Big Island is sort of a open-world survival sandbox, the goal is to defend villagers from zombies which come out every night. During the day you can buy weapons and upgrades. You can play it here http://seveibar.github.com/liberated-pixel-cup/
Hopefully I still qualify, good luck everyone!

Thanks! Should be fixed now.
Hi seve,
The game background and idea is very interesting!
I managed to move and attack, but how do you (and what key is for) equip buy objects or talk to villagers, for instance?
Best regards,
Certain villagers (only 3 atm) you can interact with when you press space near them. (They stay stationary and shout at you)
E and Q cycle through your weapons.
T speeds up time (4x)
Shift sprints
F goes fullscreen (sort of)
I'll try to throw in a control menu later today, thanks for taking interest!
Hey Seve, I wrote about your game in my blog http://k3rnel.net/2012/08/11/lpc-game-review-big-island/
I had a lot of fun playing it, though I admit I didn't fully explore everything until after a friend pointed out that there are several villages to the right of where you start.
Combat could've been a bit more intuitive than "hold the mouse button to shoot", I think if it was just a click, it would've been easier. Other than that... great job!
Big Island won HTML5 Grand Prize! Thanks to everyone who played! This contest was a lot of fun and I'm really hoping we go for another round next year!
The game is still available on my github. It hasn't been updated in a while, but trust me when I say big things are coming!

It doesn't seem to work with firefox(19.0+build1-0ubuntu0.12.10.1, but with chromium(24.0.1312.56-0ubuntu0.12.10.3)
Could you look into it?
Absolutely, in fact, the code was written for an older dart compiler and would probably work much better with an update. I'll try to get it done by tonight.
Thanks for letting me know!
Update: All refactored! There are bound to be glitches, but it should be working on most modern browsers now. Thanks for the help!
