*** 2ND PLACE in Ludum Dare 25's Jam competition! :D ***
*** Made in just 72 hours! ***

Dr. Vile, the most despised mad scientist in the world, has one mission in life: become #1. He'll do whatever it takes to win the respect and adoration of every person on Earth - even if he has to KILL EVERY PERSON ON EARTH.

Take Dr. Vile and his AI companion, Lexe, on a quest to build the most powerful Death Ray mankind has ever seen. Will Dr. Vile use it for good or will the villain always be the villain?

Thank you for playing and stay tuned for a bigger and better sequel/version! :D

EDIT: Thank you for all the feedback, everyone! :D We are planning a longer version of Dr. Vile that will have a ton more features - including crafting - so stay tuned and thanks for playing!

EDIT 2: Now with Medals!

This concept has been done to death, but it's still a good one.
As it stands now, it's way too simple to give me any excitement, but an actual "upgrade your death ray" mechanic would make this enjoyable.
I know the aim was to make a simple game, but that just doesn't cut it anymore. Instead of beating up everything, it would've been much more interesting to barter with people for specific parts(like tesla capacitors, laser targeting systems or something funnier, you can go crazy with names). Obviously you would need to get these developed parts from the better scientists, explaining how is Vile the worst. With interesting characters, funny dialogs, death ray developement, and a little logic this could turn out good.
By the way, I disagree with the other comments, beating people is easy, you just need to get the hang of it(and you get that after the first fight you have..). You can keep it as a side mechanic, but it shouldn't be the focus.

if you want to add more fetures you shoud add a way to sell what you gather to buy upgrades for yourself and get to chose what to upgrade and add diffrent place to distroy like a city or a milatary base. it was fun anyway so 5 stars

cool idea, nice graphics, and music is fine. my only problem is it is a bit hard, I died several times, but it is a challenge so I guess that's a good thing!
