Haha, loved the concept!

dadads 2011-05-01 21:09

Best storyline ever.

twistedjoe 2011-05-02 00:20

This game just broke my brain.

manuel777 2011-05-02 04:24

I died, both in the game as in real life..

winterblood 2011-05-02 04:28

Enjoyed the theme, and it did make me laugh. Can you actually GET a swamp key pass? I'm guessing no, but I only played it through once.

jonbro 2011-05-02 11:25

man, this was the best writing I have seen in an LD so far, way to go.

stalker_23b 2011-05-02 11:54

Haha, really enjoyed this game

jhelle 2011-05-02 14:07

Needs more loot.



I lolled.

Thank you for the huge positive feedback on this little 'story' of mine. I wasn't expecting anyone to like it at all.

@Manuel777, yes, that is a common symptom reported when playing my games.
@Winterblood, no. You cannot get a swamp key pass. I just needed a way to prevent people from going to the left, and I decided to make it a joke on how often times there will be an arbitrary obstacle stopping you in games, even when it would be easier to just jump over it or walk around it.

I promise that for LD21 I will try making an actual game with the same humor in this. Meanwhile you guys can see other games I have submitted to kongregate.com with the same username, if you're interested in seeing my history of stupidity.

the-jack 2011-05-03 23:36

Haha, that was pretty fun.

Sorry, but I couldn't resist posting it to funnyjunk.com

Congrats on finishing the LD48.

lingmops 2011-05-04 18:05

It didn't quite make me laugh, but it did leave a smile upon my face. I'll give you that :P

This scathing critique against modern consumerism is a message kids need to hear.

sonnybone 2011-05-04 19:52

I LAFFED

Mission accomplished

icenine 2011-05-05 03:27

Haha funniest interpretation of theme, nice job.

tzachs 2011-05-05 08:02

Awesome, tremendously funny!
I especially liked how your choices affect the outcome of the game...

djcsdy 2011-05-05 19:47

I'm all for silly dialogue (I even included some randomly-generated silly dialogue in my own entry), but if I'm honest I didn't find the dialogue in this game sufficiently amusing to carry the entry, and there isn't much else to it.

However everyone else seems to like it so I guess I'm just humour-impaired.

I did like the interpretation of the theme, with the items provided being more of a hindrance than a help, and the protagonist never actually getting to go on his adventure. But then, I'm a bit biased because I had fundamentally the same idea, although I made a completely different game out of it.

qrunchmonkey 2011-05-06 04:25

I really like this interpretation of the theme

matthias_zarzecki 2011-05-06 11:21

The ending is good. "and then he died"^^

telluse 2011-05-06 17:57

Hilarious, dude, and actually the game manages to show exactly the mêmes that the theme is based on.

Excellent entry in its minimalism :)

mwest 2011-05-11 20:04

Nice looking and sounding and very funny! Found the fun factor a bit lacking though :-/...

endurion 2011-05-21 06:26

Uwe Boll should make this a movie!
