Critter Tag - a visibility polygon game

Chase critters down and catch them!

Critters can see you and run away if you get too close unless you turn the lights off by holding down A or B. Under the cover of darkness, move in and release the A and B buttons to turn the lights back on and tag the critters!

This is just a small demo, not the full game. If you like it, please let me know! All feedback is welcome!

Well there goes my game idea, lol. Nice work.

Haha tell me about it! It always seems like somebody else has already done my ideas. Was yours exactly the same as this?

Not 100% the same, but definitely the casting of the shadows, I had looked up the algorithms, etc. No worries. I’ll give a shot to your game when I have a min!

Thanks! And if you have a similar game in mind, I say go for it! Let’s drum up some excitement about visibility polygon games. Maybe it will lead to collaboration. Maybe a crossover???

Looking good, and good frame rate. Note that I had some issues installing it, but maybe it’s my Playdate. It had not been updated in a while, and your game required an update. Even after updating it, it wouldn’t load. I had to use the “Load all updated games” feature in the new Catalog to download it alongside other games.
