This was awesome, I spent so much time trying to score unsuccessfully before realizing the solution. Short but I like where it's going!

jacklehamster 2013-12-16 21:29

Thanks LTPATS, please check back again after jam, when the game will be done!

jacksgamessucks 2013-12-17 08:42

HAHA nice! i had more fun than playing fifa :) great idea, great job!

lolshouse 2013-12-17 09:28

This game was fun. So fast paced!

hyde-wyvern 2013-12-17 09:29

extremely adicting u don't know how hard I tried to score a goal :( amazing game, really fun and perfect for the theme!

kwl_tw 2013-12-17 09:32

Great game! I love it!

jacklehamster 2013-12-17 10:29

BTW, can anyone confirm if that the win/draw screen is working? I can't beat my own game ;-/

deathbysnail 2013-12-17 10:51

Quite fun. Very hard!

moist 2013-12-17 10:59

Very fun and addictive. The only thing I dislike is how you stop for a while after being hit. I think it would be much nicer to have the character slide instead. But anyway, great game!

dohan 2013-12-17 22:48

Wow, very fun and very hard! The draw screen works fine, but I've been unable to win... I've been scoring at least one own-goal per match.

godstroke 2013-12-17 23:06

Never mind if it's not, (I may have just felt like it), or you know it already. When you move diagonally vertical and horizontal speeds get added and you move faster than moving sides. You can fix it by little trigonometry.
Here's a brief explanation.

I lost 0-3! :D

recursor 2013-12-18 01:08

The graphics are lovely and the sound isn't bad either. I managed to score one goal and felt pretty good about it. Quite Fun.

thecoolestnerdguys 2013-12-18 18:12

Haha, very cool!
The graphics are good.
The sfx are a bit annoying.
The name parodies are hilarious.
And I suck at this game bad as I suck at soccer IRL.

f7f5 2013-12-18 23:00

My player is a diver!! I actually managed to score once. Hilarious but very hard.

mcdonaldswizard 2013-12-19 01:12

Its real hard but very gratifying when you actually do score. I lost 3 times in a row before figuring it out. The art for the characters is amazing, but it makes the grass stand out as being not as high quality. Controls felt very responsive and smooth. Very well done.

zorfmorf 2013-12-19 11:56

Haha the feeling of unfairness is strong with this one! Just had to play the game until I managed to get at least one goal in against these *****

_zulli 2013-12-19 12:47

Cool idea! Very challenging!!! Good job :)

If you have time please rate my game! I would really appreciate it :)

grambler1 2013-12-19 12:52

Really hard!

nelien 2013-12-19 14:02

The controls are very tricky for me, not sure why, this makes the game impossibly hard. But I really like the visuals and tongue in cheek humour. Well done!

dustystylus 2013-12-19 18:10

Haha, this game feels like a metaphor for life. ;-D

Very fast and good controls, but very very hard.

stvr 2013-12-20 01:40

Dang, this is frustrating. But it's a lot of fun, too! After getting a destroyed a few times you get the hang of it.

joao-kucera 2013-12-20 02:08

It´s so fun to play. The theme was nice too. Congrats!

fussycashew 2013-12-20 02:34

I loved it! First game so far that I've wanted to sit and play over and over.

blumist 2013-12-20 05:06

I just got gorilla stomped.

lilinx 2013-12-20 07:36

This is a great little game! Ok I got my ass beaten up 3 times and that was quite humiliating. The whole idea of having to play a match alone against 11 gorillas stronger and faster than you is wonderful.

rojo 2013-12-20 09:07

Pretty tough! I like the use of the theme, though.

glovecat 2013-12-20 10:17

wow! It's a very hard game! but also very fun, great work! :)

alyip98 2013-12-20 14:28

Nice game :) challenging but fun :D

parapup 2013-12-20 21:07

Cute simple game you got here x3

brmassa 2013-12-20 21:51

I lost so many times.... hahahha

zkenshin 2013-12-21 00:24

Quite a fun entry!
Collision boxes around the gorillas for knocking down the player may have been slightly too large.
Great job (:

jgpicatoste 2013-12-21 14:22

It's so good, but it's sooo hard. Fuckin gorillas ¬¬. Had fun playing this!

van-noctar 2013-12-21 16:04

It's the first football game that i see! good job!

gaspard_ 2013-12-21 16:18

Arrrghghhghg! Can't win!

kill0u 2013-12-21 21:29

The win & draw screens work :)

kunonooni 2013-12-21 23:42

What a cool game. well done!

anvoz 2013-12-22 05:43

Really fun game to play. A gorilla was named Justin Bieber lol. I could only score once after a few tries. Really good AI.

yosh 2013-12-22 10:50

Really fun! It's just very hard to survive face to these giant and powerful gorillas :D
One weak point would be the AI, as hard as it can be to work on a functional & smart AI in 72h, there is still a situation during which the bots get stuck with the ball and you can't do anything because your poor cat is way to weak to tackle or anything :P

hypnohustla 2013-12-22 12:54

I cant believe I could actually enjoy a football game. :D Really addicting! With some gameplay adjustments, this could be something really awesome! :) I hope you continue to work on it.

diptoman 2013-12-22 15:11

That was really hard. D:
But great concept, and the A.I. is very well made for such a short time!

kirbytails7 2013-12-22 17:52

Pretty fun. The controls are a bit unwieldy, but not necessarily in a bad way. Why is diagonal movement so fast, though?

techblogogy 2013-12-22 18:46

First of all IT HAS CATS, so that's already something. At start I was confused, but after game was good.

cakemonitor 2013-12-22 23:37

Great game, with good challenging gameplay (and I usually don't like football games - but this is an exception!!) on one game I managed to somehow send the ball over and past my goal and although myself and the gorillas kept chasing it we never found it - after a minute or so I just restarted. I found the sound a bit grating (and it's the only game so far when someone else in the room asked me to make the noise stop ;) ). Overall though a very fun and compelling game. Good work

endesga 2013-12-23 01:42

Awesome game, very cool :)

olafsworld98 2013-12-23 02:33

ha nice

mcapraro 2013-12-23 06:01

really hard!

latfoued 2013-12-29 10:34

Very nice gameplay really liked it, makes me so mad when you can't get the ball from the big guys xD. Good job

ayame9joe 2013-12-30 10:16

Awesome

vanhavihtahousu 2013-12-30 14:14

This was really cool! Loved the challenge and Ronaldo McDonald.

beavlgames 2013-12-30 20:12

Really nice soccer game. It reminds me of Sensible Soccer. Good all fun!

gokuhd 2014-01-02 02:52

Freaking gorillas!!!I really hate them >< I wanted to punch them in th face and take the ball from them haha. Awesome game man, great job.

colapsydo 2014-01-02 09:45

It's quite hard since gorillas stun you so easily, but it's a kitty against gorillas so I guess it's ok.
Nice work on the players name.

cappelnord 2014-01-03 13:50

Fun little game :)

mmickyman 2014-01-03 21:58

Tricky, but funny eheh.

alexfili 2014-01-04 11:04

This game is really difficult. Interesting theme though and best of luck in future LD contests.

Jeremias 2014-01-05 13:43

The controls are very unfair: I know I have to be weak (story-related), but it's hard to get to the ball or make a goal with the limited view and the big range of the enemies. Anyway, quite fun!

sahoskins1 2014-01-05 20:12

Think the biggest problem I had with this was how difficult it is as soon as you get knocked down. Maybe a sideways knock in momentum or something would have been a bit more fair than falling down. Still, good effort with nice cartoon graphics!

ziomorti 2014-01-06 13:40

Argh! Quite difficult! Loved the names :D

cakencode 2014-01-06 19:13

Hahaha, love the inspiration. ;) The game was pretty hard for me since my perspective was to just try to shoot it into the goal (sports is not my thing...) but after much perseverance I was able to manage ONE goal! Felt good, even though I still lost. :) Great work!

jacklehamster 2014-01-06 21:02

In the post-jam, I toned down the difficulty but added a goalie. I hope the game is still reasonably challenging.

raphy 2014-01-06 23:13

Funny game but it felt really hard to control the ball. Also other players are gigantic and so hard to dodge, it's a bit frustrating. Camera zoom makes the terrain feel kindda weird too.
