Pretty cute! Had trouble really figuring out what the controls were and yet after playing for a while was still able to get pretty far.
I would have liked to see instructions in game. but overall nice work.
nerf stairs
Yeah, all that art work, for me only to be "ruined" by trying to jam it into the 2 keys bit. The controls were *very* strange.
For the stairs, you need to be brave! Launch off them and then change direction mid-air. :)
Hi, i liked this game the controls were tricky but i soon got into it, the jump down stairs was fun tried that many times and happy once i got it :)
overally nice game and will play more later :)
Okay, it’s funny and the art is well done, but the controls really ruin it. Even after 5 minutes I still feel like I’m hitting the keys at random and hope something good happens. It may be part of the experience but it’s frustrating.
Did anyone manage to get down the stairs (and not die) ? Weird game...
Check out Digicross, playable in solo/multi/coop :

i like it!
Ha, a Davros costume is pretty ambitious, nice work there Stavros.
This game is nuts. Nice soundtrack and totally whacky controls were fun to experiment with. I made it down the stairs but wow it wasn't easy.
One small note, it says press any key to retry but I think only spacebar worked for me.
Real funny! :D the controls were hard though, 2 buttons don't work very well with this, but I guess the hard controls was one of the main point, like QWOP. :)
Made it to the door, don't really know how ^^'
Really cool concept, but I couldn't figure out how to control him. It's too bad because the rest of the graphics and audio and such were excellent.
Pretty funny game! Actually managed to get the hang of it and escape. Love the whooshing sound effects!
Argh, sorry guys, you're right!
"Input.GetKeyDown(KeyCode.Space)" should be:- "Input.anyKeyDown"
I think this fix is acceptable in the Rules, so I'll upload new versions with that fixed.
In the start room, try pressing Z a few times. He should flip from going UP to DOWN (isometrically) each time. Pressing X flips him from LEFT to RIGHT (isometrically).
It's meant to be a bit confusing, but I didn't intend it to annoy people as much as it did. Looks like Stavros isn't the only one with major butthurt. Eh, ToaPhoenix?
Sorry, apologies to ToaPhoenix.
The controls DO suck, and I'm to blame for that. Not TaoPhoenix's fault for making perfectly valid criticism. Sorry.
Post-Compo Changes:
- fixed anyKey by changing prompt to space (and esc for menu)
- found Physics code that should be in FixedUpdate() instead of Update() - some of you may have had crazy Physics going on dependant on your computer speed!!
Looks good, but really hard to control...
ahAHAaah, don't listem to them, the controls are great! They add to overall hilarity! No wonder daleks are so frustrated all the time.
I menaged to finish it, not sure how, but I had a great time, thank you. :D
I had no idea what the difference was between Z and X haha. But I made it to the door without popping!
HAHAHA
This game really made me laugh!
How the character shake inside this "thing";
Funny game!
I'm enjoying the party. Stavros is an animal!
Getting down the stairs seems too much of a learning curve. It's SO hard. Even with the hint.
The guy looks really silly, in a good way. The sounds are hilarious, too!
+1 for Doctor Who reference.
Hahaha cool funny game :) i loved to make him fall, nice fun comining weird controls + fun physics.
A bit easy once you get it but that was nice !
I did it! I got to the door without dying!
But again... I'm not quite sure why would anyone want to go to any party in such a silly, impractical costume.
somehow physics based games with clunky controls are allways fun
