New Content and Improved Presentation

Gotta Catch Botiman
A browser game made in HTML5

Hi, everyone! 

When I first submitted this game for the GMTK jam, it wasn't everything I wanted it to be. I had to cut out major features and neglected audio entirely. In my spare time, I've made little changes to improve the overall experience and bring it closer to what I had first intended. 

The following changes have been made:

  • Enemy creatures are pulled from a random pool instead of being the same one every encounter. 
  • Trainers can attempt to "capture" you, leading to an escape mini-game
  • Music has been added, as well as sound effects.
  • Whimsical action descriptions, including the type of the action
  • Feedback for if an action is effective or ineffective
  • Cleaner visual presentation with a new font

While there's still a major feature left cut, I feel these changes make the game much more presentable and enjoyable. Please consider checking it out if you enjoyed the original project and have a minute to spare. Thanks for checking out my game!
