Ludum Dare 41

I took part in Ludum Dare 41 recently, the theme was “Combine 2 incompatible genres”. I went for “Monster Dating Sim” and created a game I’ve called “Monstrously Hunky”.

The game auto-generates names and descriptions for the potential dates, and then puts you into a question and answer scenario for the dating portion. During the questioning the correct answers are inferred from the descriptions of the monsters (traits like “Rage”, “Family” and “Comedy” are attached to each description behind the scenes) and then calculated per monster for each question.

It’s rather silly throughout, but it was a lot of fun to make and seems to be going down well over on the LD41 page: https://ldjam.com/events/ludum-dare/41/monstrously-hunky
