Interesting twist on an old game
Hi ! I loved your game, despite not being able to complete it without making unnecessary sacrifices XD. I made a little review on youtube, you can watch it there : https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=AchJySVi-iA Thank you for making that funny puzzle game, have a nice day !
Interesting idea, and small enough for a game jam to be quite polished. Plus, the amount of levels was astounding!
Nice game! The only thing I can think of right now to improve it would be a reset button if you want to try to complete the level only using one grenade (if you blew up the wrong vehicle). Other than that, great game!
@satanos merci beaucoup pour le vidéo!
Excellent! I love the early level text. Seriously, if you removed the game play and just used your sense of humor to comment on everything that the player was doing, it would seriously be freaking GLORIOUS xD That said, the game play is quite polished and nice! Everything worked as you'd expect and though the design was simple, nothing felt lacking. Really, stellar job with this one! Keep it up :D
A simple and classic game idea with an interesting twist. Well done.
I killed no more people than necessary! Nice puzzle game and I would surely enjoy playing more levels :) The thing I definitely missed was a reset button though. I Made a mistake in the final level, and had to replay all levels to try it again ;) Oh well. Congrats on improving on one the best puzzle games ever made!
This is my kind of game. Good idea to have extra vehicles to destroy. A move counter and a reset button could make the game even better. Good work.
Hey, just letting you know, it works on Windows Phone :thumbsup: Other than that, it's a pretty standard traffic jam game, but with grenades. Nice Job.
Great take on the theme! I thought this type of game was completely buried in the early days of mobile gaming, but you managed to add an interesting twist to it.
The final 2 levels are crazy, I cheated for them. Too bad there is no restart button or level selection menu to give another shot at finishing them "the way it's meant to be played".
The pixel art is pretty good, the audio was nice but a bit too lively I feel to work as background music.
A pretty nice job overall, great level design in particular!
Okay, I'm looking at the amount of ratings this game has received so far, and it says "13" - holy crap, this game does *not* deserve to fail the rating requirement. It's so well done that it's hard for me to comprehend that it's a Ludum Dare title. Good job, mate.
Nice twist on the well known game mechanics. It would have been nice to be able to reset the levels.
The light music is a very funny juxtaposition with the reality of blowing up cars to get out of a parking lot. It's a challenging game, too! Great work!
Fun game. I could not find the optimal strategy for some levels. I destroyed 4 more than needed.
Very cool take on the theme, I love the music as well. I wish there was more consequence for cheating and using killing too many trucks :)
I agree with others about the reset button.
Nice job!
Pretty fun! I have really fond memories of playing this game (minus the grenade...) on long road trips. Trying to use only the one grenade really added a new layer of thinking to it. Nice!
Cool game, I love how you used the theme. The puzzles were interesting and I made it through without killing any more than needed.
I did used 1 more grenade than necessary...
Nice twist on the genre.
You also designed a lot of levels in 3 days.
Had a lot of fun kiiling humans instead of solving puzzles probably well done!
I had fun with the puzzles, the music doesn't really fit the game imo, but it's not a big deal. Great job!
I killed two more than necessary. Shame on me.
