I loved it. It pretty much describes how we feel about life sometimes (or most of the times?)

Great game! Probably the best use of the theme I've seen so far. A nice simple mechanic executed well. The Psychotics level took forever for me to clear, hah! :)

Gasp! I am not the only one with a game about a Jim that wants to be alone!!!

Nice little story. I think that Limiting the number of pushes would have made it more game-y.

Great take on Alone. I think a lot of people have been in this situation at least once in their lives.

This was fun, it's like anti-herding.

Hey thanks for playing everyone! Yes I tried a take on a theme that I think most of us can associate with, even if we don't go quite as far as Jim did :-)

@Dark Acre Jack: Agreed, of course I had plans for more mechanics but time ran out. Funny how that always happens in jams ;-)

Nice story, I like the humorous beginning and gameplay mechanic. Simple, yet efficient.

Very depressing! Such people should get help!

good one :)

Not a very fun game but the story was funny :)

matthias_zarzecki 2011-12-21 22:38

Well, that was depressing. Interesting mechanics though :-)

hipon 2011-12-22 07:39

haha that was fun, but you should make a punishment maybe like too many farts will kill yourself XD

grey-alien 2011-12-23 08:50

Wow thanks for all the kind words everyone. I especially love "such people should get help!" - I assume that refers to me :-)

@hipon: Top many farts will kill you is great! Of course given more time I'd have liked to have done lots more.

Really interesting how the story and mechanics worked together. Nice polished entry and definitely fits the theme. Congrats on finishing. =)

So simple but so amusing :D

Good work ;)
