Your simple, canadian animation style graphics are extremely pleasing and enjoyable to watch. I had a lot of fun trying to save the planet by tossing a remote! haha

Really cute game. The art-style is amazing, and while the gameplay is quite simple, I had fun with it. Amazing work, keep it up!

michaeltwg 2017-08-01 08:17

Wow, destroy the internet, that's harsh. I do love the animations and the game simple and efficient.

Cute graphics! I included it in my Ludum Dare 39 compilation video series, if you’d like to take a look :) https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8Qv2KH3BQm4

Wow! A very well-put together game that plays very well, as well as being short and sweet. First perfect score given! :)))))

codey 2017-08-02 00:18

Funny little game with nice art! Our game is also about saving the planet! https://ldjam.com/events/ludum-dare/39/extincti

indiemaniac 2017-08-02 00:37

like the art nothing more to say :)

willdata 2017-08-02 00:54

Really cute! The animations were really nice and it was just a nice simple game!

kakureta 2017-08-02 01:50

Funny and fun to play, with nice style and simple gameplay. Good work

dene 2017-08-02 08:34

Really cool game! Animations are outstanding :)

huvaakoodia 2017-08-03 07:41

I killed the internet *and it felt good!*

Splendid animations (why no graphics rating?), pleasant enough dexterity challenge and ah... ???

There's not much more here, but sometimes little is enough.

klekky 2017-08-03 07:41

The best thing about this game are the animations. It's a neat little game, good job on this one!

oab 2017-08-03 07:49

@huvaakoodia I accidentally click opt-out graphics. Thanks for remind me

flobar 2017-08-03 07:55

Wow some good animation work there. Really like the transition from the logo to the hand. I also really like the art style. Fun little game.

mrsylar59 2017-08-03 07:55

I liked the animations and the graphics, they are amazing and suit your game well! I had trouble getting the green blocks when there was red ones overlapping. I had the feeling that I was on a green block and it was the red one under it which was activated. Really nice game overall though :)

robinerd 2017-08-03 08:10

Sweet little game! Gameplay was easy to get into and quite novel. Just fun for a while but that's fine. I liked the simple but consistent audio and graphics, which felt well polished. Feels like you scoped your project just right to get it together with a great polish!

zee 2017-08-03 08:17

Loved the animations! A little too simple, but still fun for a quick play-through.

lockons 2017-08-03 08:17

Nice game. The animations were pretty nice, and the gameplay was pretty decent, though it felt clunky at times. Personally, I think it could've had a little more to do with the theme on top of just the premise, but good game nonetheless.

pixelbukkake 2017-08-03 08:23

The animations are fantastic, thats exactly the movement i make, to switch off the TV^^ Main criticism is that its to short!

megalink 2017-08-03 08:24

Great game! I love the animations and art, also quite a humorous concept. Good job man!

arctic-allosaurus 2017-08-03 08:25

I liked the game! It was fun and the animations were amazing

risingoat 2017-08-03 08:27

Absurd game, in the good sense of the word! Nice approach to the theme.

hishicorne 2017-08-03 09:10

Cute game fun to play, a bit hard and a bit short however. Good mesage behind the game. Thank you for making this game ! :)

bartol44 2017-08-03 09:59

Hillarious idea, graphics, sounds and animation fit together very well. For me, it was a bit too easy. Nice job!

verysoftwares 2017-08-03 11:59

Very much a fan of the animation style. This game made me smile.

baconinvader 2017-08-03 13:57

The gameplay is simple but responsive, but what really steals the show is the art style. great job!

ynk 2017-08-04 08:08

The graphics are great! But I didn't really feel the "Running out of power" theme :/

diptoman 2017-08-04 08:13

So much love put into the animations. Everything was really fluid, really dynamic. The feedback felt great! The gameplay was a tad simple, but everything else more than covers up for it. Slight mishaps with the gameplay where some red and green blocks aligned and started moving together. The sfx and music fit in really well. Loved destroying the appliances with my remote control, ahahaha.

peter-sheehan 2017-08-04 08:24

Love love love the animations for this. It really shows that they were your focus, and I totally think the skill with which you made them kept my attention the game. Good amount of challenge, and even though the gameplay was pretty simple and "been-done," the artwork and character of the appliances really shines through. Also your description is hilarious. Great job!

apple-dash 2017-08-04 08:57

Quite fun! Love the animations and the idea. However, gameplay doesn't feel precise enough (maybe, you should have made sprites slightly smaller, but made detection zones the same, so it would be more forgiving), so some misses feel like game's fault, not player's. Plus, when the green bar is on top of the red one, the game registers that as a miss. And music gets too repetitive really fast. But despite it's problems, I still loved the game.

wisstopher 2017-08-04 09:26

This is a marvelous little thing, I love the animations! :D

alwaysinbeta 2017-08-04 10:10

Great stuff. Very fun and funny!

failedstarfish 2017-08-04 10:59

Really liked that art style and animations, gave the game real character. A very simple game but still fun to play.

ericquagmire 2017-08-04 11:31

Perfect animations! Really fun game)

toadietechnika 2017-08-05 05:31

I pity those appliances, and even the internet haha. The internet in reality is hard to destroy (not literally, just as if we want to get away from it), so as the game itself, really good to point out! The game's too short, but the animations and gameplay was great. You had a nice presentation of the story which also brought out the mood and humor of the game itself. Nice game!

xykvy 2017-08-05 21:37

I really loved the art style of this game! It's cute and short, love it.

cursetats 2017-08-06 06:28

Very good sound, small story and cool graphics!

Loved the way how we close electronics using a remote

LOL!

tolmera 2017-08-06 18:18

Hey @oab - [you put your game on my list to play](https://ldjam.com/events/ludum-dare/39/end-of-time/whos-not-had-any-love-link-your-game-for-me-to-play), and [I streamed the play-through on Friday](https://youtu.be/-DEvWdMWCKk?t=4788), The game was a bit shorter than I expected, but it was fun. I thought about it a while after playing it and realized the the style of animation was actually really hard to pull off, and that you had done an excellent job! Thank you for the game. :) I learned something by playing it and appreciate it a lot.

goloso-games 2017-08-06 20:02

Nice funny little game. A little bit short, but it's quite challenging. Art is really great.

cttfow 2017-08-08 16:05

Interesting game,I found the colors you had chosen to be maybe a little too similar, not sure if that was on purpose or not. It's a nice little concept and the sounds are pretty cool!

mgpxl 2017-08-09 05:44

Very funny concept and I love the cartoon style art and animation. A very simple but fun game.

codechomper 2017-08-11 13:49

I Recently played your game during a live stream at your request. [here](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=sEKsM8vugRs) .

I loved the graphics. The game play was well done too. It felt like a decent progression of difficulty as the levels went on. (spoiler alert) The last level made me laugh. Great job.

if you haven't already please give my game a try [Zombie Power Station](https://ldjam.com/events/ludum-dare/39/zombie-power-station) HTML5 Thanks

ganbaregameskyle 2017-08-13 02:35

This is a perfect game jam game. Usually not a big fan of leftist propaganda, but this game is well-made enough that I don't care if it is full of liberal lies.

2017-08-16 16:21

TREMENDOUS animation! I wonder what you can make without time constraints.

oab 2017-08-22 00:03

@pablodap more weird animations. :) Try another game from LOWREZJAM here. https://itch.io/jam/lowrezjam2017/rate/168179
