A Game By Its Cover

There's a new competition over at TIGSource that I'm participating in called A Game By Its Cover. The goal is to choose a fake cover and turn it into a real game. The idea, and most of the games, was inspired by a Japanese art exhibition featuring Famicom (NES in Japan) carts of imagined games. It took me a while to choose one but I kept going back to the one below because the characters looked like theyd be fun to model in 3D and it reminded me of Ape Escape. Here's a link to my entry thread on the forums.

Playing With Humans GAMMA Edition

Decided to make the GAMMA version of the game available while I work on the final one.

Note that it has the following restrictions:
No sound
No AI
Locked at 1024x768 fullscreen

Each player uses the A button on their Xbox 360 controller. In order to maintain compatibility with OneSwitch devices (and for hotseat keyboard play), there are keyboard equivalents of each player’s action button:
P1 – Space
P2 – Enter
P3 – Left Control
P4 – Right Alt

Download it here.
Get the final version instead!
