I like the graphics, messy yet great!
You really should warn people not to go in that cave. :)
Fun game. This is something that could really be expanded upon. I really like the graphics style, and the signs are funny (they kind of remind me of the Sign Painter from World of Goo).
I keep getting stuck when I try to jump over the dog thing on the 2nd screen.
le image du critique malade !!! i liked this "image of messy things" great !
Fun signs!
So cool!
I got stuck in the cave......but probably shouldn't have gone in to be fair...
really nice graphics. keep working on this!
I've got stuck in the second dog :( I wanted to see the cave!
The music didn't go very well with the game, but other than that it was good! Nice work!
1. I fixed the glitch that made you get stuck in the cave
2. The cave is where the game gets fun, so don't quit the first time you die from a LEOPARD.
3. It is a Leopard, not a dog :p
4. The easiest ways to kill the leopards, is to snipe them down from above.
5. DON'T GO IN THE CAVE!!!
crashed in the forth area.
I throw too many spears away on accident :(
But nice scary mood here.
The trees and vines and stuff are really pretty. Please make the signs disappear! I keep throwing my spear off screen trying to dismiss them.
Windows link is the same as the Web link and you haven't included the source code, which is stated in the rules you must do if you are entering the compo. Sorry to be an arse.
The game looks pretty, with very nice vine physics, but I think some of the effort that went into the vines should've gone into the polish. I can throw my spears through the floor and lose them and I can get stuck on the ceiling if I jump into it.
Very nice and solid entry! I loved the spear mechanic.
Cool game, but there are a lot of bugs, some times the player get stuck in the walls, when you go back in the room you don't appear in the place you had entry.
But overall, it is a nice entry with a surprising end.
Nice game, but needs some bugfixing. Sometimes the player enters the wall xD
Good luck with your game ;)

I linked the source, I had been holding it off, cuz I always have problems with it (And I did).
The web and download are the same because I'm just place holding the web until I can get the web to work.
Love the graphics and the overall feel of the game. Also very humourous. Could be a bit more polished programming wise. On my second run I coundn't die and had several collision bugs.
I got stuck in the cave! My spear fell through the ground to the bottom of the screen and I couldn't collect it.
Shouldn't have gone into the cave!! Good work!
Okay, this is totally subjective, but I personally didn't have much fun with the game because I never was sure whether something was a glitch or supposed to be that way. I killed an animal with what looked like a fence of 10 spears at once and clicked it until it was gone. When I went into the cave (first thing to do, of course!) I found there two spears but once they glitched to the floor after first use, I pretty much had to restart the game. Also, the survival mechanics don't seem to work for me, because no matter what the values said, I didn't experience anything different about the game.
The dangling vines in the scenery are real nice but I didn't find any use for them, but I am pretty sure I was missing something.
So once I made it into the cave and to some black hole spewing blocky heads at me, I was stuck pretty much. I managed to get a spear from each pile of oranges on either side but I couldn't use them after just one attempt because they were on the bottom of the screen. Also the music was kinda repetitive.
Again, this is just my personal opinion, and apparently i am the only one who had no fun playing the game. I respect that you put a lot of work into it, but I was just confused and annoyed by it. Also, I was missing any Unconventional Weapon, sorry.
This was neat! I liked the bongo music, and throwing the spears was surprisingly fun! I made it all the way to the end and had fun the whole way.
This is so cool !
Funny signs, great idea, I enjoyed playing.

The glitches really hurt the game, I tried my hardest to fix as many as I could, But I ran out of time. The glitches are a major let down of the game, I agree. I spent too much time on trying to give the game a good appeal, that I didn't have time to fix the glitches, and I have learned to never to that again. The unconventional weapon is the spear, because in this age, that is not a normal weapon. I was planning on adding Meat weapons and scorpion swords, but I didn't have enough time.
I respect your opinion, and I sorta agree. The glitches are a massive let down, But try to remember, I had less than 48 hours to make this game.
Thankyou for your long and detailed review and thankyou for sharing your experience with the game. I've learned a lot of what to do and what not to do this LD.
Pretty cool! I really like the music; I know that's something you enjoy creating. The graphics fit the game's style nicely. The story is kind of creepy, as I'm sure it's supposed to be. There were a few glitches; you can stick to walls/ceiling, and somehow I didn't die when my health was -450%. The boss fight was fun, but it could have been a little bit more challenging. A pretty solid entry altogether. 3/5
The game was very interesting but the spears are entering in the walls.
Liked the game, it felt funny and that was perfect, however I kept losing my spear in the ground due to a bug :/ Graphic style was nice however!
The idea is nice, but doesn't seem to fit too well with the theme. The graphics are messy, and the game has lots of tiny glitches. :/ I liked the music, though! :D
Love the feel of this. very solid foundation. Clean it up a bit and it will be a very interesting game.
crashed multiple time, threw away my spears while trying to do something else multiple time, muted the game because the footsteps were annoying.
Nice Entry, I really enjoyed the song (I see that you are a dubstep producer, and it shows!). The game idea is nice (spear throwing), but the game suffers from several bugs (I finished the cave level with -50% of energy, I launched the spear through a zombie and it did'nt kill it, but then he walked on a spear on the floor and died instantly), although it didn't prevent me from actually having a lot of fun completing it - so congrats for your game.
P.S.: Next time, please think of non-QWERTY keyboard users: http://ludumdare.com/compo/2015/04/24/why-z-is-a-bad-action-key/
I thought it was fun. Music was good!
i got stuck in the air in the 3rd screen. also, dude, grammar o.o
I think it would have been lightyears better with a "hit" boolean. You could have had "when collided with enemy, If hit is false, set hit to true. After 0.5 seconds, set hit to false". That way it wouldn't be instant death whenever something touches you. Otherwise, it was neat what you attempted with the bushes and carcasses.
Oppressive - like the music :)
