatever the hell they felt like and put "minimal" in the title; and abstract, where minimalism was a feature of the game setting - e.g. the villain you're fighting is a minimalist. Didn't see many where the theme inspired a novel game design; especially annoying is that they've already had this theme for a previous LD.

Anyhow, my offering can be found at http://www.ludumdare.com/compo/ludum-dare-26/?action=preview&uid=8404

I also wrote a quick post-mortem here http://www.ludumdare.com/compo/2013/04/29/ludum-dare-26-post-mortem/
