Dark Hunger
A downloadable game for Windows
Why not be the monster, for once?
Dark Hunger is a short 2D top-down game created for the Weekly Game Jam (week 128), where you get to be the monster! Slither through the shadows, sneak up on your prey, and eat up! Don't get spotted, though, as your prey will most likely make a break for it!
Though the game teaches you the controls, here they are, for reference:
- WASD: Move (8-directional)
- J: Dash

I really like the theme.
Seems a lot can be built from this project.
Yeah! I had a few more ideas on top of what I built, but just didn’t have the time to implement them. Thank you for the feedback! 😊
Neat! The menu screen has a great mood to it haha.
The controls felt really really clean too. :O
Thank you! ☺️ I put a lot of work into the controls and menu screen, so it’s good to know they were appreciated.
I like it, reminds me of the Carrion demo game.
Core gameplay is sound, would be fun if expanded upon and there were enemies that could attack you/shine light/etc.
Yeah, I thought about having a “Searcher” that would use a flashlight to warn others or a “Hunter” that would attack you, but I didn’t have enough time to implement that, unfortunately. Thank you for the feedback! ☺️
