nice graphics and audio nice game also good job!
Love the humor and concept! Gameplay was a bit glitchy!
Good work! (:
Godamn, this is so cute. Awesome art and sound. Got stuck pretty early on, but it's still a fantastic entry :D
Really solid art and audio. Controls felt good. Thoroughly enjoyed the playing as "twump" :)
My little billionaire can't be this cute! Fun art, great music, and loved the little Twump when he's trying to pluck items. :) Stacking blocks can be a bit cumbersome and sometimes blocks fall underneath other blocks. :( Very cool overall still!
I got stuck walking into a wall.
Lol shots fired with this one haha. Great execution as usual, other than a few physics bugs with stacking boxes, this game was absolutely great.
really great art
hahaha! Funny game. I loved discovering that he can jump onto of people, and even pick them up and throw them. That's Trump alright. Well done. Please check out my Trump-based game too: http://ludumdare.com/compo/ludum-dare-33/?action=preview&uid=45696
Super ;). I loved the metaphorical aspect, how Twump can get trapped under bags of money in a corner and have to restart. Also, for the record, I'm terrible at games.
2cute4me, I'm not familiar with politics so maybe I'm missing some stuff but the game is pretty fun and the graphics and sounds are awesome, great job m8 ୧( ʘ ͜◺ʘ)୨
I really like your game! It has great music and graphics! And the story is super fun! Only thing was that in the room with the boxes and stones I didn't get any further because I was to dump to build a stair with the rocks.. One time they fell into each other. But except from tha your game was awesome and a lot of fun!!!
Cute- reminded me of Krusty's Super Funhouse for Sega Genesis! I think the first screen should say "press X" for people with a keyboard though. Pressing A didn't do anything.
I am so impressed by the level design O_O like, some people really know their stuff around here
Awesome game! The level design is carefully thought-out, and so much fun! Also, Twump is unexpectedly adorable. The music and sound is reminding me of Super Mario Land 2 right now. Great game, unique and beautiful!
I think most of my game glitched out at some point, then I got to the helicopter and couldn't leave, then my controls got stuck and I walked off the side and went off the map and I won? 10/10
Cute graphics! :D
YOU ARE THE MONSTER! I just got it. Now I feel like I can forgive you for making Trump look so cute. Loved the art style and the audio, and the game was fun too!
Hey Will, your game looks fantastic and I didn't expect any less from you! However, I glitched a bit too often through floors and blocks making the gameplay a bit messy. There isn't really any reason to pick up all the coins (just a little end score thing when you finished the game would already help) and the timer didn't do much too I think? Why is it there? I was a bit confused by the amount of controls too, I know that sounds silly but let me explain. You use the arrow keys and Z and X and you can walk, jump, pick-up and throw stuff. Why did you choose to use 6 buttons for just 4 actions? I mean, you could've set jump on up arrow key and pick-up on down arrow key. Now throwing with down maybe would be a bit weird, maybe one other key then :p Anyways I only found out about picking-up/throwing after a few minutes because I read the controls here on the page to make sure. I didn't really felt intuitive to me.
Okay so, that was a bit of critique, but I still think you did a realy good job :)
Amusing little game. I did get stuck under a block somehow, but it was a fun diversion while it lasted.
Beautiful game! I included it in part 8 of my Ludum Dare 33 Compilation video series, if you would like to take a look :) https://youtu.be/tto3rRaLBXQ
Amazing gameplay, feel, mechanics, soundtrack, setting, humour, and everything!
The only issue (quite a significant one) is that the controls seem to get stuck all the time. At one point I found myself completely unable to move and had to mash keys for 20 seconds to free myself.
There were also a few physics bugs (people floating in the sky) but that's to be expected given the really flexible block sliding mechanics :)
Great work, as always.
Hey I was wondering if you had participated! :D
Great game, I love the art and music and the gameplay is pretty cool! I just don't really understand why there's a "charge" time for picking up objects.
Also it took me a little while to get the "propel yourself upward" mechanic but it's a nice one!
I had a few collision bugs too: overlapping enemy soldiers, and brick blocks sinking through the floor when trying to pile them up high (although maybe that's intended, so we have to use the propelling mechanic?)
Anyway, great work, congrats!
Neat little platformer. The graphics are nice and everything's polished pretty well.
I think the most obvious issue are with the physics: boxes falling through other boxes, boxes falling into other boxes, et cetera. There was one scenario where I had three boxes stuck in each other and I couldn't separate them.
I found the enemies to be a bit tricky to deal with. Their jumping combined with their periodic shooting can cause some annoying scenarios, especially when you're waiting for their bullet to pass but jumping means they're going to jump but it's too difficult to tell whether or not their next shot will occur during that jump.
Also, the coin hitboxes seem to be incredibly small. Typically, the norm is to have pickups have large hitboxes and hazards have smaller ones. I'm sure you're aware of that.
Nonetheless, I beat it and enjoyed it. Nice job.
Totally amazing visual style and music. Oh, and the game's also good. One of the best jam entries I've played this far.
Cute graphics and awesome sounds :) At first I didn't understand some of the mechanics but after some tries I got the hang of it :P
Nice and cute! The sounds and the use of colors are my favorites!
Amazing graphics and music/sound. Really reminded me of something but I can't put my finger on it...
Anyway, great entry! Thought it was excellent overall.
Great graphics and awesome polish!! Megaman 2's intro homage was really nice. :)
I really liked the song at first, but it soon got quite repetitive...
I also noticed that the collision was somewhat buggy, at times... so I just had to try to do this:

Great game! I had tons of fun (even if not playing it properly... XD)
8/8
Nice graphics and audio. Good job!
Graphics and audio are really cool. I had some problems with the physics though. Stacking more than 3 stones made the lowest one warp through the floor.
Also "Press [A] you degenerate" made me almost quit the game, because it was actually X. Not everybody has a controller ;-)
The color palette is really well choosen. The music is awesome, you managed to create a great mood :) That was really fun to play! Good work!
Fun simple. great art, music, and gameplay.
I got to the top, took around 6:30 (after a few playthroughs)! Pretty funny. Love the intro haha. Once I figured out I could throw stuff (but not brick blocks) at the soldiers it got a bit easier.
I ran into the boxes falling through each other as well. In that room I couldn't stack 4 of them on top of each other, but then I was able to propel myself up by throwing the 4th block down while jumping. It seems to be a thing with flixel (not sure if this was the case for you but I found if I use velocity verses x/y the collisions are more consistent, since x/y might push it past the bounding box?).
Beautiful pixel art! The music fits well with it also. Fun little game. :)
The gameplay and graphics remembers me some old games like Rick Dangerous. Good work.
Amazing graphcis and audio, the mechanics weren't as good. We can easily get stuck and have to restart the whole level. Good job on the cute aesthetics nonehtless.
Neat game, Nice pixel art and audio also.
Great game! In your interest take the game down if the election results go in a particular direction :P
Pixel art and color schemes are fantastic! The collisions are great, but gameplay needs a little tweaking. Solid entry for the jam duration! I look forward to a full version :)
Great retro music and sounds. I Got stuck after about 4 minutes and couldn't climb anymore. Game mechanics are really polished, like pushing a block to the left or right by 1 pixel to be able to jump. Wasn't sure what to do though
Pretty nice, the timer, money counter and general jank beg for speedruns. Of which I streamed some of.
Nice graphics. It felt very polished to play. Reminded me a bit about the old Blues Brothers platform game, but that may just be be drawing weird parallels :P Good job!
Really cool idea. I love "Twump" being the monster. :3 Good job!
Reminds me a bit of Rescue Rangers. Played it with a controller which was much more pleasant than with a keyboard. I like it.
Donald Dump.
Excellent visuals ! Very good job on spriting and polish overall, but i have a lot of troubles with controls and collision. It seems not to react exactly the same way with keyboard and gamepad, and collision + carrying bugs makes this really unbeatable for me :/ Too bad graphics were really goodlooking and it has a nice mood !
Great polished entry with nice use of the theme. Did get stuck up high when I couldn't make a ledge high above, tried building a platform with the rocks but they kept going through the ground when I'd get them three up.
nice graphics
One of the best entries I've seen, I really like how the gameplay supports the implied narrative (ex. standing on people to reach the top of your tower).
The physics are a bit buggy, but that should be easy enough to fix. I'd consider tuning the controls if you want to keep working on this, I was never really sure what I'd throw and/or where it would go.
The artistic consistency was another high point of this game. Well made music, sounds, and graphics (and animations) that all fit within a retro style. Thanks for making this!
Awesome game! The art is just stunning!
Awesome job! Perfect 5 star graphics. Really funny as well. This was really fun too, really loved the look and audio!
Absolutely charming art and music. I had some problems with the controls but I can't stay mad at this game.
Adorable and polished art, although I struggled with the controls I'm afraid to say. I saw from the screenshots that you could pick up the safe, so I tried to do that and it ended up somehow getting pushed right until it was outside of the playable area. No idea what was going on. I therefore got stuck in the little little bit where the safe was because i couldn't jump out. If only I'd just left it alone!
Still, this is a really solid entry. Did I mention how amazing your pixel art is?
I know I tweeted you about this but I'll put this here. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pEMjSiVtfDI
Controls were very hard to get used to unfortunately. I felt they let the game down, as it seemed really awesome.
Nice job, great graphics
When I read I was Twump, I smiled and became curious. When I tried to pick up a computer, a block, or a person, I felt confused.
Honorary award for catchiest music track in a LD game, this is a very colourful game for such a topical storyline. Music is really catchy and I love the Megaman approach.
Only real complaint is with picking stuff up and throwing it. I got to an impassible point because I was trying to stack up blocks to reach a platform, but they kept merging into each other and I had no way to separate them.
- opening is amazing
- great concept, good to see ludum dare used for political commentary ;)
- music is pretty good but gets a bit repetitive
- pixel art looks great, twump's sprite is awesome
- great nes nostalgia, reminded me a bit of chip and dale rescue rangers
- for some reason my 360 controller isn't working with it
- cool effect for screen transitions
- physics got a big glitch with boxes getting pushed into eachother, maybe you could turn up the physics iterations or something
- I feel like I'm stuck in the room with stars on the wall and a bunch of blocks, I can't seem to stack them more then 2 high
The game is extremely cute, I find it amazingly cute. Not being a North American I can judge the game without a shread of political alignment. It is a fun game, reminds me a lot of those GBC/GBA classics, with a hint of Megaman and also Doki Doki Panic. Agile, very good sprite art, and joking about a politician being crazy never gets old... But I think personally one has to be really truly a die-hard democrat to call Trump a monster. That he sounds like an idiot at times it is a secret to nobody, but still not a monster per see. Still the game overflows with cuteness, of a kind you don't see in many modern games, indie or AAA.
The graphics and sound were absolutely fantastic. The platforming felt solid with one or two slight mishaps while picking things up, but overall it felt incredibly polished for a jam game!

The art style, the music, the game itself is just lovely :)
Very colorful, amusing and i can see so much in it. Just love the product! :)
Controls were a bit weird on the other side, i didn't figure at first that i had to push at the same time C and down to pick up something while i just could press down only.
I didn't play with the WASD scheme because it is weird to not use the W to jump and instead the X.
It plays better with directional arrows configuration.
Well done! :)
Great game, nice graphics and wonderful music!
Nice game but a little to much repetitive.
Graphics and music are good.
Pretty cool game. The music was beepy and repetitive but really that's my only complaint, aside from very glitchy box physics (I almost got completely stuck at one point because of overlapping boxes)
The music really reminds me of Robopon 2 for the GBA-- check it out, it's oddly familiar.
I really love this game! Great choice of theme, by the way. ;)
Controls are pretty good, but I got power ups stuck in the wall a few times. Overall great game!
Very fun game. Like everyone else says, good job on level design. All graphics and sound are coherent, everything fits together nicely. It actually took me a little while to figure out how to pick up objects (I was not aware that you had to hold down while on top of the object). The end gets fairly challenging, and I ran into a sound effect spam bug whilst trying to pick up a soldier. The aesthetics of this game are incredible, and the music is unbelievable. This was a mind-blowing entry, I really want to see someone speedrun this! Well done overall!
Brilliant use of the theme. Really well done, except i got stuck numerous times under a block and had to restart.
Why are these soldiers shooting at me? Get out of my tower, you're fired!!
Seriously, fun game with cute graphics and great music. I did have a bit of trouble with getting stuck on and under things though.
The graphics and music were very very charming. The idea was clever and quite relevant to today's times. It was quite amusing to see Not-Trump TRUMP on some peoples' heads. The only issue I found was that the controls would often get stuck. So if I was moving right it would get stuck moving right, etc. Might be an issue on my end, though.
I keep expecting the Megaman 2 theme music every time I watch that intro. I nice elaboration of Super Mario Bros. 2. Found it neat that each different item you can pickup has different throw effect, though I found the controls to pick things up a bit cumbersome. Who knew Donald Twump did a ton of bench presses?
As mentioned by many, I did find the glitchy physics unappealing, and many coins sections left me scratching my head. The game might also be on the easy side, too. It was enjoyable, though, and I did have a good snort with the story.
Cute and fun. I like the pick up and smash mechanic. Game started to stutter a little for me after playing for a while. Great entry. Was really hoping for some sort of hair attack though :/
Fun little platformer, I liked the ways you could use the boxes and enemies and everything!
