Refried: Burrito Galaxy 64 Expands Taquito Tower
The mean bean machine
The best thing about Ludum Dare is the regular avalanche of tiny games that people produce during the event. The worst thing is discovering a brilliant concept or idea, and waiting for a larger continuation to be released. Porpentine spotted Taquito Tower during Ludum Dare 27 and described it as follows:
A tower of cube mazes filled with burritos and sassy enemies. Semi-turn based, so actions take place every second...Having at least 5 burritos makes your attacks more powerful, but eating them regains health.
An expanded version, Burrito Galaxy 64, is now seeking votes on Steam Greenlight. The trailer is pleasing.
The game is (not) raising funds via Kickfarter, which is a joke that seems to involve around 0.004% of the imagination in the game itself.
As for how it'll play, I'm assuming it'll share the semi turn-based nature of Taquito Tower but the feature list suggests sinister additions.
