Neat game, very funny, The aiming is rather difficult, but very cool game anyway

This game is interesting, well done! I like the connection between the LD's theme and your gameplay, very innovative.

Love the styling on this one. Surprised how tricky it was to get the aim right, not a flaw though.

waynetron 2011-12-19 07:53

Love it, the visuals are sooo cute and really polished. I agree with strkl in that the aiming is difficult, takes so long to spin into place! But other than that an amazing little game!

Fun game. cool atmosphere. Loving it despite the aforementioned difficulty in aiming.

Very good, i liked the comments that the yellow guys make :-). Aiming is a bit hard because i always expected the thing to be thrown *from* the arrow. I suppose putting the arrow behind the player would have been a better idea. Beyond that, the graphics are cute and the idea fits the theme nicely :-)

Really awesome game. I didn't have any problem with the aiming mechanic. I was able to WHOMP EM pretty good. Great use of theme as well. Rad art style, unique game mechanic, hilarious title, etc. THANKS FOR MAKING THIS!

Haha, if you want to see how your game would have looked if you were graphically unskilled with approximative mechanics you should check mine. That was a compliment, don't check mine. Your game is really cool, plenty of stars \o/

great little game, i love the controls

pythong 2011-12-19 16:16

The game is very funny, graphics are cute, I hated the controls though

ziomorti 2011-12-19 18:11

Very nice looking and funny.

The collision detection seemed inaccurate at times.

matthias_zarzecki 2011-12-19 18:36

Ha, nice idea.

ashkin 2011-12-20 05:39

I love it! Polished to shining, with a sound core concept that fits with the theme, topped off with cute and fitting graphics. Very well done.

Fun little game. Great job!

pixel-house-toast 2011-12-20 11:10

Hahah I love this. Thought the aiming was great in my opinion, something different anyway!

the-jack 2011-12-20 17:58

Pretty interesting little shoot feature. I love the simplicity, though it did take me a few to figure out what was going on.

gaeel 2011-12-20 19:09

A good all-rounder for me, I had fun playing this one!

iansnyder 2011-12-20 20:32

Cute and fun :D

iansnyder 2011-12-20 20:34

Really fun, great balance of all the categories, especially for the time-frame :) Clever idea overall!

angrygeometry 2011-12-20 21:03

i found it pretty difficult to aim, so ended up taking the items right up to the "enemies" to fire them off. very polished and a nice art style though.

ashkin 2011-12-20 23:09

I keep coming back to this. I just can't get over how polished it is for a 48-hour game- it's how any Ludum Dare game should be: a core of fun gameplay polished until it shines.

magicrat 2011-12-21 05:48

cool quick short game, interesting mechanic, a little bit hard to tell where the object is going to shoot out of you though because the arrow is beside you

make-a-game 2011-12-21 10:53

Loved this game. The movement feels great, the text is funny and the gameplay mechanics are pretty simple. My only problems with it is the lack of a catchy tune and the feeling that the arrow is still moving even after pressing the throw button. Congrats!

tcstyle 2011-12-21 22:35

Great idea for game mechanics but also quiet difficult. Maybe only spawning outside the circle would help.

mattrix 2011-12-22 16:11

Great little game. Wish it didn't take so long to get all 40 items though.

waynebeam 2011-12-22 19:26

i like this one a lot

shiftingparadigms 2011-12-24 04:12

Cool game, the mechanics could use some work. It really takes too long for the arrow to circle back around. If that was faster then it would give more of a reflex element and less of a timing element which I think would fit this game better.

lixels 2011-12-24 14:55

Very enjoyable, and incredibly bug-free.

cosr 2011-12-25 01:35

Great game. Cure graphics. Had a lot of fun with it.

Aiming was a little awkward at first, and it took some getting used to. For whatever reasons I think I keep expecting the projectiles to originate from the arrow rather than the character, so I instinctively use the arrow to judge throwing arcs. Maybe if you had a little arrow orbit around the character, rather than rotating beside him.

I really liked the item variety, good humour there. Throwing 'Australia' at someone got a laugh out of me.

Very cute! :)

fredericrp 2012-01-09 22:56

Simple but fun enough, the aiming is interestingly new !
(It didn't take the items I found into account on the title screen, but who really cares ?)

shard123 2012-01-10 01:54

Really awesome and polished, as well as super addicting!
