Fun game, but really hard. Didn't understand how to eat at the beginning. Realized after a while that you have to grab a human and then use C to consume them. An indication that you need to hold a human when trying to eat would be cool.
Otherwise really good game!

no web/osx :(

Cool game! and a nice croc monster.
Didnt figure out how to eat :/ and i wish it had some sounds

Do the footprints have any meaning? Like villagers following them? I liked it a lot, it was fun destroying village after village. But I did not have any music or audio and at the end it was kind of laggy when there were thousands of soldier. Anyway, thx for the game!

A simple and nice game, maybe a bit unambitious and straightforward about the theme. It would probably benefit from more building types, and maybe some advance defence features, like archer/mage towers etc.

That was so much fun! I kept playing to the very end. The music matches the mood, the sound effects are great, and the devastation is limitless MUAHHAHA! I don't know how you made such a fun game in so little time, but hats off to you. Very well done. If I were to nitpick though, I would say that it would be awesome to have a few bigger rocks to throw and maybe a target line so you can tell where you will throw. Otherwise it's perfect.

I got messed up with controls. and attacking with B was a bit glitchy

fafastudio 2015-08-25 20:18

The v + c mash combo seemed to work at first, but i died later xD
Well done, guys =)

jaywoody 2015-08-25 20:19

Nice little game. I liked the fact that you could thrash the buildings and throw people into them. Also the footprints were a nice touch!

Nice entry you have here!

loubyrd 2015-08-25 20:44

Lovely! I was surprised about how much fun I had!
Really liked the grabbing and throwing things.
I read comments about music. Here it was all mute. :T

danidre14 2015-08-25 20:47

Nice game. Wish it had sound though. It took a while to figure out how to eat though, but nice entry.

To those that cant experience the sounds/music. This could be a problem with OpenAL, try updating OpenAL on your computer:

https://www.openal.org/downloads/oalinst.zip

Otherwise make a shortcut to the .exe, right click on the shortcut and go to properties, in Target add [ debug] without brackets to get a debug console. If there is any error messages please post them.

Fun game! Had a blast.

I LOVED this game, overall it wasn't really what I'd call innovative but SO MUCH FUN when it comes to play, it has a difficult edge but you just attack a village then go find some defenceless villagers to munch up when you're about to die and as you progress it becomes REALLY hard but really fun. I loved the art style and the lighting and the audio was great (especially the voices and screams) which overall set an excellent mood. Excellent job guys, this entry is great!

gilborn 2015-08-26 18:52

Very good animations, cool concept with grab & eat. Sadly sounnd didn t run on my PC.

ali312 2015-08-27 17:19

Good game, but i'm really need some audio during the game

hotboxgames 2015-08-28 19:41

A terribly satisfying game once I got the hang of it, although I found the best way to kill all of the enemies was to round them up all close together by circling them and then spamming V to grab/throw them all really fast, by time you've thrown 10 enemies you've only taken 2 hits of damage because of the invulnerability timer.

Other than that, good job! I had no issues playing the game and it was very enjoyable to be KRAGZHOR.

lukbebalduke 2015-08-29 18:44

Cool gameplay and smooth animations of moving/attacking. I really liked the art style and that "unstoppable" feeling =)

kaiseangames 2015-08-29 21:24

Very nice game. A minimap would be great :)

nowandstudios 2015-08-30 11:42

wow we have a really cool game here! I love the animations and all this little people runing frightened. Love need to grab to ear. Congrats!

poopmaister6000 2015-08-31 12:10

Wow...

I'm in complete awe as to how anyone can make such a bad game. It's bad enough that the controls are overly complicated, but you have to guess how to get to the menu where the controls are revealed. When you finally learn how to play this "game", the hitboxes are so, so, so off. It is

IMPOSSIBLE

to tell where, in the mess that is the hit animation, the attack actually reaches.

Even if you overlook these extremely evident flaws, the game itself is more generic than spaghetti and meatballs. I'm Jack Nicholson.

I always try to see something positive in these types of games. I get it, you're young, you're trying to develop, but you are just so incredibly off. I can't think of anything positive in this pool of mismatched lines of code you have the audacity to call a game.

Re-think, re-imagine and do some serious soul searching. This is not the path you want to head down. Either that or consider a career in information systems, because this is just not good enough by any standards.

Wasn't sure how to eat, but throwing rocks and clawing villagers was a lot of fun!

stevenjmiller 2015-08-31 20:23

Really good, probably played it for like an hour and a half. I got 2060 kills my last try but stopped because it was getting hard to find enemies. Super fun.

louspirit 2015-09-01 23:03

Badass character and nice gameplay, good job! I also loved the way that the armies were running toward me in synchro.

crucknuk 2015-09-02 17:18

Audio is not working on my computer :/ (yes, my headphone is pluged in ><'). Anyway, nice entry!

bossmojoman 2015-09-02 17:58

Nice job, nice difficulty curve, fun gameplay. May have been better with mouse support for throwing things. Awesome game!

dkoding 2015-09-02 19:08

Was there audio at all? I heard nothing... Cool monster, liked the footprints and the splatter. Kinda reminds me of my own LD33 game :-)

puppetmaster 2015-09-02 19:13

Cool and creepy game! Loved to be a part of the murder! Nice entry!

demy 2015-09-02 19:20

Nice level design. Real roman formation of the armies =)

puppetmaster 2015-09-02 19:24

Upps!! Last comment is not for this game :-)

It's feel like you are a monster!! Cool, you can trow humans!! You can not aim so good, perhaps it need to be like that. Very cool game!

jakob37 2015-09-05 08:46

Nice, liked it a lot! Didn't understand the eating the first way around, but when I got the hang of that and the stone-throwing it really took of. A satisfying game.

Spotline 2015-09-05 15:24

Fun to play, i liked the monster and audio works really well

seconddimension 2015-09-06 10:13

It's a good fun entry, not the most interesting use of the theme but you've clearly focused on making it entertaining. Lining up a group of knights and launching a rock through them was great!

quij 2015-09-07 19:12

Loved it!

Great art and animation, great audio feedback (smashing buildings reminded me of the Rampage games). Very well polished - solid, no bugs or glitches to be found.

It was very satisfying lining up a swarm of enemies and seeing how many I could get with one rock.

The throwing did take some getting used to, since KRAGZHOR's a lefty! I guess I was expecting the thrown rocks to be center-aligned with the player's sprite, though I'm not sure how you could make that look natural.

I never did figure out how to eat, but I'd say that just made it more intense/enjoyable towards the end. I reached the end with only a sliver of health, kiting an entire army!
Speaking of the end, you should put in some kind of formal ending. Even if it's just throwing up a "You rock!" screen after smashing all the buildings at the end.

Really awesome job :)

jelinib 2015-09-10 03:10

Muthafudgin' badazz monstuh! Slick animation too! Feels so satisfying to bowl a rock into dozens of people.

Not much to complain about here. Perhaps a proper ending of sorts when reaching the top. Might also have been cool if I could pick up two rocks--one in each hand--and throw them both at the same time, haha!

The vignette and music add to the mood. Good fun. Great game. Awesome job!

patvanmackelberg 2015-09-11 22:46

Great game! Loved lining up the guys and bowling em down :P
