Loved it!! Very funny and lots of variety. A really original game.

Good idea, love the minigames, but the plaque is too fast for me :(

I love it! It was just hard enough to keep me playing until I finally beat it. The graphics fit the game wonderfully. Also, the variety in the games is fantastic. Great work.

The game didn't start on a Mac OS X Lion 10.7.5 Macbook air!
I saw a frame for a couple of milliseconds then it exits!

Hmmm that really is shame, with no Mac myself at this time I can't really diagnose and fix the problem, which is a real shame, but thanks for notifying me the game won't run on Mac!

I laughed really hard, it was fun! The plague was a bit unclear, maybe some more visual feedback of what you're actually brushing.

Hm that means I can't play it. A shame, since I made a Usain Bolt game as well! http://www.ludumdare.com/compo/ludum-dare-27/?action=preview&uid=26481

Most realistic Usain Bolt simulator I have ever played. The xbox minigame was a controls nightmare, but other than that it was fantastic!

Fantastic idea, I love it! But i have problem to move crosshair in level with X360 pad :D

Nice job! Funny. You made me want to finish the game even if it's hard. Graphics are not that bad i liked it.

myachin 2013-08-27 10:40

game didnt start. may be my videcard is too old...)
i hear music, but i see nothing.

mekuri 2013-08-27 10:41

Finally beat the game! A fun idea. Was the toothbrush level supposed to be as easy? I simply held the brush over his mouth, and the game did the rest :P
Anyways, I had fun playing, good job.

I liked the game, I got up to the part that requires a gamepad and then lost because I didn't have mine plugged in. I liked the art and music mixture, worked well together and gave it a good humorous feel to it. Overall good job.

D: chicken nuggets? really?
Pretty funny overall.

moosefly 2013-08-27 10:46

My only gripe with this is the fact that the hand for the first minigame sometimes gets lost somewhere outside the window, funny compilation of mini-games though, didn't know Usain Bolt lead such an interesting life!

danielcmessias 2013-08-27 10:46

^^ Use the on-screen controller to move the crosshair!

nsun 2013-08-27 10:49

These ugly graphics are so lovely ! Realy enjoyable !

danielcmessias 2013-08-27 10:54

**Updates**
0.1: Level 3 Updated to be more clear about how brushing teeth mechanic works

0.2: Level 5 Updates to be more clear about how the controller works and the cross-hair moves slightly quicker as many people find it way too difficult.

marcellus 2013-08-27 12:39

Best game i've played so far

fireblend 2013-08-28 01:13

That crosshair is waaaaay too slow. Anyway, it was fun and pretty funny up to that point. Good job!

anmorales 2013-08-28 01:14

Weird :P it was really fun nice job!! It is a bit hard, I like it

velospectre 2013-08-30 05:50

Funny idea for a game. I like the mini game choices. kept me wonder what was next. Xbox mini game was pretty rough. A faster cursor speed would help that.

almax27 2013-08-30 21:50

Well...that was...special :p.

voidstar69 2013-09-06 19:46

Cute collection of mini-game, a bit like WarioWare. I couldn't get pass the chicken nuggets minigame, playing on my laptop with a trackpad. I think I would beat it with a mouse plugged in. :-) Well done.

sittaman 2013-09-10 03:14

Amazing stuff. I couldn't pass the brush teeth minigame but the game is outstanding. Also great music by Kevin Macleod, love his work. Five Stars!

paulmcgg 2013-09-14 19:34

Very funny. Xbox game got me though. :P

lordjosephdeburg 2013-09-15 00:42
