Very good concept. I quite enjoy ur game

goloso-games 2017-07-31 10:13

I like the idea, it was fun ! It could be great if we can sit up when we want (or I didn't found how to do it).

quixx 2017-07-31 10:22

@golos-games its up/w-key. Updated the controls in the description :)

tuism 2017-07-31 15:31

Hahahahahaha! I love it! Genuinely made me chuckle :) though of course we should not buy so much into sexist stereotypes :)

There are some control choices that I think could be improved, for example the running forward - should I even need to press a key for that? I feel like automatically running would be a good thing.

Then the getting up from the chair requiring W is not awesome. Pressing S again should work, and much better than right now.

Wasn't sure how to "get bags". And also feel like it should have something to do with reaching your partner :)

This game speaks to me because of my hatred of the mall.

Very fun concept !

thorneto 2017-07-31 18:43

Not a big fan of endless runners but the chairs were something new. I agree that it might have been better as an auto runner though.

Haha yeah you need a lot of energy to go shopping with your girlfriend. Really cool concept I can relate to. Would have been cool with audio though and mall music. Good game none the less.

perdugames 2017-07-31 21:31

Cool graphics, I like the color palette and the clothes when they fly.XD

mrserp 2017-07-31 23:38

I like the pairing of endless runner with the mall setting. The chairs definitely added a nice extra mechanic to adapt to.

This is super cute and definitely relatable. I got a score 84 - that's good, right? :D

I like how intuitive the controls are, and I love the concept - intriguing and quick to get its message across.

My only advice is to make it harder. I didn't run out of breath once. Also, my score never seems to change from 84, so I'm not sure what influences score.

Overall, 10/10 would play!! :D

tyler-miller 2017-08-01 03:41

Definitely agree with @tuism on the gameplay controls! Overall though I had fun playing and thats the goal, good job!

quixx 2017-08-01 10:28

@angela-he I Think you found a bug there? The game gets pretty hard over time and your score should be much higher. But thank you for playing

damoy 2017-08-01 20:06

Very good game, enjoyed the concept, the controls, the style, well done !

pedro-romero 2017-08-01 21:08

A funny little game. I could spend hours trying to resist more time. I need a little polish, things like a "last high score" mark that appears in the last best distance or things like that.

baski 2017-08-01 21:19

Cool game my best score is 1250 :D Really like it. Good game for mobile .

iseeicy 2017-08-02 18:04

I was initially turned off by the graphics, but the controls and game-play made that not matter at all. I love the concept as well, which I think has been probably the most creative use of the theme I've seen so far. I wish it had audio or even just music though.

Great game!

deathray 2017-08-03 01:14

Very cute graphics, and funny take on the theme. More difficult than I imagined. Who is "this guy" and why do I need to dodge him?

ajayajayaj 2017-08-03 01:17

I really like the concept, I agree that it would be really cool as a mobile game. It just needs some music and SFX. Great job!

robber 2017-08-03 20:06

Very original game, my best was 12431. too bad there was no shopping mall evelevator music soundtrack..nice artstyle, compact, simple and solid entry!

2017-08-06 06:40

Fun game. But why doesn't it have any music or sound?

badly-drawn-rod 2017-08-06 09:09

Man, my girlfriend is tearing up that mall. I hope that I'm not going to have to pay for all of that. I'm too old for this - I need to sit down! Why can't she just go shopping without me, or go online, or just leave me in a [pod](http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/blogs-news-from-elsewhere-40609115) where I can drink my latte and play games?

quixx 2017-08-06 09:31

@eDiamonds I didn't have the Time at the end of the compo to Add Sound.. but it is defenetly added in the post ludum dare version I am working on

vivoubos 2017-08-06 12:50

Haha, so realistic game! xD

Very good work, I love the way how the character is exhausted! So bad that there is no music :(

Congrats

pedro-cipriano 2017-08-11 10:55

Very good job! I liked the idea and how you made it. I would make the game a bit easier in the beginning and make it harder as you progressed.

freedom-is-slavery 2017-08-17 11:00

Cool concept. Great in terms of humour. Some audio and some game balancing could have made it much more enjoyable

2017-09-04 16:26

Challenging game! 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=gtKz5DBYziE
