Pretty fun! But I think if the input key can be changed ,it would be more easier to play!

This was a fun game and the menu system (being out in the hallway) was a cool idea. The controls were awkward. I would have preferred spacebar to puff and move with WASD instead of S being the puff key. When bottles got into the corners they were almost impossible to get out because I would just shoot them straight up into the air where they'd fall down again.

Nice work on graphics and a very innovative concept.

Interesting and funny gameplay! Nice work on FX, but you could maybe reduce the bottle's spawn cooldown.

What a goofy concept, I really liked it. Aside from some movement tweaks others have mentioned, I think it has a lot of potential as a fun multiplayer game. Especially if you could square off in teams, trying to launch your trash into your opponents tank or something!

Really unique idea, nice work!

Very unique concept but also kind of exhausting. The controls do need some work because spamming W and S felt kind of weird and unnatural although having four players on the same keyboard does limit your options.

Cute game and very cute fish. By setting players to 4 and just spamming the puff buttons (down, s, k and 5) you can go on forever without needing any friends..

This is a pretty solid entry. I worry I don't have much to add to what's already been said here. A four player game is really ambitious, and I don't think I've seen anyone attempt it in Ludum Dare before (lots of 2 player games, though). It feels a little difficult to get the cans out of the tank. They tend to hit against the wall and bounce back in. I get that this is part of the challenge, but it might help the game feel if the walls of the tank were sloped or something, to make getting the cans out easier. Also, some sound effects would go a long way.

Overall, this is some fun, zany action. Good job.

Those guys really love drinking their soft drinks huh? Did you know you can start the game with 0 players? You just watch the tank get filthy lol. Very interesting and funny idea for the game :)
