Not really sure what I'm actually doing - the controls seem fairly unresponsive and I feel I have little impact on what happens. And everything is extremely sporadic. The pigs sound like they dog-toys in a blender.
I suppose it "does" fit the theme though, I just wouldn't exactly call it a game.
Nice! Very funny game to play. A bit repetitive.
I haven't figure out how to play it, it just keep crashing..
In my opinion the most prominent problem with your game is, that it doesn't feel responsive. The consequences of ones actions aren't well communicated to the player. It goes as far as having the feeling that your actions don't have any impact at all (as someone earlier stated in the comments) or are very unreliable.
I suggest to improve the "communication layer" of this or future games.
But maybe it's just a bug with the click detection and everything is just fine ;) Whenever I clicked the guys and they died in a poof of magic it felt responsive, but I couldn't help the feeling that it just happened unreliably.
I liked the graphics and sounds though! It worked just fine on my windows 8.1 machine.
Probably the game I will give the highest "Humor" rating to today :D . Nice game, more gameplay features would be nice though. Like different kind of peasents. (music would be nice to)
Seems pretty easy. Pig snorts get obnoxious pretty quickly. I did like that you had little audio bits for everything we're doing in the game. Threw an exception on exit.
Runs well on my Mac! I agree it's a bit hard to tell if you're doing the right thing, but once you figure things out it's fun. Occasionally my grown pigs would spontaneously sink back into the earth instead of fly away.
Thank you all for the comments. I completely forgot about adding something to tell you when you're doing the right action :-P
I should have made the villains collider a lot bigger so that it would have been easier to get the hit on them.
Thanks for all the suggestions!!!
It crashes, and when it doesn't the play doesn't feel good at all, but it seems funny!
crashes for me (Windows)
Unfortunately I can't play, the game throws an unhandled exception as soon as the fork-guy touches the pig.
I guess that all the crashes on Windows are due to OpenAL. I'll try to fix that and release a new version for Windows as soon as possible. Thanks for reporting the problem.
I dont knew how it work, i keep clicking and nothing happens.
Pretty funny, if minimalistic. Would like to see those bonuses, that didn't make the cut. Sound effects fit well, but some music would be nice.
Interesting little game. I agree with what others have said, the controls seems bit unresponsive, and I wasn't entirely sure what i was doing at first...
Cool! I laughed playing this. Are the pigs... farting?
I love the cute animations, they make the game very appealing (even more so in the post-compo version). Also, gotta love the sounds, although they get pretty annoying after some time... Other than that, it could use a little more gameplay, but for your first submission, it's awesome! Good job! :)
Nice game
