I like the idea of creating the game for a player, and the little bit of guessing to figure out how to help them to victory...or screw them over.

This is a nice little game. Kinda like that you're the "game maker" and not the player, and you have to help the player win. I agree with Chaoseed; this would be an awesome game to expand on after the jam.

(I'm in this jam too, btw. My game is HCF. Check it out?)

@Chaoseed: Thanks! I actually wouldn't mind expanding this idea into a rather larger game. My original idea included a lot of other things to create, like more rooms and NPCs, but that ended up going way over the wordcount.

Neat. I'd like to see this idea expanded a bit further, outside the limitations of the Jam. Like, what if the player could actually defeat the Needleman with the pig feed? Come on, stupid player!
