Waw hahahaha, what a fun game! I like drawing games and was good! Maybe the wolf was a bit hard hahahha! I speed up my mouse and I couldn't beat him, my max score was 9... I don't know if there is an end, if there is one, please let me know that!

Gj, in overall was so fun!

There's no real end - and for what it's worth, 9 is a really good score, I think 6 is my own top sccore

Prolog, CHR, Snap, what kind of witchery is this?! btw I dont get what i need to do. Can I only draw lines? When does the checking happen, why all checking does is delete my beatiful painting..

Hi kuviman. Yes you can only draw lines. The checking happens when you stop drawing (a pause of 2 seconds I believe). If your beautiful drawing is deleted that's because it's not good enough to be a house for the little piggy. Have you tried tracing the example house? That'll give you an idea of how to draw them and a piggy house should then appear. And yes, Prolog, Snap and CHR is complete magic!

pbm - I'll add better instructions to the LDJam page

Good concept, but the execution is rather poor. The music is jarring, and the drawing mechanic breaks at times. Sometimes all of the lines I drew would jump to the top right of the screen for no reason. With some better graphics and improved drawing, it would be great! Can't wait to see what you do next jam.

@paulbrownmagic I rreported in several places games not loading, but it was my local cache.

I like the concept! At first it was chill and I was exploring how bad I can possibly draw while still being recognized, and all of a sudden I was a bit overwhelmed and my piggy was gone. Only downside I would say is that it appears to be somewhat laggy as I kept playing for a while.

What a cute little game this was! I experienced the laggy parts that some has mentioned, but I enjoyed the gameplay too much to care. Simplistic artstyle, but fitting. A very fun game, well done!:)

Made it to 19 max houses. That was fun. some lag issues and the music was a little painful with my headphones. However there was a lot to like. Drawing is fun. I thought it was funny that wolf set off dynamite instead of blowing the houses down. Good job.

anne-ogborn 2019-10-09 13:48

Yeah, welcome to game jam - guess the blow animation was hard. and yes, it's laggy, the back end server has to work really hard.

Fun game but quite laggy in the HTML version, especially when draw more than one house at a time. Good audio sound effects, but maybe spawn the houses right after they are being drawn would help the game move faster.

Hey, did a playthrough of your game and wanted to share the video with ya! Totally unique of anything I've played yet, haha!

Thanks for the playthough @jake-marks ! Yes, our front end is a bit of a crude Snap! game. Sorry you had trouble, I think you popped it into dev mode.

i got real excited for this, but i was disappointed

(1) the audio is horrible. its too loud and its very grating. im surprised my ears didnt bleed.

(2) i liked trying to draw houses, but my drawings keep disappearing and nothing else happens. for a pig that needs houses you'd think hed be a little less picky (also i expected him to say something when a house wasnt good enough)

(3) the concept is cool but i didnt have fun with the current implementation

(4) itd be really cool if it used your drawings to make the house, and distorted your house image to match the user's drawing XD (i know i know, you probably wouldnt have time for that in a jam)

(5) also, this happened while drawing with a touchpad: ld45-three-little-pigs-line-bug.png XD

overall i think its a cool idea, with a bit more work you could have a solid mobile game on your hands (id probably play this on my phone when im bored waiting in lines)

anne-ogborn 2019-10-16 07:21

You're right about the many rough edges - the house is moved and resized to match the drawing (wasn't actually that hard). If we work on the game more we'll move away from the Snap! front end.
