The body guard is fun to control and role play with! At one point, a trophy did spawn inside a wall that I couldn't' get.

The body guard is fun to control and role play with! At one point, a trophy did spawn inside a wall that I couldn't' get.
i know for the wall spawn its one of the 3 bugs i wanted to get rid of. for a quick fix for this i made trophy spawn each 20 seconds to make sure you could get more and more trophy
Bugs: collectable spawn in walls, running effect not working as expected, and game over not triggered every time
To be honest, I needed 3 Attempts:
First: O Cool, there is the bodyguard, and he always follows me... Ups Game Over? -> This was a fan.
Second: Okay, this is not the bodyguard... looked inside a house by the fan
Third: Okay, after 5 Trophies there is really a bodyguard ;)
Bodyguard mechanic is good fun, will take a while to get used to and be able to use it effectively. Bugs noticed as above but did not affect gameplay.
Haha controlling the body guard was really fun! Such a simple feature and yet it improves the game a lot. The only problem is the trophies spawning inside walls, I think by the end of my run I had 3 or 4 trophies inside walls. Nice game nonetheless!
When the rating will be over i will create a new version of the game with all the features i didn't got time to do. Also get trophy outside of walls ;)
Nice spin on the theme! That little beat in the music sure is catchy!
I don't really understand how the game over happens, when you are too much surrounded by fans ? When you aren't able to move anymore ?
Neat idea, liked the body guard mechanic especially with how awkward controlling him was.
I cheated a little for the game over. When your charracter is stuck with more the 5 collision point in a certain range it trigger the game over. I was running out of time to get a better game over detection
It took a while for the bodyguard to appear. I managed to outrun all of my fans until I decided to stop and find out what would happen when they caught me.
Funny take on the theme. I liked having a bodyguard. Congrats!
Really good idea. I think the world is a little to big, the game starts really slow. Some items were spawning in walls and the controls for the bodyguard are a little difficult to get into. But the idea is really good and i had some fun holding back the fans :) Good job!
I like the bodyguard a lot :) fun game but its not very innovative. Good submission!
A very interesting concept. The bodyguard really helps. I got 18 trophies, but some of them spawned inside of walls. Also, I don't think the energy drinks did anything.
I love it! The blurred tile graphics may not go well with the pixelated characters, but that's okay. The vertical speed of the fans is too high in my opinion, but maybe i'm just not that good at avoiding them :) Nice take on the theme!
I included your game in my compo video : https://youtu.be/WCYF7ixLX8k?t=696 if you don't know french you can ask me the translation ;)
thanks for the review . pas de probleme je comprend parfaitement le francais
I liked this. I managed to get to 40 points. I thought the music was pretty good. I liked how the game gave you a bit of time to figure it out before the guard and the fans started to come out a lot. The bug with stuff spawning in walls was a little annoying. Controlling the guard was a little hard since sometimes you would run into it or have to go back to get it out of a building but that was also kind of fun.
This is a neat little game~ The music is pretty good, and the 'bodyguard' mechanic works nicely. There were a couple of times when items would spawn inside the walls, but other than that, this is a pretty solid entry~
