Good job! I love the sounds <3

9 km! This game is terrible. Terribly funny that is! I laughed so hard at the sound and graphics! :-)

The walk cycle, oh man! The coughing in the middle of that "soundtrack"?! Then there is never any water to find so you inevitably die of thirst.

Man, these background objects with the gadient fill tool, hillarious! How the backgrouds just change all of a sudden, without even connecting the moutains in the desert to anything! :-D

Awesome game, keep up the good work! :-)

** What I liked **

__ + __ Voice acting

** What imo could be improved **

__ - __ Pretty much everything else

** Overall **

I'd say more brainstorming will eventually lead you to a more promising idea. That said, the game is playable and there's a beggining of gameplay, good job for that ! Thanks for the game !

I got to 12.5km then the game crashed. The voice acting was very amusing and made quite a difference to the game.

Such a shame, that sounds don't work on Edge for some reason. But anyway, the rest works just fine (well, it crashed once, but other than that it's fine).

Well, at least the idea's nice and fitting, I suppose. But the rest just needs a lot of work. It could've been a neat little clicker, but it's just too unfinished and has a lot of waiting for procedural generation to spawn you thing to do.

Good job! Keep going and you might have a good game!

Whistle while you work/walk! The audio did a great job of injecting humour into the game, but I found that detracted from the choice of theme and setting. I would also have enjoyed more choice in the objects you can interact with.

Awesome, love how you have all the different bars (hunger, thirst, etc) that you need to control to get far! The audio is hilarious. My game crashed as well, at 14.5 km, but the sound continued to play.

I was on the desert map, and it appears it was going to change to forest, but the bitmap has 0 width and height.

Anyways, really cool game!!

I enjoyed this quite a bit, as it's a departure from many of the common themes I've seen in the jam. Managing the bars can become quite difficult, but doing so is pretty rewarding. Nice work!

Crashes pretty frequently. I never did see any pickups, so for me it was just automatic walking until it crashes.

dcrdro 2017-08-18 18:10

Heh, simple but pretty atmospheric game :)

The game crashed on my first go. I managed to die of thirst after 13km on my second go. The audio sound effect whistle/ little singing is so bad (interrupted by coughing :) ) it becomes good/funny. It's kind of the same as those Z-movies like Sharknado 6.

I don't know why this game is so fun. The gameplay is really stupid and still I cannot stop myself from playing it. :P Anyway I made it to 14.8 kilometers, now I'm happy! :D

I absolutely love the "music"! Definitly makes the game super funny. I like that you have to clear your throught once :D (Are you whistling the communist internationale once?)

The graphics are funny, too. I like that you switch from desert to forest in an instant.

The gameplay is really fun (and I still don't know why). But I wish the distribution of cacti and apple trees was a bit less random. I died once because I didn't find a single cactus and once because I didn't find a single apple tree.

The game also crashed several times, not sure why. Once at 8.3 kilometers and twice at 10.5 kilometers (browser-independent, I was playing it on Firefox and Chrome).

By the way, thank you for your comment on my video. I did not know the game Mini Train. It's funny the graphics, gameplay and controls are so similar to my game, even though I did not know Mini Train.

13.8 km. This game was funny and entertaining!

drprettypatty 2017-08-19 21:34

First walk: 8.5k then crashed. Second walk: 10.5k then crashed. In my mind, it's a feature and not a bug-- Noanne tripped and crashed, and who could predict when that would happen! To add to the others' comments about the funniness of this game, it's hilarious that she nonchalantly bounds about 200m with each step. Must be the technique where she walks with the same arm and leg moving forward :P Nice work!

Got to 14.5k on my first play through. Didn't see anything for picking up food the whole way though? Was surprisingly entertaining. The audio was hilarious. The walk cycle animation didn't seem to loop correctly and could use work since that is the focal point of the game.
