Nice first entry! The boss is great!

wtfrara 2013-08-26 15:27

404 on Dropbox. :\

snail_man 2013-08-26 15:30

I think it bugged out for me. All I got was a gray screen with some particle effects. :(

proc 2013-08-26 15:48

404, will check back

diogomuller 2013-08-26 15:56

I got a 404 error when I tried to play it.

marcellus 2013-08-26 23:10

I don't understand, all my friends could play without any problem.

marcellus 2013-08-26 23:38

I uploaded it on Kong, and it worked fine when I played it.

Pretty fun for your first game! I quite liked the sound design - it made nailing a row of jocks feel really rewarding ;)

I LOVE FIRST ENTRIES. I ALSO LOVE IT WHEN ENEMIES SEND ME BULLETS. BULLETS ARE MY FAVOURITE GIFT.

dkilford 2013-08-27 13:44

I enjoyed this. It's a game that knows it isn't the best and embraces it. I really liked the humour and the simplicity of it. It took me way too long to figure out to shoot at your face rather than just at the impending apocalypse.

Overall good first entry, the first entry is always the hardest!

Bass sound when dying was really loud, the voices were fun for sure. Looked like paint was used for art, but had an interesting concept. I've never thrown apples at people in a game before haha!

umu 2013-08-27 13:45

That was actually fairly difficult. The enjoyed the last boss. the "kill enemy" noise drove me crazy after the first 5 times I heard it.

dumasflo 2013-08-27 13:48

I'm sound designer and you made me laugh :D 5/5 humor :D Good work !

marcellus 2013-08-27 14:02

thanks all for your comments, about the sound volumes, I really couldn't manage to balance everything as I could only try the game on my own computer (and it sounded fine but with too low volume).
Yes I used paint for about everything since it's the only picture software I know how to use. I'm not really a drawer.
Also I had no time to do better gfx, my only regret is that I wanted more of them. About one for every ingame action. But I had no microphone but the one next to my webcam on my laptop, and recording myself hitting an apple with a stick to get a "on hit" sound was pretty dangerous for my screen, so I had to abandon the idea.

Cool feel, Great work with the audio, I laughed out loud a couple of times

aglushakov 2013-08-28 14:37

Nice entry!

I really like sounds, they are very fun :)

snemanden 2013-08-28 14:38

Haha, funny game. The gameplay was quite nice and cool boss-fight.

cthulhu 2013-08-28 14:38

Ready? Goooo!
Ahah I loved the sounds.
Good job.

mironix 2013-08-28 15:15

This is something :D love the voices. the hand drawing give it irreplaceable feeling

proc 2013-08-28 19:12

Some of my favourite audio and humour. A boss fight to go into the gaming hall of fame. Reminded me of the gameboy camera games. Good fun, make more!

fgielow 2013-08-28 22:16

Good first entry Man!
I think the sounds are very funny XD
Nice work for one man in 44 hours.

aslai 2013-09-02 11:39

Haha that boss fight surprised me and I laughed hard all the way through

unept 2013-09-04 03:57

Hmm, couldn't get past F7 at first. I'll just blame my keyboard and give you the benefit of the doubt. :)

theholychicken 2013-09-06 10:24

AHAhaha what am I playing???
It's pretty amusing anyway! Absurd but amusing!

theholychicken 2013-09-06 10:27

Ok the boss just scared the shit out of me >:[

crowbeak 2013-09-06 12:36

F7? Why such a strange key? Especially since it's hard to use on a laptop.

x-or 2013-09-10 21:53

44 hours you say? Don't you ever sleep or something? :D
You should suggest that to NASA - preventing an apocalypse with apples ^^

marcellus 2013-09-11 12:27

Isn't it the point of the ludumdare X-Or ?

jayjay122 2013-09-13 00:00

Nice to see a fellow Construct user =D funny game too :)
