Awesome little game. Took me a little while to figure out the controls and mechanics (was fun tho)

Not a whole lot to do but not bad!

Abit difficult to work out how the game works and its controls. Wasnt too sure of what the end goal was.

I had fun playing, but it was a bit difficult to figure out how to play, or the goal of the game.

Very cute egghead with a helmet! I think this game is deceptively simple, there's definitely more than meets the eye: the fact that Patty is actually protected from the projectile and falling boxes from the top, but dies if knocked over, and that the boxes are too heavy for Patty to push but the round projectiles can be used to push the boxes. For something of a backup game, great work!

game is not loading for me :(

Thank you for the comments! :D This game is made in the last of the Jam hours, so i did not enough time to fix and polish this thing. Several things does not work the way i plan to, but while having a simple idea and "must get some published before dead line"- keep me motivated even on with this simple concept and seeing things working up some way keep doing it up. Among the next version update there shall be some bug fixes and the coin sine effect (which effect was not doing smoothly while created on the developing stage)

To games work properly on the Scirra arcade, you might need to use different browser; f.e. it works on the Chrome on me

Neat little game you made there in only a couple of hours! I like the physics element, makes it a bit more complex than running back and forth to dodge the cannon. A couple of the sound effects are a bit loud and bitcrushed though.

Interesting game. I was a little puzzled at the beginning, trying to figure out the controls and mechanics. After I understood them it was a fun experience. Those damn cannonballs are hard to avoid when you are on top of blocks! :laughing:. It was nice to also have these audio effects. I felt that the background was missing though. Nice game man. :thumbsup:

Quick reminder to get more players: Use a thumbnail for your game. Otherwise your game is presented with this grey box. Some great Games are not played because of a missing thumbnail ... You can still change it by editing your submission page :)

Nice job! It was a bit hard to figure out but once you get the hang of the controls it's a good bit of fun! As @pilarius said, adding a thumbnail for your game can attract a lot more players!

The mechanic for this game was really interesting, but including something at the beginning for the player to know what the end goal of the game could be helpful. The sound of Patty falling over can get a bit jarring after a while, but besides that you've made a pretty interesting game.

terristen 2020-04-24 03:08

Never really understood the mechanics of the game. For something you pulled together late, I commend you.

hiisileiri 2020-04-24 14:30

Thank you for the all comments! Thanks for noticing about the "thumbnail image": I thought i had it correct, but it still has not completed correctly. The property setting was found on the "mygame" ->edit-> and the "side of the "cover image" heading. In any case, i'm on creating the next build up of the next version of this game and about to submit that on the Scirra arcade soon!

Gj keep it up

leetchi-heda 2020-04-24 21:35

nice little game, a bit hard to figure out what to do at the beggining but once you get it it's fun! well played

vectorwolf 2020-04-25 11:49

Though I didn't really know what to do in the beginning, it was quite fun in the end. Nice one!

trexxak 2020-04-25 12:25

Really like the concept. Impressive work for 4 hours, keep it up!

blubberquark 2020-04-25 12:50

I like the graphics. The biggest problem is probably the slow pacing and not knowing how long an infection will last. Not sure if it's randomised, or if there's a way to infect cows.

adonisdevs 2020-04-26 04:38

This is pretty cool! I think that it might be too hard though because the bullets shoot too fast, so it is almost impossible to dodge them. Getting coins is also very hard, but this game is still really neat :D

theceases 2020-04-27 18:33

A good game, but I'm not sure what the end goal was.

gamescodedogs 2020-04-28 14:04

Thanks for the game. Not sure what is the objective :)

disperse 2020-04-28 14:08

My high score is 1! That's a strong helmet you have there! The cannonballs are most dangerous rolling around on the ground where you might trip over them.
