what a good game!!!

okkolobr 2014-12-08 09:24

Loved how you take on the theme ! Nice simple game, well done !

donan 2014-12-08 10:36

Hahahaha, nice concept :)

sanojian 2014-12-08 10:48

Pretty clever. Staying on the right is much easier than the left. Good job!

groydis 2014-12-08 11:39

Great interpretation of theme, fun simple game. Well done.

geeitsomelaldy 2014-12-08 12:50

I liked it. Controls could have been tighter though.

anokta 2014-12-08 13:07

hahaha, very well fit to the theme!

p1x3lruckus 2014-12-08 13:12

Ahh, I'm running on Safari and it doesn't except input, making the game un-runnable for me I guess.

occamsrazor 2014-12-08 13:54

Very nice. Good interpretation of the theme, nice and simple. I liked it! And great music too.

sprawl 2014-12-08 13:55

Simple gameplay but great idea !

Sure took a lot of people to come up with that ;)

tomvert 2014-12-08 14:47

Very funny !

swedishbacon 2014-12-08 15:06

Its fun! :)

nobuyoshi 2014-12-08 19:06

It's fun!
But, it would be nice if it show a retry button when you lose.

oldpeculier 2014-12-08 21:48

All right that's clever. Pretty fun, but very funny.

norgg 2014-12-08 22:26

Those names. Those beautiful, awful Simpsons prank call names. Had to complete it to groan at them all. Got 54.

andrewkennedy 2014-12-09 00:00

I couldn't make it to the bottom - I kept losing by reading all of the names. It might not be everyone's kind of humor, but it's definitely my kind :)

Fun game overall, good job!

rantt 2014-12-09 01:45

Had to try that a few times to win. Kept dying reading the names...lol. Fun game, I really enjoyed it, great job :)

tosic 2014-12-09 08:37

Very nice and innovative game - good work, man :D!

kirbytails7 2014-12-09 08:44

Cheeky, and I love the punny names.

kruemelkeksfan 2014-12-09 18:21

Great :)

thingostudios 2014-12-10 03:44

I recently discovered that you can look up games by their creator's username; the moment I figured this out, I immediately searched for your game after fond memories of "Coal Not Dole."

I was not disappointed! The core concept is simple enough, but the real reason to play this name is to see one hundred awful/hilarious name puns in one minute. (Somewhere in heaven, Tom Magliozzi is laughing much too hard.) It's a really great central concept if you ever want to expand this into a full game, too-- there's a lot you could do with a game that takes place exclusively within the credits of a video game.

xgeovanni 2014-12-10 18:00

Please release a Linux version. Unity Web Player doesn't work on Linux.

tritegames 2014-12-10 20:14

Funny and clever approach :D And it plays pretty well. The jump could be improved so that you have control over the height, but other than that good job :)

badlydrawnrod 2014-12-11 17:02

@Thingo Studios ha ha - glad you liked it. I've been saving some of those up for years. Being from the UK I hadn't heard of Tom Magliozzi before but I did a bit of research and found some of his puns. Excellent stuff!

@xgeovanni I've released a Linux build. I don't have a way of testing it, so please let me know if it works.

01rafael 2014-12-11 21:43

Super! Not really variety gameplay but looks funny :)

tuism 2014-12-11 21:44

Loooooove the idea! The execution is, well, good enough, but I feel like I want a little bit more from the gag :)

But a good one nonetheless on creative :)

fede3751 2014-12-11 21:46

You got some pretty cool music there! :)
Was nice to play!^^

zanzlanz 2014-12-11 22:21

Very clever idea! I think you should take the idea and expand it into a polished game :) maybe it could be more arcade-y!
Anyway, great job ;D!

adventureislands 2014-12-11 23:07

Hilarious game, I had to keep playing just to get to see all the punny names. Brilliant.

This could be better if you could better control your jump, but this was really solid entry regardless.

oscarabraham 2014-12-11 23:45

Really funny. The mechanics of this game are really similar to mine :).

otrorainteractivo 2014-12-12 01:40

Very fun game. Not much gameplay but it is just fun to read the names. Maybe some characters animations would help the feels. Other than that, pretty creative.

thopis 2014-12-12 09:35

Very original!Kept playing for a while!Good job!

xgeovanni 2014-12-12 18:47

The game was a little bit hard because I kept getting distracted trying to read the names. The best was "Richard Head".

badlydrawnrod 2014-12-12 22:03

@xgeovanni thanks for trying it. Glad the Linux build works.

My dad claims that he went to school with Richard Head. Maybe it didn't mean the same back then.

rjhelms 2014-12-13 19:02

Haha, this is really delightful. Good fun simple gameplay with a really funny concept - loved the names!

cliffracerx 2014-12-13 19:11

Really funny use of the theme, even if the game can be infuriatingly hard. Nicely done. :D

Audio could use some work though.

el-pepi 2014-12-13 19:15

Fun and simple. I wish you had made some animations. Also it's pretty easy.

infectionteam 2014-12-13 20:34

Brilliant idea! Wasn't paying much attention to the names at first, but Lance Boyle caught my eye haha.
Some stick guy animations would have been neat.

pulsartronic 2014-12-14 19:03

jeje, very challenging, it seems easy at first, but it isn't ... :D ... i kept losing over and over ... where did you get that infinite credits list ? :D good job ... high rated on innovation and fun

snicklodocus 2014-12-14 22:44

Great use of the theme. Controls were smooth and easy to use. Good job!

oh_andrej 2014-12-17 17:58

Great idea! :D
Gameplay is fun and actually quite challenging at times since you're not allowed to go off-screen. Simple mechanics but great fun!

If you're a fan of puns this game will be an even bigger challenge since you'll be playing while trying to read all the names :P

dunin 2014-12-22 17:06

What a staff on this game!
funny idea.

garygreen 2014-12-22 22:30

Some good puns in there. :-)
