Nice idea :smiley:

I found it a bit difficult to always manage a quest in time, but that was an additional challege. Graphics and music fit the style really well.

Great job!

fun to play. But I don't understand why I had a gun in the last level?

@spartacouscous must have gotten mixed with the wrong crowd

This game strongly resonated with me, as I also bump into people like that, complete with both of us flying one body height into the air.

So yeah, I loved the take on the theme, and the way you conveyed the narrative in more abstract terms. I noticed the big twist in the game's objective on my second playthrough and I liked it a lot. The graphics worked well with it too, it felt like there was a clear distinction between stuff that lives with the bright red-ish colors and stuff that's background. FOR RENT pay me 50€ to get credited as the musician since he just doesn't care (who sounds like a friend of guy who can't settle on a name you're so done with him) made a fitting background tune too, works very well with the theme of time. All around a very stylish entry!

I really liked this. I thought the graphics and the audio was top notch also the way it controls is very good, although I had some problems controlling the speed while in mid-air, but that was probably just me. I liked how the bumping to other people was done and the choice between levels how to spend your life was great. Who knew playing 23.5 years in a row wouldn't get you any new skills? :D

A fun little game you made so kudos to you!

5 stars all around. This was incredible. There was a moment where I started getting juggled by the bullies, and I just watched my life tick away while I'm just trying to get groceries for this person. I saw the desperation in the little character's eye as it hit them... "I spent 8 years of my life getting knocked around while running other people's errands..." Genius use of the theme and a brilliant jam. My favorite by far. For what it's worth... I used the amount of free time that earned by playing video games... Hahaha. Too real.

Great idea and realisation, I loved pixel art and the nervous manoeuvrability and gameplay. The storytelling and characters are cute, I liked to kill that seemed like my colleagues and children.

I couldn't find the patience to try all possibilities I guess but even after playing video games for 27 years, I've learnt nothing. I've tried a few times but the only thing I could learn was hangin with punks and using this guns... :) It also seemed like helping others was useless. A great lesson of life XD

Great job, especially for the very cool music and visuals. I wish there was a bit of hazards, but time itself was a good metaphor. Idea for a post LD: make the wife and old people killable ahahah

also: SLAYERRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRR!!!!!

Good job congrats!

The art was great! A fun game to play

hunttis 2019-05-21 14:55

That was incredible. I loved the idea, the implementation of the idea and just the progression that you had in the game. The controls were perhaps a little fast, but it added to the hurry you felt in the game. The graphics were great too, and the audio!

One of my favorites this LD!

Definitely a good game other than the slippery player movement that made platforming extremely difficult

aurel 2019-05-21 16:58

That took a little bit of time before I figured that you actually had to help people and bring them the items... that wasn't immediately obvious because I just exited every level as fast as possible on my first playthrough. Secondly... you should consider using a button other than Control for shooting, simply because if I'm on HTML 5 and I shoot and press up to jump... CTRL - W closes the tab. This happened to me 3 times...

@aurel bro ...thanks for the advice... i....
