I see silly cat I click. Missed opportunity not to call the game "Commewter"! x)

It was very simple, just move and don't hit anything. I felt like the sensitivity was a bit too high, any light press of the keys would send Mewpo flying, I got used to it eventually.

Also when the music started I was laughing immediately DJKDS I did not expect the quirky-ass kazoo music

Very funny music and varied gameplay when driving the car. good work!

Fun concept. IMO hitbox need to be way tighter to the sprites. Frustrating to die to walking into the air above someone's head.

Reminds me a bit of my game from last jam (my first). One hit to restart and restarting fully from the beginning of the game, rather than the level, makes it very punishing. But I like the silly vibes and music.

i like it, the hitboxes seem wonky, the music unfortunately got annoying for me really bad, although i was digging it at first... that, when you are doing bad and then the music ticks you off.. yeahh, i got that feel,

i like the sillyness of it though a lot.. if the game was a little easier maybe the music wouldntve annoyed me so bad :/ .. altho the music was funny and a vibe

Collisions are a little rough, but a cool concept. I can see being able to make some really tricky levels with the right ideas if you try to turn this into something bigger.

I feel like the concept for this could be a cool mobile game concept, especially if you could do something like a level editor.

I get an error when I run it

Cute game, however the hitboxes on the human silhouettes don't quite work very well.

Cute but difficult! Good thing it was short 😅 Even then I wish it reset the current level and not the whole game. The music is amazing, obviously. Some animations and stuff would've been nice.

Funny idea. Unfortunately my Mewpo didn't make it home - the hitbox felt kinds unforgiving to me, but it was a fun challenge to try it several times. The background music is definitely a catchy tune btw. xD

Love the humor of the game. The mechanic really fits the theme. Fun and cool. However, the game contains a certain level of difficulties, which led the player dies easily and suddenly.

Charming little game, if pretty unforgiving, nice job here :)

Nice work! I had some similar issues with hitbox and speed of movement that made it less fun to play, but loved the idea and the music/sound was fun!

Nice!

nicolasjl9 2023-10-07 03:19

Nice!

Nice game, feel like i'm playing I wanna(hard but fun)

A very simple fun game! The hitboxes felt cruel but it all added to the terror

reivilibre 2023-10-08 22:53

As others said, the hitboxes were very cruel; polygons or ellipses would have been a better choice and not too hard to do in Godot but there's always something you learn for next time :).

Glad someone did this idea (I was thinking of doing something like this). The music and sounds are hilarious. Thanks for giving us this piece of art.

The fast movement and harsh hitboxes add to the feel of how weird and funny this game is. I was pleasantly surprised by the car parking level, I tried to be to clever and got bumped into a car by an invisible wall.

mahc 2023-10-09 22:22

this is iconic

the3rdhunter 2023-10-11 01:52

Haha. The audio is great. The hitboxes are cruel, but so is life. And just like life, this game ends quickly and abruptly. I like the twist on level 3. Awesome work!

rossk 2023-10-15 21:21

Brutal!

Absolutely beautifil, life-changing music (and death sfx). I like the variety in the levels, and the cruelty of being a commuter truly bears down on you when you realize you have to start from the beginning when you lose. I did run into an unexpected invisible wall during the car level, which felt a bit unfair, but maybe that's just part of the commuter life as well...
