Looks cool but A. I'm on mac, and B. no 360 controller.

Would of loved to of player it, looks very interesting, but I don't have a controller.

I had a controller with me for my game, and I'm super gald to have played this a little.

Had to dig through my drawers to find my 360 controller for this.

I absolutely love the twin stick punch system, reminds me of that boxing game on Wii fit. It would be much better with sound and some element of challenge to it though.

Fun little toy! I had a good laugh when I realized the mechanic and it was very cathartic to play around with. If you have a controller and a windows computer available, it's worth the download and a bit of your time.

Quite fun. Good stress relief after crunching to get my game done all weekend, so thanks for that. My one complaint is sometimes my punches didn't quite feel like they were going where I was aiming them, so I found it hard to do strange things like knock the lamp over. I would suggest maybe using a raycast to predict where the punch will land and drawing a cursor there, instead of just drawing it on the screen. Overall, a seriously good stress relief physics toy. Fortunately I still had my 360 pad out from testing my game :P

Haha! Nice work. And nice graphics considering you just used primitives and plane colors!

skyboy49707 2014-12-08 05:47

Looks like a fun game but I don't have a controller :(

Glad I plugged in my controller. I love games where you just smash stuff, next time make it a zip and not a rar, just easier that way. Also everyone needs to have a 360 controller, there so cool!

unable to dl.....

catchthefloaty 2014-12-08 07:19

nvm.... looks like dropbox just died entirely. go LD!

gaga 2014-12-08 07:32

Thanks for all the good feedback

benmcnelly 2014-12-08 07:37

Heh, luckily I had mah 360 controller layin' round. This was fun. give me a punching physics things around sandbox and watch my day go bye bye. Nice job!

ajopart 2014-12-08 20:29

Nice tech demo.

biliogadafr 2014-12-08 20:38

Hilarious:). I had xbox360 and that was fun. Probably vibration feedback would improve the overall feeling :)

mintarcade 2014-12-09 00:14

Nice! I have a feeling that you was not entirely happy with the jam theme, but work your way out :D

thatnaughtypanda 2014-12-09 00:15

I do have a 360 controller, and I won by pulling the TV in and hugging it.
10/10 I genuinely love this

gaga 2014-12-09 00:17

Rumble ofc, great idea.
Probably wouldn't have taken too long to make.
Wish I thought of that :D

derosa 2014-12-09 00:18

Very funny game. I enjoyed punching everything around. A pity there was not much things to destroy, but at least restarting was easy.

headmade 2014-12-09 00:20

I like the physics and art style.
But I didn't hear any sounds which is a shame because that would have added a lot.

tmpxyz 2014-12-09 00:21

the simulation and joint are done well...

eerongal 2014-12-09 02:32

Luckily i have a 360 controller to play it, but that probably wasnt the best choice considering how the comments are looking. Neat little game, though! Good work!

silentnight 2014-12-09 04:18

Really cool use of the theme. I liked the graphics. Wish there were other ways besides a controller to play it though.

tater_hater 2014-12-10 00:02

We played your game in our first LD game review!

Loved it

dieblume86 2014-12-10 11:02

Nice start

sanguine 2014-12-10 11:09

Really felt like a playground, which was cool :) I would like some more variation (maybe more interesting physics objects to play with), but I had fun while it lasted.

alvarop 2014-12-11 01:58

It's a very cool toy. Do you have any ideas on how to bring some more gameplay / challenges into it?

loonofnature 2014-12-11 02:00

Table flip to victory! (╯°□°)╯︵ ┻━┻)

mrmordem 2014-12-11 02:01

Maybe a good game, but i don't have a 360 controllers :'(

meral 2014-12-13 09:48

With sound and more levels I would definitely pay for this. I love physics destruction games and sandboxes. The field you can put your arms around feels a little too restricted. I would have liked to be able to flail them around on the whole viewable screen. Precision shouldn't be an issue with a XBox 360 controller.

This is fantastic. Smashing the lamp around with the dynamic lighting is gold for me.

meral 2014-12-13 09:51

Oh, two things I forgot. First: The download from DropBox took ages for me, despite it being only a 8MB Archive. Second: Very well use of physics primitives! I assume that's why the performance is so solid too.

hempuli 2014-12-22 19:52

I don't have a controller :(

maxmetallica 2014-12-29 22:03

nice work
