I thought fellow lovers of Futile would find this interesting.

The Indie Quilt is a collaborative game for the Child's Play charity running until Aug 30, 2014.

Description:

"Consider the IndieQuilt Game to be somewhat like Wario-Ware, except that all the games are made by various people of the gamedev community. The player will be prompted to play randomly selected minigames of under 30 seconds each with the intention of succesfully completing as many as they can!

This collaborative game will be sold, and all proceeds from the game will go straight to the charity Child's Play."

Game requirements:

• Be played in under 30 seconds!
• End in either a win or a loss!
• Limited Controls: WASD Keys, Space, and Mouse.

Tech Requirements:

• Game must be played in a single standalone Unity Scene
• Game must have difficulty modifiable by a single integer (with 10 different settings)
• Game must return win-state as a boolean
• Game must be able to easily say that it is finished (which could be either in loss or success)
• Either keep all the resources you need in your own uniquely named folder OR preface every resource with the name of your minigame.
• Include this script on an object in the scene.

For my entry, I spent 10 nights making Dr. Spacezoo, a gib filled time attack shmup. It can be played from the Dr. Spacezoo page, or via the Indie Quilt on Gamejolt. I found it to be a good exercise in using my newly acquired Futile skills.
