Thanks for the complement! I had good fun with Himalia (though I wanted to punch the screen a few times from the fast-turning guards :) )
 
Im glad it came together playable at the end. I was worried because I ended up having to reduce/change the game idea several times to deal with diminishing free time during the week. It started out as the turn-based tactical 'Vampires Vs Vicars', where vampires would bite townspeople and the vicars would bless them to turn them back, etc. I stuck with the 'conversion' theme, but it turned out to be a tower defense without as much 'catching'. I wanted to have less linear sprite movement, where you could draw the disco people to certain areas, or drive them away from others, etc, and their presence would turn regular people back into disco folks, but that just wasn't in the cards.

I'm looking forward to playing some of the post-challenge editions of the games that pop up afterwards!
