is the way. *serious FACE.* :-D
Loved this game! At first the controls were unintuitive but then they became very satisfying.
Bahaha, funny! Also the sound was great.
The controls were great! I liked the way you could shoot the food directly down the duck's gullet - sort of a foie gras simulator. I didn't like it when I ran out of white ducks - I ended up having to feed an asshole duck. Maybe it was because two good ducks ate the same food.
I have to say, this is the best game featuring asshole ducks that I've ever played.
Thanks, dawgs, glad you liked it!
JoeProgram: It was an issue of which I was aware, so I added some extra white ducks. They do wander, though! I sometimes spend a minute or two waiting for a white duck to make his way back to me, all, "yo, I want food." I try to use to time for to reach enlightenment. :-D
Ducks! Quite a hilarious game. Why are they not in a pond?
Because they don't deserve a pond. >:-O
LET THEM GLIDE GRACEFULLY ACROSS THE GRASS, THEIR WADDLES FORGOTTEN IN THE WINDS OF TIME I SAY!
Zolmeister: passing out for the night but I'll check your entry out tomorry!
those ducks are nuts
Haha that was surprisingly fun XD
Nice music ;)
Hilarious all around.
Really epic OST to this game
Do you guys want the song? I guess I could make it available for DL somewhere...
Song location added to notes, if'n anybody wants. :-)
Nice music, very simple graphics but a fun as hell gameplay. And the most creative take on the theme I've seen yet. Well done, sir!
hehehe that was fun. not really sticking to the theme, but who cares?
Whaaaaaat? But the ducks they only gets one! I say to them, "You only get one, ducks!" Like IRL!
lol, thanks for playing everybody! I am immensely enjoying all of your games.
I could've used this launch mechanic in my game. Why didn't you tell me!
That wasn't relaxing in the slightest... Great game!!
I love subtle interpretations of the theme like this.
The controls seemed a little hard for me to get
The music was intense.
The scoring mechanic was pretty cool.
Pretty good!
GOD DAMNIT ASSHOLE DUCKS, STOP EATING IT ALL
IS WHAT I'M SAYING, RIGHT??!
Asshole ducks should move a bit slower for every piece of ill gotten bread they consume, the bastards.
Liked the organ music, represented the general mood and sentiment of duck feeding.
Haha, awesome! :)
Awesome instructions are awesome. Those ducks are clearly assholes.
Ha! High points for humor and the game works well. Only thing: I wish i could throw the food underhand so it's slower, rather than firing it out like a bullet.
(BTW: My game should be playable now.)
Right, talking at people!
JohhnySix: A friend of mine recommended the same thing! He also suggested the assholes gain weight over time, which also seems interesting, but he suggested that while I was in the middle of working on the leaderboard integration and I was all like, "eh, whatevskies, I'll fix it in post." Conversely, I thought about making the unfed ducks get slower and lose weight from round to round. As of right now, the asshole ducks get a.... +20? ish? Modifier to their speed randomization with every successive round, and even that is working okay but not 'xactly as I wanted it to so, y'know, ::shrugs::!
deathray: You can throw a little slower but you gotsta get closer to yourself (uhh...) than I would like; is tweakable, but don't want to mess with anything while voting goes on. :-)
THANK YOU ALL FOR PLAYING AND FOR FEEDBACK(NO PUN INTENDED). LD is bestust!
Great entry.
Simple, fun, great entry. I included it in my Ludum Dare Compilation video series, if you'd like to take a look http://youtu.be/mLdQN8xdVMY
Hey thanks, both!
Jupiter_Hadley: You played my team's submission last LD; keep rockin'!
Took a while 'til I got how to use the controls. Was short but funny :)
interesting to say the least, asshole ducks keep getting at my food, assholes.
