Cute game, I like the sprite of the rabbit :) The main menu seem a little buggy on my laptop. When I clicked on the text, nothing happened, but if I click a little under the text, the game started

Thanks. About the main menu, that happened to me in Mac and I fix it moving or resizing the screen. It didn't happen when I was using a smaller resolution, so I think I should change it again.

The game crashes on startup with my mac. :/

rephus 2013-08-26 11:37

@Zuige seriously ? I developed the game in Mac and it is wokirng fine. What error did you get ?

Nice work! Cute graphics and more polish than usual for games of this type. Works fine for me.

Me too, on MacOSX 10.8.4.

Thanks @neekobus, but it's the first time I see that error. Are you able to run other libgdx games ? Acording to stackoverflow the problem is in the jre version : http://stackoverflow.com/questions/13571726/cant-load-libgdx-desktop-app-on-mac-osx
I am trying to upload a web version now.

Good news everyone, if you have problems with your jre version but still want to test the game, I have just uploaded a web version here: http://www.coconauts.net/timebomb/

Woha, the bunny is adorable!
Nice idea, i lost most of the times because i hit a bomb with my poor bunny..

nusan 2013-08-26 19:10

Cool game. Difficulty seem to be well adjusted, it's nice. I would like more bomb types !

linuus 2013-08-27 22:39

That was fun! Good job :)

Neat little game. Gets a bit boring after a while though.

nathanhoffer 2013-08-29 02:16

Nice game.. I'd personally like it a bit faster, but well done!!

xaizil 2013-08-30 21:11

Started easy.. then.. woah. Cute graphics, cute idea

obscenelytrue 2013-08-30 21:12

Simple but very effective ... I like it.

Very fun game. However, there were two things that could be better.

1. The game screen was excessively tall. It didn't fit on my laptop screen.
2. The most common cause of death was a bomb spawning right on top of the bunny, making m unable to save him.

manuq 2013-09-07 00:44

pl0xz0rz for 1, if you are using the html5 version, just zoom out the browser

manuq 2013-09-07 00:48

Cute game! Very well done.

My rabbit got to eat a lot of carrots while dodging those pineapples. ;)

I had to use the web version, as both of the .jar files quickly open grey windows and close them. Very quickly.

hypp 2013-09-07 06:52

I would have liked to control the rabbit with the keyboard instead of the mouse. Still it is a cute game and it is quite nice.

rephus 2013-09-09 13:31

Thank you everyone for your comments . I will release a new version of this game after ludum dare so I really appreciate your suggestions.

@pl0xz0rz sorry about the screen size, that's why I uploaded two different jar versions with different sizes, however, you can still resize the game window to fit your screen in java, and as @manuq said, you can zoom out the html5 version too. You are right about the most common cause of death, I suggest you stay away from the borders of the screen, I will improve that on the new version.

@hypp nice suggestion, it didn't occur to me

@NuSan at first I wanted to add more bomb types, but I thought that the key of this game is that is "simple", but I will keep your suggestion in mind for the new version.

Simple game, but cute, fun, and well executed.
