Game: GPS Ghost Hunt
You are a small human in a cap running around avoid ghosts and looking for safety. You physically tilt the controller to make it move. You have a few hearts of life. You can collect hearts, to live longer. Each level is timed. You have 8 seconds to get to safety.
Why the Updated Plan:
Ran out of memory, need to pick a ChipKit board, or optimize memory usage.
Original Plan
In this health game ghosts are hunting you down as your are tracked by a GPS unit. Those ghosts find you a steal energy out of your heart then you die. If you are lucky and survive the combat you collect hearts for more life. This is an outdoor GPS game that has an option heart/pulse logger that you can use to review how the game was played.
Diversifiers
Stay Inside The Box: The whole game takes place in just one screen, no scrolling or changing screens in any way is allowed.
True Colors: The game uses only the basic 16 colors: black, gray, silver, white, maroon, red, olive, yellow, green, lime, teal, aqua, navy, blue, purple and fuchsia. See color chart
Atari Age: The game must be, at a maximum, 4Kb in size.
The Truth is Out There: Some external real world element, such as weather, time of the day, etc, affects gameplay. It MUST affect gameplay and can’t be only a scenario element.
