Man, what a silly little game! Graphics, musics and theme all work hand in hand to bring a big smile to your face! The controls are fun in their clunkyness, though they still did not feel as "swipey" as I imagined the situation.

Mouse was a bit delayed but very fun game overall. Killed 3697 crabs, got 6672 bites

Good job, big smile :)

The mouse / hand interaction is supposed to feel a little sluggish. Moving the mouse only adds force to the hand, it doesn't directly control it. (It would be way too easy otherwise)

Thanks for the good feedback!

Very fun game with nice graphics and music !!

IMO the theme is is not integrated in the mechanics but just a game mode.

I managed to kill 13217 crabs with only 25304.. Won't like to be the man stinged by those crabs ^^

Good entry :)

The feeling is so satisfying! Sweeping all the crabs away. Awesome!

So funny :D Good idea that fits the theme very well :)

Ahahahah! very funny xD That would be some cheap brothel Lol And I must say damn those crabs xD But I think the hand could move more faster and more responsive, the fact that I am in pain and need to clear them off :p Anyway overall, good concept and well done. I liked the art too and good music choice with nice sound effects. All the best and pls feel free to play and rate my game: https://ldjam.com/events/ludum-dare/40/split

This game should be on itch.io... badum tss ;) It's way too hard but could be fun on mobile.

A strange game indeed. To make a NSFW game like this does take a bit of courage. The delay in the motion of the hand with the mouse was probably a design choice, but it felt odd. I played on Linux and it seemed fine. Feel free to play and rate my game: https://ldjam.com/events/ludum-dare/40/crosstalk

...and I was thinking it was a game at the sea shore. Cohesive artwork and sound. The theme doesn't really appeal to me though.

Please rate our game too: https://ldjam.com/events/ludum-dare/40/kinball/ Cheers!

Man what a game! Too funny. The art could be better keeping the silly theme, but overall it was really fun. The mouse is difficult, but you can't really take that away or else it'll be too easy.

Maybe like dx0ne said it could be ported to mobile, it can be a fit.

The silly music also helped with the mood.

Overall really fun!

Hahahaha fantastic!! We were on the same wavelength!! Gosh that sure gets manic with all those crabs! I love that they are all little sea crabs, lovely catchy music too! I quite liked the delay on the hand swiping, but boy I thought head lice are bad, never would I want crabs hahaha! I think you win with grossest use of the theme!! :D I seemed to last a lot longer on the hard $5 brothel spend than I did on the classy $500 spend, which I found a little strange.

What a cool game! Great concept, very funny. Nice smooth motion event with tons of crabs on the screen. Music adds to game play as well.

Congrats on a very well done entry!

Funny game! I included it in my Ludum Dare 40 compilation video series, if you’d like to take a look. :) https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CFjCDu50TQs
