2d sprites in a 3d game nicely made :)
Long time no seen such a game
Well at the current state it is I lost when I start I'll come back later ._.
It suddenly became playable, Please excuse me.
Hard bug here, going to look into it
Fixed! The code that was looking if there were any surviving goats to make you lose was running before goats were added. haha
Good Game Kroltan :) Although I suck at it :(
May i ask, What did you use to create the 2D Sprites, and what (if any) Asset did ou use to manage those on Unity? Some SpriteManager?
@SumX: I used this: http://www.famitsu.com/freegame/tool/chibi/index1.html (Dated back from the times I used RPG Maker) to create the human characters, and built my simple SpriteManager (see source of game) that allows for basic animation by UV switching.
The manager is simple: drop it in a GameObject, select spritesheet and dimensions in cells, put a Transparent kind of material and you're done. There's some obviously-named public methods for hooking into anything you would need (animation management, etc).
I love the art style, that's what I was planning on going for. I was a little lost on the gameplay, and I wasn't too sure about the theme until I realized I could beat up the eskimos by running into them :)
The music alone is worth playing this game. I didn't hear anything like it since the frog song in Botanicula.
But it lacks actions, clear goals. A sword to slay the villagers would help, or a pen where I can lead the goat in to be safe.
@TomK32: Thanks! I might do a post-compo version with the pen you suggested, however I kind of disagree on the matter of swords since you play as the Goatman, and goats attack by ramming at menaces. Possibly even a 2-player version!
Nice Game I do enjoy and the goats >.<
Wow nice game - I like this :)
Fun fact: the "AI" in this game are just magnets.
Still uploading standalones, for now use the web version.
It's original
The graphics are nice and I liked the gameplay where you use momentum to damage the villagers. I didn't like the music.
Neat idea. Smashing the villagers was fun. Weird music :).
Nice graphics and cool gameplay. Not sure if it fits the theme though
that was refreshing! Sprites are nice too! the music was a bit stressing though...
