Really hard game xD. It should have been a bit slower on the first minute :)

enigmaraigne 2014-04-28 13:08

Preety good

samoatesgames 2014-04-28 13:29

Super hard, but really fun!

nushriell 2014-04-28 13:32

Nice game.

root 2014-04-28 13:36

Pretty cool idea. I got like 135 points. I like the game a lot :)

er_dos 2014-04-28 13:36

This is really hard with a trackpad, fun though!

voxel 2014-04-28 13:38

Interesting and original :) I haven't played anything like this before, which is always a nice change in an LD entry. Tiny shots are tiny though, especially in the flash version.

maek 2014-04-28 14:31

Cool game ,but everything is very small.

quill18 2014-04-28 15:06

Love the idea of feeding the beast below!

I think I would have liked all the graphics being a bit bigger to make the shooting less tricky.

cr2crstudios 2014-04-28 15:07

Really clever, unique!

jellycakes 2014-04-28 15:10

Damn that got hard really quickly. Pretty good, Everything seemed a little too small though. Really nice job

zedutchgandalf 2014-04-28 15:26

If you play the downloadable version, you can resize the screen and play in fullscreen mode to make everything bigger :)

bzizi 2014-04-28 15:39

Ok game, but the music is soooo.... bad :)

sknoslo 2014-04-28 15:41

Collision detection was kinda lacking, making it hard to push the food around. Fun game though, and it got hard really fast.

ezombort 2014-04-28 15:42

+ for having a "tutorial screen" in the beginning. Cool game :)

hexabeast 2014-04-28 15:43

My score: 116
Funny game!

techblogogy 2014-04-28 15:44

So small, can't see

zedutchgandalf 2014-04-28 15:46

@bzizizi Haha :D Yeah, it was pretty late when I figured I should probably write some sort of "music" :P

paperblurt 2014-04-28 15:48

Nice going!

ilo 2014-04-28 16:10

Interesting that you can shoot the food itself if you're not careful. It sure was tricky to push it around though. :)

elforama 2014-04-28 16:34

Hard but fun, nice job.

unixxnova 2014-04-28 16:53

Fun and simple and gets hard nice idea

jacob-peltola 2014-04-28 17:43

Sweet game you've got here, interesting mechanics at work too

wakka 2014-04-28 18:02

I thought that game is way to easy at first, but than it became reaaaalllyyy hard. Well balanced game :)

cawrtz 2014-04-28 20:15

This game is hard ! But it's fun to play. I like it :D

stoo 2014-04-28 21:13

That gets really hard but is a lot of fun!

belingo 2014-04-28 21:15

Hard and funny game. I like it.

terraco 2014-04-28 22:19

Pretty cool.

jomacel 2014-04-28 22:22

A bit hard to control but its fun

towelking 2014-04-28 22:32

Hard game, I liked the concept of grouping food together and feeding it to a monster. Might have been easier to play with larger bullets and enemies.

darkmeatgames 2014-04-28 22:50

You have a decent start to a somewhat unique tower defense game. Needs some polish, but keep it up!

shuandang 2014-04-29 00:17

Nice! I fed myself to the monster

seraphicmedia 2014-04-29 01:04

I had fun playing this game once I figured out the controls and everything. I played it for awhile. The intro was eery, creepy, and awesome! lol Liked the background you used and not bad pixelart.

pinkmonkeyhead 2014-04-29 04:36

Nice game.
A little slow paced for my taste. Maybe you could make it get harder faster or add more enemies.

dustoutgames 2014-04-29 05:23

Well done on ramping up the difficulty curve. It really felt well-balanced.

sink_t 2014-04-29 06:28

A mostly-original idea and mostly fun, but the mechanism of
friendly fire against food made it a little too hard and finicky to play to be really fun.

tweak 2014-04-29 07:05

It's very difficult to see what you are aiming at. I think the bullets should have been bigger! Well done, congratulations on finishing your game!

praporomsk 2014-04-29 07:18

cool game

reinkout 2014-04-29 08:05

Fun game, thanks.

integershift 2014-04-29 12:29

Pretty good, but also really challenging

gaming_ray 2014-04-29 12:58

Fun game, but I wish the graphics were bigger, was kind of hard to make out the bullets.

I like the idea that the reds would eat the fallen blue and get bigger.

Challenging and fun game, good work.

binary_girl 2014-04-29 15:20

nice effort :)

mandlebar 2014-04-29 15:52

Was really fun! Thought I was doing well until I managed to sacrifice myself :(

vigrid 2014-04-29 17:30

Everything seemed too small for me. I'm sorry, but the music was... truly bad :)

ismei 2014-04-29 17:32

I liked the idea of this game, but found the little guys too hard to aim at (my aim is pretty bad though!). Still enjoyed it and kept playing.

ninjabit 2014-04-29 18:34

The bullets could have been bigger!

perfect-victim 2014-04-29 18:56

nice game.

curiousexpedition 2014-04-29 20:05

Grats on the game. I would increase the size of the entities. They are quite tiny, making it hard to relate to them.

marcellus 2014-04-29 20:28

good entry, very challenging. Music becomes a bit boring after a while.

aaronjbaptiste 2014-04-29 20:41

Man I was confused, I wasn't sure if I was meant to let the blue guys reach the bottom (so they got ate) or kill them. I seemed to get points when he ate them, but heard a ding when I managed to feed it the brown pixels. Not sure if my scaling was off. Really like the concept though, well done buddy.

angryloaf 2014-04-29 21:20

this was really fun but the music became a bit annoying

tankete 2014-04-29 21:21

Unique. Fun. Hard!

iamspencer 2014-04-29 21:56

This was pretty fun, I liked the concept. good job :)

abajur 2014-04-29 22:45

Good Job. Clever!

randoman 2014-04-30 11:06

Interesting concept. Pushing food around was tough though

thorig 2014-04-30 11:41

A bit hard, but still a good game.

jeffalisk 2014-04-30 12:36

The graphics seemed tiny in the web player! But good work, nice and playable.

mrexcessive 2014-04-30 15:06

Hi. Strange game ! I like the soundtrack particuarly

xeke_death 2014-04-30 16:47

Pretty fun, but getting the food together was difficult when it is really small...

gins 2014-04-30 16:55

Very hard, but cool idea :)

landosystems 2014-04-30 17:32

Cute little game, sort of trance-inducing.

hanoth 2014-04-30 18:44

I really like the idea behind this one. Very innovative.

stvr 2014-04-30 19:20

Really unforgiving! I kept shooting the food on accident, but it didn't seem like there was a point to stockpiling food?

zedutchgandalf 2014-04-30 21:47

@stvr There is. Living monsters are worth very, very little (regardless of their size). Food is always worth more. And everytime you combine two pieces of food, their combined value is more than their separate values added together :)
So if you want to get a lot of points, it's always best to stockpile as much food as you can. Downside to that is that it's easier to shoot the food by accident and it's an easier target for the evil guys...

metkis 2014-04-30 23:11

A surprising amount of depth to this game, it's also really difficult. Those red dudes are so aggravating! I enjoyed it a lot.

sudorossy 2014-05-01 01:09

I found it quite easy, but unique game!

hyouko 2014-05-01 02:55

Rather hard to play with a touchpad, as it turns out. I feel like it would be good to start out with larger blocks and then work down to the smaller ones as time wears on.

munkeebacon 2014-05-01 03:20

Pretty good! Had fun playing it, nice job.

kuchalu 2014-05-01 11:25

Fun, addictive and difficult. Well done.

oddly-shaped-pixels 2014-05-01 11:26

Nice idea! A bit hard though...

epiphanyg 2014-05-01 12:58

Cute little game! My first instinct was to run around destroying everything but then moving the food was quite tough. Was much better when I stood near the beast hole and destroyed stuff close by. Quite interesting that it forces you to play different to what you'd normally expect to do.

It gets hectic very quickly though. :D

szrapnel 2014-05-01 15:45

Enemies evolving is a nice feature :)

pinktreeleaf 2014-05-01 18:54

Never got how to combine the food.

hardgrafter 2014-05-01 20:10

Fun Game! Well done!

javifugitivo 2014-05-01 23:43

Nice game!

gamertaters 2014-05-02 07:56

Challenging game. Simple and fun.

atombrot 2014-05-02 11:41

Very funny idea but it's rather hard. Could imagine that this would be very fun to play with a twin stick shooter control scheme on the gamepad.

0creds 2014-05-02 14:08

Pretty cool, but quite difficult :D I enjoyed it. Good job.

noom 2014-05-03 01:55

Tough!

makatak 2014-05-03 03:25

Nice concept, very challenging!

teampurpledolphins 2014-05-03 20:55

Cool idea but it's really hard. I think it could benefit from an easy mode where the game speed was halved or something

littleball 2014-05-03 21:58

Good, but I think I needed a proper mouse rather than a trackpad to really enjoy it. Well done.

katamori 2014-05-04 01:44

Annoying after a point, but I love it overall.

ddrkirbyisq 2014-05-04 03:57

hahaha

tuism 2014-05-04 10:15

Mechanically interesting, I really like the idea, but a few implementation problems leave it difficult and unfun to play.
1. The fact that you can shoot the food to diminish disincentivises you to shoot the red guys (or the blue guys)
2. The tinyness of the targets (food and creatures) makes it REALLY hard to get a hit or to roll them around.
3. I ended up just letting the blue guys through and killing the red guys, which got really boring after a while.
4. Needs more feedback on behaviours you want to encourage - like getting food to roll into a big one should make you feel WOOO! By providing visual feedback (juice). Maybe some kind of combo indicator.

Overall great idea that can use some polish :)

jaj 2014-05-04 12:34

I have to agree that everything was a bit too small, it was really hard to get anything done in terms of merging food. The concept is really nice, though!

sevenkingdomssurvivors 2014-05-04 16:20

Very tough game. I wish you could right-click move haha

kddekadenz 2014-05-04 23:00

It needs bigger bullets, better graphics, screen shake, recoil and better sounds. I like the idea, though!
Good thing to destroy the food when shooting on it and the enemies going to it! That allows some tactics.
As many of my arcade games this soon gets repetitive.
What helps is adding levels/waves (with upgrades, stronger enemies etc.) so you've a feeling of progress as player.

All in all this idea has great potential, but you still got a lot to learn when it comes to implementation.

calvinsm 2014-05-05 00:05

Some enemies are so little and hard to shoot. But is a great game!

wschorn 2014-05-05 12:33

wow squinty but fun

alobker 2014-05-05 16:25

Totally frustrating but fun!

snoother 2014-05-05 16:34

Shooting is a bit slow when you consider how small both the bullets and enemies are, but it nevertheless was fun. Audio works really well too.

jsmars 2014-05-06 06:19

Nice game but music got annoying quick :)

gigitrix 2014-05-06 19:18

I like the concept, I think it could use a bit of polishing though. It'd be nice if there were powerups or something. I'd prefer if the enemies were larger and tankier though, which would add incentive for weapon upgrades etc.

badlydrawnrod 2014-05-06 20:14

Simple but effective. Starts easy but ramps up the difficulty nicely after a few minutes. Good game.

mustaine 2014-05-07 05:34

So tiny. I think these sprites could be much bigger.

chuigum 2014-05-07 05:39

Like the innovation!

romandtom 2014-05-07 21:19

Cool idea :D
It was a little too hard for me.
But yet it was quite fun ;)

fullmontis 2014-05-08 13:39

The concept is great, I wish the sprites were a little bigger cause it's quite hard to have fine control when you have a hard time even seeing stuff.

jupiter_hadley 2014-05-08 21:49

Could not quite figure out the game in a min. but I liked it. I included it in part 15 of my Ludum Dare Compilation video series :) http://youtu.be/f3WpQDAZRnI

hbocao 2014-05-08 23:38

I got 222 :D
Congrats on finishing the game! Simple and kinda addictive. Good job!

martinysa0311 2014-05-09 12:18

nice game.

alvivar 2014-05-09 19:45

I like the idea. Feed something by dragging food (?) from killing things. If you add some fx, it could be an interesting arcade.

Two recommendations:
+ Make the bullet bigger.
+ Screen shake when you shoot/hit something.

badpaul34 2014-05-10 10:37

Funny little game! Would have like different levels. But it's a nice try for a 48h compo ;)

sheepolution 2014-05-10 13:39

I like the idea, but not the execution. Everything is really small, so it's very hard to see and hit stuff. The idea of pushing food in the hole is also annoying.

mark-goetz 2014-05-10 14:53

I like the combination of mechanics! There's a lot of interesting tradeoffs for what you should try to do. I did think the movement for pushing food was a little clunky, and I thought it was a little too hard to kill things, but the idea is great.

xenosns 2014-05-10 16:41

Cute game, liked the controls

joshos 2014-05-10 22:31

Nice game, music is a little bit repetitive though.

elefantopia 2014-05-11 02:58

Cute fun game! The objects may be a bit too small to aim for or to combine food, but adds to the challenge.

ninjacharlie 2014-05-11 18:45

It could have used a little bit of a steeper difficulty ramp (it was pretty easy at the beginning), but I liked the sharpshooting-in-the-crowd thing. Pretty cool. Good job :)

foodzilla 2014-05-13 04:06

Really hard... but kind of fun.

meedoc 2014-05-13 12:04

Nice game! Slow at the beginning but in the end, it becomes quite challenging!

forc_ola 2014-05-14 08:45

Hard game, but I enjoyed playing!

soy_yuma 2014-05-14 19:57

Good game! I found pushing the food around a bit hard. Maybe because the game plays in a small screen? But the idea is original :-)

aelita1992 2014-05-15 09:31

The game is still in very early development stage, some upgrades would be awesome to see. Hope you'll extend the gameplay

make-a-game 2014-05-15 20:10

So tiny and hard.
