the adventures of catboy in blobtopia

My dream of becoming a catboy is finally fulfilled. I do wish I could see how much health I have left though. Still, nice!

@joerenglish UI is also on the "includen't" list. Thanks for playing!

I beat it twice! I noticed a picture of Jeff Goldblum in your assets folder, but I am not seeing a secret.

The game is fast, but could use some more feedback. It also might be more fun if the blobs weren't SO accurate, but the speed you move makes up for that somewhat.

I like the almost floaty movement, and I think you got the balance of open space and tight corridors just right. It felt short, which I count as a good thing. To be honest you don't have a lot of variety going on here, so I think it was smart to keep it short.

Cheers!

@the-lame-brain Jeff! (He's hiding in all the pits.)

Note I had to install the libopengl0 package on my Linux Mint machine to get it to work.

I beat the game ! At the end I prefer to rush the coin of stability instead of stabilize the blob with the gun. Maybe some UI information with the player's life will be usefull ! Good job :)

GG! Its a very funny game. Nice job!

At first I didn't, but then I did. Cute and funny. Wish there was a health indicator.

Honestly this one is not even bad, I actually had fun playing it and it's quite impressive that it uses raw opengl despite the time limit

It is a fun game! As a feedback I want to point up that I was able to rush to the end without fighting. I don't know if it was the idea. Good work!

"includen't" :laughing:

It feels like there should be a way to get to the Coin of Stability in the last level, but I couldn't figure it out.

funny, very graphically intensive and a very surrounding experience on my ears. Loved it. Would play again sometime in the future

It's a lot of fun. Good job!

haha, this made me laugh. I'm super impressed you all made a game from low level openGL calls! You really made a game from scratch!

chesiq 2021-10-09 16:54

A game in a game jam using opengl calls.. Damn.. I feel very cheesy now for using unity. Fun game tho! I've enjoyed playing it.

rufson 2021-10-10 03:34

Hey, wow, I dit it! respect for C++ & raw opengl calls. I love cats and catboy smile!

nanolotl 2021-10-10 06:58

I find the character sprite very amusing for some reason. Nice job

Finally, a relatable main character in a video game. I usually just rushed around the map instead of attacking the blobs.

Wow, instant 5 stars for comedy, got a great laugh out of me and put me in a good mood.
