Hehehe funny. Though what to do when get fat. I mean I saw the toilet but... Btw how do you do the pink icecream blob? is it mesh? sprite or what?

karatesnoopy 2018-08-15 01:31

Thanks. So when your fat, you just go to the toilet and use it and you'll get thin again.

The pink blob is a bunch of 2D rigid objects with a mesh render, mesh collider and shader that gives that appearance. Its a pretty cool technique. @rkhadder might be able to explain it better :)

One of the better games I've played here. You did a great job in many of the categories — graphics, audio, and fun, to name a few. The toilet sound effects and bunny face are impeccable. Great job folks.

@gamebuilder thank you!! 😁😁😁 i worked really hard on my art, so it means a lot to me that you like it! 😄

xxicegirl19xx 2018-08-15 10:47

@kptemre stand where the toilet is, and press e on keyboard, or b on controller to use

Nice game, Love how everything is balanced! Good luck, Don't forget to take a look at ours if you don't mind and see what it's like when we just focused on graphics in this game jam! Game Link: https://ldjam.com/events/ludum-dare/42/spacelab-42a

Nice little game. I think when the rabbit is fat he should have less ability to jump.

Nice game :) the visuals I dig.

I could only play solo and lost a bit of interest after some time, but I guess the game is way more fun in multiplayer. I really like your art style, it's unique and appealing. Congrats also on the fluid physics, it's a nice addition.

That's a pretty funny game. The full voice acting was great and the faces the bunnies make really sell the sounds. The game being pretty nonsensical fits well with the sense of humour. Having an ice cream making machine is silly enough, but then having it be this huge contraption that sprawls all over the place with pipes everywhere and you need to press 5 buttons in just random spots to get it to function is just crazy. Not to mention the operators of the machine are bunnies, because why not? All that combined is not too far fetched, but then you have the toilet that teleports around the map for no particular reason that is just the icing on the cake. The whole game is just whimsy stacked on top of whimsy which gives it a good sense of humour and makes it oh so charming.

The art is pretty reminiscent of Dr Seuss which also stacks onto the whimsy in a great way. The giant jar of cherries and the ice cream machine itself on the right are both quite a bit busier than the rest of the map. I think it would look a little bit better if some of that detail was spread across the whole scene a little bit more. Having fewer, larger cherries in the jar would have fit the art style a bit better.

Well done on the flowing ice cream. It looks great when it's flowing and when it merges with itself and when you eat some of it.

The jumps for the bunnies were pretty good. They were quick jumps and took you high enough. The jumps weren't the exact height of all the platforms (they were higher which is a good thing) so you had a bit of wiggle room with your jumps and didn't have to time them perfectly to get onto the platform. The double jump, however, was a bit inconsistent. I had a lot of trouble jumping to the top button from the pink pipe. It didn't want to let me double jump a lot of the time. The movement speed may have been a little slow, but it was okay. It was only ever really a problem when you went all the way up to the top right and then it was a long ways back down. Having a way to drop from there could have been handy, but that's minor. The speed of eating the ice cream and the amount you could eat seemed to be well balanced. I never felt super overwhelmed by the amount of ice cream on screen. I knew I could quickly gobble it up and be fine. Having one button for using buttons, eating ice cream, and using the toilet was very simple to use, but it did cause some issues when you wanted to use the button and couldn't because there was some ice cream nearby that you were trying to eat. Maybe you want that as part of the game that you have to clear the ice cream before you can use the buttons, but maybe something to think about.

@solrun , thanks for all the kind words. The red buttons actually do get disabled (they go gray) when the ice cream hits them. After eating, they light back to red.

the game is quite funny. I really liked the graphics and it's "ridicoulusness". Nice thing to make a multiplayer, I guess it's the default mode even.

For me the most difficult part turned out the first phase where you have to push all the buttons as it's not so obvious how to get on some platforms and the bunny slides from some of them. :wink:

Anyway nice entry, congrat's!

i just wish i had friends to play this with

but seriously, the multiplayer is a sweet addition to this game!

ratstail91 2018-08-31 04:55

It's so dumb I love it.

I'm not sure having a toilet in the same room as an ice cream machine is very sanitary...

A pretty good game: funny, nice SFX, pleasant visuals, certainly an unusual concept.

furiouswitch 2018-08-31 21:22

I absolutely love it! Great sounds and animation and along with the graphics you created quite the aesthetic. Humor and innovation are the top points in my opinion. And yes it's true that the toilet is the best part of the game :D Wish there was some use for the produced ice cream though.

Congratulation on a really funny game :)

Very funny game, I laughed with the sounds!! I only miss the goal of the game, Ive been 15 minutes creating ice creams but it doesn't happen anything, maybe Ive not reached the goal. Whatever, its a very good game, keep on it!!

jordantanner 2018-09-01 21:04

Hilarious! Is that an audio recording of your voice? How do you win? Interesting game, I may have nightmares now... ;)
