oh right, gravity.
Fun game, but hard to understand at first. Maybe an automatic restart if you throw the poop and don't kill the guy would be nice.
Good point on the poop-throwing-learning-curve. No poop to throw = unable to attack! I'll add a note to the description.
fantastic entry! I feel having jump on the space button would make more usability sense than z. Other than that fantastic work!
Noo I died xD funny !
Nice job! I love the gravity-death. :)
A very well made platformer that is quite hard as well. Especially those guys who shoot through the trees, so OP!
I managed to finish the game but some levels took a few tries. The graphics / sfx / music were spot on. Well done!
Good graphics and really really good controls! So fun too haha!
very nice and funny game! love how it cartwheels before sending its poop into the air.
Thank you all for your comments and feedback! I'm glad you found it fun!
I have a love/hate relationship with this game.
Love - The general silliness of it all, the character's movement, the slow motion (wish there were more of that), the animations, the dude pissing.
Hate - SPIKES IN TREES, bullets (possibly going through trees) coming out of no where an killing you.
A fun entry that, despite my frustrations, I couldn't stop playing until I beat it.
I like how the walking people won't walk into the traps, but I don't like how they don't die from bullets (:
Still, excellent game, yes, with some more work it may have good potential as a full game. Will need more content, and perhaps divebomb pooping (: (Which is what I tried at first (: )
@zatyka - Thank you, sounds like a good (I hope) fun/frustration mix!? I'm pleased you stuck it out and beat it!
@Truck - LOL, divebomb pooping! If only I had thought of that 36 hours ago...
Enjoyed a lot the game xD, but traps were really bitchy :P
Nice work :D
Great game. Good gameplay and graphics. I really like the way you did the climbing.
Fun game! Nice job!
The art in this game is really unique. The menu text is a little hard to read(light green on slightly less light green) but once you get in the game its really a really interesting world to look at. The climbing and running control is well done although I kind of wish I didn't die when I jump out of the tree. There certainly isn't enough pooping in slow motion games out there and at this time I think you have that **** on lockdown.
Hehe, what a game. Definitely an unconventional weapon. I'm digging the drum-n-bass funk music, and I really liked how smooth the climbing mechanic feels. Nice one.
Odd that when a gorilla jumps on some guy's head the gorilla explodes in a shower of blood.
Ebola. Must have been ebola.
Great graphics. Interesting theme. Bit brutal in the difficulty just starting out.
Good game ,,, but dear Lord,, poor monkey
Ha - yes! Gorilla death options became just from a selection of one because of the time limit. I had started animating a tourist knife attack v gorilla but it just became too much so I cut my losses....
Love how the monkey climbs! And the slow-motion on level 1 was a nice touch.
Really great entry. Well done. Super fun and fairly tight controls. Good job!
Cool entry, I enjoyed the slo-mo poop kills. There was something really satisfying about running up trees too, kept doing it over and over
Frustrating, that's what I really take on this game.
The controls felt a bit "moon-like" at times, with a strange momentum that did not make sense.
Spikes in trees and on the ground :/
Why can't I move around the tree trunk when bullets can go through it from anywhere ?
Also why touching a hunter makes it so that I must die the next time I hit the ground/a platform/branch ? This does not make sense to me and adds to the overall frustration.
I like the idea of throwing poop, the "monkey business" joke and theme, it's all nice, but I believe the game would have been better if more accessible/fair. At least I know I would have enjoyed it far more.
Good job doing a game in 48 hours nonetheless !
@Kyatric - I know, I just ran out of time to make a human-kills-gorilla animation. Maybe next time I won't get beaten by the time limit...
Great game. Nice artwork and smooth controls. Felt very polished, except for a few minor bugs. (Got some random freezes for a few seconds a few times)
It's so funny haha. The game feel is solid. The climbing mechanics fits the gorilla.
just eatn and shitn, love the tree climbing mechanic.
Very funny game, asking for a bit of adaptation first for the controls, but then letting you do what you do best as a monkey easily ;)
The idle animation is awesome x)
Nice control system, graphics, audio, learning curve and animations. Also, acrobatic pooping! Nothing to fault here. :)
Well... it's a pooping gorila... What can I say! Nice climbing mecanics!
Wow, really liked that one.
Nice climbing and overall feel to the monkey controls.
Also absolutely the best interpretation of the theme ;) (why? Because that's what I did too - right down to eating bananas to gain more poo :) )
And: Wow, humans and also poo are way more deadly than I thought :)
Great game. Good graphics and sounds. Good job!
