Seu game é bem legal e com os graphicos bem bacanas, mas sua jogabilidade é meio confusa e eu não me adaptei com os seus comandos. É um jogo que combina perfeitamente com o tema, e achei bem criativo!

Very clever, and good gameplay. I can see this getting bigger with more variety and polish. One thing, you should ditch the run button: it's just needless bloat.

Really like the strategy-game style group-up commands, clever idea, solid execution. Nice work!

altega 2018-12-04 06:31

hmmm...not sure if it's just me, but the links aren't working

jevgeni-orehhov 2018-12-04 08:09

Sometimes i missed the button i wanted to use. Maybe it would be better to group the keys closer to each other. Overall nice idea and executed very well. Go on and develop it further for more gameplay!

Control scheme was a bit overwhelming but swapping between the three guys was a blast ;). Good job!

@altega Hi, are you getting an error on the itch.io site or do you mean you can’t reach the site?

legavroche 2018-12-04 12:54

@goatboatgames @jevgeni-orehhov @earlybard Ahh.. yep the controls were one of our biggest worries while designing the game, we’ll try to improve upon it in a post jam version. Thanks for playing!

Your game is very cool, I really liked the concept. I played the Html5 version, the only downside for me was when I died with my first character I lost the control of the others.

gebowunjo 2018-12-04 16:52

The game is nice ! The concept is good =D needs some polishing but it's a very good proto ! Well done !

miracl 2018-12-04 19:43

I love the idea and I enjoyed my playthrough, great job !

sockyman 2018-12-05 02:23

When the first bodyguard dies you can't control any more. Other than that it is a cool concept.

myalias 2018-12-05 03:14

@sockyman @lucecyl Thank you guys we realized agent switching doesn't work for numpad.

justalocalhero 2018-12-05 03:43

The character swapping is a great mechanic. It's a really interesting the way you shift importance onto an npc and make the player expendable. This game subverted a lot of expectations: moving towards bullets, jumping on grenades, and so forth. I could see something along these lines making a really great full game. Well done.

coda-highland 2018-12-05 04:09

Go figure the VIP has no sense of self-preservation and is so self-important you can't tell him not to go somewhere. XD

legavroche 2018-12-05 04:42

@justalocalhero thanks for the encouragement!

@coda-highland :) Glad that was evident haha

northerndevguy 2018-12-05 04:42

Concept is really good, music and art was awesome. Just the controls needing some love is really the only feedback, great job.

publicidadeba 2018-12-05 12:40

Well done, very smart use of the theme and good mechanic overall! 5/5 theme.

baesama 2018-12-05 16:27

Really cool game ! Really funny to be able to save Trump or put bomb next to him (oupsi) ! Great job

disperse 2018-12-06 02:46

2:12 was my best score so far. Fun and well executed!

pellanor 2018-12-06 06:41

Really fun little game! I enjoyed sending my agents to their doom.

sky-coding 2018-12-06 06:52

I made it to about 90 seconds. Really fun idea! I had some trouble with space bar registering, it seemed it only worked intermittently and kept failing me when I most needed to pick up and run with a bomb!

wyatt 2018-12-06 07:27

Cool concept -- lots going on right from the start made it difficult. Consider easing into it more with rising difficulty. I know it's inevitable, but I personally don't love mix of politics & games parody or otherwise...

awix 2018-12-06 15:47

An interesting game with a kind of mechanics. I put a rating) Please rating and me, thanks in advance)

legavroche 2018-12-06 16:31

@sky-coding ahh, we noticed that in our playthroughs as well that there seemed to be a delay in letting users instantly pickup and drop the bombs. We will try to iron that issue out in a postjam version. Thanks for playing!

legavroche 2018-12-06 16:32

@wyatt - that’s a respectable opinion, and thank you for giving our game a try despite that!

myrrhe 2018-12-06 21:13

That was fun ! The graphics were pretty good, as well as the sound.

The difficulty was a bit unfair sometimes though.

co181127 2018-12-07 02:00

what is bodyguard, a good theme ,i like this

tabitha 2018-12-07 02:33

Was super confused at first, but after reading comments I realized I had missed the swap between 3 mechanic. Super glad I played it again, really funny concept and execution. Nicely done!

jmarkohun 2018-12-15 14:26

Nice one! Some polishing are needed (with texts and UI) but really enjoyable
