Got stuck in an invisible wall. The woman spoke in the same voice as the man? Graphics are great, though.

Loved the Audio, pretty rare in Jams!
Nice prototype, I hope to see a full game! (:

Hah. Postal meets Mad Max? :D You tweeting how "terrible" it is lowered my expectations quite a bit I guees. Because I liked it quite a bit. Especially the talking sounds. :D

pereubu 2015-08-25 09:03

I feel bad >>>:

While there were bugs here and there (I crashed when I first talked to the woman and I also got stuck in a sea of bodies while collecting coins), I feel like the mood and feel of this game has made it my favourite game of the jam. Excellent job!

I like the part when the game is tripping balls so hard that it implodes into oblivion

mechanicmoon 2015-08-25 14:25

Nice pixel art and fabulous sound. Good job, and keep doing original games with unique gameplays ;-)

scorched 2015-08-25 15:57

The music is strongest side of the game. Also liked the "madness effect". Missed the minimap and more detailed plot)

bender 2015-08-25 20:09

That ending.
Deconstructeam you are incredible... my mind is blown... I have to lay down for a minute... I am in a half-conscious hypnotic state right now

jordinuco 2015-08-26 10:01

I spent a good time playing it, and now I feel guilty.

Congratulations for that mind-blowing use of Game Maker :D

pierrec 2015-08-28 07:03

Totally not smiling.
But this is awesome.

nowandstudios 2015-08-28 07:53

Nice pixel art and sound! Isn't that bad like you tweet!

ithildin 2015-08-29 10:09

Once you get past the bugs (I got stuck against the buildings twice at the beginning and had to restart) the game is a disturbing experience, which makes it a great match for the theme. Graphics and audio are top notch, as expected, so it is a pity that bugs got in the way. Will you attempt a post-jam version?

In any case, good job!

soulgame 2015-08-29 15:48

Craaaaazy game! I'm glad you warned me about the game content, I was better prepared for the insanity ^^ At least I didn't kill my sister, I feel kinda great about that, it's nice to have the choice. Unfortunately I stuck my super bike in the black house at the mission where I had to drive on 40 people :( Mmmh, let's restart...

Okay this time I finished. I kill my sister because I'm a freakin' monsta. Full stars for the theme, clearly :D I appreciated the psychedelic bad trip you provided.

soulgame 2015-08-29 16:04

Forgot to mention: A part for me, I think you're the first one in the world who reached the rank DRUMSTER!!! nicely done!

alxr 2015-08-30 14:43

Nice to see you again with the awesome entry! Congrats!

alxr 2015-08-30 14:51

Looking forward to see mac and web versions to play!

bodsey 2015-09-01 20:12

Are you even allowed to still compete ? XD Well I think this entry shows great potential in terms of mood, look and feel, but there are some disturbing bugs and the core gameplay itself was lacking some fun / skill involved. Anyway, it's beautiful and sounds great so congrats still

sergi-montaner 2015-09-02 21:50

Very complete game, as always!
I had a bug where npcs got scaled in Y and my character got strange rotations. Just after finishing the kill 5 people quest.

voidstar33 2015-09-07 19:02

Haaa... Awesomeness re-invented. Brilliant idea. Very cool gameplay mechanics.

xanjos 2015-09-07 20:56

Damn, that is one seriously f'd up game. Brilliant take on the theme and I love how the game's sudden glitching represents the player's current state of mind.

pirate_shell 2015-09-08 20:58

The idea for this was fantastic! I love the post-apocaliptic atmosphere and I was especially intrigued by the camera tricks. I might even implement them in some of my future projects, so great job! The gameplay was fun and a nice base for a great game! The story was nice and the trippy-ness was quite well done. A few issues, though. I repeatedly got stuck on the building. It was very annoying as I had to restart. The other thing is that the girls seamed to have the same voice as the guys. Other than that, fantastic entry!

drauthius 2015-09-09 18:38

I smiled.

blaster391 2015-09-11 15:24

Well this was an experience... I wouldn't say I "enjoyed" it. But it is a very well made, very disturbing, game

sergicollado 2015-09-11 16:41

I like graphics

kerotan24 2015-09-11 18:53

This is why i like videogames.

gertjohnny 2015-09-13 03:19

Very cool experience. I'd totally play a more fleshed out game set in this world.

manimal 2015-09-14 14:25

Interesting. I like the bike-hook.

poptartftw 2015-09-14 16:42

Nice!

humanatee_studios 2015-09-14 17:35

great work, keep it up!

plasmaernst 2015-09-14 17:39

The look and sound is very cool and builds good mood. Also thumbs for the cam/color/perception-experiment - very fitting. Sadly i got stuck in the gatehouse-sprite after the "collect coins" several times. A pitty, because id totally spent some more time in this mad world.
