Made for LD52: https://ldjam.com/events/ludum-dare/52/$315423

Programming by @allthebees, art and music by @m11, idea and writing by both. The art was created by physically doing a bit of lino printing, scanning the textures, and then creating a collage in photoshop. The sprites were drawn by hand with pencil and paper, before scanning, and going over in photoshop, reducing it to three colours (black, 50%grey, white) to stand out against the noisy backgrounds. The music was made by running a three chord sequence through an arpeggiator, playing a simple bassline over the top, and then distorting everything with filters/reverb/a pitch shift. Super simple, but the first time m11 has supplied music in a jam situation.
